HELLO PRERNA SHARMA,

YOU ARE DEALING WITH FOUR INTERCONNECTED ISSUES -Splenomegaly(enlarged spleen ) -Thrombocytopenia(low platelets ~ 50,000) -Fatty liver(hepatic steatosis) -Cholelithiasis(Gall bladder stone)

How they’re connected -The liver, spleen, and gallbladder are all interlinked -A sluggish liver can lead to blood purification issues->spleen over works->spleen enlarges and traps platelets -Digestion imbalance creates Ama(toxins)-> stored in fat-> leads to fatty liver and gallstones.

INVOLVED DOSHAS PITTA= aggravated due to faulty liver metabolism, bile issues, and inflammation KAPHA= increased due to fat accumulation and bile stagnation VATA= imbalanced due to improper circulation and organ function

INVOLVED DHATUS RAKTA DHATU= impaired(leading to poor platelet formation and blood purify) MEDA DHATU= excessive (fatty liver) RASA DHATU= weak (digestion and nutrient absorption issues)

INVOLVED SROTAS(body channels) RAKTAVAHA SROTAS- carries blood(impaired in platelet and spleen disorders) MEDOVAHA SROTAS- caries fat(obstructed in fatty liver) ANNAVAHA SROTAS- digestive system(ama formation) PURISHAVAHA SROTAS- colon channel(possible irregular elimination)

TREATMENT GOAL -Detoxify liver and spleen= prevent further damage and restore function -Improve rakta and rasa dhatu= build healthy blood and immunity -Reduce spleen size= through anti-inflammatory and etox medications -Improve platelet production= via rejuvination and blood building medications -Correct fat metabolism= reduce liver fat -Prevent gallstone complications= enhance bile flow and digestion -Balance doshas= especially pitta-kapha dominance -Eliminate ama= clear toxins from gut and blood channels

INTERNAL MEDICATIONS

1) PUNARNAVA MANDUR= 2 tabs twice daily after meals for 3 months =spleen and liver tonic, reduces swelling

2) AROGYAVARDHINI VATI= 1 tab twice daily after meals for 3-4 months =detox liver, gallbladder, correct metabolism

3) KUMAR KALYAN RAS= 1 tab once daily with honey after breakfast for 1 month = strengthen spleen, supports immunity(best one)

4) DRAKSHASAVA= 20 ml with equal water after meals for 3 months =rejuvinates liver and spleen

5) TRIPHALA CHURNA= 1 tsp at bedtime with warm water =detoxifies gut, support bile flow

6) BHUMIAMLA JUICE= 10 ml twice daily for 2-3 months =liver protective, reduces fatty liver

7) GUDUCHI GHAN VATI= 500 mg 1 tab twice daily =immunity and blood purifier

PAPAYA LEAF EXTREACT CAPSULE= 1 cap twice daily for 4 weeks =boosts platelet count naturally OR PLATONE BY DOOTPAPESHWAR = 1 tab twice daily =platelet booster

EXTERNAL THERAPIES(at panchakarma centre) -Virechana= removes excess pitta, clears liver and gallbladder -Basti= Balances Vata, enhances fat metabolism -Abhyanga+Swedana= stimulates lymphatic system and improves organ damage -Raktamokshana= drains toxic blood in cases of extreme rakta dushti

HOME REMEDIES

RAW PAPAYA LEAVES= crush and take 2 tsp juice twice daily it boosts plateletes

AMLA JUICE= 20 ml with warm water in morning it acts as liver tonic, vitamin c

BEETROOT CARROT JUICE= 1 glass daily empty stomach, blood and liver tonic

BOILED GARLIC= 2-3 cloves daily, improves cholesterol and liver enzymes

FENUGREEK SEED WATER= soak 1 tsp overnight drink water in morning, detox and fat metabolism

CORAINDER SEED TEA= 1 tsp seeds boiled in water- drink twice daily, balances pitta and improves digestion

