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. 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.

Hello I‍‌‍‍‌‍‌‍‍‌ totally get your point. Hair that is dry, frizzy, and tangled only a day after washing, hair that is losing strength and even hair falling when not combing are all symptoms of Severe Vata–Pitta imbalance in the scalp + loss of hair moisture barrier + weak hair roots (Keshabala).

✅AYURVEDIC UNDERSTANDING OF YOUR CONDITION

👉Vata dominance in scalp - dryness, frizz, tangling When there is high level of Vata: Scalp becomes dry The hair cuticle is lifted which results in frizz The ends of the hair become dry and therefore it tangles and you also get hair loss caused by friction

👉 Pitta disturbance - weak roots + hair thinning You are having these symptoms: Drop of hair even when you don’t touch the head That the hair has no strength The hair loses its lustre What you are seeing is Pitta that is causing hair follicles inflammation and the roots to be weak and hair brittle.

👉 Disturbed Scalp Barrier Frequent washing with natural products and use of harsh shampoos results to taking away the scalp oils hair looks dry within a day.

✅ TREATMENT PLAN

✅INTERNAL MEDICINES (Strengthen roots + reduce dryness) 1 Narikela Lavan – ½ tsp with warm water after lunch 2 Bhringraj Capsule – 1 capsule twice daily 3 Triphala 1 tsp at night with warm water (fixes absorption and improves hair nourishment) 4 Groo 1-0-1 after food

All of these reduce dryness and also nourish the hair from the inside.

✅EXTERNAL SCALP TREATMENT (Most Important)

Oil Therapy (3 times/week) Warm Bhringraj Oil + Coconut Oil (50-50 mix) Apply to scalp and ends at night. This will: Bring back smoothness Help to eliminate frizz Stop breakage Strengthen roots Weekly Hair Mask (Deep hydration)

Do it once a week: Mask recipe: 2 tbsp aloe vera gel (fresh preferred) 2 tbsp coconut milk 1 tsp castor oil 1 tsp hibiscus powder

Apply from scalp to ends leave 25 minutes and rinse with lukewarm water (no hot water). This hydrates deeply.

✅ Shampoo Routine (Your current routine is causing dryness)

Follow this shampoo method: Use a sulphate-free mild shampoo Only the scalp needs to be shampooed Conditioner is to be used only on the length and ends of hair Next day, do NOT oil-wash (if oil is used, it is better to leave it overnight) Hot water contributes to hair becoming more frizzy so it is better to use lukewarm water only.

✅ HOME REMEDIES (Very effective)

–Fenugreek (Methi) hydration rinse Methi is taken 1 tbsp and soaked overnight Water is strained The water is used as the last rinse after shampooing It gives shine + removes frizz + strengthens the roots.

– Sesame seeds (internal) One teaspoon of white sesame should be eaten every morning. It makes the following processes faster: Hair strengthening Natural sebum production Hair roots getting nourished

✅ LIFESTYLE RECOMMENDATIONS

Put 1 tsp ghee in your diet daily Make sure you drink enough water (8–10 glasses/day) Have hair wash only twice a week Do not use the blow-dryer or iron to straighten your hair Sleep for 7–8 hours Do gentle scalp massage for 5 min dail

Your condition is fully reversible with hydration + nourishment + proper routine.

Warm regards, Dr Snehal ‍‌‍‍‌‍‌‍‍‌Vidhate

HELLO,

From your symptoms- dryness, frizz, tangled hair ends, weak hair strength, and hairfall even without combing- Ayurveda recognises a pattern mainly due to

A) VATA AGGRAVATIO (major cause) Vata controls dryness, movement, and circulation. When vata becomes imbalanced -hair becomes dry, rough, frizzy -ends become tangled -hair shafts becomes weak and brittle -hairfall occurs even without touching

VATA INCREASES DUE TO -stress -irregular routines -inadequate sleep -excesss screen time -dry foods and cold drinks -skipping oiling -frequent hair washing -excess cold exposure

B) PITTA INVOLVEMENT Pitta governs metabolism and hair root strength If pitta becomes disturbed -scalp heat increase -root strength reduces -hair fall becomes chronic You mentioned you’re generally healthy, so this seems mild, but still contributes to hair fall

C) DHATU KSHAYA (nutritional deficiency of tissues) Hair is a by-product of Asthi dhatu (bone tissue) When this dhatu becomes weak due to poor nourishment or digestion, hair loses -strength -thickness -moisture -growth potential

OVERALL your hair issue is NOT just external It is due to internal dryness + weakened roots + poor nourishment + aggravated vata

TREATMENT GOALS -reduce vata and restore moisture In scalp and hair -strengthen roots and improve blood circulation to hair follicles -improve nutrition to hair tissues -detox scalp and removes blockage -enhance digestion and absorption

INTERNAL TREATMENT

1) BHRINGRAJ TABLET= 2 tabs twice daily after meals for 3 months = best herb for hair regrowth, nourishes hair follicles, promotes black, strong hair, reduces hair fall dramatically

