Visited For Sleep Disorder Treatment
Happy with: Doctor friendlinessExplanation of the health issueTreatment satisfactionValue for moneyWait time
I am a US Citizen in mid-50s who was in perfect physical health and enjoying a senior executive role when one night I just could not sleep followed by a 2nd sleepless night. Those two nights triggered an anxiety around "will I be able to sleep" and it spiraled out of control. After a month of torturous inability to sleep and coinciding with a India trip, I researched online and found Dr Arun.

We were looking to go to a Doctor for mental health since my husband was having some negative thoughts and it started to get bad. It went to a point were our daily was very difficult and he could not be happy and started to doubt everything and anything and would avoid talking to everyone but for immediate family. We did know that it all started with work stress since we changed places and move to a new job but we were desperate for a solution. Finally after reading the reviews here (the main point why we are giving a review now) we called and booked an appointment. I appreciate Mr.Prasanth who understood the concern and gave us an time slot when someone cancelled. Although i had strong confidence, my husband was doubtful in the beginning. Dr.Arun did listen to both my husband and me in the first visit and he prescribed some medication to bring down the anxiety. Although there was improvement in the first week, there were some lows :( But after the 2nd visit - where the Dr gave an exercise - he did improve a lot. Dr.Arun said that he would be back to normal in 2-3 weeks and that gave us a LOT of confidence. Its been more than a month now and he is doing good. He is still taking his medicine and doing the exercise Dr gave, but we are a lot more positive!!! i do STRONGLY believe he will be completely recovered and be more open even after the prescriptions gets done. The other very good thing was that Dr.Arun is open to communication if there are any questions over phone/whatsapp (i believe Skype as well ) when he has the time. I am not sure what we would have done if we have not decided to go to him and i wouldn't want to even think that way - we were not at a very good phase in our life. We were lucky to approach him first and i would recommend Dr.Arun for Mental Health. You dont know that you are suffering until you are at the end of your breaking point - due to the lack of awareness and i wish/pray for anyone who are where we were a couple of months back to be given an opportunity to meet a Dr like Dr.Arun so that we all can be on the road to recovery and live a blissful life! THANK YOU Dr! We sure appreciate your help, time and support.
Visited For Anxiety And Depression
Happy with: Doctor friendlinessExplanation of the health issueTreatment satisfactionValue for moneyWait time
I came across many psychiatrists and many of them are accumulating patients their self by prescribing high and severe drugs which will make the patients to be very much dependent and couldn’t come out of it till their whole life. I was like the same till i visited AGAM clinic as i went through severe depression and anxiety for many years and right after my first appointment with Dr.Arun, i could evidently witness the changes myself within the span of a week time and the doctor is moreover like a friend and his motive is to rule out the issues with very minimal medications or without medications by changing the lifestyle like regulating sleeping pattern, meditation, exercise or walking which make one better with the minimal medications very effective. Even for chronic illness patients he follows the same pattern and Doctor is a great gift for the people like me. He inspires me and hopefully everyone too. I don’t have father but i see him like more of a father to me .he was a born fighter fought for his life from the very beginning of his life as, i read his life’s story which is on the AGAM website and i really admire him the way he handles and cares the patients. Hopefully my review will help one another like me who was searching for a friend like doctor or doctor like friend of me. Thank you AGAM for making me to share my experience !!
