I am an MD Scholar in Panchakarma with an MBA in Healthcare Management, kind of balancing both worlds in my head even when they feel a bit far apart on some days. My clinical training keeps me close to core Ayurvedic principles—dosha assessment, panchakarma protocols, understanding how the body responds to cleansings—but my management side constantly nudges me to think about systems, patient flow, efficiency.. all that behind-the-scenes stuff we dont always talk about.

I focus a lot on evidence-based integrative care, trying to make treatments more practical and outcome-oriented rather than just nicely written on paper. Sometimes I catch myself re-checking a plan twice because I want it to align with both classical reasoning and real healthcare operations, and yeah a typo or misplacd comma slips in somewhere!

Patient outcomes matter most to me, and the MBA part helps me see how even small changes in communication or workflow affect the whole healing process. I’m still learning how to merge the clinical depth of Panchakarma with the logic of management, maybe a little clumsy at times, but it makes the approach more complete!!
Achievements:
I am someone who has always leaned toward writing and expresion, and I actively participated in extempore, essay and poetry competitions—won a few too, even if my notes were sometimes all over the place. Those contests helped me sharpen quick thinking and clear communication, skills I still use in healthcare when I try to explain a complex idea without tripping over a sentence!!

I also wrote a book called *Canopy of Words* in January 2023, a small but meaningful milestone for me. Putting that book together needed discipline, lots of late edits, and maybe a couple of typos I spotted too late… but it shaped my voice and my confidence in sharing thoughts openly.

These literary and oratory experiences blend into my professional life, giving me stronger presentation skills and a more thoughtful way of connecting with people—even if a comma or two goes missng now and then.

I am a dedicated Ayurvedic medical professional who kind of grew through different corners of the field—clinical practice, research work, and even that slightly hectic corporate healthcare space. Sometimes I look back and think the journey moved faster than I planned, but each phase pushed me to understand Ayurveda in a more grounded, real-life way. My Compulsory Rotatory Internship (BAMS) from March 2023 to April 2024 gave me the first real hands-on exposure. Long rounds in OPD/IPD, taking patient histories, figuring out diagnoses based on Ayurvedic principles, assisting in Panchakarma… a lot of running around honestly. I learnt how small symptoms change the whole picture, even when I was still fixing my handwriting on case sheets or mixing a comma somewhere in documentation. That period built the base of my patient-centered care, even if I doubted a few choices here and there while learning. From July 2024 to March 2025, at Research Ayu Company, I moved into a very different space—literature review, formulation understanding, collecting data, and supporting evidence-based validation of Ayurvedic concepts. Sometimes reading the same paragraph twice because I thought I missed a tiny point, but that analytical side helped me understand Ayurveda beyond the opd desk. It made me appreciate how classical texts connect with modern research, even if I accidentally typed a few weird spellings in the reports!! Then at Jyovis Ltd (July 2025 to December 2025), I stepped into corporate healthcare. Documentation, clinical advisory roles, program coordination, and talking to multiple teams in one day… a bit chaotic at times. But that role sharpened my communication and showed me how healthcare operations actually run behind the scenes. I learnt how patient engagement strategies work practically, not just as a line in a training module. Now I am working as a Consulting Doctor, focusing fully on Ayurvedic consultation and holistic wellness. My routine includes detailed patient assessments, personalized treatments, lifestyle and diet counselling, and ongoing monitoring of outcomes. Some days I pause mid-sentence to re-think a plan because a patient mentions something small but important. I try to keep the approach clear, ethical and evidence-informed, even if my thoughts wander for a second while typing fast. My aim stays simple—to blend classical Ayurvedic wisdom with practical, patient-friendly care that actually fits into someone’s daily life, not just the textbook version of health.
