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.

I understand your concern fully because weight loss along with acidity digestion trouble gall bladder polyp hair thinning and dandruff does not happen randomly and all these problems are deeply connected inside the body In ayurveda this condition develops when agni becomes irregular pitta becomes sharp yet weak and vata starts drying and depleting the tissues so whatever food you eat does not convert into proper nourishment strength or weight Because digestion is disturbed bile secretion from liver and gall bladder also becomes improper which leads to acidity gas bloating poor appetite fear of eating and continuous weight loss When rasa dhatu is weak the body cannot nourish mamsa meda or asthi dhatu and this reflects as weight loss hair thinning dandruff weakness low immunity and mental fatigue

The first and most important thing you must understand is that weight gain should not be forced The root treatment is correcting digestion calming pitta regulating bile flow and then nourishing the body slowly and safely This process takes time but once digestion is corrected the body naturally starts gaining healthy weight

For acidity and digestion you can take avipattikar churna half teaspoon two times daily after food with lukewarm water You can take aloe vera juice twenty ml empty stomach early morning At night you can take triphala churna half teaspoon with warm water to support bowel movement detoxification and absorption

For gall bladder polyp and liver bile regulation you can take punarnava mandur two tablets two times daily after food You can take bhumyamalaki churna half teaspoon two times daily after meals These medicines help in improving bile flow reducing pitta stagnation supporting liver function and improving digestion which is essential for weight gain

Once acidity starts settling and appetite improves you should begin rasayana and nourishment therapy Ashwagandha churna half teaspoon two times daily with warm milk after meals Shatavari churna half teaspoon two times daily with milk Drakshasava fifteen ml two times daily after meals with equal quantity of water These medicines help in building healthy weight improving muscle strength calming nerves supporting hormones and increasing stamina without aggravating acidity

For hair thinning dandruff and overall tissue nourishment you should take amalaki rasayana one teaspoon once daily in the morning with warm water or milk You should take bringaraja asava fifteen ml two times daily after meals with equal water These medicines purify blood balance pitta nourish hair roots improve scalp health and also support digestion and liver function

External care is supportive Apply coconut oil mixed with few drops of neem oil on scalp two times a week Wash hair with mild herbal shampoo Avoid frequent hair wash and avoid hot water on head

Diet correction is the backbone of healing Eat small meals at regular intervals every three hours Include soft cooked rice moong dal ghee vegetable soups boiled vegetables ripe banana soaked almonds soaked raisins milk and buttermilk Use cow ghee daily as it heals acidity improves digestion and nourishes tissues Drink warm water throughout the day

Strictly avoid spicy fried sour fermented packaged junk food bakery items cold drinks coffee tea excess sugar raw salads vinegar tomato sauces and very late night meals Avoid lying down immediately after eating Avoid long fasting and irregular eating

Lifestyle discipline is equally important Sleep before eleven pm Wake up early Avoid excessive screen time stress anger and overthinking because mental stress directly worsens digestion and acidity Do light walking yoga and gentle pranayama Avoid heavy workouts until digestion becomes stable

In such cases weight gain usually begins after six to eight weeks once digestion stabilizes Hair fall and dandruff reduce earlier when pitta is balanced Gall bladder polyp usually remains benign and manageable when bile flow digestion and lifestyle are corrected

Be patient and consistent because your body needs healing not force feeding If you want i can guide you with a complete daily routine from morning to night including food timings based on your digestion and body condition

Dr. Soukhya Hiremath
I am Dr Soukhya, completed my BAMS degree under Rajiv Gandhi University of Health Science, and sometimes I still can’t believe how fast that year of full-time practice went by… feels like I m still figuring small things while already handling so many female disorders and skin related conditions every day. I work mostly with Ayurveda treatments for gynic cases, hormonal ups-and-downs, chronic skin troubles and a few other things that always need more gentle hands than people expect. I am practicing for a year now, but honestly the learning kind of never stop, each patient shows something new… sometimes I even pause thinking “wait, did I explain that right” and then go again with more clarity. My focus stays on understanding the root-cause, balancing doshas properly, and giving care that feel practical not over complicated. I treated many gynic issues, from irregular cycles to pregnency related discomforts, and a lot of cosmetology concerns too (acne, pigmentation and stuff that people get worried about really quickly!). I am also running offline yoga classes for pregnant women and others too… it started simple but grew into this small supportive space where I see how much differnce breathing and mindful movement makes. Sometimes the schedule gets messy, or I m not sure if the batch timing was perfect, but the sessions still turn meaningful. Ayurveda, yoga, routine corrections — all these tie together in my approach. I try to keep things straighforward, even if my notes get a bit scattered here and there or a comma miss somewhere, but the intention stays steady: help people feel better with methods that respect body’s natural healing.

