About Dr. Shifali Gupta
Dr. Shifali Gupta is a Clinical Geneticist and Lead Genetics Specialist at PRAGMA Hospital, Bathinda. A Gold Medalist in Medical Genetics from PGIMER Chandigarh, she combines distinguished academic credentials with deep laboratory expertise and a genuine commitment to making genetics accessible to patients and clinicians alike.
Her clinical strength lies in her command of the full genomic pipeline — from primer design and wet lab protocols through to data analysis and final clinical correlation. This laboratory grounding gives her a particular advantage in interpreting complex reports: she understands not just what a result says, but how it was produced and where its limits lie. She also runs GenTalks with Dr. Shifali Gupta, a YouTube channel that brings genetics education to the public in a clear, approachable format.
Areas of Expertise
Genomic Laboratory Proficiency
Comprehensive expertise in NGS, Sanger sequencing, and MLPA — from wet lab protocols and primer design through to data analysis and variant interpretation.
Clinical Variant Interpretation
Expert correlation of complex genetic data with clinical phenotypes, resolving diagnostically difficult cases that require both laboratory understanding and clinical judgement.
Prenatal Genetics and Carrier Screening
Specialist counselling for high-risk pregnancies and carrier risk assessment for familial genetic disorders — supporting families at the point where the stakes of genetic information are highest.
Cytogenetics and Chromosomal Microarray
Advanced chromosomal analysis to identify structural variations and copy-number changes, complementing her molecular genetics expertise.
Skeletal Dysplasia and Dysmorphology
Systematic evaluation of rare bone growth conditions and congenital malformations — conditions frequently missed without specialist genetics input.
Genetic Counselling
Skilled in navigating the psychological and medical complexity of hereditary disease management — ensuring families receive clear, actionable guidance alongside clinical care.
Why Consult Dr. Shifali Through Genetidoc?
Families in Punjab, Haryana, Rajasthan, and across North India have historically had very limited access to qualified genetics specialists. Dr. Gupta is already serving this region in person from Bathinda — her Genetidoc presence extends that commitment nationwide.
If genetic testing is needed, Genetidoc arranges sample collection from the patient’s home or nearest clinic, with processing at NABL and CAP accredited partner laboratories. Her YouTube channel — GenTalks with Dr. Shifali Gupta — is also a valuable resource for families beginning to navigate a genetic diagnosis.
