It is a great privilege and honour for me to lead the department of psychiatry GMC, Amritsar as a Head. Our department is pioneer in providing mental health and drug deaddiction services in a general hospital setting. The department runs a regular OPD, in patient services, psychosocial interventions, consultation liaison and emergency psychiatry services. In addition to medical management, psychotherapy sessions, biofeedback and modified ECT are routinely provided.

Our vision is to promote mental health, neurosciences, behavioral and allied sciences through multidisciplinary patient care. We are enthusiastically working to develop highly trained manpower, curriculum and techniques for under graduate and post graduate medical education. The goal is to provide culturally competent, holistic and wellness focused services that address socio-emotional problems that currently exist and prevent development of mental health challenges.
