Our Team of Ayurvedic Experts — page 30

I am Dr. Megha MS, and my everyday work is deeply rooted in the principles of classical Ayurveda, but I also keep one foot grounded in what people actually *need* now—today. Right now I’m based at Indeevaram Panchakarma Centre and Aushadhi Pharmacy, where I consult with patients from different walks of life—some come with chronic imbalances, others just... feeling off and not knowing why. Either way, I listen, assess dosha imbalance, lifestyle habits, digestion strength and everything that really matters to tailor the care. My key focus is Panchakarma therapy—not just the textbook version but the kind that fits *you*. Whether it’s Basti, Vamana or Shirodhara, I plan it based on stage, strength and prakriti. I’m not into rushing detox just for the sake of it. Some cases only need correction via herbal formulations and diet shifts. And that’s cool too. It’s about what your body is *asking* for, not what looks impressive on paper. Herbal treatments are another huge part of my toolkit. At Aushadhi Pharmacy, I get hands-on with medicine selection, often tweaking classical formulations or suggesting fresh prep options depending on the case. That personal involvement in Aushadhi work really helps me bridge theory with clinical practice. Prevention’s not just a buzzword for me—it’s something I actively plan around. Like helping patients shift daily habits, seasonal regimens, basic food logic (which most people mess up without realizing) and teaching them how to listen to early signs. I think Ayurved’s biggest strength is how much can be done *before* disease hits. I stay close to the texts but also realistic. I’m constantly learning, updating myself through ongoing study or talking to peers who challenge my thinking. Not everything in a Grantha works *as is* today—and I respect that. You adapt the method, not compromise the core. At the end of the day, I want my patients to feel understood, and I want the treatment to make sense *for them*—not just fit into a protocol.

I am an Ayurvedic physcian with post-grad degree in Kayachikitsa (that’s internal medicine btw) and been working hands-on in clinical setups for over 5 yrs now—since finishing my BAMS. My work mostly revolve around managing internal disorders through classical Ayurvedic approach, especially chronic stuff... like digestion gone haywire, thyroid flares, migraine-types, joint probs or even weird skin things that just don’t go. I try to really *see* the patient before labeling the condition—because most times it’s not just a gut issue or just back pain, it’s a full picture out of balance. I use a mix of classical formulations, Panchakarma where needed (some people really benefit from it), daily routine tweaks, and sometimes even just diet correction can be way more powerful than we think. I also focus a lot on listening—like not rushing ppl into protocol mode unless we figure out what’s really going on. That part matters, at least to me. I mean what’s the point of a textbook-perfect plan if the patient can’t stick to it or feel worse halfway? Right? Metabolic disorders, fatigue, anxiety-patterns, IBS, migraines, skin-autoimmune crossover... those are kinda common cases I see often. And every plan is unique—nothing cookie-cutter, coz prakriti, age, agni, it all varies wildly. I try to keep things practical, science-backed, but still rooted in the Ayurvedic view of healing—not symptom chasing but fixing from the base. Doesn’t mean ignoring modern tools either... sometimes I’ll ask for labs, scans, referrals, whatever’s needed to support clean diagnosis. If you ask what drives me, it’s honestly that moment when a person says “I feel normal again.” That’s it. That’s the goal. Healing not just the disease but the human wrapped around it. Feels right, even on the off days.

I am working as a Gynecologist, Obstetrician & Fertility specialist with around 3 years of full-time clinical experience. It's been a fast-moving ride honestly—one minute you're learning protocols, next you're knee-deep in patient histories and treatment planning. Most of my day-to-day work centers around managing menstrual disorders, PCOD, infertility cases (a lot of them lately), and pregnancy care—especially the more high-risk ones that keep you thinking even after the shift ends. I also do gynecological procedures, both minor and advanced. What I really care about tho is how each woman’s story is different—you can’t treat a fibroid case like just a fibroid, you have to understand how it’s affecting *her*, you know? And that’s how I try to work. Fertility is one area where that’s specially true—no two couples come in with the same weight on their minds. I’ve seen that even a little shift in how we listen or explain can change the whole experience for them. At my current setup I use both evidence-based medical protocols and a bit of room for personalized approach, especially when the patient’s lifestyle, stress levels, or emotional state needs it. I’m big on clear communication, though sometimes I probably overexplain stuff lol. But I’d rather they go home knowing why a test matters or what we’re trying with a certain treatment than feel lost in the process. And yeah, it’s just 3 years, but I’ve packed in a lot during this time—OPDs, IPDs, deliveries, surgeries, fertility consults... all of it. Still learning every single day tbh. And honestly that’s what keeps me going.