I CAN UNDERSTAND YOUR WORRY BECAUSE WHEN WEIGHT IS FALLING INSTEAD OF INCREASING ALONG WITH GALL BLADDER POLYP ACIDITY HAIR THINNING DANDRUFF AND DIGESTION PROBLEM IT CLEARLY SHOWS THAT YOUR AGNI IS WEAK AND PITTA IS AGGRAVATED DUE TO WHICH FOOD IS NOT GETTING DIGESTED PROPERLY AND DHATUS ARE NOT GETTING NOURISHED GALL BLADDER POLYP INDICATES DISTURBANCE IN PITTA AND MEDA DHATU AND WHEN BILE FLOW IS NOT BALANCED FAT DIGESTION BECOMES POOR SO EVEN IF YOU EAT WELL BODY STARTS LOSING WEIGHT ACIDITY BURNS THE GUT LINING AND ABSORPTION REDUCES THAT IS WHY HAIR BECOMES THIN AND DANDRUFF INCREASES

FIRST THING IS WE DO NOT TRY TO FORCE WEIGHT GAIN UNTIL DIGESTION AND ACIDITY ARE CONTROLLED OTHERWISE IT WILL WORSEN POLYP AND GUT IRRITATION

I WOULD ADVISE YOU TO DO ULTRASOUND ABDOMEN EVERY SIX MONTHS TO MONITOR SIZE OF GALL BLADDER POLYP LIVER FUNCTION TEST AMYLASE LIPASE COMPLETE BLOOD COUNT SERUM B12 VITAMIN D AND STOOL ROUTINE TO CHECK MALABSORPTION AND INFLAMMATION THESE INVESTIGATIONS HELP US CONFIRM WHY WEIGHT IS DROPPING AND WHY HAIR IS AFFECTED

AYURVEDIC MEDICINES WHICH ARE SAFE FOR GALL BLADDER AND ACIDITY AVIPATTIKAR CHURNA HALF TEASPOON AT NIGHT WITH LUKEWARM WATER GUDUCHI SATVA 250 MG TWICE DAILY AFTER FOOD KAMDUDHA RAS MUKTA YUKTA ONE TAB TWICE DAILY AFTER FOOD AMALAKI RASAYAN ONE TEASPOON MORNING EMPTY STOMACH WITH WATER PIPPALI CHURNA A PINCH ONLY MIXED WITH GHEE AFTER LUNCH TO IMPROVE AGNI WITHOUT HEAT

FOR WEIGHT GAIN ONLY AFTER ACIDITY STARTS SETTLING ASHWAGANDHA CHURNA HALF TEASPOON WITH WARM MILK AT NIGHT SHATAVARI CHURNA HALF TEASPOON MORNING WITH MILK OR WARM WATER DRY GINGER SHOULD BE AVOIDED IN EXCESS

FOR HAIR THINNING AND DANDRUFF BHRINGRAJ CHURNA HALF TEASPOON AT NIGHT WITH WATER TRIPHALA CHURNA HALF TEASPOON AT NIGHT TWICE A WEEK ONLY AND APPLY NEELIBHRINGADI TAILA ON SCALP TWICE A WEEK

DIET IS VERY IMPORTANT TAKE SOFT WARM FRESHLY COOKED FOOD RICE MOONG DAL VEGETABLES LIKE BOTTLE GOURD RIDGE GOURD PUMPKIN AVOID FRIED SPICY BAKERY SOUR FOOD COLD DRINKS TEA COFFEE AND LATE NIGHT EATING EAT SMALL MEALS EVERY THREE HOURS

ONCE DIGESTION IMPROVES ACIDITY REDUCES AND STOOL BECOMES NORMAL YOUR WEIGHT WILL START INCREASING NATURALLY AND HAIR WILL ALSO IMPROVE DO NOT WORRY THIS CONDITION IS REVERSIBLE WITH CORRECT AYURVEDIC APPROACH AND PATIENCE

My all tests are normal. But I saw their are other ways to like potli treatment then should I go for a nadi checkup or what tell me what to take for digestion and better absorption of foods? Also many ways I saw easy one like gourds we can balance doshas and what about dhatus? What to take?

