FOR HAIRFALL,

DOSHA INVOLVEMENT 1)VATA- dryness, frizzz, breakage, dandruff 2)PITTA- heat in scalp, early greying, inflammation, hair root destruction 3)RAKTA DUSHTI- toxin accumulation-> weakened follicles 4)ASTHI DHATU KSHAYA- since Kesha are considered upadhatu of asthi, when rasa->rakta->mamsa->meda->asthi conversion is impaired, hair loss results

TYPES OF HAIRLOSS- BASED ON DOSHA’S

-KHALITYA(baldness)- pitta-vata= patchy loss, heat in scalp, premature thinning

-INDRALUPTA(alopecia areata)- kapha-vata= sudden loss in spots

-RUHYA- vata= gradual thinning , no itching

-PALITYA(greying)- pitta= premature greying, often hereditary

INTERNALLY START WITH

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.

HELLO SUNIL KUMAR,

FOR VITILIGO

In Ayurveda, vitiligo is categorised as “SWITRA” or “KILASA” , which refers to skin discolouration caused by an imbalance of doshas, particularly pitta( governs heat, metabolism, and pigmentation ) and sometimes kapha(governs stability and moisture). The disease is considered tridoshaja ( involving all three doshas), but with pitta dominance because pitta controls melanin or pigmentation in the skin.

ROOT CAUSES -improper diet- e.g; milk with fish, sour+ milk- viruddha ahara - poor digestion- leads to toxin buildup - emotional stress- aggravates doshas and autoimmune response -long term use of harsh medicines - vitamin and mineral deficiencies(especially B12, D, COPPER)

TREATMENT GOAL -stop the spread -detox the body -stimulate pigmentation - support long term skin healing -prevent recurrence - stop new spots, re-pigment exist ones, restore confidence and skin health naturally

START INTERNALLY WITH

1) BAKUCHI CHURNA- 125 mg once daily slowly increase to 250 mg with honey or ghee in morning = stimulates melanocytes

2) KHADIRARISHTA- 20 ml with equal water after lunch and dinner = detoxifies blood, clears skin

3) AROGYAVARDHINI VATI- 1 tab twice daily after meals = improves liver and metabolism

4) MAHAMANJISTHADI KASHAYA- 15ml with water twice daily before meals = anti-inflammatory, blood cleanser

5) GUDUCHI TABELTS- 1 tab twice a day in morning and night = builds immunity, reduces autoimmune reaction

6) RASAMANIKYA- 65 mg with honey in morning = stimulate pigmentation(best one )

LOCAL APPLICATIONS

1) BAKUCHI TAILA+ GOMUTRA - apply directly on spots , sit in early morning sun-10 mins, then wash

2) MANJISTHA+ NEEM+ TURMERIC+ BAKUCHI CHURNA PASTE - make a paste with rose water or aloevera gel apply for 20 mins then rinse = helps purify skin and reduce spread

3) NEEM OIL + COCONUT OIL(50:50)- apply at night = soothes skin, reduces inflammation

DIETARY GUIDLINESS TO FOLLOW STRICTLY

AVOID -milk+ sour fruits like orange, lemon - milk+ salt or salty snacks - fish + milk -curd, panner- especially at night - fermented foods- bread, vinegar, pickles -junk food, chocolates, cola, chips

INCLUDE -FRUITS=apple, papaya, pomegranate, jamun, figs -VEGETABLES= pumpkin, ash gourd, spinach,carrots -PROTEINS= moong dal , tofu, soaked almonds, ghee -SUPERFOODS= amla, turmeric, black pepper, sesame seeds -BUTTERMILK

DRINK warm water, avoid ice cold drinks. cook fresh food. try to eat at the same time daily.

