My husband also went through detox program and showed positive results.
The staff were friendly and knowledgable.
Overall it was a great experience and will be continuing in future as well.
Visited Forย TREATMENT FOR PCOD/PCOS

I started seeing Dr. Sharmila a few years ago for PCOD-related issues. She has been really kind and patient throughout. I like that fact that she emphasized more on diet and physical wellness than just medication alone - she also made it a point to not load me with medication, which was something I really appreciated. Once I started following her diet recommendation and medication, I noticed visible improvement in my health - my periods started becoming more regular.
I also approached her when I decided to start a family. She gave me the right ayurvedic medication and again ensured I had a healthy diet and exercise in place. I have been following her words to the dot (she's definitely someone whom you can trust and follow without any worries). Now, I have conceived because of her guidance.
I would just like to thank Dr. Sharmila for her treatment and knowledge. I would highly recommend her to anyone who is dealing with PCOD and is even trying to conceive. Overall, it has been a pleasant and positive experience with her! :)

Consulted Dr. Sharmila Shankar for weight-loss program
Her detailed diet prescription alongwith recipes has been very interesting,ย comfortable & easy to follow. Fortunately most of the items are agreeable to me & relishable. For example, the millets, red rice etc. Another favourable point is that she has given a wide range of options forย us to choose on any day. This really cuts the boredom & is very convenient for theย preparer too. The time-spacing is also very comfortable. Mid morning & mid-evening sessions are welcome. So one never feels very hungry.
Last but not the least, with all these, to my surprise, within one month I lost 3 kgs!
Hence I strogly recommend Dr Sharmila for such weight-loss programs. The added advantage is she has concern for the client & is easily approachable-quick to answer your queries.
Visited Forย Detoxification
Happy with:ย Doctor friendlinessTreatment satisfaction
Iโve worked with dr sharmila for both in person and remote detox. Both times she has been attentive and empathetic.
This time I did remote detox from the US and she was easily reachable by phone. She kept track of my progress and gave me the right advice when I had a few problems along the way. I was nervous about doing a detox on my own but her instructions helped a lot. I was glad though that I had done a detox in person before because most of the time, I was familiar with how my body responded.
But her instructions are pretty thorough and has a variety of food items in the diet as well so you donโt get bored. Highly recommend Dr Sharmila and her practice!

Dr Sharmila is a gem of a person and very dedicated to what she does.She is available on WhatsApp at all times and does go out of her way to help you and be with you.
Her knowledge of Ayurveda is complete and she can help you to heal every aspect of your health.
To keep healthy I think is very important to take the Virechana Theraphy yearly.Even after the Virechana Theraphy is over your body still keeps healing.
This is the 3rd time I have taken the Virechana Theraphy.
Thank You Dr Sharmila Shankar.

We had the best diet counseling from Dr. Sharmila for management of diabetes. My wife and I both had uncontrollable diabetes which got managed through Dr. Sharmila's diet plan.

Thank you so much Dr. Sharmila. Also wanted to say that doctor is so accommodative and guided us on what exceptions can be also brought in to the diet at various frequencies.Once again thank you so much Dr. Sharmila.

A doctor's moral support and friendliness always upheld the patient's health. I became covid +ve and as I believe in ayurvedic medicine, first and foremost I consulted my ayurvedic physician, and started taking ayurvedic medicines immediately, I got fever for 2 days later I was having feeling that I have almost recovered. I was with constant touch with my doctor and updating her. On the 14 th day I got tested my CT scan and some other blood tests, all results were normal and all this was possible only due to our ancient ayurvedic medicines and the proper advice of doctor. According to me, ayurvedic medicines have worked wonders keeping my energy levels high throughout.
