Some people choose one path. Dr. Kunjam Pooja chose them all—medicine, literature, art, yoga, environmental activism—and she walks each with equal grace. Her life is proof that when passion is your compass, you never lose your way.
Medicine as a Mission
For over eight years, Dr. Pooja has served as a Civil Assistant Surgeon in Telangana’s Nutrition Department, where her role goes far beyond treating illness—it’s about building healthier futures. In 2023, she stood at Vigyan Bhavan, New Delhi, representing Telangana’s Best Performing Nutritional Department, a proud moment that recognized her unwavering commitment to public health.
The Pen That Touches Lives
An author for over eight years, Dr. Pooja’s debut book, Art of Communication: 10 Keys to Change Your Life, launched at the New Delhi World Book Fair 2025 and was named one of The Literature Times’ “Top 10 Must-Read Books of the Year.” Her second work, Raising Kids, Raising Awareness, offers a blueprint for mindful parenting.
Upcoming releases include her manifestation guide and personal biography. Her books have traveled through fairs in Goa, Kolkata, Srinagar’s Chinar Book Festival, and even to London’s UK Book Tour – Word on the Water. Along the way, she has won the National Book Star Award, Eco-Scribe Crown, and Top 20 Authors of India recognition.
Wellness on a World Stage
Dr. Pooja doesn’t just talk about health—she embodies it. She is a 12-time Guinness World Record holder in Yoga (IYD 2025), with additional honors from the International Book of Records and Forever Star Book of World Records. Her holistic approach earned her the Doctor of the Year 2025 and Best Debut Author at the Nari Ratna Iconic Awards.

Husain International Award, honored as India’s Top Emerging Artist on World Art Day 2025, and awarded the International Brooklyn Excellence Award in Art & Photography. Her work has been displayed in prestigious national and international exhibitions, and she has walked the ramp as a Registered Model – Grand Iconic The Queen’s India 2025.
Healing the Earth
As Goodwill Ambassador for Prithvi – Women Climate Warrior Initiative, Dr. Pooja sees environmental health as inseparable from human health. She has led plantation drives, distributed over 200 jute bags, and advocated sustainability at events like World Environment Day marathons. Her green efforts have been featured in Ink & Insight Magazine.
A Voice for the World, a Heart for Home
From performing at Kala Sangam to speaking at the International Vietnam Summit 2025, Dr. Pooja’s presence has inspired audiences across borders. Yet, her vision is rooted in her community—she dreams of building a multi-disciplinary hospital and earning life coaching certifications to integrate mindset transformation into medical care.
The Foundation of Her Success
