Dr. Khushboo
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.

This is a comprehensive set of concerns, and it’s excellent that you’ve already adopted a healthy diet and exercise routine. . Your symptoms suggest a potential imbalance, likely involving Pitta (fire/metabolism) and Kapha (earth/water/structure) doshas, which are key to understanding the root cause in Ayurveda.

1. Skin Concerns: Oily Skin, Wrinkles, Dark Spots (Hyperpigmentation)

In Ayurveda, skin issues like hyperpigmentation and oily skin are often linked to an imbalance of Pitta (heat, inflammation, blood impurities) and sometimes excess Kapha (oiliness).

Internal Balance (Diet & Lifestyle): Focus on Pitta-Pacifying Foods: Your current diet (chicken, fish, salmon, salad, sweet potatoes, water) is generally good, but you may need to reduce excess heat. Be mindful of very hot/spicy foods, excessive consumption of citrus (like lots of orange juice/lemon water), or overly sour foods, as these can aggravate Pitta.

Aloe Vera: Cooling and healing. Use fresh gel internally (a small amount) and externally.

Hydration: Continue drinking plenty of water. Room temperature or warm water is preferred over cold.

External Care (Products & Routine): Cleanse: Use a gentle, herbal cleanser. Look for ingredients like Neem or Gram Flour (Besan), which help manage oil and cleanse without stripping the skin.

Tone: Rose water is a classic Pitta-pacifying toner. Masks/Spot Treatment: Sandalwood (Chandan) and Rose Water Paste: Sandalwood is very cooling and helps with dark spots and heat-related issues.

Moisturize/Oil: For wrinkles, consider a few drops of an Ayurvedic oil like Kumkumadi Tailam at night. Although your skin is oily, these oils are formulated to balance the skin and can be applied sparingly to address wrinkles and dark spots.

Sun Protection: This is critical for hyperpigmentation, especially for darker skin tones. Ayurveda emphasizes protection from direct, intense sun, which is a major Pitta aggravator. Use a broad-spectrum sunscreen daily.

2. Hair Loss, Fallout, Breakage, Bald Spots, and Edges

Hair issues are typically seen as a Pitta and Vata imbalance. Pitta-related loss often involves heat, inflammation, and thinning, while Vata-related loss involves dryness, breakage, and damage. Your symptoms suggest a need to cool Pitta and nourish Vata.

Ayurvedic Approach & Advice:

Internal Nourishment (Diet & Supplements): Nourish the Dhatus (Tissues): Hair is a by-product of bone tissue. Ensuring good nutrition helps. Your current diet with fish, salmon, nuts, and seeds is good for protein and healthy fats.

External Care (Routine & Products): Oil Massage (Shiro Abhyanga): This is essential. Use warm herbal oils 1-3 times a week before washing. Bhringaraj oil, Brahmi oil, or Coconut oil (Coconut is very cooling and good for Pitta-related heat/inflammation). Sesame oil is good for Vata/dryness. You may need a blend. Gently massage the scalp, especially the edges, for 10-15 minutes to increase circulation.

Gentle Cleansing: Avoid harsh shampoos. Look for natural cleansers like Shikakai or Reetha (soap nuts). Avoid Heat Damage: Minimize heat styling, chemical treatments, and tight styles that stress the edges. The breakage and damage suggest a need to address the Vata element of dryness and lack of lubrication.

3. Abdominal Fat Loss and Waist Reduction

Excess abdominal fat is predominantly an accumulation of Kapha dosha, which is characterized by heaviness, stagnation, and fat tissue accumulation (Meda Dhatu). Your commitment to a healthy diet and exercise is the foundation, but Ayurveda can offer targeted support.

Ayurvedic Approach & Advice:

Focus on Kapha-Pacifying Diet: Warm, Light, and Dry: Favor cooked vegetables and light grains. Minimize excessively sweet, cold, oily, or heavy foods.

