Experience: | 11 years |
Education: | Gujarat Ayurved university |
Academic degree: | Master of Surgery in Ayurveda |
Area of specialization: | I am mainly into Ayurvedic surgery & para-surgical stuff — like, not just cutting things out but using techniques that actually *heal* from inside. My main focus is on ano-rectal disorders... piles, fissure-in-ano, fistula, pilonidal sinus — the usual ones people either ignore too long or get scared to talk about. I work with classical Ayurvedic procedures like Ksharasutra, Agnikarma & Raktamokshana. Each one has its own timing and vibe honestly. You can’t just use them like one-size-fits-all.
Most people think surgery = scary. But these methods are actually minimal, way less invasive than modern options in many cases. And ya, I don’t stop at just the surgery part. I pay a lot of attention to what the patient eats, their sleep pattern, stress load. Sometimes even little lifestyle tweeks make a big shift in recovery.
For me it’s not about just removing the problem — it’s about stopping it from coming back. That’s where Ayurveda really shines, if you ask me.!! |
Achievements: | I am done with my doctoral degree in 2023 — kinda felt like a big deal honestly, after all the hours n deadlines. Along the way, I somehow managed to win 5 Best Paper Awards at diff national & institutional conferences. Each one came from actual hard work (and late nights where I wasn’t sure if my data even made sense tbh). I try to keep my work rooted in evidence-based Ayurvedic practice… but still leave space for new ideas when they show up uninvited. |
I am an Ayurvedic surgeon mostly working in the field of anorectal disorders... piles, fissure, fistula, pilonidal sinus — yeah, all the painful, often ignored stuff people don’t talk about unless it gets too bad to sit or sleep or function properly. I've been in clinical practice for about 5 years now, and during this time, I’ve done more than 250 anorectal surgeries — all with classical Ayurvedic procedures like Ksharasutra and Ksharakarma. It’s a method that needs patience and precision, not flashy tools or fancy machines, just strong fundamentals and hands that know what they’re doing. My main focus has always been on making the whole process — from diagnosis to post-op — more human, less stressful. I’m not just cutting a fistula and walking off. I sit with the patient, try to figure where they’re struggling, like whether their pain started with constipation or their lifestyle is triggering flare-ups again n again. Sometimes even just their food habits mess things up more than they realize. I work with a mix of surgical intervention and day-to-day care — diet, sleep cycles, proper herbal supports. Honestly, I feel Ayurvedic surgery’s biggest power isn’t just removing the problem but preventing it from showing up again. That part gets ignored, but it’s actually what brings the real change. I keep myself grounded in the classics — I still go back to the texts — but also I keep looking at how new clinical updates or patient responses are shaping treatment. Each case teaches me something. Even with similar symptoms, every patient's recovery behaves a bit diffrent. I try not to generalize too fast, which I’ve learned the hard way once or twice. If you're tired of short-term patch ups or want an approach that treats the root cause not just the symptoms, I’d say—give Ayurvedic surgery a chance. You’ll still need to show up for your healing of course, but I’ll walk with you through it. That’s my part.
