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.

Dr. Charan Kumar Pottem

I did my MD in Psychiatry from NIMHANS, which is widely respected for its work in mental health. During my time there, I worked with a wide variety of adult psychiatric conditions, including substance use issues and neurodevelopmental disorders. The hands-on experience gave me strong insight into how mental health is shaped by a mix of biological changes, life circumstances, and emotional patterns—how they all overlap and affect each other in real life. In my work, I focus more on the person than just the label of a diagnosis. I do use methods supported by research, yes, but I also think what really matters is showing up fully—really hearing someone out, staying with their story, and figuring things out together to see what actually works for them. Mental health care, to me, should go beyond just calming symptoms—it should also help someone regain balance and clarity in their day-to-day life. I keep learning, always trying to stay up-to-date with new findings and better ways of treatment. That way, anyone who comes to me can expect care that’s both thoughtful and informed by the latest in psychiatry. What drives me is a mix of clinical commitment and a deep belief in spreading awareness around mental well-being. Helping people strengthen their emotional resilience and live fuller lives is what keeps me going.

Hello Asif. If you always had these conditions, it most probably be due to some other medical reasons like hormonal imbalances. But if they developed recently, then it’s more likely to be due to psychological causes especially anxiety. Performance anxiety can develop from such bad sexual experiences which eventually can lead to decreased libido and desire. Kindly consult psychiatrist or sexologist for detailed evaluation and treatment. Alternatively, for premature ejaculation, you can use local anesthetic ointment to glans penis 20 minutes before sex and to be washed off 5 minutes before, in case of hypersensitive glans. There are 2 other techniques that can help in managing premature ejaculation - start-stop technique or squeeze technique (You can find videos on how to do in YouTube). Don’t start any medication or herbal supplements by yourself without consulting a specialist. Those may do more harm than good. Let me know if you need anymore help.
Regards.

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.

Premature ejaculation, erectile dysfunction, and low libido for several years may be due to hormonal imbalance, stress, or underlying medical issues. Treatment usually involves blood tests, lifestyle changes, counseling, and medicines if needed. Please consult a urologist or andrologist for proper evaluation and treatment.

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.

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.

Investigations (to find root cause):
Blood tests:
Testosterone (total & free)
TSH, T3, T4 (thyroid)
Serum Prolactin
Fasting Blood Sugar
Your problems (PE, ED, low libido) are all connected and likely due to psychological + lifestyle + possible hormonal imbalance. With proper tests, lifestyle correction, stress management, and if needed, medication under doctor supervision, your sexual health can be fully restored.

Dr. Aarav Deshmukh

I am a general physician with 8 years of practice, mostly in urban clinics and semi-rural setups. I began working right after MBBS in a govt hospital in Kerala, and wow — first few months were chaotic, not gonna lie. Since then, I’ve seen 1000s of patients with all kinds of cases — fevers, uncontrolled diabetes, asthma, infections, you name it. I usually work with working-class patients, and that changed how I treat — people don’t always have time or money for fancy tests, so I focus on smart clinical diagnosis and practical treatment. Over time, I’ve developed an interest in preventive care — like helping young adults with early metabolic issues. I also counsel a lot on diet, sleep, and stress — more than half the problems start there anyway. I did a certification in evidence-based practice last year, and I keep learning stuff online. I’m not perfect (nobody is), but I care. I show up, I listen, I adjust when I’m wrong. Every patient needs something slightly different. That’s what keeps this work alive for me.

Managing premature ejaculation and erectile dysfunction, along with low libido, involves a multi-faceted approach that looks at physical, psychological, and lifestyle factors. Let’s cover each aspect. Firstly, it’s important to identify underlying causes, which can be complex and varied: stress, anxiety, depression, or relationship issues are common psychological contributors. Physically, hormonal imbalances, such as low testosterone, might be playing a role in low libido and erectile issues. Chronic health conditions like diabetes or hypertension, as well as lifestyle factors such as obesity, smoking, or alcohol use, can also contribute to these problems. A comprehensive check-up with a healthcare provider would be essential to evaluate these factors, so you should schedule an appointment to get blood tests for hormone levels and evaluate any chronic conditions. Medications like selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) can sometimes help with premature ejaculation, while phosphodiesterase inhibitors (like sildenafil for erectile dysfunction) could be advised, depending on your specific health condition. Consulting with a urologist or a sexual health specialist could give more targeted insights. On the lifestyle front, regular exercise, a healthy diet, and stress reduction through relaxation techniques or therapy can be beneficial. Managing mental health is also key, as anxiety reduction can improve both erectile function and premature ejaculation. For some individuals, sex therapy may help address psychological components and improve communication between partners. While selecting a course of treatment, consider any medication interactions if you’re already taking other drugs. If symptoms worsen or become more distressing, or if they’re linked to other unexplained health issues, seek medical care promptly. Regular follow-up appointments can help monitor progress and tailor your treatment plan effectively.
