in india a bams doctor even with md ayurveda surgery is not legally permitted to independently perform major allopathic surgeries

however the situation is clarified as follows

a bams doctor with md ayurveda shalya tantra can assist observe and gain practical exposure in surgeries only under supervision of a qualified mbbs ms or md allopathic surgeon

they cannot independently operate perform major surgeries sign consent or be the primary surgeon in allopathic surgical procedures

even if they have trained for years under senior mbbs or md surgeons the law does not allow independent practice of major allopathic surgery

what they can legally do perform ayurvedic surgical procedures described under ayurveda assist in surgeries in hospitals as a surgical assistant where permitted manage pre and post operative care under supervision work in ayurvedic hospitals where surgical procedures are ayurvedic in nature

what they cannot legally do perform major allopathic surgeries independently represent themselves as allopathic surgeons open a surgical practice for allopathic procedures

some states previously allowed limited practice but court rulings and medical council regulations have restricted this strongly

so the final answer is no a bams md surgery doctor cannot legally do major allopathic surgeries independently even after long practical exposure under mbbs md surgeons
