Area of specialization:
I am someone who's always kinda gravitated toward skin and metabolism stuff... I mean during my residency, that’s where I really dug in. I got to work with tons of cases—eczema, psoriasis, acne flareups that just won't stop, and then all the metabolic side of things—thyroid ups & downs, diabetes creeping in, gut issues that don’t show on scans but like, totally mess with daily life. That mix of visible and invisible symptoms? It pushed me to keep learning beyond protocols. I mostly use classical Ayurvedic principles to map a person’s root imbalance—like dosha shifts, agni status, etc.—but I also like tying it into clinical patterns. Like if someone’s got sudden weight gain and anxiety along with hair thinning... that screams metabolic imbalance and some kind of pitta-vata flare, right? Stuff connects. You just have to know where to look and how deep to go. I use Panchakarma often—esp. in chronic skin stuff and hormonal correction cases—it’s not just about “detox” like people say. When used properly, at right stage, it resets things on a deeper level. And ya, I’m super careful about preparation, timing, follow-ups. Random therapies just don’t cut it. At the end of the day, my goal’s simple—understand the why behind what’s showing up on the skin or in the blood sugar graph. And then build something that makes sense for that person’s lifestyle n system. Every body’s different... Ayurveda kinda taught me to see that early, and I just keep going from there.
Achievements:
I am still kinda suprised when I think abt it—got the First Best Paper Presentation Award at a national seminar in Amravati, Maharashtra. The topic was my research on chronic respiratory and metabolic disorders. That moment kinda felt like a push, like okay maybe this path I’m choosing—digging into real-world problems using Ayurved's lens—maybe it’s working? I was honestly just tryna connect classical texts with today's clinical needs, glad it got noticed by peers. Still makes me smile.

I am Dr. Snehal Bhagwat Patil and yeah, I’m basically an Ayurvedic doctor with postgraduation in Kayachikitsa—that’s internal medicine, the deep stuff. I did my PG from one of the top Ayurveda institutes in Maharashtra, and honestly those years shaped how I see healing... it wasn't just textbook learning, we actually lived Ayurveda in the wards, in OPDs, everywhere. Now with about 3 years of full-on hands-on practice, I try to keep that same clarity and depth while treating people in the real world. I work mostly with chronic and lifestyle-driven issues—stuff like acidity, IBS, diabetes, asthma, anxiety—where symptoms tend to overlap and linger. And instead of just controlling those symptoms, my thing is always going to the root. What’s actually going on behind that bloating or fatigue or whatever? That’s what I wanna know first. From there I create a plan—usually a mix of classical herbal meds, detox therapies like Panchakarma, diet tweaks, sometimes even just helping people fix their daily routine which, trust me, often makes a huge difference on it’s own. I’m not too rigid about just doing things the traditional way though. I’ll check lab reports, I’ll correlate your Vata-Pitta-Kapha story with your blood sugar trends or whatever it takes to get it right. Ayurveda doesn’t need to be old-school to be real—it just needs to be true to its roots, and adapted smartly to modern living. That’s really the goal for me. Help people take back charge of their health using what Ayurveda already told us—about digestion, sleep, food, stress—all the stuff we often ignore until we can’t. And I try to make that doable, practical... not just preachy. Whether someone’s coming in with migraines every week or years of skin rashes or just that weird tired-all-the-time thing—I'm here to listen, connect dots, and treat—not just with gyan but with actual relief that sticks.