LIFESTYLE AND MIND MANAGEMENT

PRANAYAM -Anulom vilom= balances all doshas, calms stress -SHEETALI/ SHEETKARI- cools pitta, soothes mind -Bhramari- calms nervous system and skin

OTHER -sleep by 10 pm -morning sun exposure for 10-15 min - avoid exposure to chemical creams, fairness products - try trakata(candle gazing) to stabilise mind and reduce emotional triggers

HEALING TIMELINES

1-2 MONTHS= skin health improves, new spots stop 3-6 MONTHS= light re-pigmentation starts 6-12 MONTHS= visible color returns in patches

This all are epilepsy safe drugs

DO FOLLOW CONSISTENTLY TO GET RESULT

HOPE THIS MIGHT HELP YOU

WISH YOU A SPEEDY RECOVERY

THANK YOU

My training and clinical experience have equipped me to treat a wide range of conditions such as Netra Abhishyanda (conjunctivitis), Timira and Kacha (early and advanced cataract), Adhimantha (glaucoma), Karna Srava (ear discharge), Karna Nada (tinnitus), Pratishyaya (chronic rhinitis and sinusitis), Mukhapaka (oral ulcers), Dantaharsha (dental sensitivity), and Shirashoola (headache and migraine). I routinely incorporate classical Ayurvedic therapeutic techniques like Kriya Kalpas, Nasya, Tarpana, Aschyotana, Karna Purana, Gandusha, Pratisarana, and Dhoomapana, along with internal Rasayana and Shamana therapies, ensuring treatments are both effective and tailored to each patient’s prakriti and condition. Beyond my specialization, I bring over two years of clinical experience managing multi-systemic disorders. My approach blends classical Ayurvedic principles with a sound understanding of modern diagnostics and pathology, allowing me to handle cases related to metabolic disorders (such as diabetes, hypothyroidism, and PCOS), musculoskeletal issues (like arthritis and back pain), gastrointestinal disorders, skin conditions, and women’s health concerns, including infertility and hormonal imbalance.

My focus is always on delivering compassionate care that empowers patients to actively participate in their health journey. Through continuous learning and clinical research, I remain committed to upholding the timeless wisdom of Ayurveda in a way that aligns with today’s healthcare needs.

Dear Sunil Kumar Thank you for sharing your concerns in detail.

Your symptoms of gradually spreading white patches (Shvitra / Kilasa – vitiligo) on the legs and other body parts, along with hair fall, indicate a Tridoshic imbalance with predominance of Pitta and Kapha, leading to disturbance in Rakta and Mamsa Dhatu. In Ayurveda, such white patches are described as arising due to impaired Agni (metabolism), toxin accumulation (Ama), and imbalance in skin pigmentation channels (Bhrajaka Pitta).

The slower spread in the legs compared to other areas suggests deeper Dhatu involvement there. Hair fall points to Rakta Dhatu depletion and Vata aggravation.

Vitiligo (Shvitra) is considered manageable and arrestable, though complete reversal depends on chronicity, depth, and individual constitution. Ayurveda focuses on stopping spread, stimulating pigment, and strengthening immunity. Time required varies — early and superficial patches may show improvement in 3–6 months, while older/chronic patches may need 9–18 months of consistent treatment.

Recommended Investigations

1. CBC & ESR – to rule out inflammation. 2. Thyroid profile (TSH, T3, T4) – as thyroid imbalance can aggravate vitiligo & hair fall. 3. Vitamin D3 & B12 levels. 4. Blood sugar (FBS, PPBS) – as metabolic imbalance can worsen condition.

Internal Medicines

Stage 1 – Detox & Pitta–Kapha Balance (First 6–8 weeks)

1. Arogyavardhini Vati – 2 tabs twice daily after meals (liver & skin metabolism). 2. Gandhak Rasayan – 1 tab twice daily after meals (blood purifier & skin healer). 3. Panchtikta Ghrita Guggulu – 2 tabs twice daily after meals (skin & immunity support). 4. Avipattikar Churna – ½ tsp with warm water at night (balances Pitta & improves digestion).

