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.

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.

I strongly believe in integrating traditional Ayurvedic wisdom with patient-centric care, which allows for better outcomes and long-lasting relief.

Hello You​‍​‌‍​‍‌​‍​‌‍​‍‌ are 3 years postpartum and trying to juggle a full-time job, a team, and a toddler — it makes perfect sense that you are suffering from hair loss, weight loss, and lack of energy. These are typical symptoms of postpartum Vata imbalance, especially when the recovery period has been short because of the engagement in other activities. but don’t worry, we’re here to assist you out 😊

✅AYURVEDIC UNDERSTANDING

The Postpartum (Sutika) period is characterised by the body being in a Vata-dominant state, and if the healing has not been thorough, you may still feel the following years after: Hair fall Weight loss Low energy / fatigue

Moreover, the following factors have an impact on you: –Overwork –Irregular eating –Work + toddler stress –Less sleep

All these factors exacerbate Vata, which is the underlying cause of your symptoms.

✅AYURVEDIC PLAN OF TREATMENT

✅INTERNAL MEDICATION

👉 For Hair Fall & Strength Amla capsules – 1-0-1 two times a day Narasimha Rasayanam – 1 tsp in warm water morning

👉For Weight Gain (healthy tissue building) Ashwagandha lehyam – 1 tsp at night Shatavari kalpa – 1 tsp with milk morning

All these work to improve nourishment, digestion, and build Ojas.

👉For Energy & Stress Drakshasava – 15 ml post lunch

It eases fatigue, breath, and strengthens the body again.

✅DIET PLAN

Consume Vata-pacifying foods: Warm meals Ghee daily (½–1 tsp) Rice, moong dal, oats Root vegetables (sweet potato, carrots) Nutmeg with milk at night Soaked almonds, dates, figs

❌Avoid: Omitting meals Cold drinks Raw salads Excess coffee Eating while being stressed or rushed

✅ Lifestyle Advice

To lessen Vata & increase energy: Go to bed before 10:30 pm Oil massage (Abhyanga) with sesame oil 2–3 times/week 10 minutes of breathing exercise (Bhramari or Nadi Shuddhi) Even if you have a busy day, try to keep your eating schedule consistent

Wishing you good health😊

Warm regards, Dr Snehal ​‍​‌‍​‍‌​‍​‌‍​‍‌Vidhate

hello strong mommy !!

After having a baby, your body goes through long-term hormonal changes. Even 3 years later, it’s common for women to still feel tired, lose hair, struggle with weight changes, and feel mentally exhausted especially when you’re working full time, managing a team, and taking care of a toddler. Your body has been giving more than it receives, so your nutrition stores, hormones, and energy reserves are low.

The good news is: with the right internal support, your hair can strengthen, your weight can stabilize, and your energy can come back steadily.

Ayurvedic Medicines :

Bhringraj Capsule – 1 capsule twice daily after meals Amla Capsule / Amla powder – 1 capsule twice daily OR 1 teaspoon powder at night

Ashwagandha Capsule – 1 capsule twice daily after food Draksharishta – 15 ml with equal water twice daily after meals (very good for long-term tiredness)

Shatavari Kalpa – 1 teaspoon at night with warm milk Triphala Churna – ½ teaspoon at bedtime with warm water (keeps digestion balanced)

External Hair Support

Neelibhringadi Oil 2–3 times/week on scalp before hair wash Avoid frequent shampooing—twice a week is enough

Lifestyle Support :

Add 1–2 teaspoons ghee to meals (improves hair, skin, hormones) Eat one protein-rich meal daily (dal, eggs, paneer, lentils) Soaked almonds + 2 dates in the morning Warm water only Sleep before 11 pm (even if not perfect every day)

Investigations (very important postpartum)

Please check these: Thyroid profile (TSH, T3, T4) Vitamin B12 Vitamin D CBC (to check anemia) Ferritin (iron stores)

Low thyroid, vitamin D, or iron is extremely common after pregnancy and causes exactly your symptoms.

