Dr. Akshay Negi
I am currently pursuing my MD in Panchakarma, and by now I carry 3 yrs of steady clinical experience. Panchakarma for me is not just detox or some fancy retreat thing — it’s the core of how Ayurveda actually works to reset the system. During my journey I’ve handled patients with arthritis flares, chronic back pain, migraine, digestive troubles, hormonal imbalance, even skin and stress-related disorders... and in almost every case Panchakarma gave space for deeper healing than medicines alone. Working hands-on with procedures like Vamana, Virechana, Basti, Nasya, and Raktamokshana gave me a lot of practical insight. It's not just about performing the therapy, but understanding timing, patient strength, diet before and after, and how their mind-body reacts to cleansing. Some respond quick, others struggle with initial discomfort, and that’s where real patient support matters. I learnt to watch closely, adjust small details, and guide them through the whole process safely. My approach is always patient-centric. I don’t believe in pushing the same package to everyone. I first assess prakriti, agni, mental state, lifestyle, then decide what works best. Sometimes full Panchakarma isn’t even needed — simple modifications, herbs, or limited therapy sessions can bring results. And when full shodhana is required, I plan it in detail with proper purvakarma & aftercare, cause that’s what makes outcomes sustainable. The last few years made me more confident not just in procedures but in the philosophy behind them. Panchakarma isn’t a quick fix — it demands patience, discipline, trust. But when done right, it gives relief that lasts, and that’s why I keep refining how I practice it.

I’m Dr. Hemanshu, a second-year MD scholar specializing in Shalya Tantra (Ayurvedic Surgery), with a focused interest in para-surgical interventions such as Agnikarma, Viddhakarma, and Kshara Karma. My academic and clinical journey is rooted in classical Ayurvedic surgical wisdom, complemented by a modern understanding of patient care and evidence-based approaches. With hands-on training and experience in managing chronic pain conditions, musculoskeletal disorders, hemorrhoids, fistula, and other ano-rectal conditions, I provide treatments that emphasize both relief and long-term wellness. I am deeply committed to offering individualized treatment plans that align with the patient’s prakriti (constitution), disease progression, and lifestyle factors. I believe healing is not limited to procedures alone; it also requires compassion, communication, and continuity of care. That’s why I ensure each patient receives personalized guidance—from diagnosis and therapy to post-treatment care and preventive strategies. I also incorporate Ayurvedic principles like Ahara (diet), Vihara (lifestyle), and Satvavajaya (mental well-being) to promote complete healing and not just symptomatic relief. Whether it's managing complex surgical cases or advising on conservative Ayurvedic therapies, my goal is to restore balance and improve the quality of life through authentic, safe, and holistic care. As I continue to deepen my clinical knowledge and surgical acumen, I remain dedicated to evolving as a well-rounded Ayurvedic practitioner who integrates traditional practices with modern sensibilities.

REMEDIES

-TRIPHALA POWDER= 1 tsp with warm water at night =helps constipation and detox

-HINGWASTAKA CHURNA= 1/2 tsp with first bite of good =improves gas passage

-JEERA + AJWAIN + SAUNF TEA= for bloating and nausea

-ALOE VERA PULP= 2 tsp in morning =for acidity and mild constipation

LIFESTYLE -walk for 15-20 min after meals -do pawanmuktasana, vajrasana daily= gentle yoga improves digestion and gas passage -sleep early, avoid late night screen use

MEDICATIONS

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.

But can u tell me that but why there is difficult to pass gas and black stool

Hello mithi ,

I understand how uncomfortable and worrying these symptoms can feel. After gallbladder removal, your digestion can take time to adjust because bile, which helps digest fats, is no longer stored and released in the same way.

This can lead to gas, bloating, heaviness in the stomach, nausea, and acidity. Difficulty passing gas or stool may happen if your intestines are sluggish or irritated, and black blood in the stool can sometimes be due to minor irritation in the gut, but it can also signal bleeding in the stomach or intestines, so it needs careful evaluation immediately. Swelling in the ankle can be due to fluid imbalance, low protein, or vitamin/mineral deficiencies, especially since you have low hemoglobin (10) and vitamin D deficiency (18).

These symptoms cannot be ignored. You should see a gastroenterologist urgently for:

Stool examination and possibly colonoscopy or endoscopy Blood tests for anemia, liver function, kidney function, electrolytes Ultrasound if needed for fluid or intestinal issues

Meanwhile, supportive measures include:

Drink warm water regularly to help bowel movements Eat light, easily digestible meals (khichdi, dal, cooked vegetables, soups) Avoid oily, spicy, and heavy food Gentle walking can help stimulate bowel movement

Because of the black blood in stool and swelling, it’s important to get checked without delay, as these could indicate bleeding or other complications that need immediate attention.