Stage 2 – Pigment Stimulation & Dhatu Nourishment (From week 9 onwards)

1. Bakuchi Churna – 250 mg with honey once daily (supports melanin activity; only under supervision). 2. Kaishore Guggulu – 2 tabs twice daily after meals (blood purifier & chronic skin disease support). 3. Narasimha Rasayanam – 1 tsp twice daily after meals with warm water or milk substitute (for hair fall & skin nourishment).

External Applications

1. Bakuchi Taila (Psoralea oil) – Apply gently over white patches in morning sun exposure for 5–10 min only (not more, to avoid burns). 2. Kumkumadi Taila or Neelibringadi Taila – For scalp massage 2–3 times weekly to reduce hair fall and nourish roots.

Diet & Lifestyle Tips

Avoid:

1.Milk & milk products taken with salty/sour foods. 2.Excess curd, fish, non-veg, alcohol. 3.Sour fruits (orange, lemon, tamarind) in large amounts. 4.Fermented, stale, or junk foods.

Include:

1.Green leafy vegetables, bottle gourd, ridge gourd, bitter gourd. 2.Pomegranate, figs, dates, black sesame, soaked almonds. 3.Regular use of cow’s ghee in small quantity. 4.Wheat, barley, moong dal.

Lifestyle:

1.Follow strict meal timings; avoid day sleep. 2.Gentle sun exposure (early morning) helps pigment activation. 3.Practice Pranayama (Anulom Vilom, Bhramari, Kapalabhati – 10 min each daily). 4.Stress management is very important as stress can worsen vitiligo.

With consistent treatment, Ayurveda aims to slow down and stop the spread, gradually bring pigmentation back, and reduce hair fall. Early cases respond better and faster. I recommend at least 6 months of therapy with regular follow-up.

Please feel free to share updates for further guidance and adjustment of medicines.

With kind regards, Dr. Sumi

HELLO SUNIL KUMAR ,

I understand your concern. You are noticing gradually developing white patches on your legs and some other parts of your body, and you also have hair fall. From what you describe, this looks like a condition called Shwitra in Ayurveda, which in modern terms is similar to vitiligo or hypopigmentation.

The cause in Ayurveda is often linked to Vata-Pitta imbalance along with dhatu (tissue) depletion and sometimes Ama (toxins). White patches occur because the pigment-producing cells in the skin are not functioning properly. Hair fall can also happen alongside this if the body’s Rakta (blood) and Mamsa (muscle) dhatu are weak. The good news is that Ayurveda can help stop the spread of these patches, restore skin color gradually, and reduce hair fall if treated consistently. However, it is a slow process, and it usually takes 3–12 months depending on the severity, duration, and your body’s response.

Treatment approach: Amapachana (detoxification) – first we clear any toxins in your system that can aggravate skin and hair issues.

Internal medicines – to balance Vata-Pitta, nourish skin, and restore pigmentation.

External therapies – oils and pastes applied to the white patches help in pigmentation and prevent spread.

Hair care – nourishing oils and herbal support for hair roots.

Ayurvedic Prescription: Amapachana (first 5 days): Triphala Churna 3g with warm water before meals twice daily. Internal medicine (after Amapachana): Vishagandha Vati / Kalyanaka Ghrita – 2 tablets twice daily after meals (for skin pigmentation and immunity). Manjishtha Churna 3g with warm milk once daily (supports blood and skin health).

External therapy: Bakuchi Tailam / Chandana Tailam applied gently on white patches once daily. Mild sun exposure for 10–15 minutes daily in morning hours can help in pigmentation.

Hair care: Massage scalp with Bhringraj oil twice a week to strengthen hair roots. Include Amalaki Churna 1 tsp with warm water twice daily to nourish hair and body.

Diet & lifestyle suggestions: Eat fresh, warm, and easily digestible food. Include green vegetables, fruits like amla, pomegranate, and nuts. Avoid excess fried, sour, and processed foods. Practice gentle yoga and meditation to balance Vata-Pitta. Avoid chemical hair products and harsh soaps on affected areas.

