Looking for a mental health doctor, depression doctor or anxiety specialist? A psychiatrist is the medical term for a mental health doctor who diagnoses and treats conditions like depression, anxiety, stress, panic attacks, bipolar disorder, OCD, schizophrenia and addiction. Unlike psychologists, psychiatrists are medical doctors who can prescribe medication. Many patients also seek a psychiatrist for sleep problems, relationship issues or work-related stress. In India, a qualified mental health doctor holds MBBS followed by MD (Psychiatry). For severe mental health conditions, look for a psychiatrist affiliated with a hospital that has inpatient psychiatric care. Many psychiatrists also offer online consultations.

Jaipur is Rajasthan's primary healthcare hub, serving patients from across the state and neighbouring Gujarat, Haryana and Madhya Pradesh. The city has seen significant growth in specialist care over the past decade, with a strong network of private hospitals and experienced practitioners covering most major medical specialties. For patients in north-west India, Jaipur is increasingly a preferred alternative to Delhi for specialist consultations.
