About Dr. Rakshika

For Dr. Rakshika, the dream was always medicine. Growing up with a father who was a pharmacist, she was surrounded by healthcare from the very beginning.

But life had a slightly different plan.

“I didn’t get into a medical college… but I got the opportunity to become a veterinarian. And I chose it.”

And somewhere along that journey, it stopped being a second option—and became the right one.

Today, just a year into her professional journey and focusing on ophthalmology, she works in a space that’s both delicate and deeply impactful—restoring vision, relieving pain, and quite literally helping animals see the world again.

Because when it comes to eyes, timing is everything.

“One of the most impactful cases for me are ophthalmic emergencies—especially ruptured eyes. They’re intense, emotional… but when you’re able to save the eye, and sometimes even restore vision—it means everything.”

That moment when a pet can see again, when the panic turns into relief: that’s what stays.

But like every vet, her days are also filled with quirks that make you smile.

“I had a pet who hated going for walks. Wouldn’t move at all. But the moment he came to the hospital? Constant pacing in the OPD. Full energy.”

For Dr. Rakshika, the job isn’t just clinical—it’s emotional.

“Getting to love and cuddle these fur babies: that’s my favourite part.”

Looking ahead, she’s still exploring where the journey will take her but her foundation is clear: careful observation, early detection, and compassionate care.

And the belief she carries with her?

“Believe in magic, and you’ll see it happen.”

Because sometimes, in medicine—especially when a pet sees again—that’s exactly what it feels like.

Meet Dr. Rakshika at our Domlur hospital for gentle, attentive eye care that helps your pet see the world clearly again.

Had a really positive experience with Cessna Lifeline Veterinary Hospital. The doctors were extremely caring, patient, and knowledgeable. They took the time to properly explain my pet’s condition and treatment plan without rushing. The staff was polite, responsive, and handled pets with genuine compassion.

The clinic is clean, well-maintained, and equipped with good facilities for consultation, diagnostics, grooming, and rehabilitation. What stood out most was the attention and comfort given to pets during treatment — you can tell the team truly loves animals.

Highly recommended for anyone looking for trustworthy veterinary care in Bangalore.

We rushed our 10 yr old male GSD with bloat to Cessna on the night of April 29th as this was the only vet hospital open 24/7 for emergencies in Bangalore. The vets and staff immediately conducted all the necessary tests to determine that it was GDV and performed Gastropexy surgery at 1 am after explaining all possible outcomes for our pet. Professional and polite vet staff. The place has everything for a pet in distress and I highly recommend this place. We were also allowed to see our pet pre and post surgery for a few minutes and that was reassuring. We got regular video and picture updates about our pet's recovery, consultation from Dr Padam the next day via a phone call about our pet's vitals and discharge was also smooth with guidance on post operative care by the on duty Vet. Thank you for saving the life of our pet. We can never forget this.

Our Pepe crossed the rainbow bridge today.

He fought bravely through a sudden and serious illness, and despite every effort, his body had been through too much. We are grateful for the love, care, and compassion shown to him by the doctors and nurses at Cessna who stood by him till the very end.

Our sincere thanks to doctors Parth, Amruth, Malavika, Adarsh, Ramesh, Pawan, Devaraja sir, and all the staff across IPD, Surgery and the rest. Your kindness and care gave our boy a huge fighting chance and we remain indebted.

Run free, sweet boy.
You were loved beyond measure, and you always will be. 🌈
