Dr. Pratibha Shukla
Experience: | 10 years |
Education: | Karnataka Institute of Medical Science, Rajiv Gandhi University of Health Sciences, Karnataka. |
Academic degree: | MBBS (Bachelor of Medicine, Bachelor of Surgery) |
Area of specialization: | I specialize in diabetes management and sustainable weight loss through a holistic, functional medicine approach. By identifying root causes such as insulin resistance, inflammation, and hormonal imbalances, I create personalized care plans that go beyond symptom control. My focus is on long-term healing through nutrition, lifestyle modifications, gut health, and metabolic support—empowering patients to reverse chronic conditions and achieve lasting wellness naturally. |
Achievements: | I have served in various PSU and government hospitals, where I gained valuable experience managing diverse patient populations and complex cases. This journey shaped my commitment to accessible, patient-focused care. I later established my private practice to extend that care to a wider community, with the goal of offering more personalized, holistic treatment while continuing to serve with the same dedication I brought to the public healthcare system. |
I am a functional medicine practitioner with a focus on treating chronic conditions by addressing their root causes rather than just managing symptoms. My practice centers around helping individuals achieve long-term wellness through a holistic and integrative approach. I work extensively with patients dealing with diabetes, hypertension, high cholesterol, fatty liver, metabolic disorders, leaky gut, and immunity-related issues. My treatment philosophy is grounded in understanding how lifestyle, nutrition, environment, and genetics influence chronic disease. I take time to conduct in-depth assessments, including medical history, advanced diagnostics, and lab work, to uncover the underlying imbalances that contribute to persistent health problems. From there, I design personalized treatment plans that include dietary modifications, targeted supplementation, detoxification protocols, stress management, and sustainable lifestyle changes. What sets functional medicine apart—and what I deeply believe in—is the emphasis on patient empowerment and collaboration. I work closely with my patients to educate them about their conditions, help them understand the connections between their symptoms and overall health, and guide them toward lasting solutions that support both prevention and healing. Chronic illnesses are often complex and multifactorial, but with the right approach, they can be effectively managed—and in many cases, reversed. I’m committed to helping my patients regain control over their health by identifying and addressing the root causes of disease, rather than relying solely on medications to mask symptoms. Whether you're facing metabolic imbalances, gut health challenges, or autoimmune concerns, my goal is to provide you with the tools, insights, and support needed to restore balance and thrive.
