I am a dedicated Ayurvedic practitioner with a diverse foundation in both modern and traditional systems of medicine. 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. I aim to create a nurturing space where patients feel heard, supported, and empowered in their healing journey. Whether treating seasonal imbalances, supporting women’s health, or guiding patients through Panchakarma therapies, I am committed to delivering care that is rooted in tradition and guided by compassion.

Hello, I understand how frustrating and exhausting a persistent wet cough can be especially when it doesn’t respond to usual medicines or remedies. Since it started after your move from Mumbai to Ahmedabad, it’s likely that environmental change, dry air, dust exposure, or allergens could be triggering or worsening your symptoms. In Ayurveda, such a productive (wet) cough is often related to Kapha-Vata imbalance where excess Kapha (mucus) gets trapped in the respiratory passages, and Vata (air) pushes it up frequently, causing frequent bouts of coughing, especially at night.

Also, Ahmedabad’s drier climate and higher air pollution compared to coastal Mumbai could be aggravating your airways. Continuous irritation of the throat and lungs may have caused sensitivity or mild inflammation, which needs calming and clearing.

To understand your case better, please answer a few questions:

Do you also feel post-nasal drip (mucus falling from nose to throat)? Is there chest tightness or wheezing? Do you feel worse after meals, exposure to cold air, or dust? Are you able to bring out phlegm or is it stuck? Do you have acidity or sinus issues?

Step 1: Ama Pachana and Kapha Nissarana (First 5 Days)

1. Trikatu Churna – ¼ tsp with honey after meals, twice daily → Helps digest mucus (Kapha) and clears toxins 2. Sitopaladi Churna – ½ tsp with honey or warm water, thrice daily → Works as a natural expectorant and reduces cough

Step 2: Internal Medicines (From Day 6 Onward, Continue for 4 Weeks)

1. Talisadi Churna – ½ tsp with honey, twice daily after food → Clears wet cough and supports respiratory strength 2. Vasavaleha – 1 tsp with lukewarm water, morning and night → Strengthens lungs, relieves phlegm and nighttime cough

3. Tribhuvan Kirti Ras – 1 tablet twice a day after meals with warm water → Acts as a natural antipyretic, mucolytic and Vata-Kapha shamak

External/Supportive Measures

Steam Inhalation with Tulsi + Ajwain seeds or a pinch of turmeric – twice daily → Clears nasal passages and loosens chest mucus Warm saline gargles twice a day → Soothes the throat and reduces irritation Avoid cold drinks, curd, bananas, and fried food

Investigations (If symptoms persist >2 months)

Chest X-ray CBC + ESR Serum IgE (to rule out allergy) PFT (Pulmonary Function Test) if breathlessness is present Sputum test if mucus is yellow or greenish

Let me know if: You have acid reflux, sinus issues, or known allergies You’re on any long-term medications

This plan should help soothe your symptoms and address the root cause.

Take care, stay hydrated, and be patient with the healing process. Warm regards, Dr. Karthika

HELLO BABITA,

Since you moved from Mumbai to Ahmedabad , your body has been exposed to a different environment- dried air, higher dust levels, different allergens, and may be even pollutants. This can disturb the natural balance of your body (called Doshas in Ayurveda)

In your case, symptoms like -wet cough -constant throat irritation and pain -worsening at night -no history of chronic disease, … all point towards an imbalance in Kapha dosha, which governs mucus, fluids, and immunity- and also a bit of Vata dosha , which controls movements (like cough reflex) and dryness

AYURVEDIC VIEW This is a case of -kaphaja-kasa (productive cough) -possibly vata-kapha sannipata, due to environment dryness, age - related vata increase, and travel stress. -Kantha shoal (sore throat), due to inflammation caused by sticky kapha blocking the respiratory channels.

GOALS OF TREATMENT -remove excess kapha= break down and eliminate sticky mucus that causes cough -soothe the throat and reduce inflammation= reduce pain, irritation, and constant coughinh -improve immunity of the respiratory tract= to prevent recurrence -rebalance doshas= stabilize the vata kapha balance disturbed due to climate , diet and lifestyle -strengthen digestion= a weak digestive fire slows mucus to form easily

INTERNAL MEDICATIONS

1) SHITOPALADI + TALISADI + YASHTI MADHU CHURNA= 1/2 tsp each with honey twice daily after meals for 1 month =reduces kapha, soothes cough, improves lung function, for wet cough and sore throat, breaks mucus, healing for throat

