I met doctor Shayanth M for hyper anxiety related issue. But the doctor took time and was being very attentive to the details I was giving him. In addition he asked many questions patiently listening to my answers. He did a very deep diagnosis with clear explanation using pictorial representation of problems. In one dose of his prescribed medication I feel like I am a changed person within 12 hours. I would recommend this doctor highly to any patients suffering from anxiety and other mental illness as he is very experienced and deals with the patients very professionally. Thank you doctor.

We visited Dr. Shayanth for my wife's anxiety disorders and were completely delighted with his treatment to the matter. He has good ears and diligently listens to the problem's minute nuances. He outlined all of the probable circumstances for why the problem happened, as well as the cure. We have started the treatment and will report back in 90 days with the outcomes. I definitely recommend Dr. Shanyanth for any psychiatric difficulties.
I have been having this problem in getting sleep and I used to have sleepless nights due to my hectic schedules and working round the clock with abnormal sleeping patterns and sudden changes in shifts . I consulted Dr Shayanth for the same , and I found the session very useful and he was very compassionate to my problems .

I have been dealing with stress, anxiety and panic attacks lately. I found the doctor via Practo. So far I have had three consultations. The doctor is very patient, listens to your issues, explains what you are experiencing and devises out a plan for you. He clears and explains all the doubts you may have. He also explains about the medication and what to do in circumstances etc. I feel far better than before and on a recovery path.
