Write a ReviewConsulted for stress and sleep issues. Dr Krishna K R explained everything clearly and provided practical guidance along with treatment. Felt very comfortable during the sessions.
My younger brother was going through a very difficult phase with depression and had almost stopped talking to anyone. As a family, we were helpless and didn’t know what to do. We consulted Dr Krishna K R at Manipal Hospital Mysuru after hearing he is one of the best psychiatrists in Mysuru. His approach was very calm and patient—he didn’t rush anything and slowly built trust with my brother. Over a few months, we started seeing real changes. Today, my brother is back to work and smiling again. We will always be grateful.