I am an Obstetrician, Gynaecologist & Fertility doctor currently practicing at Gynae Pro Clinic in Dehradun under Dr Vibha Parihar \[MS] who's been a huge mentor btw. My day mostly revolves around handling menstrual disorders, pregnancy care—esp high-risk ones, and of course helping couples through all that fertility journey chaos, which is way more layered than ppl assume. Every case’s a new mix of hormone patterns, timings, emotional ups n downs... no two are same really. Fertility medicine is a space I really got pulled into. I try to make my approach feel safe but also realistic, where couples don’t feel pushed into aggressive steps too soon. A lot of that means spending time explaining, rechecking reports, listening again—especially when you sense something doesn't sit right despite normal labs. I’ve also been doing plenty of gynecological surgeries and minimally invasive work when required. Still, I think what matters most is knowing *when* not to intervene and just wait-watch with the patient, esp during antenatal phases where panic can lead to overtreatment. Diet, supplements, sleep—these aren’t side topics in my OPD. I talk about those just as much as scans or medications bcoz all of it together supports long-term reproductive health. Modern tech is great, we use it a lot at the clinic, but I always try to balance it with a person-first kind of care. My aim? To not just treat the symptoms or fix one cycle—but to help women feel like they’ve understood what their body’s trying to say, and leave a consult feeling actually heard.

I am a graduate from Maharashtra University of Health Sciences (MUHS) where my foundation in Ayurveda actually got shaped in a real way—not just textbooks, but also the mindset of how you see health as a whole. What really made a shift for me though was getting the chance to train under some amazing mentors—Vaidya Suvinay Damale Guruji, Vaidya Praveen Banmeru, and Vaidya Sachin Mhaisne. Learning under them was honestly intense but opened my eyes to how deep classical Ayurveda can go... not just herbs and doshas, but logic, nari-pariksha, pathya-apathya, the small things that affect everything. Their clinical approach was practical, rooted, and yet very individualized. That’s what I try to carry into my practice now—when I meet a patient, I don’t jump into protocol mode. I look for patterns, body types, mental state... sometimes even things like weather, eating rhythm, sleep flow, etc. Because yeah, all of it matters in Ayurveda. My main area of work revolves around holistic, patient-specific treatments—meaning no fixed formulas. I usually mix herbal medicines with diet corrections, routine shifting and a lot of small lifestyle tweaks (people underrate those, honestly). Sometimes just balancing sleep or changing dinner timings does more than 3 meds. Consultations with me are less about fast results, more about sustainable healing. I believe every body has its own code and my job is to just help untangle it without pushing things harshly. And yeah, I keep going back to the texts when needed. Charak, Sushruta—they’re not outdated, they’re just under-read.

I am doing my PG in Sharira Rachana from Govt Ayurvedic College, Jalukbari—currently in 2nd year. It’s a lot honestly... endless dissection, tracing classical texts line by line, trying to connect that to what shows up in real patients. Sometimes I get stuck between what the books say and what the body shows, but that’s part of the learning I guess. While studying, I’ve also been working with the Health India Platform as a Medical Officer, giving online consultations. That helped me tons in seeing the practical side—like how to translate Ayurvedic principles into actual, usable advice that ppl can follow in daily life. I had to keep things both traditional *and* understandable. It’s easy to say dosha imbalance... harder to explain what that means for someone’s breakfast or work stress or fungal rash they got last week. My interest kinda sits right at that overlap—bringing Ayurvedic anatomy into real world care. Not just knowing where sira or marma is, but how those ideas help improve diagnosis or maybe even guide a better treatment choice. I try to give patients not just medicines but also context… like why a certain food or routine matters in *their* case. This whole journey made me more curious (and way more patient) when it comes to understanding how we heal—not just where the pain is, but how the system broke in the first place. I still have lots to learn and honestly I doubt that will ever stop. But for now, this mix of PG training + real-world consults has been giving me a deeper grip on what Ayurvedic care really means today.

I am Dr. Parineeta and right now I’m working as a Medical Officer under the Govt. of Maharashtra—been here for 5 years straight, and honestly, each year’s taught me something new. I handle day-to-day clinical care across all sorts of patient profiles… rural, urban, sometimes even tribal belts. It’s not always easy, but working in the govt sector gives you a crazy mix of cases, like from seasonal fevers to chronic gut issues, even psychosomatic stuff. My practice is rooted in classical Ayurveda but ya, I also kinda adapt it to modern-day life—like people’s stress patterns, lifestyle, sleep chaos and diet habits. I try to keep the treatment realistic, not rigid. I work closely with the patients and focus big time on prevention—not just waiting for symptoms to blow up. Most of my approach centers around diet correction, herbal support, and balancing daily routines (dinacharya and all that), but ya, each plan is custom to the patient. Working in govt setup also makes you value patient education more—I do spend time explaining, motivating people to follow through. There’s no shortcut there. And tbh, seeing folks actually get better without heavy meds or side-effects—kinda makes you stay in the field. I also make sure to stay updated with Ayurveda research, current protocols, and state guidelines. Learning's a forever thing here.