Investigations to consider: Blood tests for complete blood count, liver, kidney function, and thyroid. Vitamin B12 and D levels (low levels can affect pigmentation and hair health).

Before starting treatment: Please let me know about your bowel habits, appetite, urination, sleep, as these help in planning the right medicine and dosage.

With consistent treatment and proper care, the spread of white patches can stop, some repigmentation can appear, and hair fall will reduce. Patience is important, and results are gradual.

Warm regards, Dr. Karthika

Prevention

To help prevent and treat vaginal discharge:

Keep your genital area clean and dry. Avoid soap and rinse with water only. Sitting in a warm, but not hot, bath may help your symptoms.

Avoid douching. Although many women feel cleaner if they douche after menstruation or intercourse, it may actually worsen vaginal discharge because it removes healthy bacteria lining the vagina that protect against infection.

Eat yogurt with live cultures or take Lactobacillus acidophilus tablets when you are on antibiotics to prevent a yeast infection.

Use condoms to avoid catching or spreading sexually transmitted infection (STI).

Avoid using feminine hygiene sprays, fragrances, or powders in the genital area.

Avoid wearing extremely tight-fitting pants or shorts, which may cause irritation.

Wear cotton underwear or cotton-crotch pantyhose. Avoid underwear made of silk or nylon, because these materials are not very absorbant and restrict air flow. This can increase sweating in the genital area, which can cause irritation.

Use pads and not tampons.

Keep your blood sugar levels under good control if you have diabetes.

1 pushyanuga churna -3 gm+Pradarantaka rasa-125mg+ vanga bhasma-125mg+spatika bhasma-500mg+shuddha gandhaka-250mg mix and take in morning

Vitiligo, or leucoderma, presents as white patches on your skin, and its treatment within Ayurveda focuses on rebalancing doshas and improving digestive health. The pigment loss can vary in different parts of the body, often progressing slowly. While Ayurveda doesn’t claim to “cure” vitiligo entirely like conventional medicine seeks, it offers ways to manage the condition and potentially moderate it over time. The duration can vary greatly from person to person; patience and consistency are key components.

Ayurveda suggests a multi-faceted approach. First, maintain a pitta-pacifying diet, as vitiligo often associates with imbalanced pitta dosha. Avoid sour, spicy, fermented foods, and prefer cooling, soothing foods like cucumber, ghee, and fresh vegetables. A good digestive fire (agni) is vital; consume spices like turmeric and coriander to support digestion.

Herbal remedies may include bakuchi (Psoralea corylifolia), known for stimulating pigmentation, however it’s essential to test for any skin sensitivity first. Guduchi (Tinospora cordifolia) and neem are beneficial for their cleansing properties. Ayurevdic formulations like Arogyavardhini vati or Vasa vati might support general detoxification, but always consult a professional for personalized advice.

For hair fall, various factors like stress, nutritional deficiency, or dosha imbalance could be at play. Include foods rich in protein and iron, like amla and sesame seeds, which are known to promote hair health. Apply Bhringraj oil or coconut oil infused with rosemary to scalp, massaging gently to enhance circulation.

Consult an experienced Ayurvedic practitioner to tailor this guidance specially for you, ensuring it aligns with your constitution and lifestyle. Remember, consistency and lifestyle adjustments are crucial in managing these conditions. Also, for progressing vitiligo or significant hair loss, it is wise to consult a dermatologist or healthcare professional alongside Ayurvedic practices.

Vitiligo or leucoderma, characterized by white patches on the skin, is a challenging condition to address fully, but with an ayurvedic approach, management and improvement are possible. In Ayurveda, this condition is often linked with an imbalance in the doshas, particularly pitta and vata, which can disrupt the body’s natural pigmentation process.

The approach involves dietary, lifestyle recommendations, and herbal remedies. First, it’s crucial to maintain a specific diet to balance pitta, avoiding spicy and sour foods, excessive salt, and fermented products. Instead, focus on foods that promote cooling and stability, such as sweet, bitter, and astringent tastes. Ghee, for instance, is beneficial for its cooling and nourishing effects.

