I’m an MBBS graduate with a deep commitment to providing meaningful, patient-first care. My clinical training has given me a solid understanding of how to assess and manage a wide variety of health conditions—both common and complex. But beyond just clinical skills, I’ve always believed that the heart of medicine lies in listening. That’s what I try to bring into every consultation: not just treatment, but genuine attention to the person in front of me. I have gained experience across general medicine, paediatrics, emergency care and preventive health. I have treated patients of different age groups and backgrounds, which has helped shaped a more flexible, to diagnosis and management. Whether someone comes with a new symptom or a routine check-up, I aim to deliver evidence-based treatment, explained clearly and tailored to the lifestyle. I’m especially focused on making care accessible and comfortable. Too often, patients feel rushed or confused when they leave a doctor’s office—I try to do the opposite. Taking time to explain options, risks, or even just what’s going on in simple terms is something I take seriously. Communication, I think, is just as important as any prescription. I actively stay updated with current medical guidelines and research, and I’ve been exploring areas of holistic care and preventive medicine too. The more we can do to catch problems early—or better yet, avoid them—the better the outcome for everyone. I’ve seen how small lifestyle changes, when supported properly, can make a big difference to long-term health. There’s still a lot to learn, of course. I think every good doctor keeps learning. But every patient I see teaches me something new, and I carry those lessons forward—with honesty, empathy, and the intent to keep improving.

I completed my medical degree in 2023, but honestly, my journey in healthcare started way before that. Since 2018, I’ve been actively involved in clinical practice—getting hands-on exposure across multiple departments like ENT, pediatrics, dermatology, ophthalmology, medicine, and emergency care. One of the most intense and defining phases of my training was working at a District Government Hospital for a full year during the COVID pandemic. It was chaotic, unpredictable, and exhausting—but it also grounded me in real-world medicine like no textbook ever could. Over time, I’ve worked in both OPD and IPD setups, handling everything from mild viral fevers to more stubborn, long-term conditions. These day-to-day experiences really built my base and taught me how to stay calm when things get hectic—and how to adjust fast when plans don’t go as expected. What I’ve learned most is that care isn't only about writing the right medicine. It’s about being fully there, listening properly, and making sure the person feels seen—not just treated. Alongside clinical work, I’ve also been exposed to preventive health, health education, and community outreach. These areas really matter to me because I believe real impact begins outside the hospital, with awareness and early intervention. My approach is always centered around clarity, empathy, and clinical logic—I like to make sure every patient knows exactly what’s going on and why we’re doing what we’re doing. I’ve always felt a pull towards general medicine and internal care, and honestly, I’m still learning every single day—each patient brings a new lesson. Medicine never really sits still, it keeps shifting, and I try to shift with it. Not just in terms of what I know, but also in how I listen and respond. For me, it’s always been about giving real care. Genuine, respectful, and the kind that actually helps a person heal—inside and out.

I'm Dr. Alan Reji, a general dentist with a deep-rooted passion for helping people achieve lasting oral health while making dental visits feel less intimidating. I graduated from Pushpagiri College of Dental Sciences (batch of 2018), and ever since, I've been committed to offering high-quality care that balances both advanced clinical knowledge and genuine compassion for my patients. Starting Dent To Smile here in Palakkad wasn’t just about opening a clinic—it was really about creating a space where people feel relaxed the moment they walk in. Dental care can feel cold or overly clinical, and I’ve always wanted to change that. So I focused on making it warm, easygoing, and centered completely around you. I mix new-age tech with some good old-fashioned values—really listening, explaining stuff without jargon, and making sure you feel involved, not just treated. From regular cleanings to fillings or even cosmetic work, I try my best to keep things smooth and stress-free. No hidden steps. No last-minute surprises. I have a strong interest in patient education and preventive dentistry. I genuinely believe most dental issues can be caught early—or even avoided—when patients are given the right information at the right time. That’s why I take time to talk, not just treat. Helping people understand why something’s happening is as important to me as treating what’s happening. At my practice, I’ve made it a point to stay current with the latest innovations—digital diagnostics, minimally invasive techniques, and smart scheduling that respects people’s time. I also try to make my services accessible and affordable, because good dental care shouldn’t be out of reach for anyone.

You’re already taking great steps by having chia seeds, curd, salads, and enough water—these support gut health well. To improve further, add prebiotics like garlic, onions, oats, and bananas, and consider a probiotic supplement with strains like Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium. Please reduce sugar, ultra-processed foods, and late-night eating, and consult a gastroenterologist if symptoms persist despite lifestyle changes.

