Dr. Abid Hussain Bhat—a cardiologist by profession, a storyteller by soul—grew up as the son of a simple shoe seller in Kashmir.
From the hum of a Zenith radio to the echo of hospital monitors, his journey carries the rhythm of two worlds—one of struggle, and one of grace.
Today, as Head of Cardiology at Ujala Group of Hospitals, he heals hearts with skill—and remembers his father with stories.
His words rise from soil and prayer, carrying the warmth of a mother’s kitchen, the silence of snow, and the eternal truth: that love, once given, never dies.
Born in the mud lanes of Khanpora, a little boy watched his father polish old shoes with the same devotion he offered in prayer.
Years later, that boy became a cardiologist—still polishing hearts instead of leather, still searching for the scent of home in sterile hospital halls.
