Shabbir Chowdhury, MD - CAROLINA PSYCHIATRY, PC

My daughter had a sudden episode of panic that spiraled very quickly. Dr Chowdhury was able to make an emergency appointment for her on a Friday evening at that! Anyone who has had panic for the first time knows how hard it is to get in with a psychiatrist, and most practices have no emergency options which is tragic. It’s hard to be an established patient when it’s your first episode. Unfortunately, in my opinion, mental health in this country isn’t taken seriously enough. Your only option is to go the ER which can do absolutely nothing for panic and anxiety. He was very knowledgeable and thorough. I felt very trusting with his experience, which eased my mind in placing someone in the care of my 17 year old daughter experiencing such a fragile state. I felt desperate to help her, and when a whole days worth of phone calls found nobody that would, I’m glad we found a fortunate situation with Dr Chowdhury!

I definitely recommend Dr Chowdury. He has brought me from the point of being suicidal after the death of my parents to now, where I feel great and love being alive. To me, the best thing about Dr Chowdury is that he wants to understand how I’m feeling. He asks questions and listens when I need to explain myself. That’ is the big difference between a good doctor and a great one. Dr Chowdury sincerely cares about his patients. I’m glad that he knew how to treat my condition without overmedicating me. I appreciate all he’s done for me.

They are great! Understanding and helpful with medications that work best for you!
