My daughter has been seeing Dr Rashmi for over 2 years now and she has been a great help. We found her very easy to talk to (normally my daughter who has autism finds it difficult to speak to strangers). On the odd occasion if I had to contact Dr Rashmi with a query out of hours she would always reply. We are sad that now my daughter is an adult she can no longer be in Dr Rashmi’s care.
Dr Chakraborty has been instrumental in aiding our son's recovery from depression. Her calm and reassuring nature helped him feel comfortable and understood from the very beginning. We are grateful for her kindness, professionalism, and ongoing support.
Dr Chakraborty has been professional, understanding and thorough in her explanations within her service for our daughter. Dr Chakraborty uses her extensive knowledge and understanding of Autism, PDA and anxiety in girls in particular to understand individual situations with the best possible outcome in mind for the child, and therefore family as a whole. We will forever be grateful for Dr Chakraborty's support and medical professionalism.
I recently had an appointment with Dr Rashmi Chakraborty and had a very positive experience. She was kind, professional, patient, and took the time to listen carefully to my concerns. I felt heard, respected, and supported throughout the appointment, and her calm and understanding approach made a real difference. I appreciated the clear explanations and thoughtful care provided, and I am very grateful for the support received.
Dr Chakraborty has been very supportive throughout our experience and very approachable. We would highly recommend
Dr Chakraborty it’s not only an amazing doctor but also an amazing human being.
Dr Chakraborty is a compassionate psychiatrist who communicates so well with children. We feel as if she really understands our 10 year old child and we are always reassured by her advice. I would wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for a kind, knowledgeable and able child and adolescent psychiatrist.
My daughter had an initial assessment with Dr Chakraborty and our experience was very positive. After many appointments with professionals who have not listened and taken our concerns as parents seriously and listened fully to our daughters needs it was refreshing to finally feel listened to and have some progress.
Dr Rashmi has always been so helpful in our appointments. Our son has thrived under her care and we would recommend her.
From the very beginning, Dr Rashmi has created a calm, safe, and genuinely caring environment, which has made a real difference. It is not always easy for a teenager to open up, but her kind and non-judgmental approach has helped build trust quickly. She listens carefully, explains things clearly, and always takes the time to ensure we feel heard and involved. Her professionalism and availability are outstanding, but what truly stands out is her empathy and natural ability to connect. She is patient, reassuring, and deeply committed to helping, and her guidance has already had a positive impact. We are truly grateful for Dr Rashmi continued support and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for committed, thoughtful, and highly skilled psychiatric care.
I am pleased to endorse Dr Chakraborty, with whom I work professionally. She is a highly experienced and sought-after clinician who is consistently thorough, knowledgeable, and thoughtful in her approach. She takes time to understand the whole picture and explains options clearly, which helps families feel informed and supported. Where medication is indicated, she is careful and systematic, trying treatments sequentially to find the best balance of benefit and tolerability for each individual. Her communication is prompt and reliable, including clinical correspondence, and she builds excellent...
