Confidential, compassionate assessment and coordinated care for mental-health and substance-use concerns.
Mangala Hospital's Psychiatry & Rehabilitation Centre provides confidential care for mental-health emergencies and longer-term emotional, behavioural and dependency-related concerns. The department is led by Dr. Shivaram Karikal, trained in the UK, with Dr. Anil Kakunje, MD, trained at NIMHANS.
Care may include psychiatric assessment, counselling, psychotherapy, medication management and structured support for alcohol or drug dependence. Outpatient and inpatient pathways help provide continuity for conditions that need regular review.
For an immediate mental-health crisis, contact the hospital emergency number or come directly to Casualty. You do not have to face this alone.