Herbs like Bakuchi (Psoralea corylifolia) are traditionally used to support skin pigmentation. Bakuchi oil or in powdered form might be applied topically mixed in a carrier oil or consumed cautiously under professional guidance. Additionally, the regular consumption of Neem may help detoxify and improve skin health. Always make sure to consult an ayurvedic specialist before beginning with these herbs to understand suitable dosages.

The condition’s response can vary, and visible changes might take few months to manifest. Consistent practice and discipline with these methods are crucial. Notably, if patches spread rapidly or cover large body areas, prompt clinical evaluation is advised to rule out other potential conditions.

For your hair fall issue, consider addressing it by nourishing the scalp with Bhringraj oil or Amla. These can fortify the hair and reduce hair fall significantly, supporting healthy regrowth.

Access to a knowledgeable practitioner is key to ensuring these recommendations harmonize with your entire constitution. Each person’s prakriti differs, and tailored advice based on comprehensive assessment is valuable. Balancing your agni (digestive fire) and managing stress are integral parts of this holistic approach. With due diligence, you can target the root causes effectively while nurturing your general well-being.

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 SUNIL,

Vitiligo is an autoimmune condition where the body’s immune system mistakenly attacks melanocytes- cells that produce melanin, the pigment responsible for skin color, this results in white patches on the skin

COMMON CAUSES -genetics- family history - nutritional deficiencies-especially vitamin b12, D, copper, zinc - autoimmune disorders-thyroid issues - stress-emotional or physical trauma - skin injury or sunburn -chemical exposure

In Ayurveda vitiligo is referred to as shwitra(a type of kushta roga- skin disease), mainly caused by imbalance of the pitta dosha, combined with kapha and vata involvement.

PATHOGENESIS- viruddha ahara(incompatible food), excessive consumption of sour, salty, fermented food, or mental stress leads to accumulation of toxins(ama) and vitiation of blood and skin tissues.

INTERNALLY START WITH

1) SOMARAJI GHRITA- 2 tsp o emoty stomach with warm water/mik =detoxifies liver, promotes melanocyte regeneration , very effective in chronic cases.

2) RAS MANIKYA WITH GUDUCHI SATVA- 60mg + 1/2 tsp with honey =controls autoimmune response, improves skin tone

3) SWARNA MAKSHIK BHASMA- 125 mg with honey at night = helps improve liver function and immunity

4) CHITRAKADI VATI- 2 tabs after meals =improves digestion, reduces toxins, balances pitta

5) SHVITRAHARA LEHYA(FROM ARYA VAIDYA SALA, KOTTAKAL)- 1 tsp daily In morning = specific for vitiligo and leukoderma

6) MAHAMANJISTHADI KASHAYA- 20 ml with water twice daily after meals =useful in skin disease including eczema, vitiligo

can also go for panchakrma = virechana and raktamokshana at panchakarma clinic

EXTERNAL APPLICATION

1) BAKUCHI OIL- apply on affected area once a day -after applying expose to mild early morning sunlight 15 mins

2) KUMKUMADI TAILA- safe facial oil to improve skin tone =apply at night

DIET -eat black gram, green leafy veggies -amla, pomegrante, beetroot, carrot - whole grains, ghee

AVOID -curd, fish with milk, fermented foods, citrus fruits in excess -non vegetarian food, alcohol, smoking, processed foods -cold water bath and harsh cosmetics

STRESS MANAGEMENT -practice pranayam daily- anulom vilom, brahmari - meditation reduces cortisol and may help prevent progression - Can take brahmi vati- 1 tab at night for anxiety reduction

Vitiligo treatments take time. Ayurvedic therapies take 3-6 months or more to show visible improvement

