Psychiatry

Guided Steps Towards A Healthy Mind

The Department of Psychiatry offers comprehensive mental health services for children, adolescents and adults. Emotional wellbeing plays a vital role in overall health, and early intervention can prevent long term complications.

Wide Range of Mental Health Services

The department manages anxiety disorders, depression, mood disorders, psychotic disorders and stress related conditions. Specialized services are available for patients with suicidal tendencies, alcohol dependence and sexual health concerns.

Child and adolescent psychiatry services address behavioral issues, academic stress and developmental concerns.

Integrated Care Approach

The psychiatry team works closely with other medical and surgical departments for the management of psychosomatic disorders. Patients undergoing cardiac or major surgical procedures receive counseling support when required.

Management of psychiatric co morbidity in patients with chronic medical illnesses is an important focus area. Through therapy, medication and counseling, the department helps patients achieve emotional stability and improved quality of life.
