Psychiatry Department at SGVP Hospital

A psychiatrist addresses a wide range of mental health conditions, including depression, anxiety, panic disorders, personality disorders, and relationship challenges.

During an evaluation, you’ll be asked about various aspects of your life, such as childhood experiences, relationships, any traumatic events, and any history of substance use. It’s essential to answer openly and honestly to help your psychiatrist provide the best care.

Many people feel hesitant to see a psychiatrist due to societal stigma or fear of being judged. There’s often a misconception that seeking help implies weakness or severe mental illness, but psychiatry is about supporting mental well-being.
