I saw Dr. Das during a pretty difficult period and honestly wasn’t expecting much after a few bad experiences with psychiatrists before. What stood out was how thorough and thoughtful he was. He didn’t rush the appointment, didn’t jump to conclusions, and actually explained the reasoning behind his impressions and recommendations in a way that made sense. He’s very knowledgeable but also practical. I never felt talked down to or dismissed. He asked detailed questions, picked up on patterns other doctors had overlooked, and gave me a treatment plan that felt individualized instead of generic. He also balanced medication discussions with lifestyle, therapy, sleep, stress, and overall functioning, which I appreciated. What I respected most was that he was honest. If he agreed with something, he explained why. If he didn’t, he explained that too without being defensive or arrogant. You can tell he takes his work seriously and puts a lot of thought into complex cases. Not the type of psychiatrist who just writes a prescription and sends you out the door. Very professional, very sharp, and probably one of the more insightful physicians I’ve dealt with.

I am a teacher. I was mandated to see Dr. Debarsi for an Independent Medical Exam prescribe by my school board. My ex husband went to my Principal with medical and legal documents only a few days after our daughter assaulted me; he decided for me how to tell my story. My principal and I had been at odds for many years, but my reputation was until this point stellar. She reported that I was weird, couldn't hold a cognitive fact for a whole year, I "refused to eat with staff", I was "gaunt and pale", I terrorized my co-workers etc...Mean girl antics. There are more mean girl antics in HR as well, apparently. The school board initiated a Psych assessment citing the Education Act as their safety mechanism. Dr. Das was the first one to accuse me of the above "crazy things". When I asked why I didn't get a copy of my accusations, he smiled sweetly and said, "Well, you might have pre-prepared your answers." Yes, and so? I shouldn't have been blind sighted. I had a diagnosed concussion with amnesia, but an accusation of mental illness. Of course, on the "balance of statistics and probability", Dr. Das made a quick buck (thousands?), and determined that I had "limited insight" as he didn't agree with my account of events the night I was assaulted. Dr. Das had a neurology IME to reference and chose not to. If you are neurodivergent or gifted and talented in any way, shape, or form-- I would NOT see Dr. Das. He also grilled me intensely about narcotics; I found this inappropriate. It was as if he derives pleasure from "getting to the bottom of things by any words and methods necessary". I filed a complaint with his licensing body (am waiting on the findings). He deemed me unfit to work...I think my disdain for his profession coloured his finding...he made note of it. How many others have had this experience, but are too embarassed to write a review? Please research a psychiatrist who follows updated and recent research practices instead of Dr. Das-- it is always good practice to connect with a psychologist before going straight to a prescribing / drug peddler-- you may avoid this kind of emotional hardship if you do. Please note: I have had 5 psych / neuro-psych consults before and after this one with Dr. Das, and he was the only one who did not think I was fit for work...he was paid by the school board. The math does not add up-- statistics and probabilities aside. I am anomalous according to HIS metrics....in my classroom, this is celebrated as diversity. His conduct is criminal in my humble opinion.

I met with Dr Das twice now after being referred to him by my Dr. I have been struggling with depression for years and even on the highest doses of anti depressants, anxiety meds and therapy, it wasn't working. I finally met with Dr Das for our first session and it was very informative for me. I filled a very long questionnaire before the appointment and when I sat with him he started asking the questions that changed my life! He was very thorough and asked about every single detail in my life. I didn't know how this would help in my diagnosis. Yes he did repeat the question of "Do you think normal people act like this or have this kind of reaction?'" but it was never to be-little me but to try to understand how i see/react in situations. I have never cried this hard in my life in front of a person I just met less than an hour ago but it was a cry of relief not hurt. He managed to explain every situation/reaction I've had in my life where I was confused. All my answers started to agree with his questions and behold! After exposing all my darkest secrets and a lot of crying, I finally had a diagnosis. Knowing what was wrong with me after mentally struggling so much felt like I came out for air after drowning. I can never thank him enough for helping me understand my issues and helping me with becoming the real me after so long! My second encounter with him was a year later where I had to have another session with him to find that sweet spot where life is rosy and peachy again and he helped me to get there. Honestly, he was 20 minutes late for my appointment but it is because he gives the patient in front of him the time that the patient needs and never rushes you to leave to stay on time for his schedule. I am grateful for his insight and for helping me get to the light at the end of the tunnel. Thank you Dr Das.

I cannot say enough good things about this doctor. I've been seen by several other psychiatrists through the years; but this one was actually able to diagnosis me after many years of struggle. I can finally say that I'm in control of my mental health now... and I am working on moving forward with the information I was provided with by Dr. Das. For this, I cannot thank him enough.