I CAN UNDERSTAND YOUR CONFUSION BECAUSE WHEN REPORTS ARE NORMAL BUT BODY IS NOT RESPONDING IT MEANS FUNCTIONAL IMBALANCE WHICH MODERN TESTS CANNOT ALWAYS CATCH IN AYURVEDA THIS IS CALLED AGNI DUSHTI AND DHATU POSHAN PROBLEM NOT A STRUCTURAL DISEASE NADI PARIKSHA CAN DEFINITELY HELP BECAUSE IT SHOWS CURRENT DOSHA STATUS AGNI STRENGTH AND DHATU LEVEL SO IF YOU HAVE ACCESS TO A GENUINE EXPERIENCED VAIDYA YOU CAN DO NADI CHECKUP IT IS USEFUL BUT MORE IMPORTANT THAN PROCEDURES IS CORRECT INTERNAL MEDICINE AND DIET POTLI TREATMENT IS NOT FIRST LINE FOR YOU BECAUSE WHEN ACIDITY AND WEAK DIGESTION IS PRESENT EXTERNAL HEAT CAN AGGRAVATE PITTA AND MAY WORSEN WEIGHT LOSS POTLI IS ONLY USED LATER WHEN AGNI IS STABLE AND BODY IS READY

FOR DIGESTION AND ABSORPTION WE NEED TO CORRECT JATHARAGNI AND DHATVAGNI TOGETHER NOT BY STRONG SPICES BUT BY DEEPAN PACHAN THAT IS SOFT AND COOLING TAKE MUSTA CHURNA ONE FOURTH TEASPOON TWICE DAILY BEFORE FOOD WITH LUKEWARM WATER TAKRA SIDDHA PIPPALI ONE PINCH ONCE DAILY AFTER LUNCH MIXED WITH A FEW DROPS OF GHEE THIS HELPS ABSORPTION WITHOUT HEAT GUDUCHI SATVA 250 MG TWICE DAILY AFTER FOOD TO STRENGTHEN AGNI AND DHATUS BILVA CHURNA ONE FOURTH TEASPOON ONCE DAILY AFTER DINNER IF STOOL IS LOOSE IF STOOL IS HARD THEN AVOID IT

FOR DHATU NOURISHMENT YOU SHOULD NOT START HEAVY RASAYANA DIRECTLY FIRST START WITH AMALAKI RASAYAN ONE TEASPOON MORNING EMPTY STOMACH THEN AFTER TWO TO THREE WEEKS ADD SHATAVARI CHURNA HALF TEASPOON MORNING WITH WARM MILK OR WATER AND ASHWAGANDHA CHURNA HALF TEASPOON AT NIGHT ONLY IF ACIDITY IS CONTROLLED THIS SEQUENCE IS IMPORTANT OTHERWISE WEIGHT WILL NOT INCREASE

GOURDS ARE VERY GOOD FOR YOU BOTTLE GOURD RIDGE GOURD PUMPKIN AND ASH GOURD COOKED WITH LITTLE GHEE THEY BALANCE PITTA AND SUPPORT RASA AND MEDA DHATU BUT THEY ALONE CANNOT BUILD DHATUS THEY ONLY PREPARE THE SYSTEM DHATUS ARE BUILT WHEN AGNI IS STABLE AND PROTEIN AND FAT ARE DIGESTED PROPERLY SO ADD MOONG DAL SOUP RICE WITH GHEE HOMEMADE PANEER IF TOLERATED AND COCONUT WATER OCCASIONALLY

FOR GALL BLADDER AND BILE FLOW TAKE BHUMYAMALAKI CHURNA HALF TEASPOON TWICE DAILY AFTER FOOD AND AVIPATTIKAR CHURNA HALF TEASPOON AT NIGHT THIS WILL SUPPORT POLYP MANAGEMENT AND FAT DIGESTION

FOR HAIR AND DANDRUFF INTERNAL CORRECTION IS MAIN STILL TAKE BHRINGRAJ GHAN VATI ONE TAB TWICE DAILY AFTER FOOD AND APPLY NEELIBHRINGADI TAILA TWICE WEEKLY

REMEMBER WEIGHT GAIN IS A RESULT NOT A TARGET FIRST DIGESTION THEN ABSORPTION THEN DHATU NOURISHMENT THEN WEIGHT AND HAIR IMPROVEMENT THIS IS WHY EASY SHORTCUT METHODS DO NOT WORK IN YOUR CASE BE PATIENT AND CONSISTENT AND YOUR BODY WILL START RESPONDING IN A FEW WEEKS

Hello Thanks for reaching out. I know you’re dealing with a bunch of issues right now—weight loss when you’re trying to gain, a gallbladder polyp, acidity, thinning hair, dandruff, and weak digestion. In Ayurveda, these don’t stand alone. They’re all tangled up with one core problem.