Spices (Agni Enhancers): Spices are key to igniting your digestive fire (Agni). Use liberal amounts of Ginger, Black Pepper, Cinnamon, Cumin, Coriander, and Turmeric in your cooking. Honey: Use honey as your sweetener sparingly, and never cook or mix it with hot liquids (like a hot tea), as Ayurveda considers cooked honey toxic (Ama). Add it to warm (not hot) water or as a topping. Ayurvedic Drinks: Drink warm water throughout the day. Consider a simple detox tea: CCF Tea (Cumin, Coriander, Fennel seeds steeped in hot water). Start your day with warm water and lemon (without honey) to boost Agni.

Exercise and Routine: Consistency: Your current workout routine is good. Ensure it includes dynamic movement (to balance Kapha) and core work (like yoga poses: Naukasana/Boat Pose, Bhujangasana/Cobra Pose).

Udwarthanam (Dry Powder Massage): A specific Ayurvedic massage using herbal powders to stimulate fat metabolism and circulation. You can try self-massaging vigorously with a rough silk glove or a dry brush.

Kapalabhati Pranayama (Breath of Fire): This strong breathing exercise is excellent for stimulating the abdomen and digestive fire (Agni). Practice on an empty stomach.

Summary of Suggested Products/Remedies: For Skin 1) arogyavardhini rasa-500 mg before food with manjishtadi kashaya 3 times 2) syrup rakta shodhaka- 20 ml after food 2 times with water 3) kumkumadi oil- massage 2 times on face Hair (Loss, Damage, Edges) 1) bhringa amalakadi oil - massage 10 min 2 times 2) bhringraj churna 3 gm+ saptamrita loha 500 mg - after food with ghee and honey

Belly Fat (Waist Reduction) 1) tab navaka gugglu - 2 tab before food 3 times with honey

2) tab varunadi kashaya- after food with water 3 times

Hello Kimberly Thank you for sharing your concerns in detail. But dont worry we are here to help you out😊

✅ YOUR MAIN CONCERNS

1. Skin – Wrinkles, dark spots, uneven tone, oily skin. 2. Hair – Hair fall, thinning, breakage, bald spots, weak edges. 3. Body – Stubborn belly fat, want a smaller waist.

✅FOR SKIN (Wrinkles + Dark Spots + Oily Skin)

👉Internal support

1 Amla (Vitamin C rich) daily – fresh juice or powder in water.

2 Aloe vera juice 20 ml in the morning – helps cleanse liver and reduce pigmentation.

3 Flax seeds / chia seeds – balance oil production and reduce wrinkles.

👉Internal Medication 1 Manjisthadi ks tab 2-0-2 after food 2 Sarivasava 30ml-0-30ml after food

👉Topical natural care

Face pack: Sandalwood powder + rose water + turmeric (once weekly).

Use aloe vera gel or rose water as a toner for oily skin.

Moisturizer: Cold-pressed sesame oil or almond oil at night (only 2–3 drops).

✅FOR HAIR LOSS AND BALP SPOTS

✅Scalp nourishment

Warm onion juice + aloe vera gel mix, apply to scalp 30 minutes before washing – promotes regrowth. Massage with bhringraj oil + coconut oil 2–3 times weekly.

✅Internal Medication 1 Groo 1-0-1 after food 2 Jeevamrutham 1 tsp at bed time followed by warm water

Patience is key – new hair growth usually takes 3–6 months with consistent care.

✅FOR BELLY FAT AND WAIST SLIMMING

✅Diet modification

You already eat very healthy 👏 – just reduce orange juice & honey (too much sugar slows fat loss).

Focus on high-protein meals (lentils, beans, fish, eggs, quinoa).

Eat dinner light and before 7:30 pm.

✅Herbal support

1 Slimlim 1-0-1 after food

✅PHYSICAL EXERCISE

Exercise Core strengthening: planks, leg raises, twists. Mix cardio (walking, cycling) with strength training (weights / resistance bands).

✅ Lifestyle & Confidence Boost

Sleep well (7–8 hours) – helps skin glow and prevents weight gain.

Stress reduction (yoga, meditation, journaling) – stress worsens both hair fall & belly fat.

Consistency – visible results for hair & skin usually show in 3–6 months, for belly fat 2–4 months with diet + exercise.