2) KANAKASAVA= 15 ml with equal water after meals for 1 month =improves breathing, reduces chest congestion

3) VASAVALEHA= 1 tsp after food twice daily for 4 weeks =clears kapha from lungs, enhances voice quality, and reduces chronic cough

4) TRIKATU CHURNA= 1/4 tsp with warm water at night for 2 weeks =boosts digestion and reduces mucus formation

EXTERNAL TREATMENTS

1) STEAM INHALATION= boil water with tulsi, pudina, or eucalyptus oil twice daily =opens blocked nasal and throat channels, melts mucus

2) SALT-TURMERIC GARGLE= warm water + 1 pinch turmeric + rock salt for 2-3 time daily =reduces swelling, disinfects throat

3) CHEST MASSAGE= use warm sesame oil with a pinch of camphor, rub gently on chest and throat nightly =improves circulation, relieves tightness in. chest

4)OIL PULLING= swish sesame oil in the mouth in morning =removes oral bacterial ,soothes throat

LIFESTYLE AND ROUTINE ADJUSTMENTS -Stay away from AC, direct air, fans at night , and dusty areas -Use humidifier or keep a water bowl in room to reduce dryness -sleep early, avoid day naps, and keep head elevated at night -avoid talking too much if your throat is hurting -do not suppress natural urges (cough sneeze, burp)- they worsen dosha imbalance.

DIET- general guidelines

WHAT TO EAT -light, warm, easily digestible food- khichdi, soups, green moong dal -cooked vegetables with warming spives- ginger, cumin, black pepper -warm water throughout the day (can boil with tulsi or dry ginger) -steamed or sauteed seasonal vegetables -herbal teas= tulsi ginger, cinnamon-clove,fennel-coriander

AVOID -curd, banana, cold drinks, refrigerated foods -fried, oily, junk food -wheat-heavy food if mucus is too sticky -nightshades like potatoes and brinjal if phlegm is severe

YOGA ASANAS -bhujangasana= open lungs -setu bandhasana -marjariasana-bitilasana

PRANAYAM -Anulom Vilom= balances vata and kapha -Bhramari= calms throat and mind -Ujjayi= soothes throat and improves breathing

EFFECTIVE AYURVEDIC HOME REMEDIES

1) TULSI-GINGER-HONEY SYRUP -crush 5 tulsi leaves + 1 tsp ginger juice+ 1 tsp honey take 2 times daily

2) GOLDEN MILK -1 cup milk + 1/4 tsp turmeric + pinch of black pepper at bedtime

3) AJWAIN + GUD MIX -roast ajwain, mix with jaggery and a little ghee -make a pea sized balls and take 1 daily

4) FENNEL-CORIANDER TEA -boil 1 tsp fennel + 1 crushed green cardamon -sip warm to soothe the throat

INVESTIGATION TO BE DONE

CHEST X-RAY= rule out lung infection, fluid or asthama

CBC + ESR= check for infection or chronic inflammation

ALLERGY PROFILE/IgE= if environment allergies suspected

SPUTUM TEST= if mucus is thick, green/yellow

PFT (pulmonary function test)= rule out asthma or airway restriction

-Your condition is likely related to environmental sensitivity and Ayurveda focuses on removing the root cause- not just stopping the cough -consistency is key. Ayurvedic treatments work gradually but deeply -you may begin to see improvement within 7-10 days, but continue the treatment for 4-6 weeks to avoid recurrence -If this becomes seasonal or chronic kindly visit panchakarma clinic (like nasya or Vamana) which provide long term relief

DO FOLLOW CONSISTENTLY

HOPE THIS MIGHT BE HELPFUL

THANK YOU

DR. MAITRI ACHARYA

Relocating to a new city like Ahmedabad can sometimes trigger respiratory issues, possibly due to environmental changes, pollution or allergens. Your continuous wet cough, worsening at night, suggests possible involvement of kapha dosha, which tends to increase mucus production. To address this, start with dietary adjustments, focusing on light, warm, and easily digestible meals. Avoid cold and oily foods, dairy products, and sugar, which can aggravate kapha. Opt for spicy and astringent foods like ginger, pepper, and turmeric that can help balance the dosha.

Consider preparing a simple Ayurvedic tea. Boil a teaspoon of ginger and black pepper in two cups of water until it reduces to one cup. Sip this concoction twice daily. Tulsi leaves, known for their antiviral properties, can also be beneficial. Chew on a few fresh tulsi leaves every morning or include them in the tea.

