Dr. Ravi Chandra Rushi
I am currently serving as a Consultant Ayurvedic Ano-Rectal Surgeon at Bhrigu Maharishi Ayurvedic Hospital, Nalgonda, where I specialize in the diagnosis, treatment, and long-term management of various ano-rectal disorders. My clinical focus lies in treating conditions such as piles (Arsha), fistula-in-ano (Bhagandara), fissure-in-ano (Parikartika), rectal polyps, and pilonidal sinus using time-tested Ayurvedic approaches like Ksharasutra, Agnikarma, and other para-surgical procedures outlined in classical texts. With a deep commitment to patient care, I emphasize a holistic treatment protocol that combines precise surgical techniques with Ayurvedic formulations, dietary guidance, and lifestyle modifications to reduce recurrence and promote natural healing. I strongly believe in integrating traditional Ayurvedic wisdom with patient-centric care, which allows for better outcomes and long-lasting relief. Working at Bhrigu Maharishi Ayurvedic Hospital has provided me with the opportunity to handle a wide range of surgical and post-operative cases. My approach is rooted in classical Shalya Tantra, enhanced by modern diagnostic insights. I stay updated with advancements in Ayurvedic surgery while adhering to evidence-based practices to ensure safety and efficacy. Beyond clinical practice, I am also committed to raising awareness about Ayurvedic proctology and promoting non-invasive treatments for conditions often mismanaged or overtreated by modern surgical approaches. I strive to make Ayurvedic surgical care accessible, effective, and aligned with the needs of today’s patients, while preserving the essence of our traditional healing system. Through continuous learning and compassionate practice, I aim to offer every patient a respectful, informed, and outcome-driven experience rooted in Ayurveda.

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.

HELLO,

1) BREAST LUMP You mentioned 4-5 cm lump in the left breast, confirmed by sonography, described as “two fibrolumps joined” This is fibroadenoma- a non cancerous growth made of glandular and fibrous breast tissue

WHY IT FORMS -Kapha dosha creates heaviness,mucus like tissue and stagnation -Pitta dosha adds local inflammation and tenderness -Ama (toxins from weak digestion) circulates in blood and lymph, accumulating in breast tissue -blocked strotas (micro channels)stops proper movement of lymph and hormones- leading to a lump

MODERN TERMS Fibroadenoma forms when estrogen(female hormone)stimulates breast tissue growth. It’s common in young women and usually harmless but needs observation

2) PCOS - polycystic ovarian syndrome You also have PCOS - bulky left ovary, facial hair, reduced flow but regular periods

pcos= imbalance of vata-kapha dosha -Vata controls hormonal rhythm, ovulation, and egg release -Kapha leads to cyst formation, weight gain, oily skin, hair growth -Pitta aggravation causes acne and irregular flow -Ama (metabolic waste) clogs ovarian channels

so both breast lump and PCOS share kapha-ama dominance- meaning thick, sluggish, blocked metabolic flow

TREATMENT GOALS -break the lump and stop further tissue overgrowth -balance hormones naturally by improving metabolism -remove ama (toxins) and open body channels -correct digestion and acidity, the root of hormone imbalance -regulate menstrual cycle and improve blood flow -prevent recurrence

INTERNAL MEDICATIONS

1) KANCHANAR GUGGULU= 2 tabs twice daily after meals with warm water =main for fibrocystic growths reduces kapha, dissolves lumps, purifies lymph

2) TRIPHALA GUGGULU = 1 tab twice daily after meals =cleanses blood, improves circulation, mild anti inflammatory, helps absorption of other medicines

3) MANJISTHA KASHAYA= 20 ml with equal warm water twice daily before meals = detoxifies blood and lymph, supports liver function, reduces inflammation and pigmentation

4) VARUNADI KAHSAYA= 20 ml with equal wtaer twice daily before meals =breaks cysts, removes fluid accumulation, balances hormones

5) PUNARNAVA MANDUR = 1 tab twice daily after meals =removes swellings balances kapha, purifies blood, supports liver and kidney detox

6) SHATAVARI CHURNA= 1 tsp twice daily with lukewarm water =balances female hormones, nourishes uterus and ovaries improves cycle regularity

7) SUKUMAR GHRITA= 1 tsp in warm milk early morning on empty stomach =rejuvenates reproductive system, supports hormone rhythm , lubricates vata

8) AVIPATTIKAR CHURNA= 1/2 tsp before meals twice daily with warm water =controls acidity, improves digestion, reduces pita and ama formation

DURATION= minimum 3 months

EXTERNAL THERAPIES

1) HERBAL PASTE -Mix Kanchanar churna + turmeric + cow ghee into a soft paste, apply gently over the lump area for 15 min, then wash with warm water =reduces local swelling and improves circulation