WARM CASTOR OIL (WEEKLY)= 1 tsp in warm water or milk before bed once weekly -mild purgation and liver cleansing

DIET TO BE FOLLOWED -khichadi, green moong dal, boiled rice, saag (greens) -Vegetables= lauki, pumpkin, beetroot, carrot, bitter gourd -Fruits= pomegranate, apple, papaya, watermelon -Spices= cumin, coriander, fennel, turmeric, ginger -Oils= small quantity of cold pressed sesame or coconut oil -Liquids= warm water, herbal teas(coriander-fennel)

AVOID -alcohol, smoking -fried, spicy, oily foods -red meat, processed food -cold foods-ice cream, cold drinks -curd, cheese, panner - esp at night -excess tea,coffee -excess salt and sugar

LIFESTYLE MODIFICATIONS -wake up time= by 6:30 am-follow circadian rhythm -excercise= light walking, yoga- avoid exhaustion -sleep= 7-8 hours, no daytime sleeping -meal timing= eat at same time daily, no late dinners -stress= reduce with pranayam, music, self care -avoid= holding natural urges(urine, gas, stool), overeating

YOGA AND PRANAYAM

ASANA(hold 30-60 seconds each) -Ardha matsyendrasana= improves digestion, liver, spleen -Bhujangasana= activates liver and kidneys -Paschimottanasana= improves metabolism -Dhanurasana= stimulate abdominal organs -Pawanmuktasana=removes gas and improves bowel health

PRANAYAM -anulom vilom= balances doshas and oxygentated blood -bhramari= reduces stress and inflammation -sheetali/sheetkari= calms excess pitta

INVESTIGATION = do these every 2-3 months -CBC- with platelets= to monitor thrombocytopenia - LFT= enzymes, bilirubin, fatty liver -Abdominal ultrasound= spleen size, liver fat, gallstones - to check -peripheral blood smear- for blood cell quality -iron, b12,folate= rule out other cause of low platelets -Autoimmune screening= in case of unresponsive platelet drop

Track platelet count every. 2 weeks

Avoid heavy exercise, sports with injury risk when platelets are low

-You can. reverse these conditions gradually if you follow the treatment sincerely -be consistent with medications, diet, gentle yoga and lifestyle -healing spleen, liver and blood takes 3-6 months

DO FOLLOW

HOPE THIS MIGHT BE HELPFUL

THANK YOU

I believe healing is not limited to procedures alone; it also requires compassion, communication, and continuity of care. That’s why I ensure each patient receives personalized guidance—from diagnosis and therapy to post-treatment care and preventive strategies. I also incorporate Ayurvedic principles like Ahara (diet), Vihara (lifestyle), and Satvavajaya (mental well-being) to promote complete healing and not just symptomatic relief. Whether it's managing complex surgical cases or advising on conservative Ayurvedic therapies, my goal is to restore balance and improve the quality of life through authentic, safe, and holistic care. As I continue to deepen my clinical knowledge and surgical acumen, I remain dedicated to evolving as a well-rounded Ayurvedic practitioner who integrates traditional practices with modern sensibilities.

HELLO PRERNA,

-LOW PLATELET(50,000) is serious. below 50,000 there Is bleeding risk -chronic splenomegaly suggests your sleep may be overactive , which might be destroying your platelets

-causes include -liver disease(e.g portal hypertension from fatty liver) -infections (e.g TB, Malaria, hepatitis) -hematologic issues(ITP, lymphoma, leukaemia) -autoimmune diseases

you need a full evaluation - CBC, LFT, viral markers, autoimmune work-up and possibly a bone marrow test if not done yet.