AYURVEDIC UNDERSTANDING

What’s really happening is a mix of Agnimandya (weak digestion) and a Pitta-Vata imbalance. Here’s how it connects:

- Low digestive fire (Mandagni) means your body can’t absorb food properly, so you lose weight.

- Pitta goes out of whack, and you get acidity, hair fall, and dandruff.

- When Rasa and Rakta dhatus run low, hair thins out, you feel weak, and there’s dryness.

- Imbalance in bile and liver function (Yakrit-Pittashaya Dushti) leads to gallbladder polyps.

If you want to put it in modern terms, think malabsorption, chronic acidity, bile issues, and nutritional deficiencies.

And here’s the bottom line: Until your digestion gets stronger, no weight gain supplement or medicine is going to work.

AYURVEDIC PLAN OF TREATMENT

The main goal? Heal your digestion, balance Pitta, nourish your tissues, and then help you gain weight in a healthy way.

INTERNAL MEDICATION

Step 1: Fix your digestion first—this matters most.

- Avipattikar Churna: Take ½ tsp twice a day before meals with warm water. It cools acidity, settles gas, and balances bile.

- Kutajghan Vati: 2 tablets twice a day after meals. This helps heal your gut lining and boosts absorption.

- Arogyavardhini Vati: 1 tablet twice a day after meals. It supports your liver, gallbladder, and overall metabolism.

Step 2: Start nourishing after about 10–14 days.

- Drakshavaleha: 1 tsp twice daily after meals. It’s a gentle weight gain tonic, perfect when digestion is weak.

- Chyawanprash (go for low sugar): 1 tsp in the morning with warm milk. Nourishes tissues, supports immunity, and helps hair.

EXTERNAL CARE

Mix Bhringraj Taila with Neelibringadi Taila (half and half). Massage into your scalp twice a week, leave it on for an hour, then wash it off. This combo helps with thinning hair, dandruff, scalp dryness, and Pitta imbalance.

DIET PLAN -This Makes or Breaks It

AVOID

- Tea and coffee - Fried or spicy foods - Bakery products - Cold drinks - Curd at night

All of these ramp up acidity and mess with your gallbladder.

INCLUDE

- Rice, wheat, moong dal - Ghee (just 1 tsp a day) - Warm milk - Steamed veggies - Soaked almonds (5 a day) - Dates and raisins

LIFESTYLE TIPS

- Eat every 3–4 hours—small, regular meals - Never skip breakfast - Aim to sleep before 11 pm - Cut down on screens late at night - Try gentle yoga—Vajrasana after meals is great

A Quick Word About Gallbladder Polyps

Most polyps are made of cholesterol and linked to bile problems. They can actually shrink or go away if you tackle the root cause early. Ayurveda aims to treat the root, not just the symptom. Surgery is only needed if the polyp is bigger than 10 mm.

Why the Weight Loss?

Your body’s just not turning food into strong, healthy tissues (the “dhatus” in Ayurveda). Gaining weight isn’t about chugging protein shakes or hitting the gym hard. It’s about fixing your digestive fire, healing your liver and bile, and then nourishing your body the right way.

Don’t start Ashwagandha, mass gainer powders, or heavy milkshakes until your acidity is totally under control. Jumping the gun will just make your bile problems and hair loss worse.

You’re dealing with Pitta-dominant malnutrition, not just simple weakness. Focus first on cooling and healing your digestion. Only then should you start nourishing to gain weight. If you skip that step, you’ll just keep running into the same wall.

Warm Regards Dr. Snehal Vidhate

Thank you that’s what I was looking for 😄 can you tell me the diet plan also the timing when to eat and what to balance tridoshas. And what if I take ur prescribed treatment and after that I felt heavy acidity etc then? Also some tables u said take 2 tablets twice a day can we take only 1 twice a day?

DAILY DIET & TIMING (TRIDOSHA BALANCING)

SIMPLE RULE keep your food warm, light, nourishing, and eat at regular times. This helps balance Vata (which increases with age), Pitta (think acidity), and Kapha (linked to cholesterol).