2) CASTOR OIL PACK -warm a little castor oil, soak a cotton cloth, place over breast (not nipple), cover with towel for 15-20 min daily = draws toxins, relieves pain, soften lumps

LIFESTYLE -wake before sunrise, sleep before 10 pm -avoid daytime sleep increases kapha -walk briskly 30 min daily or do surya namaskar 10 rounds -avoid tight bras or synthetic fabric -manage stress-cortisol affects both breast and ovarian hormones

DIET -warm , light, cooked meals, avoid skipping meals -green leafy vegetables , gourd, carrots, beets -whole grains= millet, barley, red rice, quinoa -flaxseed powder 1 tsp/day- balances estrogen -herbal teas= jeera +ajwain+saunf, ginger tulsi lemon -use spices= turmeric, cumin, black pepper, coriander improve digestion

AVOID -dairy milk, curd, panner, cheese especially at night -cold drinks, sweets, bakery ,fried, or oily food -red meat, alcohol ,caffeine -emotional eating or late night snacks

YOGA ASANAS -Bhujangasana= improves breast and ovarian ciruclation -setu bandhasnaa= strengthens pelvic organs -supta baddha konasana= opes hip region, balances hormones -ardha matsyendrasana= stimulates liver and pancreas -surya namaskar= complete body activation

PRANAYAM -Anulom vilom= balances hormones and stress -kapalbhati= burns excess kapha and belly fat -bhramari= calms mind, and balances neuro hormonal axis

HOME REMEDIES -warm turmeric milk once daily -aloe vera juice 15 ml morning empty stomach -methi seed water soak overnight have in morning -cumincoriandr fennel water throughout the day

Your condition is reversible with consistency Fibroadenomas often shrink when kapha-ama are reduced and hormones balanced PCOS takes 4-6 months of steady lifestyle and Ayurvedic therapy to normalise ovulation and hair growth Surgery is only considered if lumps enlarges, causes pain or FNAC. shows atypical cells- otherwise Ayurveda manage well

KEY TO HEALING Light food, active body, calm mind, and regularity in routine are the real medicines

DO FOLLOW

HOPE THIS MIGHT BE HELPFUL

THANK YOU

Hello Thank you for sharing your detailed history. I understand your concern — at 20 years old, facing both a fibroadenoma (breast lump) and PCOS can feel worrisome, especially when there’s confusion between continuing Ayurvedic treatment and opting for surgery. But dont worry we are here to help you out😊

✅AYURVEDIC PLAN OF TREATMENT

✅ INTERNAL MEDICATION

1. Kanchanar Guggulu – 2 tablets twice daily after food with warm water ( Helps shrink fibroadenoma, dissolves Kapha lumps, clears toxins in lymphatic channels.)

2. Varunadi Kashayam – 15 ml twice daily before meals with equal water ( Acts as Granthi Nashak and supports lymphatic and hormonal detox.)

3. Arogya Vardhini Vati – 1 tablet twice daily after meals ( Regulates liver metabolism, balances hormones, and helps in PCOS correction.)

4. Shatavari Churna – 1 tsp with lukewarm milk at bedtime ( Nourishes Artava Dhatu, improves menstrual flow, and supports reproductive health.)

5. Triphala Guggulu – 2 tablets twice daily after meals (Works as detoxifier, anti-inflammatory, and reduces internal Ama.)

✅Panchakarma Support (If Available)

To remove deep-seated toxins and regulate hormones, the following therapies are helpful once your Agni (digestion) is balanced:

-Virechana (Pitta–Kapha Shodhana) – mild purgation to clear Ama and regulate liver & hormones. -Udwartana (Herbal Powder Massage) – for Kapha–Medo reduction. -Basti Therapy (Matra or Ksheer Basti) – to pacify Vata and improve reproductive organ function.

✅DIET AND LIFESTYLE MODIFICATION

✅ Include

Warm, freshly cooked light meals: moong dal khichdi, vegetable soups. Use spices like turmeric, cumin, coriander, fenugreek (methi) to improve metabolism. Include cow’s ghee in moderation – it balances Vata and supports hormonal function. Drink Jeera–Ajwain–Saunf water daily to relieve bloating and acidity. Eat pomegranate, papaya, and leafy greens for iron and hormone balance.

❌ Avoid

Cold, stale, oily, and heavy Kapha-producing foods (curd,cheese, sweets). Late-night eating, skipping meals, or overeating. Refined sugar, bakery foods, and carbonated drinks. Stress and irregular sleep — they aggravate Vata and worsen PCOS.

✅EFFECTIVE HOME REMEDIES

1. Turmeric Milk with Trikatu Mix 1 cup warm milk + ¼ tsp turmeric + pinch of Trikatu (dry ginger, black pepper, long pepper). Drink at night for anti-inflammatory and Kapha-reducing effect.