In Ayurveda, your case may be classified under -yakritodara-enlarged liver/spleen issues -pleeha vriddhi- splenomegaly -rakta Akshaya- low platelet count -medoroga- fatty liver

These are often rooted in Ama(toxins) accumulation, rakta dhatu vitiation, and pitta-kapha imbalance

AYURVEDIC MANAGEMENT PLAN

1) PANCHAKARMA DETOX -virechana= to cleanse liver and spleen -basti(medicated enema)- for balancing vata and improving platelet production -raktamokshana= sometimes used in pleeha vriddhi

MEDICATIONS

1) PUNARNAVA MANDUR= 2 tabs twice daily after meals for 3 months

2) LIV 52 DS= 2 tabs twice daily after meals for 3 months

3) GILOY SATVA= 500 mg with warm milk in morning empty stomach for 3 months

4) PAPAYA LEAF EXTRACT = 1 tab once daily with water for 21 days

5) KUTKI CHURNA= 1 gm before meals twice daily for 2 months

6) TRIPHALA CHURNA= 1 tsp with arm water at bedtime

7) ROHITAKARISHTA= 15ml + equal water twice daily after meals for 3 months

DIET -AVOID= oily, spicy, fried foods, red meat, alcohol, processed foods -FAVOUR -warm, cooked light meals- mung dal khichdi -steamed veggies- bitter gourd, bottle gourd, ridge gourd -fresh pomegranate, papaya, beetroot, carrot juices -warm water with turmeric -eat slowly and on time

LIFESTYLE -avoid heavy exertion and late nights -gentle yoga= pawanmuktaana, viparitara karani ,ardha matsyendrasana -avoid long fasting or crash diets

REPEAT -CBC -LFT -ultrasound

THANK YOU

My journey began with six months of hands-on experience in allopathic medicine at District Hospital Sitapur, where I was exposed to acute and chronic care in a high-volume clinical setting. This experience strengthened my diagnostic skills and deepened my understanding of patient care in an allopathic framework. Complementing this, I have also completed six months of clinical training in Ayurveda and Panchakarma, focusing on natural detoxification and rejuvenation therapies. During this time, I gained practical experience in classical Ayurvedic treatments, including Abhyanga, Basti, Shirodhara, and other Panchakarma modalities. I strongly believe in a patient-centric approach that blends the wisdom of Ayurveda with the clinical precision of modern medicine for optimal outcomes. Additionally, I hold certification in Garbha Sanskar, a specialized Ayurvedic discipline aimed at promoting holistic wellness during pregnancy. I am passionate about supporting maternal health and fetal development through time-tested Ayurvedic practices, dietary guidance, and lifestyle recommendations. My approach to healthcare emphasizes balance, preventive care, and customized wellness plans tailored to each individual’s constitution and health goals.

Managing an enlarged spleen, mild fatty liver and gallbladder stone, alongside low platelets, requires a comprehensive approach grounded in Ayurveda. Your imbalances may arise from vitiated doshas, particularly Pitta and potentially Kapha, impacting the liver and spleen functionalities. To address these issues, let’s consider dietary modifications, lifestyle changes, and possibly some herbal remedies.

Start with dietary habits. Adopt a Pitta-pacifying diet which is cooling and nourishing. Opt for foods that are easy on the liver—green leafy vegetables, beets, carrots, apples, and pomegranates are beneficial. Avoid refined sugar, deep-fried items, excess salt, red meat, and stimulants like caffeine or alcohol as they can aggravate Pitta. Ensure meals are regular, warm, and freshly cooked to support your agni (digestive fire).

In terms of lifestyle, stress reduction is key. Practice gentle yoga, pranayama, and meditation to enhance circulation and detoxification. Sleep at consistent times, ensuring 7-8 hours nightly, as imbalance in daily rhythms can exacerbate issues.

Herbal treatments might include Punarnava known for its liver and spleen benefits, but you should consult an Ayurvedic practitioner for personalized guidance. Moreover, Guduchi is another herb that enhances immunity and may aid platelet count. However, given the complexity of your conditions, self-prescribing is discouraged without professional oversight.

For gallbladder stone, unless symptomatic, aggressive intervention is often not immediately necessary, yet maintaining hydration and a healthy diet could mitigate further complications.