2) AMALAKI RASAYANA= 1 tsp every morning after breakfast for 3 months = rich in vitamin c, strengthens collagen of hair, promotes shiny, healthy hair, improves immunity + slows ageing of hair

3) BRAHMI GHRITA= 1 tsp at bedtime with warm milk for 60 days =calms vata, reduces dryness, improves sleep very important for hair, nourishes brain scalp pathway

4) TRIPHALA CHURNA= 1 tsp with warm water at bedtime for 2 months =improves digestion and absorption, removes toxins, enhances nutrients availability to hair roots

5) YASHTIMADHU + FENUGREEK POWDER MIX= 1/2 tsp each in warm water morning for 2 months =improves hair’s natural protein, deep hydration effects, reduce hair thinning, mild hormonal balancing

EXTERNAL TREATMENTS

1) HAIR OILS - Ksheerbala oil + neelibringadi oil= best for dryness + hair fall warm slightly before use =restores natural scalp oil , stops tangling of ends, strengthens hair roots, improves blood supply

2) HAIR MASK -Fenugrrek + aloe vera mask= soak 2 tbsp fenugreek overnight grind and aloe vera gel =hydrates, reduces frizz, strengthen roots

-Curd + banana + honey mask =treats extreme dryness, detangles, stops breakage

3) AYURVEDIC CLEANSING Use mild shampoos -Shikakai + reetha + amla powder OR -any sulfatefree ayurvedic shampoo Avoid hot water

DIET -ghee 1-2 tsp/day -almonds, walnuts, black sesame -milk, buttermilk - coconut/coconut water -mung dal, lentils -green leafy vegetables -seasonal fruits -warm, cooked meals

AVOID -dry snacks (chips, biscuits, namkeen) -excess tea/coffee -highly spicy foods - overuse of curd at night - cold drinks, ice creams -junk food - smoking/alcohol

LIFESTYLE CHANGES

HAIR CARE HABITS -comb gently with a wooden wide tooth comb -oil hair regularly -use warm (not hot) water -protect from direct harsh sun

AVOID -daily hair washing -chemical treatments -hair strengtheners, hot blow drying -sleeping with wet hair -tight hairstyles

YOGA AND PRANAYAM

YOGA ASANAS -adho mukha svanasana -vajrasana -sarvangasana -matsyasana -uttanasana These bring blood to the scalp naturally

PRANAYAM -Anulom vilom= 10 min -bhramari= 5 min -Sheetali/sitkari= for cooling pitta -Deep diaphragmatic breathing

BENEFIT -reduces stress a big cause of hairfall -improves scalp circulation

HOME REMEDIES

A) OVERNIGHT OIL + STEAM TOWEL -apply oil, wrap in warm towel-> repairs damaged hair

B) CURRY LEAF WATER -boil 10-15 leaves in water, drink 3-4 times weekly. -> rich in hair nutrients

C) HIBISCUS FLOWER PASTE -apply to scalp-> strengthens roots, adds shine

D) ONION JUICE (if no dryness or sensitivity) -only once a week-> promotes regrowth (avoid if scalp is very dry)

Your condition is primarily due to vata imbalance causing dryness and weakness of hair roots. This is fully reversible with regular oiling, internal nourishment, gentle hair care, ayurvedic medicines, and lifestyle balancing. Ayurveda works slowly but gives deep, long lasting results without side effects

DO FOLLOW

HOPE THIS MIGHT BE HELPFUL

THANK YOU

DR. MAITRI ACHARYA

The issues with dry, frizzy hair and hair fall that you’re describing often relate to imbalances in the Vata dosha, which governs movement and dryness in the body. Addressing this requires attention to both external care and internal nourishment.

Start by choosing a gentle, nourishing hair oil, like sesame or coconut oil, as they help balance Vata. Warm the oil slightly before application. Massage your scalp gently in circular motions with warm oil, and leave it on for at least an hour before washing. Do this at least twice a week. Use a mild herbal shampoo that doesn’t strip natural oils — look for one with ingredients like amla, bhringraj, or hibiscus. Avoid hot water for hair wash as it can increase dryness; lukewarm is preferable.

Internally, focus on hydration and nourishing the dhatus (tissues), especially rakta (blood) and asthi (bones, which supports hair health). Drink plenty of warm water and herbal teas. Incorporate healthy fats in your diet such as ghee, avocado, and nuts, which provide essential lubrication and strength to hair follicles. Consider incorporating herbs like triphala to support detoxification. Amla powder can be taken daily— mix about 1 teaspoon with water — to promote hair strength.

Mind your stress levels, as stress can exacerbate your condition. Practice stress-reducing techniques like yoga or meditation regularly. They help manage the underlying Vata imbalance. Ensure a balanced sleep routine, aiming for 7-8 hours a night, as inadequate rest further disturbs Vata, worsening the problem.

Lastly, ensure your diet is rich in seasonal fruits and vegetables. These support overall health, improve nutrient absorption, and strengthen hair from within. If hairfall persists severely, consider consulting a practitioner for detailed evaluation, as other factors such as thyroid imbalances could also contribute.