DO FOLLOW CONSISTENTLY

THANK YOU

DR. HEMANSHU MEHTA

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. 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. Manasi Gandhi
I am practicing Ayurveda on my own for around 20 years now and honestly, it’s hard to sum up what that feels like in just a line or two. Over these years, I’ve seen health problems change with time — lifestyle disorders becoming more common, stress showing up in ways people don’t even notice until it’s too late, and seasonal illnesses behaving a bit differently than before. My work is all about looking at the root of the problem, not just the part that’s hurting right now. Sometimes that means working with herbal formulations, sometimes with Panchakarma therapies, sometimes just changing how someone eats or sleeps. I’ve treated a mix of acute issues like fever, colds, stomach upsets, and chronic ones like arthritis, diabetes, skin diseases, and digestive troubles. Women’s health has also been a steady part of my practice, whether it’s menstrual irregularities, PCOD, or post-natal care. And I make time for children’s wellness too, especially through immunity-building practices like Suvarnaprashan. I guess what keeps me going is knowing that Ayurveda gives me so many tools to work with — it’s never just one formula for everyone. I like spending time understanding a person’s lifestyle, diet, and emotional state because without that, the treatment feels incomplete. Over two decades, I’ve learned that small, consistent changes can be more powerful than any single “big” remedy, and that’s something I always try to pass on to my patients!!

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. 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. Rajan soni
I am working in Ayurveda field from some time now, started out as a general physician at Chauhan Ayurveda Hospital in Noida. That place taught me a lot—how to handle different types of patients in OPD, those daily cases like fever, digestion issues, body pain... but also chronic stuff which keeps coming back. After that I moved to Instant Aushadhalya—an online Ayurveda hospital setup. Whole different space. Consultations online ain’t easy at first—no pulse reading, no direct Nadi check—but you learn to ask the right things, look at patient’s tone, habit patterns, timing of symptoms... and yeah it actually works, sometimes even better than in person. Right now I’m working as an Ayurveda consultant at Digvijayam Clinic where I’m focusing more on individualised care. Most ppl come here with stress-related problems, digestion issues, joint pain, that kind of mix. I go by classic diagnosis principles like prakriti analysis, dosha imbalance and all, but also mix in what I learned from modern side—like understanding their lifestyle triggers, screen time, sleep cycles, food gaps n stress patterns. I don’t rush into panchakarma or heavy medicines unless it’s needed... prefer starting with simple herbs, diet change, basic daily routine correction. If things demand, then I go stepwise into Shodhan therapies. My goal is to not just “treat” but to help ppl know what’s happening in their body and why its reacting like that. That awareness kinda becomes half the cure already. Not everything is perfect. Sometimes ppl don’t follow what you say, sometimes results are slow, and yeah that gets to you. But this path feels honest. It’s slow, grounded, and meaningful.

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.

Dr. Vinayak Kamble
I am about 1 year into my practice journey n honestly that feels both small n big at the same time. When I first started, I wasn’t sure how quickly I could adjust from academic space into real clinical care, but gradually with each patient I learnt something more. My main focus is on pain management—conditions like knee joint pain, sciatica, lumbar back ache, spondylitis, tennis elbow, golfer elbow, frozen shoulder, heel pain etc. I try to combine careful diagnosis with treatments rooted in Ayurveda yet explained in practical way so patients don’t feel lost. Sometimes progress is slow, sometimes quick, but always there is learning in it. During this year I also kept my dedication toward research and evidence-based approach. I worked on presenting ideas and papers in academic forums whenever I got chance, and even managed to publish in journals that value Ayurveda in modern context. That gave me confidence that my small contributions can add to bigger discussions in medical field. In my postgraduate study I had finished Medicine with top score in my batch, which felt rewarding but also left me with responsibility to keep proving that I deserve that position. Honestly, academic achievements are good but real test is when someone walks in pain and goes back with relief, even if just partial at first. Sometimes patients expect instant cure, n that is where I try to keep balance—explaining how pain relief in conditions like frozen shoulder or spondylitis may take staged approach, while also keeping them hopeful. Ayurveda gives a framework but patient trust makes the treatment effective. One year is not a long time but it has been enough to show me the value of consistency, clarity and listening more than talking. My aim is not just treating pain but helping people understand their body better, manage lifestyle triggers, and feel supported in the journey of healing!!

