Happy with:Â Doctor friendlinessExplanation of the health issueValue for money
She was very cooperative in understanding the issue and giving proper solution to resolve it. She explained every single question while asking in order to get the honest answer for better analysis.
I have seen Archana Dinesh for more than 4 years for depression, anxiety, ADHD, eating disorders etc, and she has really helped me change my life around. We tried Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and such other techniques as required and according to my situation. I have taken huge leaps in my journey because of her guidance. She is very smart, very kind and very knowledgable. Please have no doubt that she is one of the very best therapists in Bengaluru.
Really bad experience.
I had consulted her for around 3-4 sessions. I needed a doctor's note. She kept delaying it, will get it done in next 2-3 days.
I needed to buy insurance and these so called mental health professionals are the ones who are roadblocks to the process.
After some weeks , when I refused to come to sessions saying that the experience has been unhelpful. she made the suggestion that I am just here for the doctors note . Pathetic, have some empathy and don't make such hogwash suggestions.
Imagine week after week, insurance company is asking for note and they keep running me in circles. This happened at samvith neuro clinic in Koramangala.
Have more empathy and understand that because of your lack of help , it's become a traumatizing experience for me.
I have been consulting Archana .. for long time now and from then to now I have only gotten better .
