Visited For Sexual anxietyStress ManagementPsychosexual Problems
I visited a Psychiatrist for the first time, hoping to be heard patiently and thoroughly. Unfortunately, Dr. Rai seemed to be in a rush despite me reaching in time for the appointment. Firstly, I had to wait for 15-20 mins which can be understandable but during my appointment the Doctor hardly seem to be interested in listening and being there with me for providing mental/emotional support. Even when I mentioned about carrying a childhood trauma and not healing from it, ** *** *** **** **** *** ******** ** ******* **** **** ***** *** He hardly spent 7-8 minutes with me, during this brief period also the previous patient barged in twicse & disturbed my flow when I was sharing something intense. Doctor seemed more inclined towards immediately suggesting treatment, prescribing medicines and implying ** *** ** **** *** ****** ***** ****** *** ********* **** ***** *** ****** ***** ** **** ******* ** ** * *** ******** ****** ** ************
Not a good experience, will not visit again.
Visited For Mental health
I visited Dr. Rahul Rai Kakkar for mental health issues, hoping for a thoughtful and understanding session. However, the experience was extremely disappointing. Instead of taking the time to listen to my concerns, he rushed through the consultation in just five minutes and immediately prescribed medications.
Mental health treatment should be about understanding the patient, their emotions, and struggles, not just handing out prescriptions without proper discussion. I felt unheard and dismissed, as if my thoughts and feelings didn’t matter. A psychiatrist should provide guidance, empathy, and a safe space, but unfortunately, I did not experience that here.
If you're looking for a doctor who genuinely listens and helps beyond just medications, I would not recommend this clinic.
