Dr. Sabina Rao

I’ve had the privilege of knowing Dr. Sabina Rao for nearly a decade, during which time she has provided exceptional care to both my mother and me.Her sharp diagnostic skills, attentive observation, and warm, reassuring manner make her truly outstanding. What sets her apart is not just her medical expertise, but her ability to connect with patients and offer genuine comfort during difficult times.She has always been there when we needed her most—offering timely medical support, sound advice, and the emotional strength to face the curveballs that life has thrown at us.Dr. Sabina Rao is not only a remarkable doctor but someone who makes you feel like a trusted friend.

I consulted Dr Sabina Rao for my mother's anxiety and depressive disorder that had wreaked havoc on her life for over one year. We had already been through two of Bangalore most renowned psychiatrists but had not seen any positive developments.

By the time we visited Dr Rao, we were therefore mostly without hope. But the very first meeting went off amazingly well, and her way of speaking and assuring us made my mother feel a lot better and confident. She also tweaked the medicine dosage that did wonders for the anxiety and depression.

Since then, we've been consulting Dr Rao. She is attentive and genuinely concerned about her patients and pays minute attention to everything that's being spoken as well as looks out for tacit signals in the patients demeanor and body language.

I would strongly recommend her as a compassionate and effective doctor.

The doc is competent and knows her thing but moderation in the way she talks is highly recommended. In my discussion

I saw her taking personal dig at where I belong from her(as she said she had horrific experience of dealing with patients who belonged to the same place as I do)..,an educated doctor if talks so in a regressive fashion is complete no and no...patients can be from anywhere but if you have a problem then specify that I am not going to treat people say from a certain place ..,

Also when I told her about my family member suffering from a similar disorder as I ...instead of offering some soft words ...she went on to say that let that member take more help and not bother you ...I dint understand and thought it was one of the most indecent interactions that I have ever had with any doctor in my entire life till date .,,It’s okay to have thoughts coz you really entitled to present one since being a doctor but she was judging and not being compassionate at all.* ***** ** * ****** *** ***** ** **** * ******** ***** ** *** *** ****** *** ******** *** ********** ****** **** ******* ** *** ***** ** ********** ******* ******* A complete thumbs down to her !!

**** *************** had to wait for a long time and when she had finally arrived at her cabin, *** ****** *** ****** *** *** *** ******* ** *** ***** **** ****** we were supposed to be the first ones and we had also arrived on time. **** ***** ******** ***** *** ************ *** *** **** **** *** ********* ******* ** *** ****** **** ** *** Would not recommend her at all* * ****** ** ***** ***** *** ********

Dr Rao appears competent in her field and we visited to get a treatment plan and diagnosis for my child.

However, as a mother I was surprised that Dr Rao asked a number of intrusive, personal and completely irrelevant questions on my ability to support myself and my child. Repeated attempts to redirect her to the case at hand failed, and we wasted a lot of appointment time on a discussion of my career and her apparent lack of belief that I could financially fend for myself and my child. I finally had to literally tell her that we were ok and that I had full confidence in my career abilities.

It is disappointing to see a woman professional show such sexism towards other women. It hurts women and female children. I am sure no man would have been subject to such intrusive questions. As a senior executive myself and one who works with both women and men, I would hope Dr Rao would moderate her style.

We intend to continue with her because I feel she is a competent medical professional.

This was my first visit. I came in defensive, I thought I wouldn't share or talk about much; I planned on keeping it civil and I didn't expect to like her....after all....and after all I have been through these last few years.... I don't trust anyone and..I was told that in the practice of Psychiatry in India today.. It's tough to find a doctor who really cares about you ..... It's all about the rupee.. ******** *** ********* ** *** ******** ** *** *** ******** Confident, warm, friendly but not overbearing or patronizing... She maintained firm eye contact and appeared genuine. She is sharp, well-traveled, eloquent and non-judgmental. I opened up to her almost immediately. I left feeling very very grateful that I had been referred and pushed to make that appointment to see her - I have been putting it off for almost 2 months. Finally making the appointment to meet Dr Rao, was one of the best decisions I've made in the last, couple of terrible months of my life.

Gone to see the doctor to get some tips to better manage my trouble making son. She advised us to set the family hierarchy in order and make the child understand where his place in the family is. Giving kids too much importance can cause kids to act out .

Very valuable advice.

Dr. Sabina is extremely rude in her behavior. she does not respect the patient nor the helpers who accompany them. *** ** ***** **** ************ *** ** ****** ** ********* ** ** *** *** ***** ** * ********* ************ **** *** ******* *** ***** ********** ****** *** ** ***** **** ********** She might be qualified and experienced, but that does not mean that she would have to be disrespectful. Getting slots foran appointment with her is quite difficult, and finally she puts it on the patients that they are doing the booking last minute. We had a couple of appointments and on both she was very very disrespectful. ** ** ******* **** ****** *** *** ***** ********* **** *** ***** **** ***** **** ** **** *** **** ********* ****** **** I would never ever recommend this doctor to anyone.

Dr Rao is very quick at grasping the core of the problem without being obtrusive or invasive. Very pleasant experience

The pills prescribed by the Dr were very helpful in dealing with my panic attacks which ruined my sleep schedule. She helped me make sure I would get the full sleep needed to face the day.
