The other day, I had an experience that left me deeply reflective and grateful.
A Call from Bombay: An Unusual Beginning
It started with a call from a worried mother in Bombay, seeking help for her daughter who was struggling with irregular periods. From the very first moment, her anxiety was palpable. But for me, her call was surprising—why would someone from so far away want to consult with me when there are so many reputed doctors in her own city?
In today’s world, where scams and pranks seem to pop up in the most unexpected ways, I couldn’t help but feel hesitant. I initially suggested that she consult one of the excellent homeopaths in Bombay. Yet, she persisted. Her calls felt genuine but unusual, and eventually, I decided to give her an appointment—but only on a prepaid basis, as a precaution.
Building Trust Across Cities
Fast forward a couple of weeks and three consultations later, the situation feels vastly different. The initial unease on both sides has melted away. For her, the calmness and trust she found in our interactions brought immense relief. For me, it was the affirmation that I was on the right path.
When we spoke during her daughter’s follow-up, she shared something that resonated deeply with me. She said that despite browsing through countless other doctors online, something about the way I wrote on my website and social media made her feel connected. She couldn’t quite articulate what it was, but my words and the way I explained things during our consultation gave her the sense of being heard and cared for.
The Power of Connection in Healing
This experience was a reminder of the power of connection, even in a virtual world. In my moments of doubt, wondering if my efforts to write, educate, and empathize are making a difference, this mother’s trust was the answer I needed.
For those of you reading this, I want to say this: whether you are a patient, a caregiver, or simply someone browsing my words, know that every effort I make is with you in mind. My goal has always been to listen, understand, and guide you toward better health—not just physically but mentally too.
To this mother and her daughter: thank you for trusting me with your care. It’s stories like yours that keep me grounded and inspired.
And to anyone who has doubts—about themselves, their path, or even the doctors they consult—sometimes the right connection is all it takes to put you at ease. I believe in truly understanding each patient’s concerns. Learn more about my approach to homeopathy here.
Here’s to more trust, more healing, and more moments that remind us why we do what we do.
