Dr. Yashaswi Guntupalli
Dr. Yashaswi Guntupalli is a dedicated physician, storyteller, and USMLE aspirant who believes medicine is more than just science—it’s a deeply human experience.
Her fascination with the human body began in school, but it was her grandfather’s battle with cancer that truly shaped her path.

Carrying forward her mother’s unfulfilled dream of becoming a doctor, she pursued medicine with unwavering determination.
A natural storyteller, Dr. Yashaswi has always found solace in writing, weaving emotions and experiences into words. With Breaking Down Through, she brings together her own journey and the voices of her peers, offering an unfiltered glimpse into medical school—the struggles, triumphs, and raw reality behind the white coat.
