Psychiatry

Mental, emotional and behavioral disorders are dealt with at Lotus Hospital. These disorders include mal-adaptations associated with a person’s mood, behavior, perceptions and cognition. An initial psychiatric assessment typically involves the patient’s case history and a mental status examination. This may be followed by physical examinations and psychological tests. Some cases may require neuroimaging or other kinds of neurophysiological techniques. Each case is unique and will typically require a personalized treatment plan.
