“Medicine requires
precision and restraint.
Writing gives me the space
to think beyond the chart.”

Rupinder Singh Brar, MD,

Cardiologist, Author, Poet, Historian

Rupinder Singh Brar lives in two de
manding worlds and refuses to dilute
either.

Trained as a critical care cardiologist and serving in senior medical leadership roles in California, he has spent decades working at the sharp edge of life-and-death decision-making. That experience informs his parallel intellectual life as a writer and public thinker, where questions of ethics, justice, memory, and moral action take center stage.