It’s crucial that you also maintain close consultation with a healthcare provider, particularly regarding your platelet levels. Regular monitoring and possibly conventional augmentative treatments may be necessary, as low platelets can pose significant health risks which require more immediate medical attention than what Ayurveda can provide alone. Always prioritize your safety and balance Ayurveda with allopathic consultations when necessary for complex conditions like yours.

Managing an enlarged spleen alongside a fatty liver and gallbladder stone involves a careful integrative approach. From an Ayurvedic perspective, this condition might arise due to imbalances in the doshas, particularly an aggravated Pitta and Kapha dosha, which can disrupt Agni (digestive fire) and affect the spleen’s function.

Firstly, address the spleen and liver by supporting your body’s detoxification processes. Triphala is an excellent herbal formulation that helps cleanse liver and spleen gently. Take 1 teaspoon of Triphala powder with warm water before bed. Prioritize improving your digestive fire. Incorporate ginger tea into your daily routine. Having a cup of warm ginger tea 2-3 times a day can stimulate digestion.

On the dietary side, focus on Pitta and Kapha soothing foods. Avoid oily, fried, and excessively spicy foods. Include foods like cooked vegetables, light grains, and warm soups. Minimize cold and heavy foods that can worsen Kapha imbalance. Bitter gourd and pumpkin are particularly beneficial for managing the spleen.

Since platelets are low, the nutritional status must be optimized. Incorporating fresh papaya leaf juice is known traditionally to help boost platelet count. Consume 2 tablespoons twice daily. Ensure you consult with your primary health provider before making any drastic dietary changes to monitor your platelet levels correctly.

For the gallbladder stone, maintaining a diet low in fat and high in fiber can prevent worsening of the condition. Continue monitoring your condition with consultations to prevent complications. Balancing stress through meditation or gentle yoga can avoid further Pitta aggravation.

Always seek immediate medical attention if symptoms persist or worsen, considering the complexity of your case and the significant low platelet count, to prevent any critical complications.

I am an Ayurvedic physician with an MD from AIIMS—yeah, the 2008 batch. That time kinda shaped everything for me... learning at that level really forces you to think deeper, not just follow protocol. Now, with 15+ years in this field, I mostly work with chronic stuff—autoimmune issues, gut-related problems, metabolic syndrome... those complex cases where symptoms overlap n patients usually end up confused after years of going in circles. I don’t rush to treat symptoms—I try to dig into what’s actually causing the system to go off-track. I guess that’s where my training really helps, especially when blending classical Ayurveda with updated diagnostics. I did get certified in Panchakarma & Rasayana therapy, which I use quite a lot—especially in cases where tissue-level nourishment or deep detox is needed. Rasayana has this underrated role in post-illness recovery n immune stabilization, which most people miss. I’m pretty active in clinical research too—not a full-time academic or anything, but I’ve contributed to studies on how Ayurveda helps manage diabetes, immunity burnout, stress dysregulation, things like that. It’s been important for me to keep a foot in that evidence-based space—not just because of credibility but because it keeps me from becoming too rigid in practice. I also get invited to speak at wellness events n some integrative health conferences—sharing ideas around patient-centered treatment models or chronic care via Ayurvedic frameworks. I practice full-time at a wellness centre that’s serious about Ayurveda—not just the spa kind—but real, protocol-driven, yet personalised medicine. Most of my patients come to me after trying a lot of other options, which makes trust-building a huge part of what I do every single day.

I am Dr Anurag Sharma, done with BAMS and also PGDHCM from IMS BHU, which honestly shaped a lot of how I approach things now in clinic. Working as a physician and also as an anorectal surgeon, I’ve got around 2 to 3 years of solid experience—tho like, every day still teaches me something new. I mainly focus on anorectal care (like piles, fissure, fistula stuff), plus I work with chronic pain cases too. Pain management is something I feel really invested in—seeing someone walk in barely managing and then leave with actual relief, that hits different. I’m not really the fancy talk type, but I try to keep my patients super informed, not just hand out meds n move on. Each case needs a bit of thinking—some need Ksharasutra or minor para surgical stuff, while others are just lifestyle tweaks and herbal meds. I like mixing the Ayurved principles with modern insights when I can, coz both sides got value really. It’s like—knowing when to go gentle and when to be precise. Right now I’m working hard on getting even better with surgical skills, but also want to help people get to me before surgery's the only option. Had few complicated cases where patience n consistency paid off—no shortcuts but yeah, worth it. The whole point for me is to actually listen first, like proper listen. People talk about symptoms but also say what they feel—and that helps in understanding more than any lab report sometimes. I just want to stay grounded in my work, and keep growing while doing what I can to make someone's pain bit less every day.

