Area of specialization:
I am mostly someone who leans deep into how diagnosis *actually* feels in Ayurveda—not just textbook but the day-to-day kinda thing, where naadi and prakriti don’t always give the whole story and you have to *feel* through layers. I work a lot with chronic cases—gut, fatigue, pain, metabolic shifts—and I rely on detailed clinical observation, like subtle symptom changes or dosha movements across weeks. I do regular followups, I document everything… maybe a bit obsessively, lol. But it helps—especially when the healing feels slow or gets stuck halfway.

I also do hands-on Panchakarma work, and I actually enjoy the whole process—snehana, basti, virechana, all that—cos you see transformation in real time. When the right therapy meets the right patient, it’s beautiful. That said, it’s not mechanical—I really try to *listen* first, get where they're coming from, cos not everyone’s ready for intensive detox. Sometimes, they just need basic rasayana or calming routines for a while. I adjust things case by case, even when it means reworking plans mid-way.

I work well in busy clinics, love learning from peers, and I’m pretty good with patients who come in confused or skeptical—like, I get it. Healing takes trust. And yeah, I guess I try to be that steady person ppl can rely on... even if I don’t always get it perfect.
Achievements:
I am someone who honestly didn’t chase awards but when I got the Jivaka Award from Himalaya Wellness—it kinda meant a lot. Not just marks or toppers stuff, but they saw my focus on keeping Ayurveda real n grounded. Later, I was also given a Certificate of Merit by Tribhuvan Holistic Health Foundation, which yeah, felt special too—mainly ’cause they care about community health n integrative care, which is also my vibe. These moments pushed me to stay consistent n curious, always learning.

I am someone who kinda learnt early that real clinical exposure teaches more than textbooks ever cud. I started off at Shri Jayachamarajendra Ayurveda and Unani Hospital in Bengaluru—worked there for like 6 months and honestly that phase really grounded me. Not just in pulse reading n prakriti stuff but actually *watching* how classical chikitsa gets applied in everyday cases... seeing ppl walk in confused and leave feeling lighter. That stuck with me. Then came my 2 months at NIMHANS—wasn’t sure what to expect but it changed a lot for me. Psychiatry was intense in a way I hadn’t felt before. But what I appreciated was getting to see how Ayurveda n modern psych can sort of... meet halfway? That training made me more sensitive to things like stress layers, sleep burnout, panic loops, psychosomatic stuff. Helped me see the mind as more than manas n doshas—it’s also how ppl hold pain, stories, trauma... all of it. After that, I got placed at K.C. General Hospital and Govt Ayurveda Dispensary in Hirehalli, Tumkuru—both for 2 months each. One was more urban fast-paced, the other super grounded and rural. The combo gave me a balance—urban diabetes cases, rural joint pain legends, random infections, chronic skin, seasonal fevers, fertility troubles. Each space forced me to slow down, listen more, tweak things when standard protocols didn’t fit. Then came the Epidemic Disease Hospital rotation in Bengaluru... different vibe altogether. Suddenly you're not treating *one* person but thinking in terms of clusters, outbreaks, risk zones. It pushed me to think of Ayurveda not just in terms of herbs or rituals—but as a public health tool, too. How can we prevent spread, support immunity, work with communities in crisis mode... that was new for me, and useful too. All this—it shaped how I practice now. I don’t just write a herb list and send ppl off. I try to read their patterns, ask weird questions, make sure they’re heard properly. My approach is deeply classical but also very real-world, cos real patients aren’t in textbooks. They’re in front of you, with layers. I try to meet them there.
