Dr Shyamal Mashru

Written by a patient at Psychiatry-UK

Super informative and helpful with excellent quality of information and guidance provided. I felt listened to and my health concerns taken seriously and understood, which is an experience I don't often receive from medical professionals. I felt comfortable to talk openly about my medical history, my experiences and my concerns. I now feel more confident and hopeful about future treatment and being able to move forward with my health concerns.

The specific issue I sought help for was addressed, believed and diagnosed straight away which was a great experience and very validating. Dr Mashru is very personable and the session felt very relaxed which helps greatly since seeking help for psychiatric issues can be intimidating. My only critque is that other problems areas which were stated to give a brief idea of the whole picture, were quickly dismissed despite the fact that they had not been discussed any where close to enough for them to be dismissed. This could just be due to language used for example, instead of outright saying in an initial appointment "no I don't think ____", using language that says instead that perhaps there could be more to it than the patient thinks or other avenues are more common with patients with ____ but it is something that requires more discussion. Shutting it down straight away just because it might be something else doesnt negate the experience and intensity so it can feel a bit invalidating

I was very nervous about my appointment however Dr Mashru was very kind and helped me through the whole process. It didn't feel like an ordinary doctors appointment but more of a balanced conversation where my medical history and views were respected as well as taken into consideration. I would definitely recommend Dr Mashru!

My assessment with Dr Shyamal Mashru was clear, informative, calm and reassuring. I was anxious that an assessment for adult ADHD would feel like an interrogation, and was nervous that I wouldn't remember everything I wanted to say or ask. I had nothing to worry about, as the whole session felt more like a chat. Dr Mashru explained clearly the basic facts behind ADHD, and when it came to diagnosis and potential medication, he answered all my questions directly and without judgement. I appreciated his approach, and felt reassured that I had been right to seek an assessment. Would happily recommend.
