This man changed the way I used to look at life . I can assure you that if you people are suffering from substance abuse then this person is your go to. I visited many doctors and even underwent a rehabilitation program before I met him. I owe my life to this person else i would have been lying dead on the streets somewhere causing an immense grief to my family . It's been 6 years since i underwent treatment under him and finally have got my mind straight and focused. Words would fall short for me to describe his contribution in my life. Peace out.

A great doctor. Takes time to listen to patients, explains your options, and what is best for you. Tries to get things done with as less medication as possible. In waiting rooms, I have even heard patients say how S. Das helped them sleep peacefully by prescribing something other than sleep medication, which is habit-forming. Would really recommend S. Das to everyone. However, you should have realistic expectations and give time (multiple sittings) to notice results with treatment. This is true for any psychiatrist.
I was suffering by opioid addiction since 2014. I met Dr Das on Nov, 2017 for first time. Earlier I visited many Doctors but anyone can't give me proper solutions to get rid of from opioids. Dr. Das listen my problems and prescribed optimum medication. Now I am totaly cured and free from opioids. Dr Das is a very good psyco consultant, reads the patient very carefully and co operates maximum with them. His assistant person is not so good as previous. Hospitality should be maximum at any helth care centre.

Hoped for better: Doctor friendlinessExplanation of the health issue
My experience with Dr. Sourav Das was very bad. He was impatient and did not give me the opportunity to explain my points - and also evaded some of my important questions. He just pushed towards getting the meeting over quickly.
More than any other specialty psychiatrists need to hear out patients - this was very much missing. I am highly disappointed seeing such utter lack of commitment and unprofessional behaviour of Dr. Sourav Das.
It was a loss of time and Rs 700 for me, and would recommend everybody not to consult Dr. Sourav Das.

I was undergoing too much stress for many years due to some misguidance,I had some grudges which I was unable to express and recently the stress increased a bit due to some personal issues. I was not willing to have a counselling but at last I went. I became relieved just after the 1st seating itself, the moment I came out of the chamber my feeling was as if nothing has happened. Now I am able to focus more on my work. The doctor was very friendly he was having a lot of patience while hearing the problems. And last but not the least he did not give me any high dose medicines.
