Dr. Saraswati Chinmalli
Experience: | |
Education: | Shri Vijay Mahantesh Vidya Vardhak Sangha Ayurvedic Medical College |
Academic degree: | Master of Surgery in Ayurveda |
Area of specialization: | I am mainly focused on Prasuti Tantra & Stree Roga—it’s like where everything I care about in Ayurveda sorta comes together. My work revolves around managing PCOS, infertility issues, and ANC (antenatal care) using real classical Ayurvedic protocols, not just surface treatments or shortcuts. Each case is different, like no two cycles or symptoms are exactly same, and I usually start by figuring out where the imbalance actually starts—whether it’s Aahar, sleep, or emotional weight that’s stuck somewhere inside.
With menstrual disorders or hormonal chaos, I use herbs, ahara-vihara shifts, sometimes detox routines depending on the dosha picture. In infertility cases I give a lot of attention to ovulation tracking, cervical mucus patterns, digestion patterns—stuff that don’t always get noticed in rushy checkups. And during pregnancy, my care is pretty hands-on... prenatal massage, diet planning, and safe herbal support to keep both mother & fetus in balance. I also do postnatal care where I guide new moms on dhatukshaya correction and strength rebuilding, coz that phase’s honestly v delicate.
There’s always more to learn—but this is where I’ve found my purpose. |
Achievements: | I hold an MS in Prasuti Tantra and Stree Roga, specializing in women’s health and Ayurvedic obstetrics. I have presented several research papers and actively participated in seminars, contributing to academic discussions and advancing knowledge in the field. These experiences have enriched my clinical practice and reflect my dedication to evidence-based Ayurvedic care. |
I am currently working as an Assistant Professor at RRAMC College, where honestly my day swings between teaching Ayurvedic fundamentals, mentoring students one-on-one, and getting into the grind of research that keeps Ayurveda alive in today's context. I don’t just teach from books—I kinda live it. Whether it's guiding a confused intern during rounds or debating classical references during lectures, I really try to make Ayurveda feel real and relevant, not dusty and frozen in time. Apart from academics, I’ve had my share of tough boots-on-ground moments too. During the COVID pandemic, I was on duty at a Covid Care Centre. That phase was rough—managing patients, oxygen levels, panic, everything. No script, just presence and fast decision-making. And when the Aapthamitra teleconsultations rolled out, I was also part of the team offering remote advice to ppl stuck at home, isolated, anxious. It wasn’t just medicine—it was comfort and clarity in chaos, if that makes sense. Before this role, I worked as a Medical Officer at PHC Magadi Road in Bengaluru. That place taught me a lot. You see everything there—from fever cases to pregnant mothers in labour to those regulars with chronic diabetes or knee pain who just walk in n chat about their BP. I learned what real primary care looks like—fast-paced but personal, limited resources but unlimited stories. I don’t believe Ayurveda is meant to sit only in pages. Whether I'm treating with classical herbal protocols or just talking to patients about their daily routines, it’s all about balance. I try to align treatments not just to the disease, but to the life around that disease. And yeah, I'm still learning. Reading. Listening. Updating myself through workshops, CME meets, and conversations with seniors who’ve walked this path longer. Ayurveda’s not static. It grows through each patient, each mistake, each curious student. That’s really what keeps me here.