I am someone who kinda started out in both worlds—Ayurveda and allopathy—and that mix really shaped how I see health today. My clinical journey began with 6 months of hands-on allopathic exposure at District Hospital Sitapur. Honestly, that place was intense. Fast-paced, high patient flow, constant cases of chronic and acute illnesses coming through. That taught me a lot about how to see disease. Not just treat it, but like… notice the patterns, get better at real-time diagnosis, really listen to what the patient isn’t saying out loud sometimes. It gave me this sharper sense of clinical grounding which I think still stays with me. Then I moved more deeply into Ayurveda and spent another 6 months diving into clinical training focused on Panchakarma therapies. Stuff like Abhyanga, Basti, Shirodhara—learned those not just as a list of techniques, but how and when to use 'em, especially for detox and deep healing. Every case felt like a different puzzle. There wasn’t always one right answer, you know? And that’s where I found I loved adapting protocols based on what the person actually needed, not just what the textbook says. Alongside that, I got certified in Garbha Sanskar through structured training. That really pulled me closer to maternal health. Pregnancy support through Ayurveda isn’t just about herbs or massage, it’s like this entire way of guiding a mother-to-be toward nourishing the baby right from conception—emotionally, physically, all of it. That part stuck with me hard. My overall approach? It’s kinda fluid. I believe in balancing natural therapies and evidence-based thinking. Whether it's seasonal imbalance, hormonal issues, Panchakarma detox plans, or just guiding someone on long-term wellness—I like making people feel safe, heard, and actually understood. I’m not into rushing plans or masking symptoms. I’d rather work together with someone to build something sustainable that really suits their body and where they’re at. In a way, I’m still learning every day. But my focus stays the same—use Ayurvedic wisdom practically, compassionately, and in a way that just... makes sense in real life.

Dr. M.Sushma
I am Dr. Sushma M and yeah, I’ve been in Ayurveda for over 20 yrs now—honestly still learning from it every day. I mostly work with preventive care, diet logic, and prakriti-based guidance. I mean, why wait for full-blown disease when your body’s been whispering for years, right? I’m kinda obsessed with that early correction part—spotting vata-pitta-kapha imbalances before they spiral into something deeper. Most ppl don’t realize how much power food timing, digestion rhythm, & basic routine actually have… until they shift it. Alongside all that classical Ayurveda, I also use energy medicine & color therapy—those subtle layers matter too, esp when someone’s dealing with long-term fatigue or emotional heaviness. These things help reconnect not just the body, but the inner self too. Some ppl are skeptical at first—but when you treat *beyond* the doshas, they feel it. And I don’t force anything… I just kinda match what fits their nature. I usually take time understanding a person’s prakriti—not just from pulse or skin or tongue—but how they react to stress, sleep patterns, their relationship with food. That whole package tells the story. I don’t do textbook treatment lines—I build a plan that adjusts *with* the person, not on top of them. Over the years, watching patients slowly return to their baseline harmony—that's what keeps me in it. I’ve seen folks come in feeling lost in symptoms no one explained… and then walk out weeks later understanding their body better than they ever did. That, to me, is healing. Not chasing symptoms, but restoring rhythm. I believe true care doesn’t look rushed, or mechanical. It listens, observes, tweaks gently. That's the kind of Ayurveda I try to practice—not loud, but deeply rooted.