I am an Ayurvedic doctor who kinda grew into this path naturally—my roots are in Kerala, and I did my internship at VPSV Ayurveda College in Kottakkal, which honestly was one of the most eye-opening stages of my life. That place isn’t just a college, it’s a deep well of real Ayurveda. The kind that’s lived, not just studied. During my time there, I didn’t just observe—I *practiced*. Diagnosing, treating, understanding the patient beyond their symptoms, all that hands-on stuff that textbooks don’t really teach. It’s where I learned the rhythm of classical Kerala Ayurveda, the art of pulse reading, and how Panchakarma ain’t just about detox but more about deep repair. I work closely with patients—always felt more like a guide than just a doctor tbh. Whether it's about fixing a chronic issue or preventing one from happening, I focus on the full picture. I give a lot of attention to diet (pathya), routine, mental clutter, and stress stuff. Counseling on these isn’t an ‘extra’—I see it as a part of healing. And not the preachy kind either, more like what works *for you*, your lifestyle, your space. Also yeah—I’m a certified Smrithi Meditation Consultant from Kottakkal Ayurveda School of Excellence. This kinda allowed me to mix mindfulness with medicine, which I find super important, especially in today’s distracted world. I integrate meditation where needed—some patients need a virechana, some just need to breathe better before they sleep. There’s no one-size-fits-all and I kinda like that part of my job the most. I don’t claim to know it all, but I listen deeply, treat with care, and stay true to the Ayurvedic principles I was trained in. My role feels less about ‘curing’ and more about nudging people back to their natural balance... it’s not quick or flashy, but it feels right.

I am an Ayurvedic physician mainly working in anorectal and GI stuff—things like piles, fissures, fistulas, sluggish liver, constipation n similar disorders that ppl usually struggle with quietly way too long. I spent 2 full years at Sumna Anorectal Hospital in Tirupati, Andhra Pradesh, where I kinda deep-dived into classical approaches + parasurgical stuff like Ksharsutra, which honestly works way better than ppl expect (if used right). Later I did this one-year CRAV training under Rashtriya Ayurveda Vidyapeeth (yeah the AYUSH ministry backed one) in Delhi... not just theory but proper hands-on refinement. Helped me sort my line of thinking—like when to go full shodhana, when not to push it. Right now I run my own setup—the Advance Ayurveda Anorectal and Piles Clinic & Panchakarma Centre. Not some fancy chain thing. Just me, trying to give proper attention to each person. Most of my treatments revolve around tailored protocols—sometimes Ksharsutra, sometimes just diet+herbs, or localized lepa, basti, virechana if the gut's totally stuck. I don’t like pushing patients thru pre-fixed "packages” just to tick boxes. Every case is different. Like one fissure patient needs deep healing, not cutting... another with fistula may need staged work—not just banding n hoping for the best. I try to match treatment to prakruti, dosha avastha, and honestly—how much the patient can manage in real life rn. If someone’s stressed n not eating or sleeping on time, even the best meds won’t hold. Also not ignoring diagnostics either. I still ask for scans or bloods when I feel something doesn’t line up. Ayurveda isn't anti-science. For me, the whole point is integration—real healing that stays, not just symptom patchwork. Anyway, still learning every day. Still observing how the same treatment hits diff ppl diff ways. That’s what keeps me going.

I am an Ayurvedic doctor with close to 5 years of real-time experience—mostly clinic-based, but I’ve also worked through hospital cases where chronic patterns kinda need more layering. I deal with a range—gas, acidity, fibroids, skin rashes, mood cycles going haywire, even those confusing “undiagnosed” fatigue types. Some cases are easy, like seasonal flu or simple constipation. Others? not always. I don’t really go by protocol kits or just give churnas-for-everything. Each plan I make depends on how the person *functions*, not just what they’re "diagnosed" with. Like—how’s their sleep been lately? Are they skipping meals but still bloated? Do they feel heavy in the head or in the gut? These things help me figure prakruti and agni-state better than just a label like "PCOS" or “gastritis”. Most of my work starts with some basic detox or aam-pachana and then I kinda build up from there—either via rasayana, satvavajaya (esp in stress cases), or sthanik stuff for localised pain or skin. I use a lot of diagnostics too—not blindly, but when the patient’s state doesn’t quite match the obvious. Blood tests, sonos, hormone panels… they help me map modern pathology with srotas-dushya logic. Like—gut shows up in skin, uterus is linked to meda dhatu... that kind of deeper reading helps. I don’t rush to prescribe. I usually talk longer, note small things, check their routines n food pattern first. Sometimes patients say they came for acne or knee pain, but digestion or sleep ends up being the first thing I treat. That part’s tricky but worth it. My strength? I guess it’s planning treatment *with* the person, not just for them. Whether it’s chronic acidity, sugar levels rising slowly or skin flaring with stress—I try giving something that sticks. Maybe slow, but sustainable. Still learning a lot tbh—reading, observing, tweaking old shloka meanings when real cases don’t match textbook versions. That’s the part I never wanna stop doing.
