I am currently a PG second-year student in the Shalakya Tantra department at Parul Institute of Ayurveda and Research (2024 batch). I completed my UG and immediately joined PG in a regular batch. I secured the university second rank in Pondicherry University (CCRAS syllabus) at Rajiv Gandhi Ayurveda Medical College (2017 batch). With exposure to both modern and Ayurvedic knowledge of all eye diseases, I am also skilled in cornea and cataract surgeries. During my deputation in the second year of PG, I was trained to handle 200+ patients in 1-2 hours. I secured a distinction in my first-year PG with 82%, achieving department first and university first at Parul Institute of Ayurveda and Research, Vadodara, Gujarat.

I hold an MD in Ayurveda (2020) and bring several years of focused clinical experience in holistic patient care, particularly in Panchakarma therapy and women’s health. My journey began with a deep-rooted interest in traditional Ayurvedic practices, and over time, I’ve developed a well-rounded approach to treating chronic and lifestyle-related conditions using classical Ayurvedic principles. During my tenure of over 2.5 years at Shathayu Ayurveda, I had the opportunity to treat a wide range of patients with chronic ailments and hormonal imbalances, while honing my skills in Panchakarma protocols and personalized Ayurvedic therapies. Currently, I serve as a consulting physician at Dr. Rekha’s Ayurveda, where I continue to provide evidence-based, compassionate care tailored to each patient’s individual constitution (Prakriti) and imbalances (Vikriti). My core focus areas include menstrual disorders, PCOS, infertility, menopausal care, and general gynecological wellness through Ayurvedic interventions. I also work extensively with patients seeking detoxification, stress management, and immune support through Panchakarma procedures. With a strong foundation in classical texts and a modern clinical approach, I aim to bridge traditional wisdom with current health concerns. I believe in building strong doctor-patient relationships based on trust, active listening, and clear guidance, ensuring that every patient receives not just treatment, but a path to long-term health and well-being. My ongoing learning and patient-centered outlook continue to guide my practice as I strive to uphold the timeless values of Ayurveda in today’s healthcare landscape.

I am Dr. P. Prasad, and I have accumulated over 20 years of experience working across multiple medical specialties, including General Medicine, Neurology, Dermatology, and Cardiology. Throughout my career, I have had the opportunity to diagnose and manage a wide range of health conditions, helping patients navigate both acute and chronic medical challenges. My exposure to these diverse fields has given me a comprehensive understanding of the human body and its interconnected systems. Whether it is managing general medical conditions, neurological disorders, skin diseases, or heart-related issues, I approach every case with careful attention to detail and evidence-based practices. I believe in providing accurate diagnosis, patient education, and treatment that is both effective and tailored to the individual’s specific needs. I place great emphasis on patient-centered care, where listening, understanding, and clear communication play a vital role. Over the years, I have seen how combining clinical knowledge with empathy can significantly improve treatment outcomes and patient satisfaction. With two decades of continuous learning and hands-on experience, I am committed to staying updated with the latest medical advancements and integrating them into my daily practice. My goal has always been to deliver high-quality, ethical, and compassionate medical care that addresses not just the illness but the overall well-being of my patients.

I bring with me over 5 years of dedicated experience in Ayurvedic clinical practice, with a focused approach toward the management of musculoskeletal, neurological, dermatological, and lifestyle-related disorders. My treatment philosophy is rooted in the classical principles of Ayurveda, combined with a personalized understanding of each patient’s constitution and disease pattern. Over the years, I have successfully managed a wide range of musculoskeletal conditions such as arthritis, cervical spondylosis, lumbar disc issues, and joint stiffness using Ayurvedic therapies including Abhyanga, Kati Basti, Patra Pinda Sweda, and tailored internal medications. In the domain of neurological disorders, I have worked extensively on cases involving neuropathy, sciatica, migraine, and early-stage neurodegenerative conditions, aiming to improve nerve function, reduce inflammation, and enhance quality of life through Panchakarma and Rasayana therapies. I also address chronic skin disorders such as eczema, psoriasis, acne, and fungal infections by identifying root imbalances and supporting detoxification, digestion, and skin regeneration with classical herbs and diet modifications. In today’s fast-paced lifestyle, I have found it essential to also focus on managing lifestyle disorders like obesity, hypothyroidism, stress, diabetes, and hypertension. I offer comprehensive care plans that combine Ayurvedic medicines, lifestyle correction, yoga, and diet counseling to address both symptoms and long-term wellness. My goal is to provide compassionate, root-cause-based care that empowers patients to take charge of their health using the timeless wisdom of Ayurveda. Through regular follow-ups, patient education, and integrative support, I strive to ensure that every patient not only recovers but also thrives with balance and vitality.

