What patients are saying

Such a lovely positive experience.

Dr Chakraborty has an excellent manner and explains everything in a way my son can understand. We are very happy with the service we are receiving from her.

The appointment ran on time and we felt comfortable with the consultant. She provided treatment options and followed up quickly via email with further helpful information.

Dr Chakraborty was professional, personable and made the assessment for my son a positive experience.

We have seen child psychiatrists before in other settings. This was by far the most supportive and understanding experience.

Please accept my sincere thanks for your care and kindness. I know you say it’s your job, but you have touched our lives in a way no one else has and from the bottom of my heart, I will remain forever grateful.

Dr Rashmi was very warm and friendly. So easy to talk to and professional. She put us all at ease straight away with her approach and my daughter enjoyed talking to her so much her mood was lifted for the rest of the day.

A lovely, approachable lady who listens and takes our views on board.

Rashmi was clear in her advice, offering context for proper understanding and was respectful to my son, given he is now 16yrs of age – treating him as a young adult and including me when appropriate to do so.

The service we received was very welcoming. Everything was explained diligently, and Dr Chakraborty’s approach is warm and comforting (just what you need under difficult circumstances). I would highly recommend this service, in particular, Dr Chakraborty.

Great consultation and engagement with carer, could not have asked for anything more. Thank you

The psychiatrist we saw was brilliant. She listened and asked lots of questions to build a true reflection of our daughter. We didn’t have to wait long for a diagnosis, when this was given everything was explained. We have been sent information on both diagnoses. Everything was discussed in detail, and she was happy to answer all our questions. We have discussed moving forward and what treatments there are available and how this will help. I couldn’t be more thankful for her support and help.

The service was amazing, and we felt very comfortable! I would recommend this service.

Kind, thoughtful and thorough care.

I really appreciate her clear professionalism and understanding. She was also very kind and empathetic. My daughter was very nervous and uncomfortable about the situation, but Dr Chakraborty did a lovely job of making her more at ease, and my daughter agreed emphatically that she was “very nice and kind”.

Dr Chakraborty has provided exceptional care to our daughter and has been very helpful to our family in providing expert advice.

Rashmi was kind, welcoming and thorough in her assessment. She explained everything in great detail to make hearing the diagnosis easier to understand.

Rashmi is great. Really friendly and happy to answer any questions and suggest a good treatment.

Very kind, patient and considerate professional, really understands our child’s needs.

Always very friendly and approachable. Listens carefully, putting you at ease. very reassuring and understanding.

On arrival, we were made to feel extremely welcome. The whole ambience of the reception area and offices was very inviting. We met the consultant psychiatrist who was very professional, but also warm and welcoming. She made us feel very relaxed. She let us all talk and then talked individually to the person suffering with depression. Finally, we received a very thorough written report of our visit, detailing the recommendations for the way forward.

Dr Rashmi has been helpful and empathetic during a difficult time for our child. We recommend her professional expertise to anyone struggling with the mental health of their children.