Additionally, steam inhalation with a few drops of eucalyptus oil can help to clear out mucus and soothe the airways. Do this once in the morning and once before bedtime. Alongside that, practicing pranayama, especially kapalbhati and anulom-vilom, daily for ten minutes can strengthen the respiratory system and enhance lung capacity.

Keep your living space free of dust, and use an air purifier if pollution is a concern. Maintain adequate hydration, but avoid drinking cold water. If your symptoms persist or seem to worsen, it is important to consult a healthcare professional to rule out any underlying conditions requiring immediate attention.

Ayurvedic remedies can offer support, but ensure they complement any existing medical treatments you are undergoing.

A persistent wet cough, especially after a move, can often be linked to environmental changes which might be affecting the kapha dosha. Ahmedabad’s climate is quite different from Mumbai’s, and the increased dryness or possible exposure to different allergens or pollutants can lead to an imbalance.

First, consider making a decoction using a blend of tulsi (Holy Basil) leaves, ginger, and some black pepper. Simmer these ingredients in water till it reduces by half, and sip this warm infusion twice a day. It’s important this decoction is taken soon after it’s made for maximum effect.

Additionally, try incorporating trikatu churna—a powder mix of ginger, black pepper, and long pepper. You can take around 1/4 tsp with honey twice a day. This will help to pacify aggravated kapha and support the respiratory pathway.

For your surroundings, using a humidifier at night can help maintain moisture in the air, potentially alleviating night-time coughing. If possible, place eucalyptus oil in the humidifier to open respiratory passages.

Steaming with eucalyptus or mint leaves can also be very beneficial. If no herbs are available to you, plain hot water steam will also help to loosen up mucus.

It’s crucial to maintain a diet that avoids dairy, excessive sweets, or anything that increases mucus, favoring warm, light, cooked meals. Fresh ginger tea can also be included to keep agni strong.

However, if the cough persists or worsens, it would be prudent to seek medical attention promptly, especially to rule out any underlying conditions or infections. While the above approaches are gentle, they should complement, not replace, medical diagnostics where necessary.

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.

Dr. Anirudh Deshmukh
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.

Dr. Ayush Varma
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 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. Maitri Bhavesh Kumar Acharya
I am Dr. Maitri, currently in my 2nd year of MD in Dravyaguna, and yeah, I run my own Ayurvedic clinic in Ranoli where I’ve been seeing patients for 2 years now. Honestly, what pulled me into this path deeper is how powerful herbs really are—when used right. Not just randomly mixing churnas but actually understanding their rasa, virya, vipaka etc. That’s kinda my zone, where textbook knowledge meets day-to-day case handling. My practice revolves around helping people with PCOD, acne, dandruff, back pain, stiffness in knees or joints that never seem to go away. And I don’t jump to giving a long list of medicines straight away—first I spend time figuring out their prakriti, their habits, food cycle, what triggers what… basically all the small stuff that gets missed. Then comes the plan—herbs (single or compound), some diet reshuffling, and always some lifestyle nudges. Sometimes they’re tiny, like sleep timing. Sometimes big like proper seasonal detox. Being into Dravyaguna helps me get into the depth of herbs more confidently. I don’t just look at the symptom—I think okay what guna will counter this? Should the drug be snigdha, ushna, tikta? Is there a reverse vipaka that’ll hurt the agni? I ask these questions before writing any combo. That’s made a huge diff in outcomes. Like I had this case of chronic urticaria that would flare up every week, and just tweaking the herbs based on sheetala vs ushna nature... helped calm the system in 3 weeks flat. Not magic, just logic. I also work with women who are struggling with hormonal swings, mood, delayed periods or even unexplained breakouts. When hormones go haywire, the skin shows, digestion slows, and mind gets foggy too. I keep my approach full-circle—cleansing, balancing, rejuvenating. No quick fixes, I tell them early on. What I’m hoping to do more of now is make Ayurveda feel practical. Not overwhelming. Just simple tools—ahara, vihara, aushadha—used consistently, with some trust in the body’s own healing. I’m still learning, still refining, but honestly, seeing people feel in control of their health again—that’s what keeps me rooted to this.

