By integrating modern and Ayurvedic medicine, the initiative, led by Dr. Samyak Dhawan, offers a new model in India for compassionate, inclusive, and integrative healthcare using telemedicine.

In a ground-breaking initiative, Kayakalp Global marked World Vitiligo Day 2025 by providing free medical consultations to over 1,000 vitiligo patients in underserved regions of India. The organization, in collaboration with the Indian Vitiligo Association, aims to eradicate the stigma and misinformation surrounding vitiligo.

Founded by Dr. Samyak Dhawan, Kayakalp Global combines modern medicine with Ayurveda, offering an integrative approach to dermatological care. Their telemedicine platform has successfully bridged the gap between patients in remote locations and experienced doctors, facilitating comprehensive skin assessments and customized treatment plans.

This endeavor not only addresses skin conditions but reimagines Indian healthcare as more inclusive, patient-focused, and integrative. Dr. Dhawan highlights the importance of offering solutions that merge science with tradition, advocating for scalability across the nation through initiatives like Ayushman Bharat and Digital India.