2. Castor Oil Pack for Breast Apply warm castor oil gently over lump area (avoid nipple region) for 10–15 mins. Helps improve lymphatic drainage and reduce hardness.

3. Methi (Fenugreek) Seeds Water Soak 1 tsp methi seeds overnight, drink that water in the morning. Reduces Kapha, improves hormonal balance, and aids digestion.

4. Aloe Vera & Amla Juice (Morning) 15 ml each mixed in warm water — helps detoxify liver, improves metabolism, and supports PCOS.

✅Surgery Decision

Since your FNAC reports have shown only benign (non-cancerous) fibroadenoma, and the lump is stable, you can continue Ayurvedic management for at least 3–6 months before considering surgery. However, if the lump grows rapidly, becomes painful, or changes shape, surgical opinion should be taken immediately.

With consistent Ayurvedic treatment, diet discipline, and stress management, both fibroadenoma and PCOS can be controlled effectively.

Periodic sonography (every 6 months) is advised to monitor lump size.

Wishing you a good health😊

Warm Regards Dr. Snehal Vidhate

Considering the size and persistence of your breast lump, it’s crucial to prioritize your safety first. I would recommend consulting an oncologist or a breast surgeon for further evaluation. Given the history of atypical cells found on the FNAC, surgical intervention might be needed, which only vcan be determined by a medical specialist. Meanwhile, Ayurvedic remedies may help manage secondary symptoms like PCOS and acidity.

For managing PCOS and improving hormonal balance, Ayurvedic herbs can be beneficial. Kachnaar Guggulu is often used, but adding Ashoka (Saraca asoca) and Shatavari (Asparagus racemosus) might promote better menstrual health and reduce kapha congestion. These herbs can be taken in tablet or powder form as directed by an Ayurvedic practitioner. Consindering the bulky ovary and hormonal imbalance resembling kapha dosha patterns, focus on a diet that is warm, light and drying.

For acidity, consider Ayurveda’s emphasis on maintaining strong agni, or digestive fire. Consume amla (Indian gooseberry) juice in the morning on an empty stomach, as it helps to balance pitta and boost digestion. Drink cumin, coriander, and fennel tea to manage digestive disturbances. Keep meals warm, cooked and include digestive spices like ginger and turmeric.

Supplements Lime Austerity Practicing pranayama like Anulom Vilom will help detoxify and balance vata and moderate unwanted facial hair growth. Engage in moderate daily exercise—such as yoga or brisk walking—to reduce kapha, enhance circulation and reduce reproductive inflammation.

Remember that these recommendations should be tailored to your specific condition, so it’s good to consult with a professional Ayurvedic practitioner for guidance. This personalized advice will ensure you are addressing the root causes with safe, effective methods.

Dr. Hemanshu Mehta
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.

Dr. Haresh Vavadiya
I am an Ayurvedic doctor currently practicing at Ayushakti Ayurveda—which honestly feels more like a learning ecosystem than just a clinic. Being here has changed the way I look at chronic conditions. You don’t just treat the label—you go after the cause, layer by layer, and that takes patience, structure, and real connection with the person sitting in front of you. Ayushakti has been around 33+ years, with global reach and seriously refined clinical systems. That means I get to work with protocols that are both deeply rooted in traditional Ayurveda and also super practical for today’s world. Whether I’m managing arthritis, asthma, skin issues like eczema or psoriasis, hormone trouble, gut problems, or stress overload—my first step is always a deep analysis. Prakriti, doshas, ahar-vihar, past treatments—everything gets mapped out. Once I’ve got that picture clear, I create a plan using herbal medicines, detox programs (especially Panchakarma), Marma therapy if needed, and definitely food and routine corrections. But nothing’s random. Each piece is chosen for *that* person. And I don’t just prescribe—I explain. Because when someone knows *why* they’re doing a certain thing, they stick with it longer, and the results hold. One thing I’ve learned while working here is how powerful Ayurved can be when it's structured right. At Ayushakti, that structure exists. It helps me treat confidently and track results properly. Whether I’m working with a first-time visitor or a patient who’s been dealing with the same thing for 10 years, my goal stays the same—help their system return to a natural, sustainable state of balance. What I really enjoy is seeing how people’s mindset changes once they start to feel better. When they stop depending on just temporary relief and start building their health from within—that’s when the real shift happens. And being part of that shift? That’s why I do this.

