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.

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.

​Ayurvedic Perspective on Appetite and Weight ​In Ayurveda, the loss of appetite and inability to gain weight are often associated with an imbalance of the three doshas: Vata, Pitta, and Kapha. Your symptoms most strongly suggest a Vata imbalance. ​Vata Dosha governs movement, air, and space in the body. An excess of Vata can lead to dryness, lightheadedness, and a weak digestive fire (Agni). This can cause a person to feel less hungry or not have the desire to eat, and it can also hinder the body’s ability to absorb nutrients and gain weight. ​The digestive fire (Agni) is considered crucial in Ayurveda. A weak Agni can lead to poor digestion and assimilation of food, which could explain why you are not gaining weight despite your attempts.
​Ayurvedic Recommendations ​The primary goal of an Ayurvedic treatment for your symptoms would be to balance Vata dosha and strengthen your Agni. Here are some general recommendations, but again, please consult an Ayurvedic practitioner for a personalized approach. ​1. Dietary Adjustments ​Eat warm, cooked, and nourishing foods: Focus on foods that are easy to digest and that pacify Vata. This includes soups, stews, grains like rice and wheat, and root vegetables.
​Avoid cold, dry, and raw foods: These foods can increase Vata. Try to limit salads, raw vegetables, and cold beverages.
​Use healthy fats: Ghee and olive oil can help to lubricate the body and balance Vata’s dryness. Incorporating these into your meals can be beneficial.
​Eat at regular times: Establishing a routine for your meals can help to regulate your Agni. Try to eat your main meal at midday when the digestive fire is strongest. ​2. Lifestyle Practices ​Stress Management: High stress levels can disrupt Vata. Incorporating practices like meditation, deep breathing exercises (pranayama), and gentle yoga can be helpful.
​Routine (Dinacharya): An irregular schedule can aggravate Vata. Try to wake up, eat, and sleep at the same time each day to create a sense of stability. ​Abhyanga (Self-Massage): A daily self-massage with warm sesame oil can be very grounding and calming for the nervous system, helping to balance Vata.

​3. Herbal Remedies

1) yavanishadava churna- 5gm before food with warm water 3 times

2) matulunga rasayan- 1 tsf before food with warm water 3 times ​ 3) chitrakadi vati- 1 tab 1 hr before food with warm water

Hello Sahil I can understand your concern regarding your loss of appetitie and stagnant weight but dont worry we are here to help you out 😊

✔️Your main concerns are Loss of appetite / poor hunger Not feeling like eating or drinking Stagnant weight (50–52 kg) for 4–5 years despite ideal weight being 70+ kg

✅ Possible Causes 1. Weak Agni (digestive fire) – long-standing poor digestion reduces hunger. 2. Accumulated Ama (toxins) – bloating, heaviness, no urge to eat. 3. Stress, anxiety, overthinking – affect gut-brain connection, lowering appetite. 4. Irregular food timings, skipping meals, excess tea/coffee – disturb natural hunger cycles. 5. Poor nourishment of tissues (Dhatu Kshaya) – explains stagnant weight despite eating.

✅AYURVEDUC PLAN OF. TREATMENT

☑️IMPROVE APPETITE AND DIGESTION (Deepana-Pachana)

1 Chitrakadi Vati – 1-0-1 before meals, twice daily, to stimulate Agni.

2 Hingwashtak Churna – ½ tsp with warm water just before lunch to reduce gas and bloating.

👉Start meals with a small piece of fresh ginger + rock salt to kindle appetite.

☑️ NOURISHING AND WEIGHT GAIN (Brimhana)

1 Ashwagandha Churna 1 tsp – with warm milk at night; builds strength and muscle mass.

2 Shatavari Kalpa – 1 tsp with milk in the morning, supports nourishment and digestion.

✅DIET MODIFICATION

✅ INCLUDE

Warm, freshly prepared meals: moong dal khichdi, ghee, milk, dates, soaked almonds, sweet fruits, jaggery. Energy-rich foods: paneer, rice, wheat, ghee, sesame seeds, nuts, banana shake. Herbal teas: cumin-fennel tea to ease digestion.

❌ Avoid Cold drinks, refrigerated foods, junk, excessive raw salads, tea/coffee in excess. Skipping meals or eating late at night.

✅ LIFESTYLE AND ROUTINE

Eat at fixed times daily to retrain hunger cycles. Practice light exercise or yoga (Surya Namaskar, brisk walk) – improves digestion and appetite naturally. Manage stress with deep breathing, meditation, Brahmari Pranayama. Sleep well (7–8 hrs), as growth and tissue nourishment happen best during rest.

Your issue is not eating less but not digesting and absorbing food properly. By strengthening digestion with Chitrakadi Vati, Hingwashtak Churna, ginger-salt before meals, and then adding Ashwagandha, Shatavari, and Chyawanprash with a nourishing diet, you can improve appetite and gradually gain healthy weight.

Wish you a good health😊

Warm Regards Dr Snehal Vidhate

hello dear ,

your body is not gaining weight because your digestion and appetite (“Agni” in Ayurveda) are weak. If the inner fire is low, even if you eat, the body cannot properly build strength and muscle. That’s why you don’t feel hungry, your weight is stuck around 50–52 kg, and you also don’t feel like eating or drinking much. First, we need to correct digestion and appetite, then slowly the body will start absorbing nutrition and weight will improve naturally.

A few things I want to know from you (in your words): Do you often feel acidity, gas, or bloating after food? How are your bowels – constipation, loose, or normal? How is your sleep – deep or disturbed? Any history of stress or anxiety affecting food intake?

