Psychiatry

Psychiatry and de-addiction facilities are gaining importance today as conversations around mental health continue opening up. Understanding the nuances of mental health and de-stigmatising begins with ensuring that every patient has access to superlative facilities for a range of psychological disorders and illnesses.

Asian Fidelis’ Department of Psychiatry houses some of the leading psychiatrists in Faridabad, supported by excellent, compassionate nursing staff. The department’s experts understand the care with which mental health conversations need to be handled and have numerous specialised clinics catering to these needs. We know that mental health and illness require as much care as any other physical ailment and strive to meet this need with experts in the field.

When should you visit a psychiatrist at Asian Fidelis?

While depression, anxiety, OCD etc., seem like buzzwords, they are genuine mental health problems people face worldwide. Getting help when these issues is essential for both mental and physical peace.

Therefore, you should book an appointment with a psychiatrist if you notice the following symptoms:

  • Erratic sleep patterns
  • Excessive anxiety or sadness
  • Extreme mood swings
  • Frequent nightmares
  • Lack of emotional control or stability
  • Substance use
  • Sudden change in sleeping habits
  • Sudden changes in work or school performance
  • Unexplained physical illnesses
  • Auditory or visual hallucinations
  • Withdrawing from social interactions and situations

Whether you have a mental illness or are going through a “rough patch,” visiting a psychiatrist can help clarify this for you. It is essential to seek help and treat mental illnesses as seriously as physical illnesses. Unfortunately, the lack of awareness and societal stigmas about mental health hinders patients from seeing the right medical advice. Owing to the apprehensions, the specialists understand and put forth the reasons for complete discretion and maintain absolute confidentiality.

The psychiatrists at Asian Fidelis Hospital aim to bring patients the highest quality psychological help to manage their illnesses and reduce their effects effectively!

Services Offered by Psychiatry Department at Asian Fidelis

The Department of Psychiatry at Asian Fidelis is well-equipped to cope with a wide range of mental health problems. The psychiatry specialists approach every case with the necessary care and compassion, helping alleviate symptoms for a wide range of issues.

Some of the highest quality services offered by psychiatrists at our department include the following:

  • Depression Treatment: This disabling disease affects the quality of life and daily functioning of a patient. Combining psychiatric counselling with appropriate medication helps patients out of depression’s depths.
  • Anxiety Treatment: The most prevalent mental health disorder, anxiety, presents symptoms like palpitations, sweating, breathlessness, diarrhoea, headaches, and persistent nervousness. Clinical anxiety treatment facilities are available at our centre to help ease patients’ minds.
  • Panic Disorder Treatment: Chronic panic attacks presenting as increased heart rate, breathlessness, chest pain, nausea, shaking, choking feeling, and dizziness, require in-depth counselling for effective management.
  • OCD Treatment: Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) involves repetitive thoughts or actions (compulsions) which often interfere with daily life. Managing OCD is possible with psychiatric help.
  • Phobia Treatment: While this is a common word used casually, phobias can have debilitating effects on patients. Psychiatrists at the department help manage phobias, helping patients find mechanisms to overcome the phobia rather than let it overcome them.
  • Schizophrenia Treatment: One of the most challenging illnesses to treat, psychiatrists in the department are equipped to handle long-term schizophrenic patients. Alongside the highly trained staff, our psychiatrists understand how carefully they need to approach patients with this disorder, treating them with the necessary care to ensure a better quality of life.
