Dr. Pranshu Gupta
Experience: | 1 year |
Education: | Uttrakhand Ayurved University |
Academic degree: | Bachelor of Ayurvedic Medicine and Surgery |
Area of specialization: | I am mostly working around lifestyle disorders these days—dyslipidemia, diabetes, high BP, that whole exhausting loop people get stuck in. I focus on preventive and therapeutic Ayurveda—not just giving medicines but figuring out why the body’s reacting the way it does. Sometimes it’s the food. Sometimes the timing. Or just unprocessed stress that shows up as sugar spikes. I use research-based protocols too; was part of a double-blind RCT on LIPIDIOM for cholesterol issues, which honestly taught me more than any classroom ever did.
I do a lot of Panchakarma work too—mainly for people who've tried everything and nothing worked. Not just detox but structured interventions that restore balance, like proper basti or virechana when needed. And yeah, I handle OPD and IPD both, which means I get to see both quick walk-ins and complex, long-form recovery cases. It’s tiring. Also kinda amazing.
My rehab and aftercare plans usually involve counseling—simple language, practical diet charts, maybe habit tweaks they can follow instead of some textbook ideal. Not everyone wants a major life overhaul, and that’s fine. I just try to nudge systems back toward alignment. |
Achievements: | I am someone who doesn’t really chase titles, but yeah—some things I’m kinda proud of. I was Co-PI in a double-blind RCT on dyslipidemia (LIPIDIOM drug), which taught me tons about clinical trial logic and chaos. My papers got published—on stuff like cancer care in Ayurveda, the weird harms of sugary drinks, and Karkatshringi’s cancer role (IJPS, WJPR, GJRA—2024). I’m GCP certified, did WHO-SEARO courses on NCDs, diabetic foot, and palliative care. Also—random but cool—I was part of the Susruta Samhita world record thing!! |
I am Dr. Pranshu Gupta and honestly—most days, I don’t think of myself as just “Ayurvedic physician,” more like someone trying to help people untangle what their bodies are actually trying to say. I did my BAMS from Patanjali Bhartiya Ayurvigyan Evam Anusandhan Sansthan in Haridwar, and yeah that place really shaped the way I think about health—not just symptoms, but systems. Later I took up PGTP in Garbhasanskar from NIA, Jaipur because I felt antenatal care needed way more than the usual checklist-style attention. Right now I’m working at both Patanjali Ayurved Chikitsalaya and the Sub-District Hospital in Roorkee. The mix of those two setups kinda keeps me balanced—one lets me follow long-term wellness plans, the other forces quick decisions for acute stuff, which sharpens your eye honestly. I deal with everything from minor seasonal complaints to complicated chronic disorders, and while I do use Panchakarma when it fits, I’m just as invested in helping people avoid ending up there in the first place. My patients tell me they feel heard, which I didn’t expect to matter so much at first. But it really does. People carry their pain differently once they realize you’re actually listening. And I’m big on explaining things—not dumbing them down, just making it make sense. Like, what exactly is “ama” or how “agni” affects your skin or your moods? That stuff needs clarity not mysticism. What I’ve learned over the years is, most cases aren’t just about herbs or therapies. It’s the micro habits, the stress load, the food, the timing. I always try to blend classical Ayurvedic principles with updated evidence from modern health research. Ayurveda’s adaptable like that—if we let it be. I also spend a lot of time with preventive strategies. Not everyone’s in a crisis—some just don’t want to end up in one. And that’s valid. Whether it’s a couple dealing with fertility worries, or a diabetic patient who's tired of juggling sugar spikes—I work with them to build back longterm stability, not just patch symptoms for the week. I don’t think healing is linear. Sometimes we go forward, sometimes sideways... but as long as people feel safer and more in control of their own health—then I know I’m doing something that actually matters.
