Experience: | 1 year |
Education: | Government Ayurveda Medical College and Hospital |
Academic degree: | Bachelor of Ayurvedic Medicine and Surgery |
Area of specialization: | I am an Ayurvedic physican and for the past year I’ve been based at Govt Ayurvedic Medical Hospital in Mysore—where honestly I got to see Ayurveda working in real time, not just in theory. I handled both OPD and IPD cases, which meant jumping into a wide range of stuff—arthritis, eczema, acid peptic issues, low agni cases, and ppl just feeling tired all the time with no real label for it. And yeah, that variety kept me on my toes.
A lot of my time went into prakriti-vikriti assessment, recommending food tweaks, routine shifts, small but meaningful changes. I also did hands-on panchakarma assistance—abhyanga setups, basti prep, observing vamana and virechana sessions. Some days I’d be noting vitals and documenting, other days I’d be adjusting a plan because the patient's sleep fell off or their appetite dropped midway.
I worked closely with seniors who had literal decades of experience, and watching how they adapted textbook knowledge to real ppl—seasonal changes, digestive strength, age, stress levels—helped me rewire how I thought about treatment. I also took part in public health drives—screenings, digestion and flu camps, skin talks. Wasn’t flashy work, but it connected me with community medicine directly.
I’m mainly interested in lifestyle disorders, gut issues, joint pain, and stress-related imbalances. I try not to just “treat symptoms”—I look at why this showed up now, and where it’s likely headed if we don’t shift anything. And honestly, that kind of deeper view takes time but feels way more real. I focus on clear, doable treatment plans based in classical Ayurveda, but still modern-life friendly. |
Achievements: | I am an Ayurvedic doctor and one thing I feel kinda proud of is seeing real change in cases that were stuck for years. I’ve managed chronic non-healing ulcers and patchy stubborn psoriasis using self-prepared herbal blends—nothing fancy, just things tailored to that person’s dosha, dhatu, and skin response. Took some trial and adjusting but the results were solid, and not just on the surface.
In my practice, I’ve also worked with women dealing with tough gynecological conditions like PCOD, adenomyosis and endometriosis. Not just symptom control—I go deep into cycle history, digestion, stress links, and try to build the plan around actual root-cause stuff. Most ppl don’t get that kind of personalized attention elsewhere, and when they do, it really starts shifting their system.
I don’t use one-size-fits-all anything. Every formulation or routine I suggest comes from matching classical Ayurvedic principles with what that body needs at that moment. The work’s slow sometimes, but it’s clean and intentional. That’s the kind of healing I try to stand by. |
I am an Ayurvedic physician and for the last year I’ve been working at the Government Ayurvedic Medical Hospital in Mysore—which honestly gave me a solid ground to start from. It’s not always easy jumping into OPD/IPD right after college, but this setup helped me stay close to classical texts and clinical reality. I got to see a good mix of chronic and acute cases, and yeah, the variety taught me a lot, fast. Everyday work included case documentation, figuring out prakriti-vikriti combinations, suggesting diet corrections, doing follow-ups... but also hands-on work in Panchakarma. Whether it was abhyanga, basti prep, or observing vamana protocols, I assisted wherever I was needed, which means I had to be quick with adapting. And no, not every patient responds the way the books say—there’s always something unexpected. I worked alongside seniors with 10–15 years of experience and that was huge. Their approach to diagnosis, the way they’d read between symptoms, or modify classical formulations based on season or digestive state—that stuff isn’t taught in theory. I started noticing those patterns myself in cases of arthritis, eczema, IBS-like gut issues, or people walking in with stress and fatigue and no clear “diagnosis”. Besides the hospital routine, I also joined in on local health camps and public awareness drives, especially around seasonal flu, skin health and digestive wellness. It was more than just screenings—it felt like educating people on how to catch problems early, when Ayurveda actually works best. I don’t just focus on chasing symptoms. I try to step back, ask why now, not just what is it. Every patient gets a different plan because, honestly, no two bodies behave the same—even if the disease name is same. I stay rooted in Ayurvedic fundamentals, but I always look at what's sustainable for the patient. Whether it's a shift in meal timing or reducing screen time, small changes can shift things big time. This year gave me a base—solid but still in progress. I’m learning every day. And I want to keep evolving into someone who can offer clean, practical, rooted care that actually helps ppl feel better.