There is nothing wrong with you you’re simply depleted from years of giving, working, and caring. With the right herbal support and corrected deficiencies, your hair will stop falling, your energy will come back, and your weight will stabilize. You don’t have to feel drained all the time; your body just needs support again.

Warm regards, Dr. Karthika

HELLO,

After C- section delivery. Your body has gone through -Blood loss and tissue weakness -sleep disturbances, stress and lack of rest -imbalance in digestion and metabolism-> causing sluggishness and weight gain -back pains and weakness-> due to aggravated vata dosha (the energy responsible for movement, bones and nervous system -Weight gain and heaviness-> due to Kapha dosha imbalance (responsible for fat storage and metabolism -Hair fall= due to vitamin D deficiency

So, in Ayurveda this looks like vata-kapha imbalance with tissue weakness

TREATMENT GOALS -Rejuvination and strengthening-> to rebuild energy, stamina and immunity -Vata balance-> to relieve weakness, joint pains and fatigue -kapha balance and fat metabolism-> to reduce weight, improve digestion and metabolism -improve digestive fire-> to remove toxins ,enhance nutrient absorption -support reproductive system and hormones-> to restore balance after pregnancy -mental and emotional balance-> reduce stress, promote calmness and good sleep

INTERNAL MEDICATIONS

1) ASHWAGANDHA LEHYAM= 1 tsp with warm milk at night for 3 months =restores strength, combats fatigue, improves sleep and immmunity

2) SHATAVARI GRANULES= 1 tsp with milk twice daily for 3 months =nourishes female system, improves lactation (if still breastfeeding), balances hormones

3) DASHMOOLA KASHAYA= 25ml + warm water twice daily before meals for 3 months =corrects vata imbalance, relieves joint pains, reduces postpartum weakness

4) TRIPHALA CHURNA= 1 tsp with warm water at night =gentle detox, prevents constipation, improves metabolism, aids fat reduction

5) MEDOHARA GUGGULU= 1 tab twice daily after meals for 3 mnoths =reduces joint pain, helps in weight management, removes toxins

EXTERNAL THERAPIES

1) OIL MASSAGE= warm sesame oil massage for 20-30 min, followed by warm water bath. 3-4 times per week =strengthens muscles and joints, improves circulation, calms vata, reduces fatigue

2) STEAM after massage= relieves stiffness, and joint pain

LIFESTYLE CHANGES -sleep early and take short naps if needed -avoid excess screen time and mental strain -take warm water instead of cold drinks -regular daily routine - same time for meals, sleep, activity -avoid heavy lifting for now

YOGA ASANAS -setu bandhasana= strengthens back and pelvis -bhujangasana= energizes, reduces stiffness -marjariasana= relieves back pain -balasana= calming, relieves fatigue -tadasana= improves posture

PRANAYAM -Anulom vilom= balances energy, calms mind -Bhramari= reduces stress, promotes relaxation -deep belly breathing= strengthens lungs, improves oxygenation

DIET -prefer warm, light, freshly prepared meals -eat at regular times, avoid overeating -use ghee in small amounts- strengthens body but doesn’t increase weight if digestion is good -drink warm water/herbal teas, avoid cold water -reduce sugar, fried foods, bakery, cheese, excess dairy -use digestive spices= ginger, cumin, coriander, black pepper, turmeric

HOME REMEDIES -Morning= warm water with lemon and honey improves metabolism -Digestive tea= boil cumin, coriander and fennel seeds in water - sip warm -Golden milk= warm milk with a pinch of turmeric and nutmeg at night for sleep and strength -soaked almonds/raisins= in the morning, for energy and iron -fenugreek seeds soaked overnight- reduces joint pain and supports metabolism

-What you are experiencing is common postpartum, especially after C- section and at your age -Ayurveda emphasizes “first nourish, then detox” -> so do not jump into heavy dieting or fasting. -With the right balance of diet, lifestyle, herbal support, yoga and rest , you can regain your strength, reduce weight naturally, and feel energised again -healing may take 3-6 months of consistent effort, but results will be steady and long lasting

DO FOLLOW

HOPE THIS MIGHT BE HELPFUL

THANK YOU

DR. MAITRI ACHARYA

Navigating through postpartum challenges such as hair fall, weight loss and energy depletion can be tough, especially when juggling full-time work and parenting. Ayurveda offers a holistic approach to help you regain balance and vitality.

