Having been blessed with a compassionate heart, Jinita decided to become a Doctor as she was driven largely by values instilled in her and her faith in helping others regardless of circumstance and therefore making lives healthier and happier.

Dr. Jinita Majithia hails from Mumbai and completed her education from there itself. She has done her M.B.B.S. from Rajiv Gandhi Medical College, Thane and DNB in Radiology from Lilavati Hospital in Bandra. After that, she has worked for three years at Breach Candy Hospital and currently she is working as a Consultant in Tata Memorial Hospital which is a Cancer Institute.

Jinita belongs to a middle-class Gujarati family having business and nobody in her family has a medical background except her elder sister who is an ophthalmologist. But everyone supported them in studies, especially her mother. From a very young age, she had gone through a rough phase due to financial crunches in the family and used to study from second-hand books.

Jinita says everyone has dealt with the covid pandemic in some or the other way. Jinita switched her job just before the pandemic started and it was difficult for her to get to know people as everyone was wearing masks. She was also worried for her family members because of their vulnerable age group. She was upset for not meeting her family for months but being a doctor she had to work for society at large by providing them medical aid.

Jinita says generically, education has always meant to study, read books and pass the exams. But it is important to realize that there is something beyond the books that needs to be taught. She thinks that what you become is not from the books, it's from the outside. You learn not only from your own experiences but also from the experiences of people around you.

Jinita’s mother is her biggest role model as she has worked tirelessly, managed to give good values to them and been a provider. She considers her sister to be her second mother for being caring towards Jinita. She looks up to her husband as a role model as her whole perspective about life has changed because of him and he constantly motivates Jinita to move ahead. Other than family members, she gets inspiration from her ex-bosses.

In her free time, Jinita likes to read articles about science. She is a fan of yoga so she practices that and does cycling.

If Jinita would have a time machine, she would like to go back to her tenth grade and relive those moments again with her friends and teachers. Other than that, she wishes to go back to her P.G. days because she thinks that apart from learning, she could have done a lot more things which she wants to pursue now, if given a chance.

Jinita advises parents about today’s generation that you need to educate your kids, especially girls, from a very young age about sexual abuse,  good and  bad touch and to be more open about sex education to let them know about the right and the wrong acts.

The success-mantra that keeps Jinita going is helping the people in the best possible way that she can. The patients sitting outside her hospital motivate her to work even harder.

Jinita gives her message to future generations that, be open and accepting to change. Parents always teach you the correct things but also people that you meet in life and try to learn from other’s mistakes to go a long way ahead.
