Area of specialization:
I am someone who works almost every day with ano-rectal disorders—stuff like piles (Arsha), fistula-in-ano (Bhagandara), fissures (Parikartika), abscesses—all the things people find awkward to talk about but can’t live peacefully with either. My work in Ayurvedic proctology is fully rooted in classical methods, especially Ksharasutra therapy, which I honestly believe is one of the most underused yet brilliant tools we have in this field. I focus on giving patients a path that doesn't involve cutting unless absolutely needed. Ksharasutra is minimally invasive, sure—but more than that, it’s curative when applied right. It’s not just about symptom control, it's about healing at the root and reducing those repeat flare-ups that wear people down. I design treatment based on proper assessment—digestive history, prakriti, diet triggers, and even stress patterns. All of it affects how anorectal diseases behave. Many patients I see come in frustrated, tired, scared of surgery—or worse, post-surgery and still in pain. And for them, Ayurveda offers something different. A slower path maybe, but one that respects the body’s natural process of healing. That’s what I try to create. A plan that doesn’t feel like another clinical loop... but like a real way forward.
Achievements:
I am grateful to have recieved the “Bhishak Prathibha” state award from AMAI in 2021—it kinda felt like one of those rare moments where the hard, quiet work actually got seen. That recognition wasn’t just about technique, but about staying rooted in ethical practice, using traditional Ayurvedic proctology methods like Ksharasutra, and honestly just showing up for patients again and again. It reminded me that even slow, simple healing still has a place in real medicine.

I am an Ayurvedic doctor practicing for about six years now, and I’ve kinda carved out my space in proctology—not by choice honestly, but because that’s where I saw so many patients suffering quietly with pain they didn’t want to talk about. Piles (Arsha), fistula-in-ano (Bhagandara), fissures (Parikartika)... these aren’t just physical issues, they mess with a person’s confidence, daily rhythm, even sleep. And I wanted to offer something better than just surgery-or-suffer. I did my BAMS from KMCT Ayurveda Medical College in Kerala, which gave me the clinical basics but I wanted to go deeper into Ksharasutra therapy. Ended up doing CRAV training in Himachal Pradesh under some seriously skilled hands. That’s where I saw what this parasurgical technique can really do—especially for fistula cases that were labeled “hopeless.” We worked with precision, patience, and yeah, herbal strength too. No major cuts. No long hospital stays. Just smart Ayurveda doing its work. My method? Root-cause focused. Always. Symptom management is fine for the short term, but if you don’t fix what started the imbalance—diet, bowel habits, lifestyle overload—it’s just gonna come back. I spend time understanding each patient’s pattern, prakriti-vikriti, and then build a plan around that. Ksharasutra when needed, but also basti, internal medicines, post-op healing routines, and very specific food guidance (because no, everyone can’t eat bananas and ghee for healing). What I care about most is giving people a way out—without fear. Many of my patients had already tried surgery or were scared stiff of it. But with the right Ayurvedic approach, we brought them relief that was natural, sustainable and didn’t leave them feeling broken or dependent. For me, it’s not about miracle cures. It’s about real outcomes, quiet recoveries, and that moment when someone tells you, “I don’t feel scared anymore to go to the toilet.” That’s when you know the treatment actually mattered.