Hair fall can be linked to ‘Vata’ dosha imbalance, with factors like stress and poor nourishment playing a role. Incorporate nourishing and cooling foods like porridge, almond milk, and olives into your diet. Massage your scalp with ‘Bhringraj’ oil twice a week; this ancient Ayurvedic remedy supports hair health by strengthening roots and improving blood circulation. Use a gentle, natural shampoo to retain hair’s natural oils.

Regarding weight loss and energy, it’s important not to overlook your ‘Agni’ or digestive fire. Eating large, heavy meals can overburden digestion leading to exhaustion. Opt for small, frequent meals infused with ‘Ginger’ and ‘Black Pepper’, which stimulate your metabolism. Avoid processed foods, which sap energy, focus on fresh, home-cooked meals that are easy to digest.

Adapt daily routines to support your health. Rising early, around 6 AM to leverage morning energy, engaging in calming activities such as ‘Pranayama’ or deep breathing practices, and ‘Surya Namaskar’, is beneficial. Sleep is critical; aim for 7-8 hours per night. Clean your surroundings and create a restful sleep environment by dimming lights and reducing noise.

Brahmi or ‘Bacopa monnieri’ supplements enhance mental clarity without stimulants, suitable for improving focus at work. Hydrate adequately; warm water aids digestion, promoting overall well-being.

Remember, every individual is unique, so if these general suggestions don’t seem to be effective, connect with an Ayurvedic practitioner to get personalized guidance.

Managing hair fall, weight loss, and energy levels after childbirth, especially several years postpartum, involves balancing your life and your body’s inherent constitution. In Siddha-Ayurveda, these symptoms may indicate an imbalance in the doshas, primarily Vata or Pitta doshes, and a disturbance in the body’s dhatus. Here’s what can help:

For hair fall, consider Nellikai (Indian Gooseberry) in your diet. Consuming fresh nellikai juice or powder mixed with water in the morning can fortifiy your hair. Massage your scalp with sesame oil or bhringraj oil 2-3 times a week. These not only nourish the scalp but also pacify the Vata and Pitta doshas.

When it comes to weight loss, incorporating dhal soups with vegetables like carrots and beets can help stabilize your Agni, the metabolic fire. Try small meals throughout the day instead of larger meals to maintain energy. Before eating, a pinch of trikatu (a blend of black pepper, long pepper, and ginger) with honey may aid digestion.

Energy levels can be replenished by incorporating Ashwagandha and Shatavari. A quarter teaspoon of ashwagandha powder in warm milk with a bit of jagery before bed can also boost strength and reduce stress. Also, ensure consistent sleep patterns which improve overall energy.

Keep hydrated and maintain a routine that includes light exercise, such as brisk walking or yoga, which helps with Prana flow, basically your energy circulation. If symptoms persist, consulting a healthcare provider would be wise to rule out underlying concerns that may require immediate attention. Always prioritize self-care even with a busy schedule.