I’m a periodontist and academician with a strong clinical and teaching background. Over the last 4 years and 8 months, I’ve been actively involved in dental education, guiding students at multiple levels including dental hygienist, BDS, and MDS programs. Currently, I serve as a Reader at MMCDSR in Ambala, Haryana—a role that allows me to merge my academic passion with hands-on experience. Clinically, I’ve been practicing dentistry for the past 12 years. From routine procedures like scaling and root planing to more advanced cases involving grafts, biopsies, and implant surgeries. Honestly, I still find joy in doing a simple RCT when it’s needed. It’s not just about the procedure but making sure the patient feels comfortable and safe. Academically, I have 26 research publications to my credit. I’m on the editorial boards of the Archives of Dental Research and Journal of Dental Research and Oral Health, and I’ve spent a lot of time reviewing manuscripts—from case reports to meta-analyses and even book reviews. I was honored to receive the “Best Editor” award by Innovative Publications, and Athena Publications recognized me as an “excellent reviewer,” which honestly came as a bit of a surprise! In 2025, I had the opportunity to present a guest lecture in Italy on traumatic oral lesions. Sharing my work and learning from peers globally has been incredibly fulfilling. Outside academics and clinics, I’ve also worked in the pharmaceutical sector as a Drug Safety Associate for about 3 years, focusing on pharmacovigilance. That role really sharpened my attention to detail and deepened my understanding of drug interactions and adverse effects. My goal is to keep learning, and give every patient and student my absolute best.

You’re on the right track with chia seeds, curd, salads, and good water intake, but gut healing takes more than just a few healthy habits. Add prebiotic-rich foods (like bananas, oats, garlic), avoid processed and fried foods, and eat warm, home-cooked meals at regular times. For deeper repair, consider a quality probiotic supplement and consult a gastroenterologist if symptoms persist despite these changes.

I am a General Practitioner who kind of lives on the frontline of everything, really. From sneezes to serious stuff, I handle a mix of it all—and weirdly, that’s what I love about being a GP. I get to see newborns coming in for their first jabs, and then later that day maybe I'm talking through meds with someone who's managing diabetes or heart disease for years. There’s a lot of variety, which keeps me on my toes—nothing ever feels too routine. Most days, I’m diving into a bit of everything—diagnosing infections, keeping an eye on chronic conditions like asthma or hypertension, helping folks plan their health goals, or sometimes just being a good listener when they need to vent. Preventive care’s a big deal for me. I like to catch things early, before they grow into something more serious. Sometimes all it takes is one small observation or something a patient casually mentions—and that changes everything. What I try to do is treat people, not charts. It's about who they are, what matters to them, and what really works in their life—not just what the textbook says. Every treatment plan I make is adjusted based on the real-world challenges each person’s facing. I also explain stuff in plain language. Like, no jargon for the sake of sounding clever. If someone doesn’t understand their condition, how can they take care of themself properly? Oh, and I do my best to keep learning constantly. Medicine doesn’t pause, right? Whether it’s a new guideline, research update or clinical tool—I keep checking, reading, taking notes (sometimes at midnight, honestly). All of this helps me feel confident that what I’m offering isn’t outdated or guesswork. What keeps me going is the trust people place in me. Being someone’s go-to doctor, knowing they’ll come to me when they’re worried or confused—that’s a big responsibility. But also kinda a gift. I don’t just see symptoms, I see stories—and I get to be part of their health journey from day one to who-knows-when. It's not perfect, and yeah, sometimes I feel I missed something or could’ve said something better. But I’m always trying, always caring, and I’m really here—for all of it.

See you are on right track with regarding to diet so now you may go for some extra steps like exercises. Make it a habit for and you will see the difference in 2 weeks. Start from simple stretching exercises and jogging.

Before all I would like to know about your family history for such, any health issue and have you consulted Gansto regarding this ?

Constipation despite a seemingly good intake of fiber from chia seeds, curds, and salads, along with ample water, can be frustrating. Let’s tackle this systematically. Firstly, ensure you’re getting enough total fiber intake from all sources; the recommendation is about 25-30 grams per day, but sometimes sources like salads and curds might not provide sufficient bulking fiber. You might consider whole grains, legumes, fruits like pears or apples (with the skin), or adding more vegetables to ensure a mix of soluble and insoluble fibers. Regular physical activity can also stimulate intestinal activity—aim for at least 30 minutes most days, as even walking can help. Sometimes, stress can impact bowel movements, so implementing stress-relieving practices like yoga, meditation, or deep-breathing exercises could be beneficial. Another aspect to consider is gut microbiota; although you’re taking curd, a varied probiotic intake can be beneficial. You might try fermented foods like kefir, sauerkraut, or kimchi to diversify the gut flora. If these don’t bring relief, consider reviewing any medications or supplements with your doctor, as some can contribute to constipation. Also, keeping a stool diary can help identify patterns or triggers. If constipation persists beyond lifestyle adjustments, consider seeing a healthcare professional to rule out underlying issues like hypothyroidism, IBS, or other gastrointestinal conditions. This ensures they can assess for any need for specific medical treatments or interventions.