Warmly, Dr. Karthika

HELLO MITHI,

1) AFTER GALLBLADDER REMOVAL (Cholecystectomy) -The gallbladder stores bile (a digestive juice from the liver) and releases it when you eat fatty food. -After removal, bile flows continuously in small amounts. This can disturb digestion and cause: —gas, bloating —indigestion and acidity —constipation or irregular bowel habits

2) YOUR CURRENT SYMPTOMS -Difficulty passing gas + constipation-> Vata imbalance (air movement blocked) -Black blood in stool-> possible upper digestive tract bleeding (like ulcers, gastritis) or partially digested blood from intestines -Heaviness, nausea, acidity-> weak digestive fire and ama (toxins) -Sweeling of ankles-> possible fluid retention , may be linked to liver/kidney strain

Because of black stool + swelling, you must also rule out serious medical conditions (like ulcers , liver disease, varices)

TREATMENT GOALS -Improve agni(digestive fire)-> to digest food properly, reduce heaviness -Remove ama (undigested toxins)-> which causes gas, bloating, nausea -Correct vata movement (vatanulomana)->to pass gas and stool easily -Stop bleeding safely -Reduce swelling-> improve liver/kidney function and circulation -Prevent recurrence with proper, diet, lifestyle, yoga and pranayama

INTERNAL MEDICATIONS

1) HINGWASTAKA CHURNA= 1/2 tsp with warm water after meals for 6 weeks =improves digestion, relieves gas, reduces bloating

2) AVIPATTIKAR CHURNA= 1 tsp with warm water before meals for 6 weeks =controls acidity, relieves nausea, balances pitta

3) TRIPHALA CHURNA = 1 tsp with warm water at bedtime for 3 months =gentle laxative, regulates bowel movement, detox

4) PUNARNAVA MANDUUR= 1 tab twice daily after meals for 3 months =reduces swelling/edema, improves liver and kidney

5) KUTAJRARISHTA= 2 tsp with equal water twice daily after meals for 6 weeks =controls diarrhoea/ bleeding, heals intestines

6) SUTSEKHAR RAS= 1 tab twice daily after meals for 4 weeks =for acidity, nausea, gastritis like symptoms

ACTIVE BLEEDING= take LODHRA CHURNA= 1 tsp twice daily

EXTERNAL TREATMENTS

ABDOMINAL FOMENTATION= warm ajwain, hing pottali (cloth bundle heated on pan) placed on stomach for 10-15 min-> relieves trapped gas

OIL MASSAGE= gentle sesame oil massage over abdomen and legs-> improves circulation, reduces swelling

DIET -Eat light, warm, freshly cooked food only -mung dal khichdi, rice gruel, vegetable soups, -steamed bottle gourd, pumpkin, ridge gourd, spinach, carrots -buttermilk with roasted cumin + rock salt

-Spices useful= hing, ajwain, cumin, coriander, black pepper small quantity

AVOID= oily, fired, spicy, junk, packaged , cold drinks, alcohol, excess coffee/tea

DRINK warm water instead of cold

LIFESTYLE AND YOGA -eat at regular times, avoid late nights dinners -sit quietly for 5 min after meals, then walk slowly -do not suppress natural urges - gas, urine, stool -sleeep early, wake up early

YOGA (gentle, daily 20-30 min) -pawanmuktasana= improves gas movement -vajrasana after meals 5 min= aids digestion -setu bandhasana= strengthens abdomen -Shavasana= for stress releif

PRANAYAM (10-15 min daily) -Anulom vilom= balance vatapitta -Bhramari= calms mind, reduces acidity -Avoid very forceful pranayam like kapalbhati until digestion improves

HOME REMEDIES -Ajwain + black salt= 1/2 tsp ajwain roasted, mixed with pinch of black salt, chew after meals -Ginger tea= fresh ginger boiled in water, sip warm before meals -Warm water + lemon (mild) in morning-> improves digestion avoid if acidity severe -Isabgol husk with warm water at night-> relieves constipation

INVESTIGATIONS NEEDED 1) Upper GI Endoscopy= to check stomach/duodenal ulcers, bleeding source 2) Liver function test= bilirubin, enzymes 3) Kidney function test= creatinine, urea, electrolytes 4) Ultrasound abdomen= check liver, bile ducts, pancreas 5) STOOL TEST= confirm bleeding

-Your digestion issues are mainly due to vata imbalance + weak agni after gallbladder removal -Ayurvedic treatment aims to rekindle digestion, balance vata, cleanse toxins, stop bleeding, and reduce swelling

DO FOLLOW

HOPE THIS MIGHT BE HELPFUL

THANK YOU

DR. MAITRI ACHARYA

Digestive issues after gallbladder removal is not uncommon, as the body adjusts to changes in digestion. The gallbladder stores bile, which aids in fat digestion, and its removal can lead to digestive disturbances. Post-surgical, the liver secretes bile directly into the intestines, which might cause diarrhoea, but in your case, constipation, bloating, and gas retention might occur as your system tries to adapt.