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. 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. 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. 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. Sumit Tasgaonkar
I am Dr. Sumit S. Tasgaonkar — a BAMS doc who also went on to complete MS in Ayurveda surgery, along with CGO and PGDEMS. Kinda feels like I’m always learning. And maybe that’s what keeps me grounded — balancing classical Ayurvedic wisdom with real-time medical emergencies or even modern diagnostic tools. I don’t see these systems as opposites... for me, they compliment each other when you look closely enough. My work mostly revolves around chronic diseases, metabolic issues, lifestyle mess (and there’s plenty of it these days), and women’s health conditions — PCOS, hormonal imbalance, gynec stuff that needs long-term attention. I use Panchakarma, herbal meds, diet correction, sometimes just shifting someone’s daily habits does more than we expect. But it’s never one-size-fits-all. I take a lot of time getting to the root cause — dosha imbalance, agni disturbance, whatever is underneath the visible stuff. Patients dealing with arthritis, stress, skin flareups, digestion trouble — I’ve seen all of that and more. And every case teaches something new. I’m super keen on tracking progress too. Like we keep tweaking, adjusting as per prakriti and vikriti, not just protocol-for-all. And honestly, the most satisfying part? when patients tell me they feel like themselves again. I started Tasgaonkar Medical Foundation with a big dream of bringing authentic Ayurveda to more people, esp. rural areas where choices are limited. We still keep prices fair and try not to compromise on classical principles. Accessibility doesn’t mean diluting the science — that’s always been important to me. What I really want is to see more people actually understand their health. Not just pop pills or mask symptoms. I wanna give them the tools — through knowledge, through food, through breath — to live lighter and healthier. And ya, sometimes it’s messy, sometimes you doubt, sometimes you adjust everything mid-plan... but that's Ayurveda too. Listening, observing, and flowing with the body, not against it.

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.

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. Janvi Dhera
I am a doctor who completed CCH and CGO from Wadia hospital, and that training gave me exposure not just in theory but also in handling patients with very diverse needs. Over time I have treated many cases of chronic skin conditions, gut related disorders and also anorectal issues like piles, fissure and similar complaints. Each case felt different, no two patients respond the same way, and I learnt how to adapt treatment according to prakriti, diet habits, stress levels. Skin problems always catch attention first — psoriasis, eczema, acne that stays for years — but I understood that they often start from inside, from digestion or blood impurities. Gut issues like acidity, constipation, IBS are also common in my practice, and here small corrections in food timing or herbs can change a lot. Anorectal cases, especially piles and fissure, are painful both physically and mentally for patients, so I try to bring a treatment plan that is safe, non-invasive when possible, and focused on long term relief not just temporary fixes. Working with such variety of disorders also taught me patience. Some patients want fast results, but Ayurveda needs time to clean the root cause. I explain them carefully, sometimes repeating many times, that slow healing is stronger healing. Building that trust is important. My approach is always to combine herbal formulations, diet advice, and lifestyle correction with procedures when required, to ensure balance is restored and maintained. For me, Ayurveda is not a set of ready remedies but a flexible science that adapts to each person. Whether it’s skin, gut or anorectal problems, my focus stays on listening, understanding and guiding patients with clarity, honesty and steady support.

Dr. Shreya Tavhare
I am a pediatrician working in Ayurveda since the last 8+ yrs. I did my masters in Kaumarbhritya (Ayurvedic pediatrics & neonatology) from MUHS Nasik, and honestly, that whole phase of study made me look at child health in a very diff way. I mean, kids are not just smaller adults... their agni, doshas, immunity (ojas) – all work diff and change super fast. And if we catch imbalances early, we can prevent sooo much future disease. That’s what keeps me drawn to this field again n again. I’ve been treating conditions like recurrent cough, digestive issues, low weight, delayed milestones, worm infestations, even stuff like hyperactive behaviour n sleep trouble. Some kids get better quickly, others need time n small course corrections. I like to work close with parents — answer all the “why’s” they bring, explain every step if I can. Sometimes they ask the same q’s multiple times, but I get it... they’re worried. I would be too. My core focus stays around strengthening immunity, gut health, and supporting proper development — both physical n mental. I use classical herbs, lehan, swarna prashan, and yes... lot of diet tweaking, too. I don’t believe in rushing or blindly copying textbook plans. Each child reacts diff. Ayurveda teaches you that if you listen well. I also work in rural setups sometimes, and tbh, the satisfaction there is just... something else. Fewer resources, more trust, more responsibility. Keeps me grounded. This work’s not flashy, but it’s real. And if the baby smiles, eats, sleeps, and the parents start sleeping again too... I know we’re on the right path.

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.
