Dr. Ranjit Mazumdar

Age is only in the mind................

Dr. Ranjit Mazumdar graduated from Delhi University in 1974 and joined Army Medical Corps soon afterwards. He served for over 3 yrs in the rank of captain in a Field Hospital near Indo-China border and Base Hospital, Delhi. Subsequently he worked in Hindustan Copper Limited and Central Health Scheme in Delhi before coming over to United Kingdom.

He has been a General Medical Practitioner in Peterborough since 1985, starting his own venture in a partnership in 1993 when Welland Medical Practice came into existence and developed into two distinct clinics under NHS with over four and a half thousand patients list. He is married to Swapna Mazumdar and they have three grown up children, two of whom are in Medicine and the second daughter is a broadcast journalist in BBC who recently covered war zone reporting in Afghanistan with British troops.

He has great enthusiasm for adventure travels and has undertaken scuba diving in Great Barrier Reef in Australia and white water rafting in Bali, Indonesia (though chickened out of joining parachute training in Army!!). He loves all forms of music, art, literature and drama, though very little of those hobbies he can fulfill in busy working life. Although he had no formal education in bengali language and never lived in Bengal, one of his short stories was published in a well known bengali children's magazine 'Sukhtara', while he was still in a school in Delhi.
Dr Mazumdar has been associated with BCA from its inception and endeavored to contribute whatever way he could in its long journey into present day organization.

Dr Mazumdar's philosophy in life is ' its not an option to grow old but to stay young at heart is an option, as long as you can look at people, the nature, the sky, the forests, the mountains and the oceans with the same romantic amazement as you did when you were ten years old!!
