********* *******patient communication is a central clinical function, and the resultant communication is the heart and art of medicine and a central component in the delivery of health care. The 3 main goals of current doctor-patient communication are creating a good interpersonal relationship, facilitating exchange of information, and including patients in decision making. ********* ******-patient communication is determined by the doctors' “bedside manner,” which patients judge as a major indicator of their doctors' general competence. communication has the potential to help regulate patients' emotions, facilitate comprehension of medical information, and allow for better identification of patients' needs, perceptions, and expectations. There are many barriers to good communication in the doctor-patient relationship, including patients' anxiety and fear, doctors' burden of work, fear of litigation, fear of physical or verbal abuse, and unrealistic patient expectations. Prior to meeting Dr Chowdhury, I lived with marginal hope and very limited self-confidence. I could not envision a viable future. Dr. Chowdhury carefully, skill fully, and wisely facilitated my return to a world of self-esteem and self-management. He successfully combined an impressive command of psychopathy meds with an empathic manner. Dr. Chowdhury knows the difference between being a rigid shrink and an empowering professional. He was decidedly the 2nd Doctor who helped me back to my life rather my rebirth! For that, I am profoundly grateful. *** ******* *** ********* ** *** ***** ****** **** ****** ** ****** He is a caring listener.While you are speaking to him you can see the thoughtfulness in his eyes ,something that is truly a rarity in this world nowadays. The best part of him is he tells you what you need to hear not what you want to hear. Also, has been able to gently push me to consider some things I wouldn't have on my own, but which have proven to really help. I strongly feel that with Dr. Chowdhury, I have an ally who can help me transform my personal narrative into a fully-lived and realized life. In short, I recommend Dr. Chowdhury with the highest of praise.

I have visited Dr.Dutta Chowdhury because of my father’s ailing health as he is suffering from Lewy body dementia .Before we visited Dr.Dutta Chowdhury he was undergoing a treatment but I didn’t find any improvement in his health instead it was deteriorating.As soon as my fathers started his treatment under Dr.Dutta Chowdhury I found improvement from the very second day.His diagnostic acumen is amazing and his way of explaining the issue to the patient’s family is very satisfying.His approaches to the treatment is very modern and he is always available to his patients or their family at any point of time Which is very rare gesture.I am really thankful to him for treating my father with so well and with so much care. ** ** ******* ** ** *** ** *** **** **************** ** ******* ****

Doctor has the patience to listen to my problem. ** ** **** ************* *** ******** ********** **** ******* His advice can be obtained even in small matters for example if a medicine is not available in the market then he readily gives you the alternatives which are available. I was diagnised with paranoid schizophrenia by him. I have been under his treatment for almost a month and a half now and is already getting the benefits of his advice. I shall continue to consult him in hope of living an absolutely normal life which everyone deserves.

I was really very depressed and tensed, also unable to resolve my problems as well as share with anyone. Literally, I was having typical symptoms of depression. Suddenly,by the sake of God, to consult a doctor came to my disturbed mind. I googled and found Dr. Arijit Dutta Chowdhury on top of the list. Suddenly I decided to opt him as my consultant and went to be treated on the next day. I was very anxious whether it will work or not. But trust me,from the moment I shared my mess with him and he started his therapy I felt better day by day. His care and treatment brought a drastic change in my attitude and activities as well.
I am really very very very satisfied with the treatment and proud of my decision which was one of the best decision of my life till now. A very heartfelt gratitude to You,Sir.
Stay always well and make us well,Sir. Thank you 😊🙏

I have been suffering from bipolar disorder and clinical depression for quite some time. It hampered my day-to-day life, sometimes quite severely. I even contracted schizophrenia at one point of time. But after meeting Dr. Chowdhury, I am very much better and with no visible problem as I am under his guidance and medication. I personally recommend anybody with psychiatric disorder to meet Dr. Chowdhury for a speedy recovery.

I've consulted him twice. He is very rude sometimes. **** ** *** **** ******* *** *** * ************ ** * ***** ****** ** ** **** **** ********* Personally I am very much offended by his behaviour. Otherwise I can't comment on medicines as he is a doctor. I just share my personal opinion.

Happy with: Doctor friendliness
I am very much pleased with my experience with the doctor.The first time I met him, was a world away from my previous experience with psychiatrists. He made me feel that I was in safe hands and even made me smile when I left.I always have a lot of questions about my treatment, and instead of brushing me off , he was always patient and thorough in answering them. His friendliness really made it easy to be forthcoming with all of my personal information. He truly values his responsibility as a doctor and it shows . A big thanks to him.
