Immediate Care Children Psychiatric Center

I have been a patient of Dr Shankar Srinivasan for 10 years. "Dr S" is very dedicated to his patients and not just a pill pusher. He also studied Social Work and this shows by his amazing bedside mannerism. He is not stuffy and sit behind some big desk like many psychiatrists. He is easy going and takes a vested interest in whole life aspects of how psychiatric illnesses exacerbate and various forms of the best complete care plan including improving quality of life through meds, counseling, IOP, public support groups, self care planning and more. Dr Srinivasan is MY ROCK. The past 8 years as his patient I have received the best care than any other psychiatrist I've ever been to and has kept me the most stable in my life as well. Do not confuse "Dr Srinivasa Rao" with "Dr Shankar Srinivasan" by their similar names. The late Dr Rao is no longer at the Immediate Cate Psychiatric Center (ICPC) and the practice is continuing on even better. This practice and Dr S have been a true life saver. Any time I have a problem I can call to be seen quickly and Dr S always makes the time to see last minute emergency situations despite having a full patient schedule. He has never let me down once. He has given me back quality of life that I can't express in words. There are many employees (reception, social workers, nurse practitioners, psychiatrists, and IOP staff for outpatient care and IOP programs for adults, women and children and more); They even offer pharmacy drug filling services. I will never leave Dr Srinivasan EVER. I apologize to those that go to see him, but if I ever move, I'd have to take "Dr S" with me! I'll never stop seeing him until the day he retires. I've never had such impeccable psychiatric care and I give the greatest of thanks for the care ICPC gives me that has changed my life! If you're looking for an excellent and qualified psychiatrist, look no further than Dr Shankar Srinivasan.

As a nurse it concerns me that this doctor is still in practice. I see another doctor in this office but took an appt w/ Dr. Rao since mine was away. Upon sitting down & telling him what meds I get from my doctor he agreed that what I said written down. Then told me the way my DR writes the scripts is illegal. I had no idea & told him that & asked how. (I expected him to tell me how it was & then we could find a way to correct it) He proceeded to tell me he was going to write them the same way my dr does & then called me a liar & accused me of knowing scripts were not written the right way all along. When I told him I have no way of knowing the correct way of writing scripts (I am not a doctor nor a pharmacist) he continued to accuse me of knowing all along. Then he told me "PATIENTS LIKE YOU MAKE OUR JOBS MISERABLE" I am thankful Im just a patient with anxiety & not someone with suicidal tendencies. After telling the office they said it was just a misunderstanding