Your symptoms of constipation, the presence of black blood in your stool, heaviness, and swelling in the ankles, suggest a need for comprehensive evaluation. The presence of black blood may indicate gastrointestinal bleeding, which requires immediate medical attention. Black stool could be a sign of bleeding in the upper gastrointestinal tract, potentially exacerbated by medications or dietary irritants.

To address your digestive issues safely, consider these Ayurvedic recommendations alongside conventional treatment:

1. Dietary Adjustments: Opt for easily digestible foods. Consume warm, cooked meals like soups and stews. Include ghee or clarified butter in meals, which can aid digestion.

2. Herbs: Incorporate digestive-aiding herbs like ginger and hing (asafoetida) to support digestion. Brew a cup of ginger tea before meals to kindle agni, or the digestive fire.

3. Avoid raw and oily foods as they can aggravate vata, leading to gas retention. Limit dairy if it exacerbates your symptoms.

4. Hydration: Maintain adequate hydration, sipping warm water throughout the day which may help in relieving constipation.

5. Movement and Routine: Gentle yoga poses like Pavanamuktasana (Wind-Relieving Pose) can help release gas. Establish a consistent meal schedule to regulate digestion.

Remember, any new or worsening symptoms, especially the presence of blood in the stool, warrant immediate medical evaluation. While Ayurveda offers supportive remedies, the symptoms you’re experiencing need professional medical assessment without delay to ensure there’s no underlying condition needing conventional intervention.

The issues you’re facing seem to point towards a disturbance in digestion and circulation, potentially related to your gallbladder removal and nutrient imbalances. These symptoms are important and suggest that you might need a thorough medical evaluation, especially concerning black blood in stool which can be serious.

From a Siddha-Ayurvedic perspective, these problems likely reflect imbalanced doshas, particularly vata, leading to disturbed agni (digestive fire). After gallbladder removal, the body can have difficulty managing fats, affecting digestion. Weak digestion might cause gas, bloating, and difficulties with regular bowel movements.

First, focus on rekindling the agni. You can incorporate triphala churna. Take about 1 teaspoon of triphala powder with warm water at bedtime to promote regular bowel movements. Ensure your diet includes warm, light, and easily digestible foods like soups, rice, and well-cooked vegetables. Avoid heavy, spicy, and oily foods that could aggravate the condition.

For the nausea and acidity, chewing 5-6 leaves of fresh basil can calm your stomach. Include cumin and fennel teas post meals to ease digestion and help the passage of gas. Maintain hydration, but avoid drinking large amounts of water during meals.

It’s also crucial to address your vitamin D deficiency. Sun exposure for about 15-20 minutes daily and dietary sources like fortified products or supplements can help.

The swelling in the ankle and other symptoms might involve circulatory issues or imbalances in the dhatus. It’s advisable to consult a healthcare provider urgently to rule out any serious underlying conditions, particularly relating to the bleeding and swelling.

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.

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

Dr. Akshay Negi
I am currently pursuing my MD in Panchakarma, and by now I carry 3 yrs of steady clinical experience. Panchakarma for me is not just detox or some fancy retreat thing — it’s the core of how Ayurveda actually works to reset the system. During my journey I’ve handled patients with arthritis flares, chronic back pain, migraine, digestive troubles, hormonal imbalance, even skin and stress-related disorders... and in almost every case Panchakarma gave space for deeper healing than medicines alone. Working hands-on with procedures like Vamana, Virechana, Basti, Nasya, and Raktamokshana gave me a lot of practical insight. It's not just about performing the therapy, but understanding timing, patient strength, diet before and after, and how their mind-body reacts to cleansing. Some respond quick, others struggle with initial discomfort, and that’s where real patient support matters. I learnt to watch closely, adjust small details, and guide them through the whole process safely. My approach is always patient-centric. I don’t believe in pushing the same package to everyone. I first assess prakriti, agni, mental state, lifestyle, then decide what works best. Sometimes full Panchakarma isn’t even needed — simple modifications, herbs, or limited therapy sessions can bring results. And when full shodhana is required, I plan it in detail with proper purvakarma & aftercare, cause that’s what makes outcomes sustainable. The last few years made me more confident not just in procedures but in the philosophy behind them. Panchakarma isn’t a quick fix — it demands patience, discipline, trust. But when done right, it gives relief that lasts, and that’s why I keep refining how I practice it.

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. 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. 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. 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.