I’m Dr. Maitri, a second-year MD scholar specializing in Dravyaguna (Ayurvedic Pharmacology), with a strong foundation in classical Ayurvedic herbs and their therapeutic applications. I currently run my own Ayurvedic clinic in Ranoli, where I have been practicing for the past two years, offering personalized treatment plans rooted in the principles of Ayurveda. My clinical focus includes the management of PCOD, skin and hair disorders, and joint-related conditions such as arthritis, stiffness, and back pain. By integrating my academic training with hands-on experience, I strive to provide treatments that are both effective and sustainable. I place a strong emphasis on understanding each patient’s prakriti (individual constitution) and tailor therapies using medicinal herbs, dietary corrections (ahara), and lifestyle guidance (vihara) to restore balance and long-term health. Having a background in Dravyaguna allows me to apply the power of plant-based medicine with precision. I deeply study the rasa, guna, virya, vipaka, and prabhava of each herb before selecting them for my formulations. This ensures that my prescriptions are not just symptomatic but deeply curative, targeting the root causes of disease. In my practice, I have seen encouraging results in cases of hormonal imbalance, acne, pigmentation, premature hair fall, and chronic joint pain. I also guide patients through seasonal detox plans and rejuvenation therapies to enhance vitality and prevent recurrence of illness. I am passionate about making Ayurveda understandable and practical for today’s lifestyle. Whether it’s managing modern-day metabolic issues or offering natural beauty solutions, my goal is to empower patients with holistic tools for long-term well-being. As I continue my postgraduate journey, I remain committed to deepening my knowledge in medicinal plants and applying that wisdom to help patients heal naturally and completely.

I have been practicing as a Consulting Ayurvedic Physician since 1990, with over three decades of clinical experience in treating a wide range of chronic and lifestyle-related health conditions. My core areas of focus include hair disorders, skin diseases, and lifestyle disorders such as diabetes, arthritis, and stress-related imbalances. Over the years, I have developed a patient-centric approach that emphasizes deep-rooted healing through authentic Ayurvedic principles. My treatment philosophy is based on understanding the unique constitution (prakriti) and imbalance (vikriti) of each patient, allowing me to craft individualized care plans using classical formulations, diet corrections, detox therapies (shodhana), and lifestyle modifications. Whether it’s persistent hair fall, recurring skin allergies, or long-term metabolic disorders, I aim to address the root cause rather than just suppress symptoms. In the management of lifestyle disorders like diabetes and arthritis, I integrate Ayurvedic medicines with structured dinacharya (daily routines) and ahar (dietary guidance), focusing on sustainable results and long-term wellness. I also work extensively with stress-related concerns, offering holistic strategies that incorporate mind-body practices, including meditation, herbal support, and counseling rooted in Ayurveda. With a strong foundation in traditional Ayurvedic texts and decades of hands-on experience, I remain committed to providing safe, natural, and effective healthcare solutions. My goal is to guide patients toward a balanced life, free from chronic ailments, through personalized treatment protocols that restore harmony to both body and mind.

I am a Senior Ayurveda Physician with over 28 years of clinical experience dedicated to the principles and practice of authentic Ayurvedic medicine. Throughout my journey, I have had the privilege of treating more than 100,000 patients through both in-person consultations and online platforms. My approach is deeply rooted in classical Ayurvedic diagnostics—such as Nadi Pariksha (pulse examination), Roga-Rogi Pariksha (patient and disease evaluation), and a personalized assessment of prakriti (body constitution). Over the years, I have successfully managed a wide range of health conditions across all age groups—from acute infections and digestive issues to chronic and lifestyle disorders such as arthritis, diabetes, respiratory ailments, hormonal imbalances, and autoimmune conditions. I place strong emphasis on individualized care, combining herbal formulations, Panchakarma detox therapies, and dietary and lifestyle guidance to ensure long-term healing and disease prevention. My extensive experience also includes addressing complex, chronic illnesses that require a deep understanding of both the pathology and the patient’s overall constitution. I have worked with patients who had previously struggled with little success in other systems of medicine, and have guided many toward sustainable recovery and improved quality of life. Whether treating elderly patients with degenerative disorders or young adults facing hormonal or metabolic challenges, I strive to offer care that is compassionate, comprehensive, and evidence-informed. My goal is to empower patients with Ayurvedic wisdom so they can take an active role in their healing journey. I continue to remain updated with the evolving landscape of integrative health and value the importance of patient education, ethical practice, and consistent follow-up. For me, Ayurveda is not just a profession, but a lifelong commitment to restoring balance and promoting well-being, one patient at a time.
