Is it this theme? http://themeforest.net/item/doctor-universal-medical-wordpress-theme/4052132
If yes, have you a wpml-config.xml in your theme directory? that should be the way to achieve this with both WPML and Polylang.
Yes, here:
<wpml-config>
<custom-types>
<custom-type translate="1">ait-service-box</custom-type>
<custom-type translate="1">ait-testimonial</custom-type>
<custom-type translate="1">ait-gridgallery</custom-type>
<custom-type translate="1">ait-team</custom-type>
<custom-type translate="1">ait-faq</custom-type>
</custom-types>
<taxonomies>
<taxonomy translate="1">ait-service-box-category</taxonomy>
<taxonomy translate="1">ait-testimonial-category</taxonomy>
<taxonomy translate="1">ait-gridgallery-category</taxonomy>
<taxonomy translate="1">ait-team-category</taxonomy>
<taxonomy translate="1">ait-faq-category</taxonomy>
</taxonomies>
</wpml-config>

Well. That means that your theme has multilingual support for custom post types and taxonomies. But there is nothing related to strings you enter in theme options. That’s done through a <admin-texts> section in this file (see http://polylang.wordpress.com/documentation/documentation-for-developers/the-wpml-language-configuration-file/)
You should ask the theme author to add support for translation of the description in wpml-config.xml.
I already asked author.. this is what he replied:
Hi, this tagline can be translated in admin area. When you switch languages, you can add different text to these sections for different language. So just switch to another language and change this string. Most of the text which are added in admin and displayed on page can be translated like this.
I went to admin and in top menu I switched language but it didnt help me so I decided to ask You.

I don’t know how it works. This functionality is not documented by WPML. If the theme author shares the way he makes this in his code, then I may try to support this.