Get your thyroid, Vitamin D, Iron, B12 checked – they affect hair, skin, and weight.

Don’t jump from one product to another; stick to a routine for at least 2–3 months.

👉 With discipline, you’ll see smoother skin, stronger hair, and a leaner waist in a few months.

Wishing you a good health😊

Warm Regards Dr Snehal Vidhate

HELLO KIMBERLY

Thank you so much for sharing so freely, Kimberly . I understand the intense frustration you’re holding with skin issues, hair problems, and needing to control your weight in a healthy manner. Ayurveda presents a wholistic approach—addressing not only the body, but also bringing balance back to your digestion, hormones, stress levels, and your confidence level.

1. Knowing Your Constitution (Prakriti & Imbalance) Based on your symptoms: -Oily complexion, dark spots, wrinkles → Pitta + Kapha imbalance -Hair loss, thinning edges, bald patches → Vata + Pitta imbalance (stress, heat, circulation problems) -Stomach fat, slow waist loss → Kapha imbalance (slow digestion, water retention) **Therefore, you require a Pitta-Kapha balancing regimen along with some Vata nourishment for hair.

2. Skin Health (Wrinkles, Dark Spots, Greasy Skin) Daily care: -Cleanser: Apply a natural cleanser with neem, turmeric, or manjistha powder (mix with rose water). -Toner: Rose water or cucumber water spray. -Moisturizer: Aloe vera gel with a few drops of jojoba oil. -Weekly: Use a face pack of sandalwood + turmeric + chickpea flour + rose water. Useful for pigmentation, excess oil, and smoothness.

Internal herbs: 1) Manjistha capsules– 1 cap twice daily after meals =blood purifier, dark spot clearer.

2) Neem capsules/powder –1 cap twice daily after meals = oil balancer and toxin balancer.

3) Amla powder or juice – 1 tsp with warm water in morning =rich in vitamin C, stops wrinkles and heals skin.

3. Hair Loss, Breakage, Bald Spots External care: -Warm oil massage 2–3 times/week: -Apply Bhringraj oil or Coconut oil with curry leaves & fenugreek seeds. -Massage scalp gently to enhance blood flow. -Avoid chemicals, tight styles, and too much heat.

-Weekly hair mask: Aloe vera gel + hibiscus powder + fenugreek paste → fortifies roots.

Internal herbs: 1)Bhringraj powder/capsules –1 cap at night “King of hair” in Ayurveda.

2) Ashwagandha – 1 tsp powder with warm milk at bedtime reduce stress-related hair fall.

3)Triphala – 1 tsp with warm water at bedtime cleanses gut, improves nutrient absorption for hair.

4. Stomach Fat & Waist Reduction You’re already eating clean—great foundation Now, Ayurveda focuses on Agni (digestive fire):

Diet guidance: -Prefer warm, lightly spiced foods (ginger, cumin, turmeric, black pepper). -Avoid too much orange juice & sweet fruits (increase Kapha & sugar). -Use lemon water instead. -Drink honey water (warm, not hot) in the morning – aids in reducing fat. -Dinner is light: soup, vegetables, or kichari (lentils + rice + spices).

Lifestyle: -Fasting: Intermittent fasting (like you already do) is fine. -Yoga: Twist postures, kapalabhati (fire breath), plank variations. -Walking after meals aids digestion and avoids belly fat storage.

Ayurvedic herbs: 1)Triphala at night – aids digestion, removes toxins.

2) Triphala Guggul –2 tabs after meals naturally burns excess fat.

3)Fenugreek seeds (overnight soaked) – stabilizes sugar, supports metabolism.

5. Mind-Body Connection -At times, skin, hair, and weight problems get aggravated by stress hormones. -Meditation/Pranayama: Do 10–15 mins every day. -Abhyanga (self-massage) – alleviates stress, balances doshas. -Sleep: Try to have 7–8 hrs; poor sleep causes hair loss & skin problems.

