Academic degree:
Bachelor of Ayurvedic Medicine and Surgery
Area of specialization:
I am mainly working with kidney stones, respiratory disorders n infertility issues in my Ayurved practice — and ya it keeps me on my toes coz no two cases feel exactly same ever. When I see a new patient, first I try to understand their Prakriti and what kind of dosha disturbance is really driving the issue. You can’t just jump into giving herbs or therapies without that part clear, otherwise the results just don’t last or they bounce back. For kidney stones, I stick with time-tested herbal formulations — some are simple but powerful — plus strict diet correction coz honestly food habits are half the problem there. And prevention? That’s the real win. I’ve seen too many patients coming again n again for the same pain until we finally fix the root patterns. Respiratory stuff is tricky—chronic cough, astham, allergies, especially during seasonal shifts. I use internal meds, Rasayana combos n also suggest breathing stuff like Pranayam where needed. It works well but only if ppl stick to it properrly... which is the hard part sometimes. Infertility cases are emotional. I try to balance hormones naturally, work on uterine health, and yes, Garbhasanskar has helped for some couples who were struggling. Detox also plays a role, but not too aggressively — the body needs time to reset. My aim? Treat the whole person, not just remove symptoms n call it done. Healing has to last — that’s what I go for.
Achievements:
I am still kinda stunned when I think abt getting the Best Clinician Award — that moment really stayed with me. Not just a title, it felt like a reminder that the way I listen to patients, try to reach the right diagnosis, and stay true to the classical Ayurved approach—actually made an impact. Honestly it pushed me harder to keep upgrading how I work, not get too comfy. Healing is complex n this just made me wanna go deeper, refine more, stay sharp every single day.

I am working in Ayurved practice for over five years now, and honestly it still feels like each patient teaches me something new. My focus has mostly been on holistic care—not just symptom control, but going deep into what’s causing the issue and trying to correct that. Whether it’s a lifestyle disease that’s grown over years or some seasonal flare-up that came out of nowhere, I try to figure out a plan that’s both rooted in classical texts and still makes sense for today’s lifestyle... coz that part keeps changing constantly. I usually begin with a detailed assessment—things like Prakriti analysis, dosha balance (or more often, imbalance lol), daily habits, appetite, stress triggers, sleep patterns, the works. Sometimes even one small detail tells you a lot if you're looking properly. From there I customize herbal meds, food changes, Panchakarma when needed, n even simple daily routine tips. Doesn’t always need a big treatment, sometimes it’s just about small shifts that work together. Lot of the cases I’ve handled are related to digestion issues, stress, hormonal shifts, or joint pains that don’t go away despite meds... those are tricky but I feel that’s where Ayurved shines if you stay patient n honest with it. Many patients also come in with fatigue or mood swings that allopathic tests don’t explain much—those cases really require sitting down and listening. I try to give space to patients to talk, not just diagnose fast and move on. My goal? I guess it’s to make Ayurved feel real for people. Not just something ancient but something that fits today too. I like to give them tools they can carry with them—understanding their bodytype, knowing what food suits them, when to cleanse or rest... even small stuff like waking up at a fixed time can shift the body’s energy. Anyway yeah, I do my best to keep it authentic to the roots but still usable for now. Just helping people live in tune with their body, not fight against it all the time. That’s the aim really.
