Dr. Bhakti Kulkarni
Experience: | 1 year |
Education: | Maharasthra University of Health Sciences |
Academic degree: | Doctor of Medicine in Ayurveda |
Area of specialization: | I am mostly focused on Ayurvedic diagnosis & treatment—I mean the real classical kind, not just symptom-matching or general detox. I work deeply with the Samhitas and rely on the older methods like Dashavidha & Ashtasthana pariksha to actually *see* what’s going on. Like, not just what the disease looks like on the outside but what’s moving underneath—dosha shifts, dhatu depletion, agni crash... that kind of stuff. Every patient’s different anyway, and that’s what I try to reflect in my plans.
Usually I build a combo of herbal meds, Panchakarma if needed (but not just for the sake of it), food guidance, lifestyle calls—all tailored. I don’t go for ready-made protocols or trendy stuff. Just whatever the condition calls for. It’s mostly about fixing root issues rather than throwing herbs at symptoms. I tend to see more chronic cases, but honestly, it’s not about what stage the illness is—it’s whether the person’s ready to go deeper into real healing. And that’s where I can help. |
Achievements: | I am done with certified Mid Health Service Provider training—hands-on stuff, not just theory—and yeah, that kind of opened up my work into maternal care more than I expected. I got to run a bunch of ANC and PNC camps, kinda chaotic at times, but honestly that’s where you *learn*—real people, real issues, not textbook. Also worked as a COVID yoddha during the peak days. That was a whole diff level of intensity... PPE suits, long shifts, crowd management, patient care—whatever came up, we had to just handle it. |
I am someone who got drawn to the roots of Ayurveda early on—and I mean the real roots. I did my BAMS and then went ahead with an MD in Ayurvedic Samhita & Siddhant, which kinda anchors everything else in Ayurveda. That branch—it’s not about ready-made formulas or new trends... it’s the core of the science. The texts, the logic, the why behind every treatment choice. Studying those classics in-depth, like for real—not just reading but *sitting with* them—helped me see illness and healing in a totally diff way. I don’t rush to symptoms—I look at patterns. Dosha shifts, agni, dhatu level disruptions. That’s where most stuff starts anyway, right? My work is mostly about making sense of all this and then crafting something that actually fits the person—not some textbook idea. It might be herbal drugs. Or detox like Panchakarma if waste’s blocking progress. Or diet tweaks, sleep resets, whatever it is. But it’s not random—it’s based on a core logic that comes from the Samhitas. And that’s where I lean every time I feel stuck too. Over time, I’ve seen this approach work—chronic skin, digestion probs, women’s cycle stuff, metabolic crash cases—people usually come in tired, done with surface fixes. That’s where Ayurvedic diagnosis makes the real difference. You catch the *why* under the flare-up. Sometimes results show fast, sometimes slow, but they hold better coz they’re built on the real cause, not just symptom-bandaids. Also, I don’t just see this as treatment work. It’s guidance. Prevention. Learning how not to fall sick the same way again. I honestly feel like we don’t talk enough about that part of Ayurveda—it’s not just rescue mode, it’s a lifestyle reset... if you let it be. I'm still learning myself—every patient teaches something. But yeah, staying grounded in the texts, letting the old principles guide the now—that’s what keeps the work real for me.
