About the Psychiatrist
Who you would
be consulting
Dr. Shaurya Garg holds an MD in Psychiatry from AIIMS New Delhi, where he was University Topper, and an MBBS from VMMC and Safdarjung Hospital. He is a Member of the Royal College of Psychiatrists (UK) and of the European Psychiatric Association, and has contributed to public conversations on mental health through NDTV, Aaj Tak, Times Now, India Today and The Indian Express.
The practice is focused on careful, evidence-based adult psychiatry: understanding the problem properly, arriving at a diagnosis, and explaining the reasoning and the options before any treatment begins.
In Person and Online
Two ways to consult,
one clinician
In person in New Delhi: for those who prefer to meet face to face, in-person consultations are available in New Delhi. Appointment details and location are shared at the time of booking.
Online across India: for patients anywhere in the country, consultations are conducted by secure video, with the same clinician and the same standard of assessment. You can read how a consultation is structured on the consultations page, and see fees on the fees page.
What Is Treated
Areas of
care
- ADHD assessment and care for adults, including the quieter presentations often missed in capable, high-achieving people. See also the adult ADHD assessment page.
- Anxiety and panic, from persistent worry to panic attacks and health anxiety.
- Depression and mood disorders, with careful screening for bipolarity before treatment.
- OCD and intrusive thoughts, including the distressing thoughts that are commonly misunderstood.
- Sleep problems and insomnia, treated as a medical issue rather than a habit to push through.
- Sexual health concerns, addressed with discretion and clinical seriousness.
Choosing a Psychiatrist in Delhi
What to look for,
wherever you go
Whether or not you consult this practice, a few things are worth checking in any psychiatrist. Look for a verifiable medical qualification and registration (a psychiatrist is a medical doctor with an MD in Psychiatry, registered with a medical council). Look for adequate consultation time, since a proper psychiatric assessment cannot be rushed. Look for a willingness to discuss options beyond medication where appropriate, clear and upfront fees, and proper record-keeping.
These are reasonable expectations of anyone you trust with your mental health, and a good clinician will meet them without being asked.
Beyond Delhi
For patients
across India
If you are outside Delhi, an online consultation gives you access to the same clinician by secure video. Much psychiatric assessment and follow-up can be done well this way. Suitability depends on the clinical situation: some presentations need in-person examination, and where that is the case it is said clearly. Some prescriptions may require an in-person review in line with telemedicine rules. Video consultation is not for emergencies.
Common Questions
Consulting in Delhi,
answered simply
Do I need a referral to see a psychiatrist?
No. You can book a psychiatric consultation directly, without a referral from another doctor. If your case would benefit from coordination with another clinician, that is arranged as part of care.
Can a family member join the consultation?
Yes, where you would like them to and it is clinically appropriate. Family input can add useful perspective, particularly in an assessment. The consultation remains centred on you and your consent.
Are consultations in Hindi or English?
Consultations are available in both Hindi and English, so you can speak in whichever you are most comfortable with.
In-person or online, which should I choose?
Both offer the same clinician and standard of care. In person suits those who prefer to meet face to face or where an in-person examination is needed; online suits those outside Delhi or who prefer the convenience of a secure video consultation.