Dr. Prasad Pentakota
I am Dr. P. Prasad, and I’ve been in this field for 20+ years now, working kinda across the board—General Medicine, Neurology, Dermatology, Cardiology—you name it. Didn’t start out thinking I’d end up spanning that wide, but over time, each area sort of pulled me in deeper. And honestly, I like that mix. It lets me look at a patient not just through one lens but a whole system-wide view... makes more sense when treating something that won’t fit neatly in one category. I’ve handled everything from day-to-day stuff like hypertension, diabetes, or skin infections to more serious neuro and cardiac problems. Some cases are quick—diagnose, treat, done. Others take time, repeated check-ins, figuring out what’s really going on beneath those usual symptoms. And that’s where the detail matters. I’m pretty big on thorough diagnosis and patient education—because half the problem is ppl just not knowing what’s happening inside their own body. What’s changed for me over years isn’t just knowledge, it’s how much I lean on listening. If you miss what someone didn’t say, you might also miss their actual illness. And idk, after seeing it play out so many times, I do believe combining updated medical practice with basic empathy really shifts outcomes. Doesn’t have to be complicated... it just has to be consistent. I keep up with research too—new drugs, diagnostics, cross-specialty updates etc., not because it’s trendy, but cuz it’s necessary. Patients come in better read now than ever. You can’t afford to fall behind. The end goal’s the same tho—help them heal right, not just fast. Ethical practice, evidence-based, and sometimes just being there to explain what’s going on. That’s what I stick to.

Dr. Surya Bhagwati
I am a Senior Ayurveda Physician with more than 28 years in this field — and trust me, it still surprises me how much there is to learn every single day. Over these years, I’ve had the chance to treat over 1 lakh patients (probably more by now honestly), both through in-person consults and online. Some come in with a mild cough, others with conditions no one’s been able to figure out for years. Each case brings its own rhythm, and that’s where real Ayurveda begins. I still rely deeply on classical tools — *Nadi Pariksha*, *Roga-Rogi Pariksha*, proper *prakriti-vikriti* mapping — not just ticking symptoms into a list. I don’t believe in ready-made cures or generic charts. Diagnosis needs attention. I look at how the disease behaves *inside* that specific person, which doshas are triggering what, and where the imbalance actually started (hint: it’s usually not where the pain is). Over the years I’ve worked with pretty much all age groups and all kinds of health challenges — from digestive upsets & fevers to chronic, autoimmune, hormonal, metabolic and degenerative disorders. Arthritis, diabetes, PCOD, asthma, thyroid... but also things like unexplained fatigue or joint swelling that comes and goes randomly. Many of my patients had already “tried everything else” before they walked into Ayurveda, and watching their systems respond slowly—but surely—is something I don’t take lightly. My line of treatment usually combines herbal formulations (classical ones, not trendy ones), Panchakarma detox when needed, and realistic dietary and lifestyle corrections. Long-term healing needs long-term clarity — not just short bursts of symptom relief. And honestly, I tell patients that too. I also believe patient education isn’t optional. I explain things. Why we’re doing virechana, why the oil changed mid-protocol, why we pause or shift the meds after a few weeks. I want people to feel involved, not confused. Ayurveda works best when the patient is part of the process, not just receiving instructions. Even now I keep learning — through texts, talks, patient follow-ups, sometimes even mistakes that taught me what not to do. And I’m still committed, still fully into it. Because for me, this isn’t just a job. It’s a lifelong responsibility — to restore balance, protect *ojas*, and help each person live in tune with themselves. That’s the real goal.