6. Product Recommendations (Ayurvedic) For skin: Neem + Manjistha + Aloe vera gel products. For hair: Bhringraj oil, Brahmi oil, Hibiscus-based hair mask. For metabolism: Triphala, Guggul, Fenugreek. For stress: Ashwagandha, Brahmi. Choose organic or Ayurvedic brands such as Himalaya, Banyan Botanicals, Kerala Ayurveda, or Organic India.

HOPE THIS MIGHT BE HELPFUL

Addressing the concerns about your skin, hair, and weight requires a comprehensive approach based on Ayurvedic principles. For wrinkles and dark spots, the focus should be on enhancing your skin’s natural glow and tone. Massage your face with Kumkumadi Tailam, which contains saffron, an ingredient renowned for brightening and nourishing the skin. Use a paste of Turmeric (Haldi) mixed with honey and a few drops of lemon juice as a weekly mask. This can help even out skin tone and reduce pigmentation. Avoid excessive sun exposure and apply a natural sunscreen like aloe vera gel with a few drops of coconut oil.

For oily skin management, cleansing is crucial. Prepare a face wash with chickpea flour (Besan), turmeric, and yogurt. This will help to remove the excess oil. Drinking warm water with a pinch of turmeric every morning could support internal detoxification and improve skin health over time.

Regarding hair loss, your diet and stress management are key. Nourish your hair her with Amla (Indian Gooseberry) supplements or fresh juice, and consider applying Bhringraj oil thrice weekly. This strengthens the hair follicles reducing breakage and promoting regrowth. Brahmi and Ashwagandha supplements can balance doshas, reducing stress which is vital for hair health.

For reducing stomach fat, focus on strengthening your digestive system (Agni). Consider Trikatu powder—a blend of three spices (black pepper, long pipper, ginger) to boost metabolism. Consume this before meals for better digestion. Engage in Kapalabhati (a breathing exercise) in morning to aid in reducing belly fat, however caution is needed if you have high blood pressure.

Remember to maintain consistency while respecting your body’s unique constitution. Alongside, a holistic routine underpinned by the wisdom of Ayurveda can lead to profound improvements in well-being and self-confidence over time.

For the issues you’re dealing with, the Siddha-Ayurvedic approach considers the balance of doshas and the vitality of agni, or digestive fire. Let’s break down your concerns.

Firstly, for skin issues like wrinkles, dark spots, and smoothing, a high amount of pitta imbalance could be playing a role. Oily skin further suggests kapha involvement. Applying a turmeric and sandalwood paste has a cooling effect and can help clarify the skin. Be sure to use these external applications sparingly and consult with a professional to avoid aggravating conditions. Avoid hot, spicy, and greasy foods to decrease pitta and kapha, which can exacerbate these skin conditions.

Hair issues such as loss and breakage can also be linked to pitta dosha imbalance, possibly aggravated by mental stress (also rooted in vata aggravation). Applying bhringraj oil regularly can nourish hair roots and promote growth. Incorporating amla in your diet or as a supplement helps fortify hair by providing natural Vitamin C, supporting both kapha and pitta balance.

For fat on the stomach, even with a healthy diet, stubborn belly fat can reflect low digestive fire or agni. Adding a pinch of trikatu (a mix of black pepper, long pepper, and ginger) to your meals can enhance digestion and metabolism, encouraging weight loss. Regularly practice twisting yoga poses to stimulate digestion and help reduce abdominal fat.

You are already following a good diet and hydration but ensure exercise includes varying routines like yoga or pilates plus regular cardiovascular activities. Avoid late heavy meals which can slow digestive fire. All changes should align with your lifestyle so they remain sustainable and effective.

This advice is grounded in Ayurvedic practices; however, always consult with healthcare providers when trying new routines, especially when considering potential interactions or pre-existing conditions.

