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 am Dr. Irfon, currently pursuing my Master of Surgery (M.S.) in Shalakya Tantra—an Ayurvedic specialty focused on the diagnosis and management of diseases related to the head and neck region, including the eyes, ears, nose, throat, and oral cavity. This field allows me to combine detailed anatomical understanding with the timeless principles of Ayurveda for comprehensive patient care. Alongside my postgraduate studies, I have cultivated strong clinical acumen through hands-on experience in both institutional and independent Ayurvedic practice. My foundation in Kerala-based Panchakarma therapies—renowned for their purification and rejuvenation benefits—has equipped me to manage chronic conditions with deeper detox protocols and personalized therapeutic interventions. I practiced independently for six months at Kottakkal Ayurveda Clinic, where I treated a variety of cases using internal medicines, external therapies, and tailored dietary and lifestyle modifications. My six-month Diagnostic Residency Program (DRP) at Shree Narayana Hospital further sharpened my diagnostic skills, particularly in integrating classical Ayurvedic assessment with practical clinical decision-making. Currently, I am engaged in developing an Ayurvedic herbal serum aimed at addressing premature graying of hair, inspired by classical Rasayana formulations and adapted for modern hair care demands. My core interests lie in chronic disease management, preventive healthcare, stress-induced imbalances, and skin and scalp disorders. I approach each case with a deep respect for the uniqueness of the individual, offering treatment plans that align with their prakriti (constitution), lifestyle, and health goals. With every patient interaction, my goal is to provide evidence-informed, tradition-rooted Ayurvedic care that brings balance, clarity, and long-term wellness.

I am an Ayurvedic physician with clinical experience in both integrative and specialized care settings. I have served as the Clinic Head at Madhavbaug, Bangalore, where I was responsible for overseeing patient management, conducting personalized Ayurvedic consultations, and coordinating treatment plans for lifestyle-related disorders such as diabetes, hypertension, obesity, and cardiac conditions. This role allowed me to deeply understand preventive cardiology from an Ayurvedic perspective while working in a structured clinical environment. In addition to this, I worked as a duty doctor at a maternal care hospital, where I gained valuable hands-on experience in managing women’s health concerns including antenatal care, postnatal recovery, and common gynecological conditions. My time in this setting helped me integrate Ayurvedic approaches with modern maternal care practices, offering holistic solutions that support women throughout different stages of life. Across both roles, I have remained committed to providing root-cause-based treatment, blending classical Ayurvedic principles with lifestyle modifications and practical guidance suited to the modern patient. My approach is centered around empathetic listening, clinical precision, and individualized care. I believe that Ayurveda has the power not only to treat symptoms but to transform one’s overall health and well-being through natural, sustainable methods. With a strong foundation in classical knowledge and modern clinical exposure, I strive to empower my patients with tools for long-term wellness—whether it's through diet and lifestyle counseling, Ayurvedic formulations, or detox therapies like Panchakarma. My goal is to guide each individual toward balance, vitality, and a deeper understanding of their own health.

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 am a passionate and responsible Ayurvedic doctor, having completed my internship at the renowned VPSV Ayurveda College, Kottakkal, Kerala. My clinical journey has been shaped by the rich traditions of Kerala Ayurveda, where I gained extensive hands-on experience in diagnosing and treating patients with authentic Ayurvedic therapies. I am dedicated to delivering personalized and holistic healthcare, with a focus on preventive medicine and positive lifestyle modification. I actively counsel my patients on achieving optimal health through balanced diet, daily regimen, stress management, and natural therapies. Additionally, I am a certified Smrithi Meditation Consultant from the Kottakkal Ayurveda School of Excellence, which allows me to integrate meditation and mindfulness techniques into my treatment protocols, promoting mental well-being along with physical health. My approach is rooted in compassion, responsibility, and a commitment to empowering patients on their journey towards complete wellness.

I am an Ayurvedic physician with hands-on clinical experience from two well-regarded institutions. I completed six months of practical training at Patanjali Ayurved Hospital, where I was actively involved in patient consultation, Ayurvedic diagnosis, and implementation of classical Panchakarma therapies. My time there helped me strengthen my understanding of traditional formulations, personalized diet and lifestyle guidance, and integrative approaches rooted in ancient Ayurvedic principles. Following that, I served for another six months at the Government Hospital in Bahadrabad, Haridwar. During this tenure, I worked in a fast-paced environment, managing a diverse range of cases under the supervision of senior medical officers. This role sharpened my diagnostic skills, improved my ability to handle acute and chronic conditions, and gave me a broader view of how Ayurvedic treatments can be effectively integrated into public healthcare systems. These experiences have allowed me to develop a balanced and holistic approach to patient care, combining classical Ayurvedic wisdom with practical clinical acumen. I place a strong emphasis on thorough patient history-taking, root-cause analysis, and long-term wellness planning. I am especially focused on building trust and communication with patients and continuously learning from both traditional texts and real-world practice. My clinical exposure has given me confidence in managing common ailments such as digestive issues, stress-related disorders, joint pain, skin conditions, and seasonal illnesses, while tailoring treatments to each patient's unique constitution (Prakriti). With a foundation built on authentic Ayurvedic principles and reinforced through practical experience, I am committed to offering genuine, compassionate, and effective care to every patient I meet.

I have been practicing Ayurveda since 2010, with a deep commitment to holistic healing and patient-centered care. My journey in the field began as a Medical Officer at Gareja PHC in Porbandar, Gujarat (2006–2008), where I gained valuable grassroots-level clinical experience. In 2008, I expanded my perspective by working as an Ayurvedic Consultant in Berlin, Germany, which enriched my understanding of global wellness expectations and integrative approaches. Since 2010, I have been serving as a Senior Ayurvedic Consultant at Aarsh Ayurveda Health Care in Porbandar. My core areas of expertise include classical Panchakarma therapies, Ayurvedic weight management, nutrition counseling, and Ayurvedic cosmetology. I have been managing Ayurvedic weight and lifestyle interventions since 2012 and have been practicing Ayurvedic cosmetology, including herbal skin and hair therapies, since 2015. I am known for being a patient listener and for forming strong, compassionate connections with those I treat. I believe that healing starts with being understood, and my consultative approach reflects this principle. My practice integrates traditional Ayurvedic wisdom with a personalized plan that suits the unique prakriti (constitution) and needs of each individual. Currently, I am in the process of launching a dedicated Garbh Sanskar Centre, where expectant mothers can benefit from Ayurvedic prenatal care, emotional well-being programs, and classical rituals designed to support healthy conception, pregnancy, and fetal development. With over a decade of diverse Ayurvedic practice, I strive to offer authentic, evidence-rooted care in a modern context. I aim to empower my patients with lifestyle changes, preventive care, and deep-rooted healing techniques that foster long-term wellness.

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.

Following this, I served as a Medical Officer at Uttaranchal Ayurved College, Dehradun, for 7 years, where I was actively involved in both patient care and academic responsibilities, refining my clinical skills and deepening my understanding of traditional Ayurvedic practices.
