Dr Rashmi Chakraborty is kind, caring, professional, and helpful with patients. She gives clear explanations and listens, making a calm, safe place for children and young people. Her expert and supportive approach helps patients with background issues and other concerns. Her work includes treating conditions like anxiety, depression, and ADHD, often with specific medication.
Dr Chakraborty is an exceptional clinician. She is extremely knowledgeable, thorough and professional, but also wonderfully kind, patient and approachable. She has a lovely manner with children, putting them at ease and taking the time to listen, understand their individual needs and make them feel comfortable. Her communication is excellent, and she is always prompt, thoughtful and helpful in her responses. What particularly stands out is her genuine commitment to the children and families she works with. She consistently goes the extra mile, and it is clear that she really cares about achieving the best possible outcomes for her patients. I have been enormously impressed by her clinical expertise, compassion and dedication, and would recommend her without hesitation.
Dr Chakraborty was friendly, kind and professional. She put myself and my son immediately at ease. We found her to be warm and understanding and if we didn’t understand the way she asked a question she just re-worded it for us. Communication was clear and we had the chance to ask as many questions as we wanted to and the offer of being able to email if we had any additional questions. The offer for further support was also there. We would definitely recommend Dr Chakraborty’s services and she would be our first choice if we need help in the future.
As always Dr Chakraborty listened carefully and made my daughter feel valued and understood.
I cannot recommend this psychiatrist highly enough. From our very first appointment, we felt listened to, understood and genuinely supported. Their knowledge, compassion and understanding of ADHD and autism in young people is exceptional. They have a wonderful ability to make both young people and parents feel comfortable, reassured and completely at ease, without ever feeling judged or dismissed. What really sets them apart is their attention to detail, patience and genuinely caring approach. They take the time to listen, explain everything clearly and ensure that decisions are made collaboratively, always with the young person’s wellbeing at the heart of everything. Finding a psychiatrist who combines such outstanding professional expertise with warmth, kindness and empathy is invaluable. We are incredibly grateful for the care and support we have received. It has made such a positive difference to our family, and I would wholeheartedly recommend them to any parent seeking exceptional psychiatric care for their child.

Our experience with Dr. Rashim has been wonderful. She took the time to genuinely listen to us and thoroughly addressed all of our concerns regarding medication. Most importantly, my son felt completely comfortable opening up to her without any fear of being judged.
It was a remote assessment. Dr Chakraborty is always very kind and professional. We are very happy with the support given to our daughter and the progress she had made. Thank you.
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.
