So, it’s totally valid to wanna check the authenticity of a BAMS (Bachelor of Ayurvedic Medicine and Surgery) degree, especially when you’re trusting someone with your health! If a certificate image looks sketchy or just doesn’t sit right, here’s a few ways to give you a bit more peace of mind.
First thing, you might wanna start with the basics by asking the doctor in person. Sometimes a direct question about their qualification can reveal a lot. Sure, it might feel a bit awkward, but a genuine practitioner should be able to provide some clarity — maybe even further docs, like their registration with a state or central council. Check if they’re registered with CCIM (Central Council of Indian Medicine), it’s the body that officially registers all Ayurvedic practitioners in India.
Now, if the picture is fuzzy or vague, ask for another copy or to just see it up close. Universities granting BAMS degrees usually have contact details, and you can reach out to them directly to confirm its authenticity. Some of the institutes have this info online too. Okay, but remember, not all universities are super quick with this stuff, so patience might be needed.
Apart from that, consult the State Medical Council if they’re registered or any Professional Ayurvedic Associations. A responsible doc will likely have affiliations or membership in professional bodies, giving you some assurance about their credentials.
When you’re talking or meeting this practitioner, trust your instincts too. If something feels off, it probably is. Oh, and if you have other healthcare folks you trust — like another doctor or therapist, bounce off your concerns and see if they have any insights or know the practitioner! At the end of the day, ensuring you’re in capable, accredited hands, absolutely crucial. I hope that helps, and you find just the right practitioner for your needs!
