Listened well, explained things in easy to understand way, helped massively with my anxiety.

Cold and judgemental on the first appointment. Cold and only interested in ticking the boxes on the second (and last) appointment. I had to ask via email to the reception for discharge paper and medication advice for my GP. I do not recommend this doctor. When I'll need psychiatrist I'dll ask for a different one. Thank you anyway for providing the service

Dr Deshpande was absolutely wonderful from the first interaction that I had with her to the final assessment. She was very reassuring and explained how the treatment would be done and gave me all of the information that I needed at every stage of the process.

Dr Deshpande is very caring, patient and passionate about what she does. The TMS that she specialises in is something that I was unsure about at first, but after just one week I have noticed significant results already and no side-effects like the antidepressants that were not effective for me in the past. I felt like I was an empty shell, but I am feeling more motivated and alive now. I highly recommend Dr Deshpande 👌

Dr Nikhila is an incredible woman. From my first appointment she made me feel totally at ease and gave me the reassurance that I would get better. She’s given me hope and a new lease of life and I’m so very grateful for her expertise. Thank you so much Nikhila.

Dr Deshpande was supportive, attentive, and caring whilst I was under her care. I'm now discharged, but if my condition requires additional psychiatric support, I will be reaching back out to her specifically. Thank you for helping me.

Dr Deshpande was incredible. She really listened to everything that I told her and gave me very credible options for the problems I was facing. She was very easy to talk to and very thorough in her diagnosis. Personally I could wait for a NHS psychiatric appointment, and this appointment was worth every penny. Highly recommended!
That is so kind of you! I am glad you found the consultation helpful.
