Banaras Hindu University
Academic degree:
Doctor of Medicine in Ayurveda
Area of specialization:
I am an Ayurvedic doctor with an MD in Ayurveda Medicine and my main area of interest kinda landed naturally into cosmetology, trichology, and overall aesthetic wellness—stuff that a lotta people quietly struggle with but don’t always know where to turn. I deal with skin and hair problems that just don’t seem to budge—like acne, pigmentation, scalp irritation, dandruff, psoriasis, hair fall, early greying... that whole zone. What I do is mix up the classics—like, actual Ayurvedic principles from the texts—with personalized herbs, oils, and diet tweaks that match the person’s body type and daily habits. I don’t just prescribe something and call it a day. There’s this process I follow where I figure out what doshas are acting up, how deep the issue goes, and why it's not responding to quick fixes or over-the-counter things. And trust me, half the time it's all connected—gut, sleep, hormones—skin’s like a mirror to the inside. Most people come in kinda frustrated or confused, and yeah I get that. My job is to simplify things and give them a plan that’s natural, safe, and doesn't mess up other parts of health. Each treatment is 100% customised—it’s not a one-size thing. I work to make sure the plan fits not just the problem but the lifestyle too. And slowly, we start seeing those little shifts—clearer skin, less hair shedding, better scalp health—and people begin feeling like themselves again, or better. That's what I’m really here for.
Achievements:
I am someone who finished my BAMS in Pune and then did MD in Ayurveda from BHU—yep, that’s Banaras Hindu University, which honestly is one of those places where you really feel the weight of Ayurved's legacy, if that makes sense. Studying there changed how I looked at healing, big time. But honestly? what shaped me more was learning under a few amazing Vaidyas during my early days. Not just book stuff—real patient stuff. That mix of classroom n old-school wisdom kinda still guides me everytime I meet a new case.

I am an Ayurvedic physician who kinda lives by the idea that healing’s not just about fixing what’s wrong, but really seeing the whole person. That’s always been a big thing for me—like, you can’t really treat someone if you don’t understand where they’re coming from. And that’s what Ayurveda gave me. This way of looking at health through Prakriti and Vikriti, through daily habits, food, emotions—it just makes sense to me. Over time, I found myself drawn toward general health stuff, but honestly what really caught my attention were the skin and hair issues ppl struggle with. They’re visible, yeah, but they’re also frustrating and chronic and most of the time people have already tried a dozen things before they walk in. Things like pigmentation that just won’t go, or this odd recurring dandruff or scalp patches... even small things like hairfall that mess with someone's confidence big-time. I work a lot with conditions like acne, fungal patches, eczema, scalp itching, premature greying, urticaria—and I like to look beyond what’s on the surface. If digestion’s off, or sleep's been a mess, or stress is through the roof—it all shows up on skin eventually. That’s where I step in with proper herbs, Rasayana therapies, oils, and especially diet shifts. I really do believe in simple plans. Not like a hundred things at once. Just slow, effective steps that work with the body, not against it. Classical medicines and customized lifestyle advice help ppl kinda reset from inside out. And honestly? That moment when a person sees real change—not just clear skin or better hair but actual wellness—that’s what keeps me going. Ayurveda isn't a job for me. I live it, literally. Watching someone walk in tired and stuck, and walk out lighter—emotionally and physically—makes every hour of this path worth it. If you're dealing with stuff that’s not going away, I’m here. I’ll listen without judgement and work with you, step by step, to get you back to feeling okay in your own skin. Literally and otherwise.
