Experience: | 1 year |
Education: | Dr BRKR Government Ayurvedic Medical College |
Academic degree: | Master of Surgery in Ayurveda |
Area of specialization: | I am someone who’s kinda stuck deep into the world of Ayurvedic surgery—yep, I did my MS in Shalya Tantra and that’s where my focus really lies. Most of my work revolves around managing surgical-type conditions but using Ayurvedic techniques instead of going straight to cutting or GA or anything drastic. Stuff like piles, fistula-in-ano, fissures, pilonidal sinus... those are my daily battlefield. I lean on Ksharasutra, Agnikarma, and other parasurgical tools from the classical texts—been trained thoroughly in those.
I usually approach each case with this mix of classical Ayurved insight and whatever modern diagnostic stuff helps (I mean, ignoring reports just doesn’t help anyone right?) but I don’t let machines dictate the plan either. Treatment is usually minimaly invasive, focused and much safer than most people think—no huge hospital bills, no unneccessary antibiotics, no running back every week for new problems.
Also I’m very particular when it comes to post-op wound care and diet, especially with patients who have chronic conditions. You can't just fix the thing and leave—you gotta help them keep it from coming back. I also focus a lot on lifestyle correction, dosha management and herbal formulations based on prakruti. That’s usually what makes long-term recovery actually happen and not just temp. relief. My real goal? Just making sure people know they have solid options that work, that don't wreck their body or peace of mind in the process. |
Achievements: | I am someone who started this journey with a BAMS degree, and ya that gave me a solid grasp on the basics of Ayurvedic medcine, like really understanding how it all connects—body, mind, diet, disease. Later, doing MS in Ayurvedic Genral Surgery sorta deepend that whole thing, especially with actual hands-on stuff like Ksharsutra & all.
The combination really helped me build confidence in treating chronic and surgical cases the Ayurvedic way.. I mean, not just symptoms but fixing the root. I guess the academic side kinda shaped how I see healing—not only by the text, but by seeing what really works in people’s lives. It’s not about memorising verses; it’s about turning those principles into action, case by case. And honestly that part still teaches me everyday. |
I am working right now as a Consultant Ayurvedic Ano-Rectal Surgeon at Bhrigu Maharishi Ayurvedic Hospital in Nalgonda—and yeah, that name’s quite something, but what really keeps me here is the kind of cases we get. My main focus is managing ano-rectal disorders like piles (Arsha), fistula-in-ano (Bhagandara), fissure-in-ano (Parikartika), pilonidal sinus, and rectal polyps. These are often more complex than they look at first, and they get misdiagnosed or overtreated in a lotta places. That’s where our classical tools come in—Ksharasutra therapy, Agnikarma, and a few other para-surgical techniques we follow from the Samhitas...they’ve been lifesavers honestly. My work here pushes me to keep refining surgical precision while also sticking to the Ayurvedic core. I do rely on modern diagnostics when needed, but I won’t replace the value of a well-done Nadi Pariksha or assessing dosha-vikruti in depth. Most of my patients come with pain, fear, and usually after a couple of rounds of either incomplete surgeries or just being fed painkillers n antibiotics. And I totally get that frustration. That’s why I combine surgery with a whole support plan—Ayurvedic meds, diet changes, lifestyle tweaks that actually match their prakriti. Not generic stuff off a handout. Over time, I’ve seen that when people follow the whole protocol, not just the procedure part, the recurrence drops a lot. I’m quite particular about follow-up and wound care too, ‘cause we’re dealing with delicate areas here and ignoring post-op can ruin outcomes. Oh and yeah—I care a lot about educating folks too. I talk to patients in OPD, sometimes give community talks, just to tell people they do have safer options than cutting everything out under GA! I still study Shalya Tantra like it’s a living document. I try to stay updated with whatever credible advancements are happening in Ayurvedic surgery, but I filter what’s fluff and what’s actually useful. At the end of the day, my aim is to offer respectful, outcome-based care that lets patients walk out without shame or fear. That’s really what keeps me grounded in this field.
