When to request a psychiatric consultation
An appointment can help when changes in mood, sleep, thinking or behaviour affect daily life, or when you want a review of an existing diagnosis or treatment. You can begin with the concern you understand best.
New mental-health concerns
Review of an existing diagnosis
Medication assessment
Relapse or symptom change
How the appointment is planned
During the consultation, Dr. Sridhar asks about when the concern began, its effect on daily life, your physical health, medicines and any previous care. He explains the clinical impression, what may need further assessment and the available options. Medication is discussed only when clinically appropriate.