IDEAL DAILY SCHEDULE

Morning (6:30–7:30 am) Start with a glass of warm water.

Breakfast (8–9 am) - Vegetable poha - Oats with milk - Moong dal chilla Add one fruit—papaya, apple, or pear works well. Skip bread, biscuits, cold milk, and tea.

Mid-morning (11 am) Go for five soaked almonds or some coconut water.

Lunch (1–2 pm) – MAIN MEAL - Rice or roti - Moong dal or toor dal - Cooked vegetables - A teaspoon of ghee Digestion is at its peak now, so make it count.

Evening (5–6 pm) Have some herbal tea or warm water. Snack on roasted chana or makhana. Try to avoid coffee and biscuits at this time.

Dinner (7–8 pm) Keep it light: - Vegetable soup - Khichdi - Steamed veggies with roti No heavy food at night—your body doesn’t want to deal with it.

Bedtime (10 pm) Warm milk is great here. Try to get to bed before 11 pm—it’s really important for your hormones and blood pressure.

TRIDOSHA BALANCING TIPS

For VATA (weakness, dryness) Add more ghee, warm milk, cooked foods, and try oil massage. Avoid cold foods, fasting, and dry snacks.

For PITTA (acidity) Eat more rice, ghee, coconut, and pomegranate. Stay away from spicy foods, tea, coffee, and fried stuff.

For KAPHA (cholesterol) Walk daily, eat more moong dal and vegetables. Cut back on sugar, cheese, bakery items, and don’t eat late dinners.

WHAT IF YOU FEEL ACIDITY OR HEAVINESS WITH MEDICINES? If you notice acidity, gas, heaviness, or burning, it means your digestion (Agni) needs support. Here’s what helps: Add half a teaspoon of Avipattikar Churna before lunch and dinner. This protects your stomach, prevents side effects, and helps your body absorb medicine better.

CAN YOU START WITH A LOWER DOSE? (YES!)

Absolutely. You don’t need to jump in with the full dose right away. Play it safe: Start with half the dose for 7 to 10 days. For example, if the advice is two tablets twice daily, just take one tablet twice daily at first. Once your body adjusts, you can increase if you need to.

keep it simple: - Eat warm food - Eat on time - Eat less at night - Use ghee - Walk every day - Sleep early

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.

Hi, All Your complaints are connected, not separate problems.

Weak Digestion, Poor appetite, acidity, bloating Food is not digested or absorbed properly Which Leads to weight loss instead of gain

Gall bladder polyp indicates Pitta accumulation & stagnation of bile Acidity, dandruff, scalp irritation, hair thinning are Pitta-dominant signs

Due to poor digestion, nutrients do not reach to target area causing hair thinning & weight loss Body becomes weak despite eating

I’ll suggest some ayurvedic medicine and diet and lifestyle modification for you.

1) Avipattikar Churna – ½ tsp twice a day after food with warm water

2) bhunimbadi kadha - 15 ml twice a day after food with water.

3) Arogyavardhini vati – 1 tablet twice a day after food

4) Ashwagandha + 5) Shatavari Churna (1 tsp with warm milk at night)

- Follow diet plan Soft cooked rice, moong dal Cow’s ghee Boiled vegetables - pumpkin, bottle gourd, carrot Ripe banana, apple, pomegranate Warm milk (night only) Soaked almonds (5–6)

- Avoid Completely Fried, spicy, oily food Tea, coffee, alcohol Bakery, junk food Late-night eating Very sour, fermented foods

- Eat at fixed timings Sleep by 10–10:30 pm No lying down immediately after meals Gentle walk after dinner.

