I am deeply passionate about the healing science of Ayurveda and firmly believe that even complex pathological conditions can be effectively managed through Ayurvedic principles when combined with appropriate treatment, lifestyle modifications, and diet. My approach to patient care is rooted in understanding the individual constitution (Prakriti) and identifying the imbalanced doshas that contribute to disease manifestation. After completing my BAMS degree, I have gained hands-on clinical experience for over a year, focusing on chronic lifestyle disorders such as hypertension, diabetes mellitus, and obesity. These conditions often stem from long-standing dietary errors, stress, and inactivity, and I strive to address not just the symptoms but the root causes through a holistic, individualized approach. During consultations, I begin by listening closely to the patient's complaints and history, followed by a detailed assessment of their Prakriti and doshic imbalance. I also take into account any previous medical treatments or diagnoses. Based on this comprehensive evaluation, I design personalized treatment protocols that include herbal medications, diet recommendations, and lifestyle adjustments tailored to the patient’s unique constitution and presenting symptoms. While I am committed to the Ayurvedic system of healing, I also recognize the value of integrative care. In cases where immediate intervention is required, I support the inclusion of emergency allopathic treatment when necessary, always keeping the patient’s well-being as the highest priority. My ultimate goal as a practitioner is not just to treat disease but to restore harmony in body and mind, guiding each patient toward long-term health through safe, natural, and effective Ayurvedic care.

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.