Dr. Ravi Chandra Rushi
I am working right now as a Consultant Ayurvedic Ano-Rectal Surgeon at Bhrigu Maharishi Ayurvedic Hospital in Nalgonda—and yeah, that name’s quite something, but what really keeps me here is the kind of cases we get. My main focus is managing ano-rectal disorders like piles (Arsha), fistula-in-ano (Bhagandara), fissure-in-ano (Parikartika), pilonidal sinus, and rectal polyps. These are often more complex than they look at first, and they get misdiagnosed or overtreated in a lotta places. That’s where our classical tools come in—Ksharasutra therapy, Agnikarma, and a few other para-surgical techniques we follow from the Samhitas...they’ve been lifesavers honestly. My work here pushes me to keep refining surgical precision while also sticking to the Ayurvedic core. I do rely on modern diagnostics when needed, but I won’t replace the value of a well-done Nadi Pariksha or assessing dosha-vikruti in depth. Most of my patients come with pain, fear, and usually after a couple of rounds of either incomplete surgeries or just being fed painkillers n antibiotics. And I totally get that frustration. That’s why I combine surgery with a whole support plan—Ayurvedic meds, diet changes, lifestyle tweaks that actually match their prakriti. Not generic stuff off a handout. Over time, I’ve seen that when people follow the whole protocol, not just the procedure part, the recurrence drops a lot. I’m quite particular about follow-up and wound care too, ‘cause we’re dealing with delicate areas here and ignoring post-op can ruin outcomes. Oh and yeah—I care a lot about educating folks too. I talk to patients in OPD, sometimes give community talks, just to tell people they do have safer options than cutting everything out under GA! I still study Shalya Tantra like it’s a living document. I try to stay updated with whatever credible advancements are happening in Ayurvedic surgery, but I filter what’s fluff and what’s actually useful. At the end of the day, my aim is to offer respectful, outcome-based care that lets patients walk out without shame or fear. That’s really what keeps me grounded in this field.

Dr. Snehal Vidhate
I am Dr. Snehal Vidhate, born n brought up in Maharashtra—and honestly, for as long as I remember I’ve felt this pull towards Ayurveda. Not the fancy version ppl throw around, but the deep, real kind that actually helps ppl. I did my BAMS from YMT Ayurvedic Medical College in Kharghar. That’s where I got my basics strong—like really studied the shastras, understood prakriti, doshas, the whole deal. Not just crammed theory but started to see how it shows up in real lives. After finishing BAMS, I got into this one-year certificate course at Rashtriya Ayurveda Vidyapeeth, Delhi—honestly a turning point. I was super lucky to learn Kerala Ayurveda from my Guru, Prof. Dr. G.G. Gangadharan. He’s got this way of seeing things... simple but deep. That time with him taught me more than any textbook ever could. It kinda reshaped how I look at health, healing n how precise Ayurveda can be when you respect its roots. Right now I’m doing my MD in Panchakarma from SDM Ayurveda College, Bangalore. This place is like a hub for serious Ayurveda work. The Panchakarma training here? Super intense. We go deep into detoxification & rasayana therapy—not just theory again, but hands-on. I’m learning to blend classical techniques with today’s clinical demands.. like how to make Vamana or Basti actually doable in modern patient setups. My current practice is really about merging tradition with logic. Whether it’s chronic skin issues, gut problems, stress burnout or hormone stuff—my goal is to get to the root, not just hush the symptoms. I use Panchakarma when needed, but also a lot of ahara-vihara tweaks, medhya herbs, sometimes just slowing ppl down a bit helps. I really believe Ayurveda’s power is in its simplicity when done right. I don’t try to fix ppl—I work *with* them. And honestly, every patient teaches me something back.

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.