Dr. Keerthana PV
I am an Ayurvedic doctor who kinda grew into this path naturally—my roots are in Kerala, and I did my internship at VPSV Ayurveda College in Kottakkal, which honestly was one of the most eye-opening stages of my life. That place isn’t just a college, it’s a deep well of real Ayurveda. The kind that’s lived, not just studied. During my time there, I didn’t just observe—I *practiced*. Diagnosing, treating, understanding the patient beyond their symptoms, all that hands-on stuff that textbooks don’t really teach. It’s where I learned the rhythm of classical Kerala Ayurveda, the art of pulse reading, and how Panchakarma ain’t just about detox but more about deep repair. I work closely with patients—always felt more like a guide than just a doctor tbh. Whether it's about fixing a chronic issue or preventing one from happening, I focus on the full picture. I give a lot of attention to diet (pathya), routine, mental clutter, and stress stuff. Counseling on these isn’t an ‘extra’—I see it as a part of healing. And not the preachy kind either, more like what works *for you*, your lifestyle, your space. Also yeah—I’m a certified Smrithi Meditation Consultant from Kottakkal Ayurveda School of Excellence. This kinda allowed me to mix mindfulness with medicine, which I find super important, especially in today’s distracted world. I integrate meditation where needed—some patients need a virechana, some just need to breathe better before they sleep. There’s no one-size-fits-all and I kinda like that part of my job the most. I don’t claim to know it all, but I listen deeply, treat with care, and stay true to the Ayurvedic principles I was trained in. My role feels less about ‘curing’ and more about nudging people back to their natural balance... it’s not quick or flashy, but it feels right.

Dr. Anjali Sehrawat
I am Dr. Anjali Sehrawat. Graduated BAMS from National College of Ayurveda & Hospital, Barwala (Hisar) in 2023—and right now I'm doing my residency, learning a lot everyday under senior clinicians who’ve been in the field way longer than me. It’s kind of intense but also really grounding. Like, it makes you pause before assuming anything about a patient. During my UG and clinical rotations, I got good hands-on exposure... not just in diagnosing through Ayurvedic nidan but also understanding where and when Allopathic tools (like lab reports or acute interventions) help fill the gap. I really believe that if you *actually* want to heal someone, you gotta see the whole picture—Ayurveda gives you that depth, but you also need to know when modern input is useful, right? I’m more interested in chronic & lifestyle disorders—stuff like metabolic imbalances, stress-linked issues, digestive problems that linger and slowly pull energy down. I don’t rush into giving churnas or kashayams just bcz the texts say so... I try to see what fits the patient’s prakriti, daily habits, emotional pattern etc. It’s not textbook-perfect every time, but that’s where the real skill grows I guess. I do a lot of thinking abt cause vs symptom—sometimes it's not the problem you see that actually needs solving first. What I care about most is making sure the treatment is safe, ethical, practical, and honest. No overpromising, no pushing meds that don’t fit. And I’m always reading or discussing sth—old Samhitas or recent journals, depends what the case demands. My goal really is to build a practice where people feel seen & understood, not just “managed.” That's where healing actually begins, right?

Dr. Nisha Bisht
I am an Ayurvedic physician with over 10 years of real, everyday experience—both in the clinical side and in managing systems behind the scenes. My journey started at Jiva Ayurveda in Faridabad, where I spent around 3 years juggling in-clinic and telemedicine consultations. That time taught me how different patient care can look when it’s just you, the person’s voice, and classical texts. No fancy setups—just your grasp on nidan and your ability to *listen properly*. Then I moved into a Medical Officer role at Uttaranchal Ayurved College in Dehradun, where I stayed for 7 years. It was more than just outpatient care—I was also involved in academic work, teaching students while continuing to treat patients. That phase really pushed me to re-read things with new eyes. You explain something to students one day and then end up applying it differently the next day on a patient. The loop between theory and practice became sharper there. Right now, I’m working as Deputy Medical Superintendent at Shivalik Hospital (part of the Shivalik Ayurved Institute in Dehradun). It’s a dual role—consulting patients *and* making sure the hospital ops run smooth. I get to ensure that the Ayurvedic care we deliver is both clinically sound and logistically strong. From patient case planning to supporting clinical staff and overseeing treatment quality—I keep an eye on all of it. Across all these years, my focus hasn’t changed much—I still work to blend classical Ayurved with today’s healthcare structure in a way that feels practical, safe and real. I don’t believe in overloading patients or selling “quick detox” ideas. I work on balancing doshas, rebuilding agni, planning proper chikitsa based on the person’s condition and constitution. Whether it’s lifestyle disorders, seasonal issues, chronic cases, or plain unexplained fatigue—I try to reach the cause before anything else. I still believe that Ayurved works best when it’s applied with clarity and humility—not overcomplicated or oversold. That’s the approach I carry into every patient room and every team meeting. It’s a long road, but it’s one I’m fully walking.