I was referred to Dr. Das from my family doctor regarding a possible ADHD diagnosis. At first, Dr. Das made some sense - I went home, did a significant amount of research around my symptoms and symptoms of ADHD. There were definitely a lot of parallels in what he was saying. However, he did come to the appointment an hour late - and unfortunately, nobody told me this could occur, so I had not taken much time away from work for this appointment, and certainly not to accommodate an extra hour of waiting. During the phone call, Dr. Das was very professional, kind, answered some of my questions. But he called me an addict regarding my cannabis usage - nevermind that I work in the addictions field, never experience a craving for cannabis, or withdrawals. Purely to prove a point, I have been without Cannabis since Nov 2025. Dr. Das SHOULD NOT be using certain language that can be stigmatizing to people and their medical charts. As a psychiatrist, I wish he would open the diagnostic criteria of addiction and relearn some of what that DSM does say. He also made an observation that i was fidgety in the appointment.... it was a phone appointment. So that is quite interesting. He also tried using my behavior prior to the phone call as a method of symptomology - after waiting 45 minutes, I had called his front desk to inquire if the doctor was attending our appointment - which I feel is very normal. I booked time away from work, I stepped out of work, the least one can do is respect an appointment time. He tried to explain that me calling his office with this specific inquiry was a symptom of ADHD. IT ABSOLUTELY IS NOT!! I was impatient from waiting, and anxious in wondering if my appointment would happen before I had to be summoned back to work. Unfortunately, I still feel his initial diagnosis was incorrect. I even challenged his original diagnosis because I said, "ADHD sounds like a blanket term for doctors who cannot commit to more than 1-hour of an assessment to understand one's symptoms and mental process." He explained in a much more convoluted way, that we are still learning about ADHD. I understand that because of my field, but what I don't understand is how so many things can look and feel like ADHD, but when I challenge a psychiatrist, why am I not respected enough to explore the presenting problem instead of re-diagnosing me with something different. Since going on new meds, I feel absolutely no change whatsoever. Had even had my dosage increased and dealt with a migraine for 8 days. Still no change. I don't believe this is any fault of Dr. Das; I wish he did listen to me further and heard me out before suggesting ADHD, calling me an addict, telling me i was fidgeting and impatient for the appointment. Do not try and package your unprofessional tardiness on a symptom that concludes to a new diagnosis. I wish he heard me further; I wish he explored the presenting problem further; and I wish I had never gone on ADHD meds. I truly do not think I have ADHD. I think unfortunately, Dr Das has worked around ADHD too much and everything is going to feel like it is ADHD. Very kind, but could be refined. And please acknowledge, that you can challenge a psychiatrist!! This was an example of a doctor getting it wrong, and that is ok.

I just had my first appointment with Dr. Das, and it was the single greatest level of care that I have ever received for my mental health and well being. My appointment was significantly late, which I assume was because he gave the person before me the level of care that they needed, regardless of how long it took. He did not rush my appointment, and actually stayed late after the office closed to make sure that I was well taken care of, well beyond my appointment allocation. I went in looking for help regarding my suspected ADHD/Autism challenges and had low hopes for getting timely help based on experiences with other doctors. He asked very thorough and insightful questions, and was able to explain many of the challenges that I have that I felt didn't quite fit the diagnosis I had previously. He was so thorough in reviewing my previous history, making notes and then following up on those notes later in the session. Much more so than any doctor I have ever visited. My appointment with him was so incredibly validating and I am excited to have a real path forward. I specifically chose him after reading the comments because I wanted someone who was going to give me honest, no nonsense help. While that was the case, he was also incredibly friendly and kind. Anyone saying otherwise in the comments I strongly feel just isn't ready to accept the diagnosis that they need and are lashing out at the one who gave it to them. Thank you so much Dr. Das!

I was diagnosed with Adhd over the phone back in 2022 by Dr Das and it was a dehumanizing experience. I told him how I was able to do certain activities and jobs because the way my brain works makes me more able to perform better due to the fast paced nature etc. He told me "this is because you are ill and you need medicine". The way this doctor views a different neurotype as an illness or disorder is disgusting and made me feel sad and uncomfortable. I cant imagine him saying this to someone more fragile than me. Someone like this should NOT be diagnosing adhd or mental health issues.

I was referred to Dr Das for a possible ADHD diagnosis. I was very nervous at the beginning of the call but Dr Das was understanding and very patient with me. He didn't make me feel inferior like other doctors have in the past. He was very knowledgeable and made sure I understood each step we went through before moving on. I had trouble putting some of my thoughts into words so he helped me out at times by prompting me, with my permission, which helped tremendously. At the end of the session I felt heard for the first time, informed, and grateful for step by step instructions on how he is going to write my care plan to my physician.

Dr. Das’s depth of knowledge was clear from the start. He was patient and kind, answered my questions clearly, and provided straightforward guidance for treatment and next steps. I left feeling informed and confident about my care plan and am grateful for his help.

Great dr. Saw him a couple times and he really helped me out and got my mental health to where it needs to be. Straight to the point. Amazing meetings I had with him.
