Doctor information
Experience:
4 years
Education:
SDM College of Ayurveda and Hospital, Udupi
Academic degree:
Doctor of Medicine in Ayurveda
Area of specialization:
I am mainly focused on Panchakarma therapies—it's what I trained deep in and keep circling back to, ‘cause nothing really replaces the depth it offers. Over time I’ve kind of shaped my clinical work around three major areas—orthopedic conditions like frozen shoulder, sciatica, arthritis etc... skin diseases like eczema, urticaria, even chronic fungal infections... and then allergies, especially the sneaky skin + nasal ones that keep coming back no matter what ppl try.

I don’t just pick a therapy and apply. Every plan I make depends on the doshic picture, chronicity, and strength of the patient. Sometimes a Basti is enough. Sometimes you have to clean deeper first. And yeah, I use classical Ayurvedic meds and formulations, but often tweak them based on the individual’s prakriti or current state, especially when dealing with stubborn skin cases or long-term sinus troubles that shift with seasons or food.

My aim really is to treat *why* the issue’s there—not just what it looks like. Whether it's chronic pain, joint degeneration, or allergic flareups, I try to find where the imbalance *began*. That part makes all the difference.
Achievements:
I am not someone who chases awards or recognition too much—honestly the most real achievement for me? when patients actually start getting better. Like really better. When that joint stiffness eases up or a skin rash finally stops flaring or someone says “I feel like myself again”—that’s the stuff that stays with me. Every recovered case means we did something right together. Not always easy, but when it works... that’s the part that makes all the day-to-day worth it.

I am an Ayurvedic practitioner who kinda learned the craft the long, everyday way—through patient after patient, sitting in clinics, working under experienced hands, getting my hands dirty with real-life cases and not just textbook patterns. For 8 months I served as a Junior Consultant at a well-known Ayurvedic hospital, where I got to actually manage cases—not just watch from a distance, but do things, try things (under supervision of course). That’s where a lot of my early confidence came from. Then for 2 years, I closely worked with a senior Ayurveda physician in private practice—and honestly that was a different kind of learning altogether. You pick up the art of diagnosis by observing—not just Nadi and Agni but the way someone talks about their symptoms, what they’re *not* saying, how their skin looks, eyes move, etc. Those details stay with you. That phase taught me how to *see* the patient, not just treat the disease. Most of the cases I handled were chronic or recurring—things like acidity, IBS, asthma, PCOS, knee pain, even weird fatigue cases where all reports show "normal" but the person just doesn’t *feel* normal. I used classical Ayurvedic meds, Panchakarma where needed, and yeah a lot of lifestyle counseling too. Because honestly, without changing food habits, routines, stress patterns... most conditions just keep looping back. My focus is always on figuring out the root imbalance—not just what’s bothering someone today but what’s *feeding* the issue over time. I try to make patients understand Ayurveda not in some heavy theory way, but like—“ok, this is how your body reacts when you skip meals or oversleep or push through burnout.” That’s where they start changing things on their own, and that’s when recovery actually sticks. I don’t chase fancy outcomes. I just wanna help people feel better in a way that *lasts*. That’s the kind of care I aim for—simple, grounded, and totally personalized.