Dr. Sara Garg
I am someone who believes Ayurveda isn’t just some old system — it’s alive, and actually still works when you use it the way it's meant to be used. My practice mostly revolves around proper Ayurvedic diagnosis (rogi & roga pariksha types), Panchakarma therapies, and ya also a lot of work with herbal medicine — not just prescribing but sometimes preparing stuff myself when needed. I really like that hands-on part actually, like knowing where the herbs came from and how they're processed... changes everything. One of the things I pay a lot of attention to is how a person's lifestyle is playing into their condition. Food, sleep, bowel habits, even small emotional patterns that people don't even realize are affecting their digestion or immunity — I look at all of it before jumping to treatment. Dietary therapy isn’t just telling people to eat less fried food lol. It’s more about timing, combinations, seasonal influence, and what suits their prakriti. That kind of detail takes time, and sometimes patients don’t get why it matters at first.. but slowly it clicks. Panchakarma — I do it when I feel it's needed. Doesn’t suit everyone all the time, but in the right case, it really clears the stuck layers. But again, it's not magic — people need to prep properly and follow instructions. That's where strong communication matters. I make it a point to explain everything without dumping too much Sanskrit unless they’re curious. I also try to keep things simple, like I don’t want patients feeling intimidated or overwhelmed with 10 things at once. We go step by step — sometimes slow, sometimes quick depending on the case. There’s no “one protocol fits all” in Ayurveda and frankly I get bored doing same thing again and again. Whether it’s a fever that won’t go or long-term fatigue or gut mess — I usually go deep into what's behind it. Surface-level fixes don’t last. I rather take the time than rush into wrong herbs. It’s more work, ya, but makes a diff in long run.

Dr. Gursimran Jeet Singh
I am Dr. Gursimran Jeet Singh, born and raised in Punjab where culture and traditions almost naturally guided me toward Ayurveda. From very early days I felt more drawn to natural ways of healing, and this curiosity finally led me to pursue Bachelor of Ayurvedic Medicine and Surgery (BAMS) at Shri Dhanwantry Ayurvedic College, Chandigarh—an institution known for shaping strong Ayurvedic physicians. During those years I learned not only the classical texts and treatment methods, but also how to look at health through a very practical, human lense. For the past five years I worked in clinical practice, where patients come with wide range of concerns—from chronic digestion troubles to autoimmune illness—and I try to integrate both Ayurveda and modern medical knowledge to give them the most complete care I can. Sometimes western diagnostics help me to understand the stage of disease, while Ayurveda helps me design treatment that address root cause. This bridging approach is not always easy, but I believe it’s necessary for today’s health challanges. Currently I am also pursuing higher studies in Panchakarma therapy. Panchakarma is an area I feel very strongly about—it is not just detox, it is a whole system of cleansing, rejuvenation, rebalancing, and I want to deepen my expertise here. In practice, I combine Panchakarma with lifestyle guidance, diet planning, herbal remedies, yoga and mindfulness practices depending on what a patient actually needs at that moment. No two cases are same, and Ayurveda reminds me daily that healing must be personal. My approach is always focused on root-cause management rather than temporary relief. Diet, herbs, therapeutic oils, meditation routines, and simple daily habits—they all work together when chosen rightly. Sometimes results come slow, sometimes faster, but I try to keep care sustainable and compassionate. Helping someone regain energy, sleep better, or reduce pain, that is the real achievement in my journey. And I continue learning, because Ayurveda is deep, it doesn’t finish with one degree or one training, it grow with every patient and every experiance.My specialties lie in treating a range of chronic and lifestyle-related conditions using Ayurveda’s time-tested principles, tailored to each individual’s unique constitution (Prakriti). I have significant expertise in managing digestive disorders, such as irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), acid reflux, constipation, diabetes, obesity and inflammatory bowel diseases. I also specialize in addressing stress-related and mental health conditions, including anxiety, depression, insomnia, and burnout, which are increasingly common in today’s fast-paced world. By integrating therapies like Shirodhara (oil pouring on the forehead) to calm the nervous system, Abhyanga (herbal oil massages) to balance Vata dosha, and adaptogenic herbs like Ashwagandha and Brahmi, I help patients achieve mental clarity and emotional resilience. In the field of musculoskeletal and joint health, I excel in treating conditions like arthritis (rheumatoid and osteoarthritis), back pain, sciatica, and sports injuries. Using therapies such as Kati Basti (localized oil retention on the lower back) and potent anti-inflammatory herbs like Guggulu and Shallaki, I focus on reducing inflammation, improving joint mobility, and strengthening tissues. My treatments have helped many patients, particularly those seeking non-invasive alternatives, regain mobility and reduce pain through a blend of internal medications and external therapies. Skin disorders are another key area of my practice, where I address conditions like eczema, psoriasis, acne, and pigmentation issues holistically. By focusing on blood purification and balancing Pitta dosha and detoxifying Panchakarma techniques like Raktamokshana (bloodletting). My approach targets dietary and lifestyle triggers, offering sustainable results for clients who previously relied on temporary solutions like topical steroids. My dual expertise in Ayurveda and modern medicine allows me to create integrative treatment plans that are both effective and safe. I am deeply committed to patient education, empowering individuals to embrace Ayurvedic principles for sustainable health. Through this online platform, I am excited to offer virtual consultations, making the profound benefits of Ayurveda accessible to all. Whether you seek relief from a specific condition or aim to enhance overall vitality, I look forward to guiding you on your journey to balance and well-being with compassion and expertise.