I am an Ayurvedic doctor trying to bring the old wisdom of chikitsa into daily life, even if sometime I feel I am still learning new things every single day.. I work mostly with the classical principles, the ones I studied again n agin during my training, and I try to see how they fit with each patient’s prakriti and the tiny details of their health story. I am often thinking how Ayurveda doesn’t rush anything, it asks for understanding of the roga and even the rogi in a deeper way, and I keep that in mind when someone walks in and tell me their concerns. Some cases are simple, some not really, but I do my best to look at the ahara, vihara, dosha pattern and even the habits they don’t notice at first. Sometimes I get a bit caught up in analysing too many factors at once, or typing notes too fas and mixing commas,, but at the core I focus on using authentic Ayurvedic approaches—herbal formulations, routine correction, panchkarma suggestions where needed—and I try to guide people gently without overwhelming them. I am also aware that many patients come with doubts or half-heard ideas about Ayurveda, and I try to clear those without sounding too “doctorly,” just explaining what makes sense for their body. I want them to feel they can trust the process, even if progress take time or feel slow on some days. I am still growing in this field, and every person who comes to me reminds me why I chose Ayurveda in the first place: clarity, balance, and healing that respects the person as a whole. There are moments where I wish I had more hours in a day to study more granthas or revise a chapter I skipped, but I stay committed to giving care that is genuine, thoughtful and rooted in traditional practice—even if the journey gets a bit messy here n there !!

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.

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.

I am a doctor who has worked as an intern in a Government hospital in Mysore, and that time shaped a lot of my basic clinical thinking. During that period I was exposed to many real life cases, from OPD work to emergency situations, and it helped me understand how different patients respond in real settings. I also spent time working in rural hospitals, where resources were limited but learning was deep and practical. Along with hospital work, I volunteered in many medical camps, where I got to interact with patients from different backgrounds and health conditions. These experiences taught me how important clear communication and patience really is. Sometimes things did not go as planned, but that is how learning happens. Working in these setups helped me build confidence, responsibility and a better understanding of patient care at ground level. I still carry those lessons with me in daily practice, and they continue to shape how I approach treatment and decision making.

I am a doctor with hands on experience in managing skin disorders, spinal problems and long standing joint conditions like rheumatoid arthritis. Over the years I have worked with many patients who come with daily pain, stiffness, nerve related discomfort and skin issues that slowly affect their routine. My focus stays on understanding how these problems develop over time, not just treating the surface symptoms. I spend a lot of time looking at posture, movement patterns, daily habits and how the body reacts to stress and workload. Many cases involve back pain, neck stiffness, joint swelling or chronic skin concerns, and each one behaves little different. Sometimes improvement is quick, sometimes it takes patience, but I try to guide the process carefully. I believe treatment should be practical and realistic, not rushed. I pay close attention to history, lifestyle and body response before deciding next steps. Over time this approach has helped me manage long term conditions in a steady way, even when progress feels slow or uneven.

Dr. Nayan Wale
I am working in medical field for total 7 years, out of which around 4 years was in hospital setup and 3 years in clinic practice. Hospital work gave me strong base, long duty hours, different type of cases, emergencies sometimes, and learning under pressure. Clinic work is different, slower but deeper, where I sit with patients, listen more, explain things again n again, and follow them over time. In hospital I handled day to day OPD cases, routine management, and also assisted seniors when things got complicated. That phase shaped my clinical thinking a lot, even now I sometimes catch myself thinking like hospital mode when a case looks serious. Clinic practice on the other hand taught me patience. Patients come with chronic issues, expectations, doubts, sometimes fear, and I had to adjust my approach accordingly. I focus on practical treatment planning, not just diagnosis on paper. Some days I feel I should have more time with each patient, but I try to balance it. My experience across hospital and clinic helps me understand both acute care and long term disease management. I still keep learning everyday, reading, observing patterns, correcting myself when needed, because medicine never stays same for long, and neither should the doctor.

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. Shilpa Shijil
I am still learning how to describe myself without sounding too stiff, but I do feel that my personal and inter-personal skills shape a big part of how I work. I try to stay approachable and not make pts feel rushed, even on days when time is slipping fast. I listen first, maybe longer than needed sometimes, just to catch the small hints in their words or their silence. I end up absorbing a bit of their pain or worry too, and then I remind myself to stay focused so I can actually help them, not just feel it. I am seeing people as whole beings, not just their symptoms or test values, and that keeps my treatment more grounded. I explain things in simple ways, though I get tangled in my phrasing here and there, but I make sure they and their family know what we’re doing and why. I try to stay honest even when the truth is slow progess or a rough patch in the condition. I am pretty dedicated to ethical practice, sometimes to the point where I double-check a simple step, and I don’t mind spending extra time if it means the plan is right. I push myself to keep learning, reading, attending discussions, all without getting scared of criticism, though a harsh comment stings me for a bit. I enjoy public interaction too—talking to groups, answering doubts, explaining Ayurveda without overcomplicating it. I am still shaping these skills every day, but they guide me in giving care that feels human, steady and trustworthy, even on the messy days when I am juggling too many things at once.

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. 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?