Step-by-step Ayurvedic plan

1. First step – Ama Pachana & appetite correction (10–15 days): Chitrakadi Vati – 2 tablets twice daily before food with warm water. Jeerakadyarishta – 15 ml with equal warm water after food, twice daily.

2. Internal medicines for nourishment (start after 10–15 days, continue for 2–3 months):

Ashwagandha Churna – 3 g (½ tsp) with warm milk at night.

Shatavari Kalpa – 1 tsp with milk in the morning.

Draksharishta – 15 ml with equal water after lunch and dinner.

3. External support:

Abhyanga (oil massage) with Dhanwantharam Taila or sesame oil, 3–4 times/week before bath. Helps improve appetite, weight, and strength.

4. Food & lifestyle advice:

Eat small frequent meals rather than forcing large meals. Add ghee, soaked dry fruits, milk with dates, khichdi, and moong dal regularly. Avoid cold drinks, junk food, and skipping meals. Go for a morning walk in sunlight – it naturally improves appetite.

5. Investigations (to rule out hidden causes of low weight): CBC, ESR Thyroid profile LFT, KFT Vitamin B12, Vitamin D

With this plan, your digestion will first become stronger, hunger will return, and slowly your body will start building healthy weight.

Warm regards, Dr. Karthika

Loss of appetite and inability to gain weight might be attributed to an imbalance in your digestive fire or Agni, possibly resulting from a dominance of Vata or a Kapha imbalance. First, it’s essential to address your agni by adopting practices that improve digestion and nutrient assimilation. An assessment of your lifestyle and dietary habits is critical as they often play a vital role in digestive health.

Start by incorporating warm, nourishing, easy-to-digest foods into your diet – things like soups, stews, and porridges can be beneficial. Spice up your cooking with ginger, cumin, and black pepper which can invigorate agni. Try drinking a small cup of warm water with ginger and lemon juice before meals, this can help stimulate appetite. Additionally, ghee added into meals can be balancing and nourishing for all doshas, especially for Vata.

Avoid cold drinks, raw or heavy foods immediately before or with meals, which can dampen Agni. Regular meal routines are essential. If feasible, eat at the same times daily to set a rhythm for your body’s digestive system.

Yoga and Pranayama can also be advantageous particularly practices like Surya Namaskar and Kapalbhati breathing as they help stimulate digestive processes and enhance appetite.

In Ayurveda, maintaining a good lifestyle routine, or dinacharya, is recommended. Waking up early, adopting oil massages with warm sesame oil before bath, and incorporating mild exercise are simple yet effective steps. Also, ensure you have adequate rest and manage stress, as mental well-being significantly influences digestion.

If these measures don’t help, consulting a local Ayurvedic practitioner for personalized support might be necessary, allowing for herbal formulations tailored directly to your constitution. Safety is critical, so should any severe symptoms arise or persist, seek the guidance of a healthcare professional to rule out any underlying condition.

At 21 with low appetite disinterest in food and drink and stagnant weight around 50 to 52 kgs. This clearly suggest low Agni ( digestive fire) and VATA imbalance. According to Ayurveda without proper food doesn’t get digested or observed well leading to poor nourishment of tissues and difficulty gaining weight. The following medicines will improve your digestion, appetite and nourish tissues Chitrakadi vati - 1 tab to be chewed twice daily Arivindasava-4 teaspoon with equal quantity of water twice daily after food Ashwagandha churna-1/2 tsp with warm milk at night CHYWANPRASH- 1 teaspoon twice daily Eat regular warm, Cook meals and ghee milk, Paneer soaked almonds, dates, raisins moong dal khichdi

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. 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. Khushboo
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. 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. 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.

Dr. Manjula
I am an Ayurveda practitioner who’s honestly kind of obsessed with understanding what really caused someone’s illness—not just what hurts, but why it started in the first place. I work through Prakruti-Vikruti pareeksha, tongue analysis, lifestyle patterns, digestion history—little things most ppl skip over, but Ayurveda doesn’t. I look at the whole system and how it’s interacting with the world around it. Not just, like, “you have acidity, take this churna.” My main focus is on balancing doshas—Vata, Pitta, Kapha—not in a copy-paste way, but in a very personalized, live-and-evolving format. Because sometimes someone looks like a Pitta imbalance but actually it's their aggravated Vata stirring it up... it’s layered. I use herbal medicine, ahar-vihar (diet + daily routine), lifestyle modifications and also just plain conversations with the patient to bring the mind and body back to a rhythm. When that happens—healing starts showing up, gradually but strongly. I work with chronic conditions, gut imbalances, seasonal allergies, emotional stress patterns, even people who just “don’t feel right” anymore but don’t have a name for it. Prevention is also a huge part of what I do—Ayurveda isn’t just for after you fall sick. Helping someone stay aligned, even when nothing feels urgent, is maybe the most powerful part of this science. My entire practice is rooted in classical Ayurvedic texts—Charaka, Sushruta, Ashtanga Hridayam—and I try to stay true to the system, but I also speak to people where they’re at. That means making the treatments doable in real life. No fancy lists of herbs no one can find. No shloka lectures unless someone wants them. Just real healing using real logic and intuition together. I care about precision in diagnosis. I don’t rush that part. I take time. Because one wrong assumption and you’re treating the shadow, not the source. And that’s what I try to avoid. My goal isn’t temporary relief—it’s to teach the body how to not need constant fixing. When someone walks away lighter, clearer, more in tune with their system—that’s the actual win.

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 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. 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.
