Dr. Rajan tackles this complexity head‘on by first building a trusting relationship, allowing patients to feel comfortable sharing their concerns.

This comprehensive evaluation helps him pinpoint the exact nature of the disorder, rule out other medical contributors, and identify any co‘existing conditions.

For patients with severe mood disorders or psychosis, he employs a step‘wise approach”starting with low doses and titrating as needed, always keeping the patient’s safety and comfort first.
