Area of specialization:
I am mostly working around Ayurvedic treatment + Panchakarma therapies, that’s kinda where my main interest lies. I focus a lot on detox n’ healing naturally, rather than just patching over symptoms. Along with that, I’ve also got a solid background in modern pharmacology—kinda weird mix maybe but helps a LOT when patients come in already on allopathic meds and you need to be careful with how you guide them next. What I like most is being able to blend both systems without making it confusing for patients. My approach usually starts with understanding their lifestyle and diet patterns first. Like if someone’s gut is messed up but they’re also taking 4 kinds of pills, you can’t just throw herbs at them... you gotta read the whole picture. I do personalised treatment planning based on Prakriti, dosha state, etc. and usually mix that with realistic changes they can actually follow. Also I do aesthetic treatments like PRP—mostly for hair & skin cases. Some people come just for that, but then once they see results and feel better, they’re more open to deeper wellness care too. That’s where I bring in lifestyle guidance, Ayurvedic nutrition tips, and sometimes Panchkarma for deeper detox—depending what fits their profile. I think one thing ppl say about me is that I'm pretty good at listening. I mean, real patient counselling's not just about giving advice... it's also about letting them feel heard. I try to explain stuff without too much jargon and give them time to decide. Not just rush decisions. Whole experience should feel calm, clear, and human—whether it’s a chronic disease or something as minor as hairfall.
Achievements:
I am someone who always wanted to push my limits a bit, so yeah—took up specialized training in aesthetic medicine. It really opened up new dimensions for me, especially with modern skin n' hair treatments that patients ask about. I also did a trauma care workshop, which was kinda intense but super useful. Helped me understand emergency handling better... things like first response protocols, stabilizing patients, decision-making under pressure—all that stuff. Kinda feels good to blend both clinical sides.

I am someone who’s really tried to balance the deep roots of Ayurveda with what actually works for patients in day-to-day clinical setting. Working at Ch. Brahm Prakash Ayurved Charak Sansthan kinda shaped a lot of that—being in the OPDs, seeing people with chronic lifestyle mess like joint pains, skin breakouts, IBS, and insulin resistance... it wasn’t just textbook cases. Real folks, real stories. I was lucky to be mentored there by seniors who really lived the Ayurvedic approach—not just giving churnas but understanding when to use Rasayana, when a Panchakarma was really needed or when just changing the diet calmed a patient down more than any formulation. And then Deen Dayal Upadhyay Hospital, honestly, that was another level. Here I saw what happens when you work alongside modern med docs. Like how an Ayurvedic line of treatment can be safely layered with allopathy in complex situations, especially for chronic stuff that needed continuity and patience—like maybe a stroke recovery or diabetic foot case. The exposure to both IPD and OPD gave me a different kind of clinical confidence. Diagnosis, charting progress, followups that matter—these things got drilled in. Anyway, over the years what stood out to me is... healing’s not about only removing symptoms. I mean yes of course that too—but if the root cause stays untouched, it all comes back. That’s where my interest in prakriti-based care, preventive advice, and longterm sustainability got stronger. I'm not really into giving generic prescriptions. I try to hear people properly, ask the odd questions, figure out where the imbalance really start. Could be stress, wrong dincharya, maybe ama build-up—each case is different. I’m still learning, constantly reading, trying to stay updated. Not just from journals but also from what patients teach me unknowingly. I guess that mix—Ayurveda’s depth + real world feedback—is what keeps me grounded and motivated to keep doing this everyday.