Dr. Akshay Negi
I am currently pursuing my MD in Panchakarma, and by now I carry 3 yrs of steady clinical experience. Panchakarma for me is not just detox or some fancy retreat thing — it’s the core of how Ayurveda actually works to reset the system. During my journey I’ve handled patients with arthritis flares, chronic back pain, migraine, digestive troubles, hormonal imbalance, even skin and stress-related disorders... and in almost every case Panchakarma gave space for deeper healing than medicines alone. Working hands-on with procedures like Vamana, Virechana, Basti, Nasya, and Raktamokshana gave me a lot of practical insight. It's not just about performing the therapy, but understanding timing, patient strength, diet before and after, and how their mind-body reacts to cleansing. Some respond quick, others struggle with initial discomfort, and that’s where real patient support matters. I learnt to watch closely, adjust small details, and guide them through the whole process safely. My approach is always patient-centric. I don’t believe in pushing the same package to everyone. I first assess prakriti, agni, mental state, lifestyle, then decide what works best. Sometimes full Panchakarma isn’t even needed — simple modifications, herbs, or limited therapy sessions can bring results. And when full shodhana is required, I plan it in detail with proper purvakarma & aftercare, cause that’s what makes outcomes sustainable. The last few years made me more confident not just in procedures but in the philosophy behind them. Panchakarma isn’t a quick fix — it demands patience, discipline, trust. But when done right, it gives relief that lasts, and that’s why I keep refining how I practice it.

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. Maitri Bhavesh Kumar Acharya
I am Dr. Maitri, currently in my 2nd year of MD in Dravyaguna, and yeah, I run my own Ayurvedic clinic in Ranoli where I’ve been seeing patients for 2 years now. Honestly, what pulled me into this path deeper is how powerful herbs really are—when used right. Not just randomly mixing churnas but actually understanding their rasa, virya, vipaka etc. That’s kinda my zone, where textbook knowledge meets day-to-day case handling. My practice revolves around helping people with PCOD, acne, dandruff, back pain, stiffness in knees or joints that never seem to go away. And I don’t jump to giving a long list of medicines straight away—first I spend time figuring out their prakriti, their habits, food cycle, what triggers what… basically all the small stuff that gets missed. Then comes the plan—herbs (single or compound), some diet reshuffling, and always some lifestyle nudges. Sometimes they’re tiny, like sleep timing. Sometimes big like proper seasonal detox. Being into Dravyaguna helps me get into the depth of herbs more confidently. I don’t just look at the symptom—I think okay what guna will counter this? Should the drug be snigdha, ushna, tikta? Is there a reverse vipaka that’ll hurt the agni? I ask these questions before writing any combo. That’s made a huge diff in outcomes. Like I had this case of chronic urticaria that would flare up every week, and just tweaking the herbs based on sheetala vs ushna nature... helped calm the system in 3 weeks flat. Not magic, just logic. I also work with women who are struggling with hormonal swings, mood, delayed periods or even unexplained breakouts. When hormones go haywire, the skin shows, digestion slows, and mind gets foggy too. I keep my approach full-circle—cleansing, balancing, rejuvenating. No quick fixes, I tell them early on. What I’m hoping to do more of now is make Ayurveda feel practical. Not overwhelming. Just simple tools—ahara, vihara, aushadha—used consistently, with some trust in the body’s own healing. I’m still learning, still refining, but honestly, seeing people feel in control of their health again—that’s what keeps me rooted to this.

Dr. 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. 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. Ankit Rathore
I am someone who really got to feel the weight of actual practice during my one year internship at the civil hospital. It wasn’t just routine—it was a daily crash course in reality, where textbook cases didn’t always match what walked through the door. I spent long hours rotating through departments—OPD, emergency, minor OT, even labor rooms—and yeah, each one taught me something I couldn’t’ve learned sitting in lectures. There were days I saw over 40–50 patients in OPD, most with multilayered complaints—gastritis mixed with anxiety, or skin rashes that flared worse in stressy situations. I had to listen sharp, note quick, and still not miss anything. Like, once I forgot to double-check a sugar reading and the case shifted entirely, and that messed with me a bit. You learn from these things tho. I did. Civil hospital life means working with all types of ppl—those with chronic issues like joint pain, those rushing in with acute fevers, and sometimes those who just need someone to explain their condition calmly. I handled case sheets, helped in rounds, observed surgeries (some minor, some I couldn’t stop thinking about later tbh), managed herbal prescriptions under supervision, and did a lotta counseling, which is underrated honestly. One thing that stood out to me was how often symptoms were being treated but not the pattern behind them. Like repeat migraines? Usually it was more about sleep or stress than just pain. That shifted how I approached things. Made me dig deeper, not just ask "what hurts" but also "since when and what else changed?" The internship taught me to act quick but also pause when needed, speak confidently but also shut up and learn when I didn’t know something—trust me, those moments happened too. It gave me the ground reality of how Ayurvedic support can sit side-by-side with hospital protocols. Not everything went smooth—forgot a file once, mixed two doses (minor issue but still), and yeah, sometimes I was too cautious when I shoud've acted faster. But that year shaped me... more than anything else. And I carry all that messiness and learning into my practice now, everyday.

