1 year
Education:
Gomantak Ayurveda Mahavidyalaya Research Centre, Goa
Academic degree:
Bachelor of Ayurvedic Medicine and Surgery
Area of specialization:
I am mainly working with common but stubborn health issues that people face again & again, like cough that never fully goes, sneezing fits from allergic rhinitis or colds that keep comming back each season. I spend lot of time with respiratory cases bcoz they affect daily life more than people realise. Along with that I handle joint problems—stiffness, swelling, even early wear and tear that makes walking or climbing stair a struggle. Helping someone move more freely after weeks of pain feels like a real achivement. Digestive troubles are another area I see often—gas, bloating, irregular motions, and weak agni that disturb everything else in body. My work is not about suppressing symptoms but about balancing gut fire, calming vata or kapha, and clearing toxins through herbs, diet adjustment, counselling, and detox when needed. I like combining these tools based on each person’s pattern, not a fixed formula. For me, sustainable health means fixing root cause and giving patients a way to live better without running back every month for same complaint.
Achievements:
I am someone who kept learning after basic degree because I felt Ayurveda alone need support of deep skills. I did a PG Diploma in Clinical Cosmetology from Indian Institute of Cosmetology & Nutrition Pune, that opened up my view on skin and hair in a more holistic way. Later I went for PG Proficiency in Panchakarma at RIHMS Pune, where detox therapies became part of my regular practice. Also trained in Type 2 Diabetes Reversal at Madhavbaug, which really change how I manage metabolic disorder in daily clinic.

I am a Ayurvedic physician who honestly feel that healing is not just about treating a disease but also about guiding people to live in balance with themself. I started this journey with a simple idea that Ayurveda is not old or outdated but something that actually fits modern life if we apply it right. My focus is both curative and preventive, I like helping people with chronic disorders, lifestyle troubles and also teaching them how to avoid falling into those pattern again. Sometimes it feels like patients come only when things get really worse, and I try to remind them that prevention matter as much as cure. I completed a Post Graduate Diploma in Clinical Cosmetology (PGDCC) from the Indian Institute of Cosmetology and Nutrition, Pune. This gave me more depth into skin health, hair care and aesthetic wellness with holistic view, not just chemicals or short fixes. Along with that, I hold a Post Graduate Proficiency Diploma in Panchakarma (PGPP) from RIHMS, Pune. Panchakarma became very important in my practice because it gives a structured way for detoxification and rejuvenation, especially for chronic conditions where only medicines don’t seem enough. Sometimes I feel like this is the real strength of Ayurveda, that it doesn’t just suppress but cleans and reset the system. To broaden my practice further, I did a Type 2 Diabetes Reversal Course from Madhavbaug. Diabetes is like everywhere now, so many young patients too, and this training helped me integrate Ayurvedic management with diet correction and evidence-based care approach. It feels rewarding when patients actually reduce dependency on long medications and find better energy in day-to-day life. In my clinical approach, I use Panchakarma therapies, Ayurvedic cosmetology, nutrition advice and lifestyle counselling as tools. Each patient is different, sometimes I need to focus more on detox, sometimes more on stress, sometimes only daily routine change make the difference. I believe in authentic and compassionate care, and I see my role not only as a doctor but also as an educator who remind people that their body has capacity to heal when supported with right methods. My aim is simple: to serve community with genuine Ayurveda and make health something sustainable, not temporary.