Dr. Ayush Bansal
I am an Ayurveda doctor with about 1 yr of hands on clinical practice, still learning everyday from patients and the science itself. My journey started as a VOPD doctor with Hiims Hospital under Jeena Sikho Lifecare Ltd. For 6 months I was into virtual consultations, understanding cases online, preparing treatment protocols and doing follow ups to track progress. That phase trained me well in quick patient assesment and also in explaining Ayurveda in a way that fit with modern expectations. I dealt with many chronic and acute cases during that time.. things like gastric issues, joint pain, stress related complaints, skin problems. The remote setting forced me to sharpen my diagnostic skill and rely more on careful history taking, prakriti analysis, and lifestyle understanding. After that, I moved to a Resident Doctor role at Chauhan Ayurved and Panchkarma Hospital, Udaipur. This was very different.. more practical, hands on, and really grounded me in classical Panchakarma. I was actively part of planning and performing therapies like Vamana, Virechana, Basti, Abhyanga, Shirodhara, and other detox and rejuvenation procedures. Many patients came with long standing spine issues, metabolic disorders, skin complaints, or hormonal imbalance and I got to see how tailored Panchakarma protocols and lifestyle advice together can bring changes that medicines alone couldn’t. Working closely with senior consultants gave me better clarity on safety, step by step planning and how to balance classical texts with practical hospital settings. Now, whether in OPD consultations or Panchkarma wards, I try to meet patients with empathy and patience. I focus on root cause correction, using herbs, diet, daily routine guidance, and therapy whenever needed. My belief is that Ayurveda should be accessible and authentic, not complicated or intimidating. My aim is simple—help people move towards long term wellness, not just temporary relief. I see health as balance of body, mind and routine.. and I want my practice to guide patients gently into that space.

Dr. Narendrakumar V Mishra
I am a Consulting Ayurvedic Physician practicing since 1990—feels strange saying “over three decades” sometimes, but yeah, that’s the journey. I’ve spent these years working closely with chronic conditions that don’t always have clear answers in quick fixes. My main work has been around skin disorders, hair fall, scalp issues, and long-standing lifestyle stuff like diabetes, arthritis, and stress that kinda lingers under everything else. When someone walks into my clinic, I don’t jump to treat the problem on the surface. I start by understanding their *prakriti* and *vikriti*—what they’re made of, and what’s currently out of sync. That lets me build treatment plans that actually *fit* their system—not just push a medicine and hope it works. I use a mix of classical formulations, panchakarma if needed, dietary corrections, and slow, practical lifestyle changes. No overnight miracle talk. Just steady support. Hair fall and skin issues often feel cosmetic from outside—but internally? It’s about digestion, stress, liver, hormones... I’ve seen patients try 10+ things before landing in front of me. And sometimes they just need someone to *listen* before throwing herbs at the problem. That’s something I never skip. With arthritis and diabetes too, I take the same root-cause path. I give Ayurvedic medicines, but also work with *dinacharya*, *ahar* rules, and ways to reduce the load modern life puts on the body. We discuss sleep, food timing, mental state, all of it. I’ve also worked a lot with people dealing with high stress—career burnout, anxiety patterns, overthinking—and my approach there includes Ayurvedic counseling, herbal mind support, breathing routines... depends what suits them. My foundation is built on classical *samhitas*, clinical observation, and actual time with patients—not theories alone. My goal has always been simple: to help people feel well—not just for a few weeks, but in a way that actually lasts. Healing that feels like *them*, not just protocol. That’s what I keep aiming for.