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. Ayush Bansal
I am an Ayurveda doctor with about 1 yr of hands on clinical practice, still learning everyday from patients and the science itself. My journey started as a VOPD doctor with Hiims Hospital under Jeena Sikho Lifecare Ltd. For 6 months I was into virtual consultations, understanding cases online, preparing treatment protocols and doing follow ups to track progress. That phase trained me well in quick patient assesment and also in explaining Ayurveda in a way that fit with modern expectations. I dealt with many chronic and acute cases during that time.. things like gastric issues, joint pain, stress related complaints, skin problems. The remote setting forced me to sharpen my diagnostic skill and rely more on careful history taking, prakriti analysis, and lifestyle understanding. After that, I moved to a Resident Doctor role at Chauhan Ayurved and Panchkarma Hospital, Udaipur. This was very different.. more practical, hands on, and really grounded me in classical Panchakarma. I was actively part of planning and performing therapies like Vamana, Virechana, Basti, Abhyanga, Shirodhara, and other detox and rejuvenation procedures. Many patients came with long standing spine issues, metabolic disorders, skin complaints, or hormonal imbalance and I got to see how tailored Panchakarma protocols and lifestyle advice together can bring changes that medicines alone couldn’t. Working closely with senior consultants gave me better clarity on safety, step by step planning and how to balance classical texts with practical hospital settings. Now, whether in OPD consultations or Panchkarma wards, I try to meet patients with empathy and patience. I focus on root cause correction, using herbs, diet, daily routine guidance, and therapy whenever needed. My belief is that Ayurveda should be accessible and authentic, not complicated or intimidating. My aim is simple—help people move towards long term wellness, not just temporary relief. I see health as balance of body, mind and routine.. and I want my practice to guide patients gently into that space.

Dr. Mandeep Sharma
I am a doctor with about 22 years of experience working closely with chronic patients, and also with special children, and that long time in practice has shaped how I see medicine day to day. My work is focused on long-term care, chronic disease management, and supporting children with special needs, which is demanding and sometimes a bit heavy, but also very grounding. Over the years I have learned that treating chronic conditions is rarely straight line progress, and patients dont always fit into neat plans or textbook descriptions. I am deeply involved in ongoing care rather than quick fixes, following patients over time and adjusting treatment as their needs change, sometimes slowly, sometimes all at once. Working with special children has required patience, flexibility, and attention to small details that others might miss, and honestly I am still learning from them even after two decades. My approach is practical and calm, with a strong focus on continuity of care, symptom control, and improving daily function, not just lab numbers or reports. I am careful to listen, even when the story comes out messy or incomplete, because chronic illness rarely shows up clearly on first try. Some days the work feels straightforward, other days less clear, but I stay committed to providing consistent medical support that families can rely on. I try to balance clinical judgement with human understanding, though I get it wrong sometimes, and then I adjust. After 22 years in this field, I still believe steady care, clear communication, and realistic planning matter more then promises that sound good!!

Dr. Basavarajeshwari B
I am a holistic Ayurvedic physician focused on healing that connects the body, mind, and day to day life in a practical way. My academic journey started at DGMAMC, where I completed my graduation in Ayurveda, followed by a Master’s degree in Roganidana from SDM College of Ayurveda and Hospital, Hassan, which shaped how I look at disease from the root level rather than just symptoms. During my training, I received extensive clinical exposure in both OPD and IPD settings, learning directly through patient care at these institutions. Later, I worked for over 2 years at Shri Jagadguru Gavisiddeswara Ayurvedic Medical College, Koppal, managing a wide range of clinical cases. Those years taught me patience, clinical clarity, and also how unpredictable real healing can be sometimes. My practice is based on personalized, evidence-based Ayurvedic medicine, with strong focus on diagnosis, preventive healthcare, and long-term sustainable healing. I spend time understanding prakriti, lifestyle patterns, and underlying imbalances, even when it takes longer than expected or feels repetitive. Ayurveda, for me, works best when care is individualised and realistic, not rushed. I believe true healing happens through the alchemy of mind and body, though I am still learning how deeply connected they really are. I try to offer care that is attentive, compassionate and accessible, and I stay available to my patients on call when they need guidance, even outside regular hours. Some days are intense, some quieter, but the commitment stays the same—supporting health in a way that feels grounded, honest, and human..

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. 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.