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

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. Garima Mattu
I am working in Ayurveda for about 2 years now, mainly around gynecological problems, which I honestly feel are way more common than most people realise. I see a lot of women struggling silently with issues like irregular periods, cramps that just don’t stop, mood swings, PCOS kind of symptoms... sometimes they come in after trying a bunch of stuff already n nothing really works long-term. That’s where I try to bring in a more rooted approach. I use a mix of Ayurvedic principles, dietetics (like food based on dosha & body type etc), and yoga therapy to manage these conditions. It’s not just about reducing pain during periods or balancing hormones—it’s more like trying to understand what’s causing the imbalances in the first place. I spend time trying to map the prakriti-vikriti profile and see how stress, food, daily habits are impacting the cycle. I don’t rush things, coz honestly healing isn't linear and doesn't follow some fixed timeline. And not everyone wants to jump into panchakarma straightaway either, right? Also pain management is a big part of my work. Whether it’s period cramps or pelvic pain, or even chronic stuff tied to digestion and fatigue, I look at how we can ease that naturally. Sometimes through simple things like castor oil packs, or subtle shifts in routine, other times I may recommend herbs or formulations. Yoga plays a huge role too, esp. when the body feels stuck or inflamed. Not gym-style yoga, more therapeutic.. breath n movement syncing with dosha correction, that kind of thing. To be honest, I’m still learning—Ayurveda’s depth is huge, and I feel like I’m just getting started. But what I do know is, when I see women begin to trust their own body’s rhythm again, that’s really powerful. Makes all the effort worth it. Even small relief matters. It's not perfect, sometimes things take longer, sometimes we need to adjust mid-way... but it's real.

Dr. Shivanshu Sharma
I am Dr. Shivanshu Sharma, an Ayurveda physician with main focus on preventive cardiology and lifestyle related disorders, which slowly became the center of my clinical interest. I completed my BAMS from Vaidya Yagya Dutt Sharma Ayurvedic Mahavidyalaya, Khurja, affiliated to CCS University, where I build a solid base in classical Ayurveda along with practical clinical exposure to many medical conditions. Those early years shaped how I look at chronic disease today, sometimes in simple ways, sometimes more complex. To strengthen my work in heart health, I completed a Certificate Course in Preventive Cardiology from the National Institute of Ayurveda, Jaipur. This training helped me understand cardiovascular risk assesment, early detection of high risk individuals, and holistic management of hypertension, diabetes, dyslipidemia, obesity and metabolic syndrome using Ayurvedic principles mixed with modern preventive cardiology ideas. The balance is not always easy, but it feels necessary. Currently, I am pursuing a Master of Public Health (MPH) from Max Society of Medical Academics Innovation and Research (MSMAIR), which adds a broader public health and evidence informed angle to my clinical thinking. I try to look beyond symptoms, focusing on long term prevention, lifestyle correction and patient awareness. Learning still feels ongoing, sometimes slow, but it keeps my practice grounded and real.
