Very bad experience at Dr. Vikram's Brain and Body Clinic

Opinion/ಅಭಿಪ್ರಾಯ

So I was struggling with procrastination, sensory issues and interpersonal relationships for years and decided to reach out to this doctor after seeing some reddit comments.

I was charged Rs. 800 for less than 15 min consultation. He gave me a list and asked me to say yes or no to if I feel them. After that he said I have ADHD. I tried to talk about sensory issues and interpersonal relationship struggles, he said ADHD brain develops slow, I'm 5 to 6 years younger and I'll catch-up. And he also added, I don't have to pathologise everything. Above all he gave a supplement he said usually helps ADHD people, it was Rs. 1300 along with meds. And he gave meds for 10 days and asked me to meet him after a month? When I checked about the supplement, it turned out to be useless.

Then I reached out to another psychiatrist and got psychometric analysis done. Autism and OCD was diagnosed along with ADHD. I'm so infurited after reading my diagnosis report now.

If you are suspecting ADHD or related issues and looking for a psychiatrist, please avoid this clinic. They'll sell you unnecessary things, won't even listen to you on your first appointment for more than 10 mins or so, and will be dismissive of your concerns. Find a better psychiatrist who will sit with you, listen to you and won't make you feel unreasonable.

My second psychiatrist listened to me for an hour, suggested Psychometric analysis, and even discussed if I needed Indian meds or the imported ones. Didn't just push me to get meds and supplements that aren't even relevant, and dump it in my body. He actually explained how they work, side effects, etc. Please don't trust doctors blindly and it's always best to get a second opinion if you don't feel right after the first one. Take care!
