Area of specialization:
I am mostly into GI disorders now, and honestly that’s kinda where my full focus lies—gut stuff, digestion chaos, those odd bloating episodes, recurring constipation, all that. I see so many people stuck in this cycle of acidity one week then loose motion the next—half of them not even knowing their Agni’s just all over the place. I usually start by figuring out where digestion actually broke—sometimes it’s liver dullness, sometimes ama’s just piled up. My go-to’s are virechana when needed, basti too if there’s deeper vata issue, but honestly even tweaking diet + fixing meal timing makes a huge diff. I use classical Ayurvedic meds mostly, but yeah I pair it with clear food protocols and small lifestyle fixes that stick. A lot of folks come thinking it's "just gas," but often there’s older layers—wrong combinations, poor metabolism, gut fatigue. I’m really not about just patching symptoms. I like digging in until the whole system starts feeling light again. When gut clears, so much else gets better too. That’s what I aim for.
Achievements:
I am someone who’s always felt drawn to community work—I've done quite a few Ayurvedic health camps, and not just those big ones with banners, but small ones too, where ppl show up with problems they've ignored for years. These camps really taught me how diff real-world diagnosis feels outside the clinic. You meet folks with layered issues, and sometimes just basic awareness or early spotting change everything. That hands-on public health space really shaped my clinical thinking.

I am someone who's spent 3.6 years fully into Ayurvedic clinical + academic work at a private Ayurveda medical college & hospital, which honestly shaped how I see this whole system. I wasn’t just sitting with books or doing token rounds—there was real patient work every day, diagnosing lifestyle issues, chronic digestion stuff, joint pains that never went, even complicated prakriti-vikruti cases. My focus always stayed close to classical texts, but ya—I did use structured protocols where needed, especially for IPD patients. Most of the time I was split between OPD work and Panchakarma case planning, often supervising therapy schedules & making real-time adjustments depending on how a patient was reacting. I learnt early that textbook treatment plans rarely hold up fully when someone walks in with a mix of chronic symptoms + modern habits. You kinda learn to balance tradition with what’s practical. Teaching part? That was interesting too. I worked with UG students during rotations, shared clinical logic, taught how to *look* at a case, not just name it. Seminars, bimonthly case reviews, department meets—those things kept my brain tuned up. Sometimes I was teaching, sometimes just absorbing how others saw the same patient differently. You realise no two patients respond to the exact same chikitsa the way books say they will. I mostly leaned toward root-cause treatment, didn’t prefer just suppressing symptoms. Used a mix of classical medicines, pathya-apathya advice, yogic bits sometimes if patient was open to it. That mix really helped me understand how deeply behavior, food, and even unresolved mental patterns play into long-term health or lack of it. Looking back, that hospital phase gave me a wide, solid base. Not just in terms of skill—but how to stay grounded when you treat someone. You can’t rush. You need to *watch* a patient, listen weirdly close, and stay honest about what your system can or can’t solve. That mindset I’m carrying forward.
