Dr Anand was born in the state of Bihar , India in 1946. His schooling includes attending St. Xavier’s in Patna for secondary education, St. Stephens in Delhi for education in physics, and Patna Medical College for his medical education. He has practiced family medicine and taught medical students in the UK since 1983.

Dr. Anand sees things from the patient's perspective. He resolves patient problems, not merely offers symptomatic relief. He sees doctor patient relationship as an evolving journey. His medical practice is not limited merely to the prescription of pharmaceuticals and surgery. It is holistic in nature including counseling, stress relief and complementary therapies. Dr Anand thinks that stress causes 90% of patient visits to the doctor. He believes that medicine without health is like religion without spirituality.

It is Dr. Anand who introduced SHEN to the use of HeartMath's emWave heart rate variability monitor for biofeedback in the stress management process.
