Experience: | |
Education: | Rajiv Gandhi University Of Health Sciences |
Academic degree: | Bachelor of Ayurvedic Medicine and Surgery |
Area of specialization: | I am a BAMS doctor but my path also took me into emergency and critcal care medicine, where I did CCM, PGDEMS and FCCS (USA). That training gave me a diff outlook—most of my regular clinic work is Ayurveda, using classical assesment, Panchakarma, herbal meds, diet and lifestyle corrections for chronic and lifestyle issues like thyroid, PCOD, obesity or skin problems. But when acute or life threatening case walk in, I know when to apply modern emergency protocols without wasting time.
For me that balance is key. Many patients feel they must choose either Ayurveda or Allopathy, but in reality healthcare doesn’t work like that. For chronic metabolic imbalance, herbs and detox like Virechana or Basti can give lasting results, but in hypertensive crisis or acute cardiac event you cant just wait for slow remedies. My background in both streams help me combine them safely and keep care patient focused.
Every plan I make is individual, based on prakriti, the disease stage, and urgency of the condition. Sometimes it is only herbs, sometimes IV fluids and monitoring, sometimes both in sequence. I don’t see the two systems as fighting, rather completing each other. My specialization is not one or the other but knowing how to integrate them so that patients recover with confidence, safety and long term wellness. |
Achievements: | I am a gold medalist in Anatomy, and that really gave me a solid base in understanding the human body deeper than just books. Later I went into certifications like ACLS, BLS, and PALS.. those courses kinda pushed me into thinking how to act fast when seconds actually count. I also trained in Fundamental Critical Care Support, which sharpen my handling of emergency and ICU level cases. These skills dont stay on paper, they show up in practice, making my care safer, structured and more confident. |
I am someone who believe that real healthcare is not about choosing Ayurveda or Allopathy but about knowing how both can work together. In my practice I keep that balance practical—Ayurveda takes the lead in chronic, long-standing lifestyle disorders where natural therapies, herbal protocols, Panchakarma and diet correction show results that last. Allopathy I reserve for acute emergencies, trauma, critcal cases, those moments where stabilizing the patient first is the only safe choice. For me, that mix is not confusion, its clarity. Most of my Ayurvedic work is with thyroid disorders, PCOD, skin diseases, metabolic issues like diabetes, obesity, plus other lifestyle related conditions. I use classical methods like prakriti-vikriti assessment, detox therapies, evidence-based herbs, and diet/lifestyle corrections. With this approach I have seen patients gain real relief, not just short symptom control but deeper improvements in health and routine living. On the emergency side, my training in critical care exposed me to tough scenarios—sudden cardiac problems, severe infections, respiratory failures, trauma—and I learned how structured protocols and quick actions save lives. That pressure sharpened my judgement and actually help me in calmer clinic OPD practice too, because I know when not to delay, when safety must come first. I try to make patient care transparent. I explain what’s happening, why lifestyle correction is needed, where Ayurveda will help most, and where Allopathy can’t be replaced. I want patients to feel guided not pushed, to see that these systems don’t fight each other but can strengthen the outcome when combined properly. Each case is different—sometimes a herbal plan with diet works on its own, other times emergency support with modern drugs and monitoring is unavoidable before shifting back to Ayurveda. For me the focus is never textbook alone, but the person in front of me. At the end I want to help people not only treat the illness but build a balance in body, mind and daily life that last beyond the treatment.
