Doctor information
Experience:
4 years
Education:
Matoshree Aasarabai Darade Ayurveda College Nashik
Academic degree:
Bachelor of Ayurvedic Medicine and Surgery
Area of specialization:
I am an Ayurvedic physican with MD in Kayachikitsa, kinda deep into chronic & lifestyle disorders management using the classical side of Ayurveda—not shortcuts. I work a lot with pain-related issues like sciatica, frozen shoulder, plantar fascitis, and for those I mostly go for Agnikarma—it works way faster than people expect, though yeah, not for everyone. Then there’s Basti, Virechan, Raktamokshan, etc. that I mix based on the body-type & what’s actually going on, not just the label. Diabetes (type 2), obesity, fatty liver—I see a lot of that in my OPD, and I like working on it through a mix of herbs, lifestyle, food tweaking. It’s not one-size-fits-all. Also spine/joint issues like arthritis, cervical, lumbar spondylitis or even slip disc—where Basti or sometimes Lepan make more impact than pills alone. Skin cases too—eczema, acne, psoriasis, and even stubborn dandruff—I treat them holistically, not just from outside. Also gut stuff—IBS, acidity, sluggish digestion—I actually find most stress-related things show up there first. I try to focus on root-cause not symptom chasig, even if that takes longer. That’s how Ayurveda really shines.
Achievements:
I am in my final year of MD in Kayachikitsa, still learning lots but already had decent clinical exposure through my govt housejob (1 yr) and then again as a registrar in the same dept. That phase gave me full hands-on—chronic lifestyle cases, tough metabolic profiles, real-time panchakarma applications, all of it. Done some academic paper work too, like presenting in seminars n’ stuff—was nervous but kinda proud. I keep trying to bridge the classics wth evidence-based work whenever I can... not always easy!!

I am an Ayurvedic physcian with an MD in Kayachikitsa—yeah, that's basically the internal medicine part of Ayurveda, and honestly it’s where I feel most at home. My practice mostly revolves around chronic and lifestyle disorders. I work a lot with diabetes (especially early-stage where reversal is still possible), gut imbalances, skin flare-ups, arthritis, stress stuff like sleep issues, fatigue, the whole modern package really. But what I try to do is not just fix symptoms for now... I really wanna understand why it’s happening in that person, at that time. I did advanced training in Panchakarma, which helps big time when someone needs proper detox or deeper-level tissue repair. That’s not for everyone tho—depends on how stable their system is, digestion-wise too. For some, just getting the diet-plan & herbs right does more than oil therapies ever could. And yes, I do lean heavily on classical texts, but I also stay updated on new clinical research—especially around metabolic disorders, pre-diabetes, insulin resitance... all that. I'm currently exploring more into research stuff, especially how Ayurveda can work in diabetes managment from a biochemical angle. But even beyond that, my goal really is to make the patient feel seen. Not like another OPD number. I spend time explaining things, giving a lil context why this medicine, why that pathya, and how their prakriti fits into the whole thing. It’s not perfect every time of course—some cases hit a wall or need a reset, but that’s part of the work. Education is huge for me too. Not in the lecture-y sense. Just—if someone walks away from a consult feeling more incharge of their body than before, I think I did alright. I guess the dream is to keep making Ayurveda more relatable, more real for today’s world without losing the essence of where it came from.
