Academic degree: | Doctor of Medicine in Ayurveda |
Area of specialization: | I am mostly seeing patients with thyroid issues, especially hypothyroidism—it shows up a lot more than people realise honestly. Women in particular come in tired, gaining weight, mood swings, digestion off... and many times they don’t even know their thyroid’s acting up. I focus on bringing back balance naturally through Ayurved, not just suppressing symptoms.
PCOS is another area I work closely with. It’s tricky, cause it’s not just about irregular periods or acne—there’s insulin resistance, sleep mess, mental stress mixed in. I try to get to root level—hormonal & metabolic correction, not just herbs. Each case really needs it's own pace.
Also managing hypertension cases (some mild, some quite chronic), plus arthritis—mostly knee & back related, esp in older folks. Panchkarma and daily routine shifts help here, though ya not everyone sticks with it... that's the hard part.
Gastric issues? Big part of my practice too—acidity, bloating, IBS-types complaints. Most are tied to food patterns and stress, I think people underestimate both. |
Achievements: | I am someone who kind of juggled teaching and clinical work side by side—and weirdly I enjoyed both?? I got awarded *Best Academecian under 40* which was...unexpected but honestly meant a lot. Research-wise too, I was lucky to recieve a few recognitions for my work—stuff that went deep into Ayurvedic protocols and patient outcomes. Not always flashy topics, but important. These awards kinda pushed me to keep going even when the process got real slow or messy. |
I am running Swasthayu Ayurved Clinic since 18 years now—yeah, that long, tho honestly doesn’t always feel like it. Started this journey with just one goal in mind: to give people a space where Ayurved actually *works* in real life, not just on paper. Over time, that turned into a full-fledged clinic with Panchkarma therapies, long-term patient care, and a lot of learning along the way (some of it the hard way, not gonna lie). My main focus is classical Ayurved & Panchkarma—like, not diluted or half-done versions, but deep, rooted stuff based on actual *shastra*. I’ve treated people for all sorts of chronic and lifestyle issues—joint pain, hormonal problems, skin troubles, digestive mess, stress burnout kind of things... things that don’t just get fixed with pills. Most cases I see are layered. And I mean emotionally, physically, even socially tangled. That's why Panchkarma works well—it’s not just detox or relaxation therapy like ppl think, it’s system reset. But you need to *understand* prakruti, agni, doshas first. Otherwise it doesn’t hold. Clinic’s not a fancy place with screens everywhere, but we make time for real conversations. I do all consultations myself. Some come just to ask doubts, others come after trying 4–5 other places already. Both are welcome. And if someone’s expecting a quick fix, I usually tell them upfront—it’ll take time. Natural healing’s not a shortcut. But ya, once they start feeling even small shifts, they stick. Being the director all these years means dealing with admin too (which I honestly don’t love, but hey it comes with it). Still, patient care always stays at the center. That part never gets boring. Not every day’s perfect. Some treatments don’t go as planned, sometimes people drop off in between, or I doubt myself if the line of treatment was right. But then, seeing long-term patients bounce back after months—that’s something I can’t really explain. It makes the whole thing feel worth it, y'know? Swasthayu’s been my life’s work in a way. Ayurved and Panchkarma aren't just things I practice—they're how I understand health itself.
