Consulting from Canada
Online Ayurvedic consultations from Canada
Video consultations with BAMS-qualified Ayurvedic doctors in India, scheduled in Canadian time zones. Talk through digestion, hair, skin, stress and sleep, and leave with a written diet and routine plan — to use alongside the care you get from your family doctor.

Before you book from Canada
Our doctors are BAMS-qualified and registered as Ayurvedic practitioners in India. They are not licensed by any provincial or territorial college of physicians, and Vaidora is not a Canadian health-care provider. A consultation is Ayurvedic wellness guidance — diet, routine and lifestyle — to use alongside your own doctor, not instead of them. Please don't stop any prescribed medicine, and for anything urgent call 911.

Built around where you live
Ayurveda through a Canadian winter
Long, cold, dry winters and indoor heating affect skin, joints, digestion and sleep. Your doctor asks about the season you are in and builds a plan around food available where you live.

If your doctor suggests an herbal product

You are never obliged to buy anything. We do not ship medicines outside India, and we don't sell proprietary kits.
Questions from Canada
Are your doctors licensed in Canada?
No. Our doctors hold BAMS degrees and are registered as Ayurvedic practitioners in India. They are not licensed to practise medicine in Canada, so a consultation is Ayurvedic wellness guidance — diet, routine and lifestyle — to use alongside care from your family doctor, not instead of it.
What does a consultation cost?
CA$5.50 for a 30-minute first video consultation. There is no subscription and nothing renews automatically. You pay once a time has been agreed with you.
Which time zones do you cover?
We offer slots across Pacific to Atlantic time. Tell us what suits you when you book, and you'll receive a Google Meet link.