Dry and frizzy hair, along with hair fall, can often be attributed to an imbalance of the Vata dosha, which governs movement and dryness in the body. When Vata is imbalanced, it can lead to lack of moisture and vitality in the hair. Let’s address these concerns with some Siddha-Ayurvedic insights.

First, oil your scalp and hair regularly, preferably with warm sesame oil or bhringraj oil, which are known for their nourishing and hair-strengthening properties. Apply the oil at least twice a week, gently massaging your scalp to stimulate blood circulation and allow the oil to penetrate. Leave it on for at least an hour before washing your hair.

Use a gentle, natural shampoo without harsh chemicals, as these can strip the hair of its natural oils, exacerbating dryness. Post-wash, consider an apple cider vinegar rinse (dilute one tablespoon of apple cider vinegar in a cup of water) to help retain moisture and smoothen hair strands.

Pay attention to your diet, which plays a vital role in hair health. Include warm, moist, and oily foods such as cooked leafy greens, almonds, sesame seeds, and avocados to help pacify Vata. Ensure adequate hydration by drinking plenty of warm water or herbal teas throughout the day.

Avoid exposing your hair to extreme weather conditions and minimize the use of hair styling tools that use heat. Additionally, practice stress-relieving techniques such as yoga or meditation, as stress can significantly impact hair health.

If your symptoms persist or worsen, it might be wise to consult with an Ayurvedic practitioner for a personalized assessment and treatment plan. They can help in identifying deeper imbalances and recommend a tailored approach to restore your hair’s health and vitality.

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. 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. 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. 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.

I am an Ayurvedic physician with around 7 yrs clinical experience, though honestly—feels like I’ve lived double that in patient hours. I studied from a govt. medical college (reputed one) where I got deep into classical Ayurvedic texts n clinical logic. I treat everything from chronic stuff like arthritis, IBS, eczema... to more sudden conditions that just pop up outta nowhere. I try to approach each case by digging into the *why*, not just the *what*. I mean—anyone can treat pain, but if you don’t catch the doshic imbalance or metabolic root, it just comes bak right? I use Nadi Pariksha a lot, but also other classical signs to map prakriti-vikruti, dhatu status n agni condition... you know the drill. I like making people *understand* their own health too. Doesn’t make sense to hand meds without giving them tools to prevent a relapse. My Panchakarma training’s been a core part of my work. I do Abhyanga, Swedana, Basti etc regularly—not just detox but also as restorative therapy. Actually seen cases where patients came in exhausted, foggy... and post-Shodhana, they're just lit up. That part never gets old. Also I always tie diet & lifestyle changes into treatment. It’s non-negotiable for me, bcs long-term balance needs daily changes, not just clinic visits. I like using classical formulations but I stay practical too—if someone's not ready for full-scale protocol, I try building smaller habits. I believe healing’s not just abt treating symptoms—it’s abt helping the body reset, then stay there. I’m constantly refining what I do, trying to blend timeless Ayurvedic theory with real-time practical needs of today’s patients. Doesn’t always go perfect lol, but most times we see real shifts. That’s what keeps me going.

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. 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.

Dr. Narendrakumar V Mishra
I am a Consulting Ayurvedic Physician practicing since 1990—feels strange saying “over three decades” sometimes, but yeah, that’s the journey. I’ve spent these years working closely with chronic conditions that don’t always have clear answers in quick fixes. My main work has been around skin disorders, hair fall, scalp issues, and long-standing lifestyle stuff like diabetes, arthritis, and stress that kinda lingers under everything else. When someone walks into my clinic, I don’t jump to treat the problem on the surface. I start by understanding their *prakriti* and *vikriti*—what they’re made of, and what’s currently out of sync. That lets me build treatment plans that actually *fit* their system—not just push a medicine and hope it works. I use a mix of classical formulations, panchakarma if needed, dietary corrections, and slow, practical lifestyle changes. No overnight miracle talk. Just steady support. Hair fall and skin issues often feel cosmetic from outside—but internally? It’s about digestion, stress, liver, hormones... I’ve seen patients try 10+ things before landing in front of me. And sometimes they just need someone to *listen* before throwing herbs at the problem. That’s something I never skip. With arthritis and diabetes too, I take the same root-cause path. I give Ayurvedic medicines, but also work with *dinacharya*, *ahar* rules, and ways to reduce the load modern life puts on the body. We discuss sleep, food timing, mental state, all of it. I’ve also worked a lot with people dealing with high stress—career burnout, anxiety patterns, overthinking—and my approach there includes Ayurvedic counseling, herbal mind support, breathing routines... depends what suits them. My foundation is built on classical *samhitas*, clinical observation, and actual time with patients—not theories alone. My goal has always been simple: to help people feel well—not just for a few weeks, but in a way that actually lasts. Healing that feels like *them*, not just protocol. That’s what I keep aiming for.

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.

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