Experience: | 3 years |
Education: | Ashtang Ayurveda College |
Academic degree: | Doctor of Medicine in Ayurveda |
Area of specialization: | I am a certified Ayurvedic doctor with a BAMS and MD in Ayurveda Samhita & Siddhanta—honestly, I’ve always felt drawn to the classical roots of this science, kinda like there’s something timeless about it that still clicks with modern life, if you really look close. I work mostly through the lens of core principles like Tridosha theory, Shat Kriya Kala, and Samprapti. And yeah—Prakriti-Vikriti analysis is huge in my approach, helps me get to that root-cause zone rather than just chasing symptoms around. I rely on the ancient texts...Charaka, Sushruta, Ashtanga Hridaya—they're not just theory to me, I actually try and make 'em work for real people. Treatment-wise, it’s always kinda holistic: Ahara, Vihara, Aushadhi and Panchakarma, but always shaped to the person not the condition. I really give a lot of focus to Sadvrutta, like ethical living, daily habits, prevention stuff—that’s underrated. Everything ties back to restoring balance. And honestly, the more I work with patients, the more I feel Ayurveda isn’t old—it’s just deep. |
Achievements: | I am someone who always kinda leans toward the study side of Ayurveda, not just the clinic work. I got to present my paper at a national seminar—actually won an award for that one—and also published a peer-reviewed piece on how classical clinical principles still totally apply. During my UG days I was really into Shlok recital too... got recognized for that, which meant a lot honestly. I also keep up with CME stuff, just to keep my basics sharp n' connected to the roots. |
I am someone who stepped into clinical Ayurveda around 4 years back and honestly didn’t expect to get this deep into it this quick. But the more I kept seeing patients walk in with complex issues, the more I realized how powerful the classical Ayurvedic approach actually is—when it's done properly, with dosha-based logic, root-cause thinking, and actual listening. I mostly focus on the kind of problems that don’t really go away with short-term fixes. Like GI stuff—acid reflux, IBS, constipation, sluggish Agni—I use herbs that help restore gut integrity, sometimes along with gentle detox or diet shifting. Hormonal things like thyroid imbalance or PCOD I usually handle with Rasayana and Agni therapy plus slowly getting lifestyle on track. And then there’s skin conditions like eczema or acne... people often don’t link skin with digestion or stress, but in Ayurveda it’s all connected. For pain-related issues—like knee stiffness, arthritis or back problems—I mostly rely on Panchakarma tools like Basti, Abhyanga, plus medicated lepas when needed. Also, I do a good bit of anorectal stuff (piles, fissures etc.) which ppl feel awkward talking about, but it’s treatable—mostly with herbs, lifestyle tweaks, and some topical help. More recently, I’ve been working with chronic and neurological patients—kidney failure, even meningitis cases—where Ayurveda supports healing alongside allopathy. Each patient is diff. so my plans always change based on their Prakriti, symptoms, season, or even what they can realistically follow. I work with kids, adults, elders—whoever comes in. My aim? Just to give real, sustainable, natural care using authentic Ayurveda—not shortcuts, not guesswork.