Dr. Hemanshu Mehta
I am Dr. Hemanshu—right now a 2nd year MD scholar in Shalya Tantra, which basically means I’m training deep into the surgical side of Ayurveda. Not just cutting and stitching, btw, but the whole spectrum of para-surgical tools like Agnikarma, Viddhakarma, and Kshara Karma... these aren’t just traditional, they’re super precise when done right. I’m not saying I know everything yet (still learning every day honestly), but I do have solid exposure in handling chronic pain issues, muscle-joint disorders, and anorectal conditions like piles, fissures, fistulas—especially where modern treatments fall short or the patient’s tired of going through loops. During clinical rounds, I’ve seen how even simple Kshara application or well-timed Agnikarma can ease stuff like tennis elbow or planter fasciatis, fast. But more than the technique, I feel the key is figuring what matches the patient’s constitution n lifestyle... like one-size-never-fits-all here. I try to go beyond the complaint—looking into their ahar, sleep, stress levels, digestion, and just how they feel in general. That part gets missed often. I honestly believe healing isn’t just a “procedure done” kind of thing. I try not to rush—spend time on pre-procedure prep, post-care advice, what diet might help the tissue rebuild faster, whether they’re mentally up for it too. And no, I don’t ignore pathology reports either—modern diagnostic tools help me stay grounded while applying ancient methods. It’s not this vs that, it’s both, when needed. My aim, tbh, is to become the kind of Ayurvedic surgeon who doesn't just do the work but understands why that karma or technique is needed at that point in time. Every case teaches me something new, and that curiosity keeps me moving.

Dr. Anupriya
I am an Ayurvedic doctor trained at one of the most reputed institutes (yeah, the kind that makes u sweat but also feel proud lol) where I completed my BAMS with 70%—not just numbers but real grind behind it. My focus during & after graduation has always been on treating the patient not just the disease, and honestly that philosophy keeps guiding me even now. I usually see anywhere around 50 to 60 patients a day, sometimes more if there's a health camp or local rush. It’s hectic, but I kinda thrive in that rhythm. What matters to me is not the number but going deep into each case—reading every complaint, understanding symptoms, prakriti, current state, season changes etc. and putting together a treatment that feels “right” for that person, not just for the condition. Like, I don’t do one-size-fits-all plans. I sit down, make case reports (yup, proper handwritten notes sometimes), observe small shifts, modify herbs, suggest diet tweaks, even plan rest patterns when needed. I find that holistic angle super powerful. And patients feel it too—some who come in dull n restless, over weeks show clarity, skin settles, energy kinda gets back... that makes the day worth it tbh. There’s no shortcut to trust, and i get that. Maybe that’s why patients keep referring their siblings or maa-papa too. Not bragging, but when people say things like “you actually listened” or “I felt heard”, it stays in the back of my mind even when I’m dog tired lol. My goal? Just to keep learning, treating honestly and evolving as per what each new case teaches me. Ayurveda isn’t static—it grows with u if u let it. I guess I’m just walking that path, one custom plan at a time.

Dr. Shaniba P
I am an Ayurvedic doctor, someone who’s pretty much built her clinical journey around natural healing, balance and yeah—just trying to help ppl feel a bit more whole again. I work mostly with conditions that kinda stay with people... like joint pain that won’t go away, periods all over the place, kids falling sick again n again, or just the kind of stress that messes up digestion n sleep n everything in between. A lot of my practice circles around arthritis, lower back pain, PCOD-ish symptoms, antenatal care, immunity problems in kids, and those quiet mental health imbalances ppl often don't talk much about. My approach isn’t just pulling herbs off a shelf and calling it a day. I spend time with classical diagnosis—checking Prakriti, figuring out doshas, seeing how much of this is physical and how much is coming from daily routine or emotional burnout. And treatments? Usually a mix of traditional Ayurvedic meds, Panchakarma (only if needed!!), changing food habits, tweaking the daily rhythm, and honestly... just slowing down sometimes. I’m also really into helping ppl understand themselves better—like once someone gets how their body is wired, things make more sense. I talk to patients about what actually suits their dosha, what throws them off balance, and how they can stop chasing quick fixes that don’t stick. Education's a big part of it. And yes, I’ve had patients walk in for constant cold and walk out realizing it’s more about weak agni n poor gut routines than just low immunity. Every case’s diff. Some are simple. Some not. But whether it’s a young woman trying to fix her cycles without hormones or a 6-year-old catching colds every week, I try building plans that last—not just short term relief stuff. Healing takes time and needs trust from both sides. End of the day, I try to keep it rooted—classical where it matters but flexible enough to blend with the world we're livin in rn. That balance is tricky, but worth it.

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. 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.
