    She is the best psychiatrist I have ever been with. She likes working with patients instead of just blowing the information out of her ears. She listens to you and helps with medication and problems with life. I highly recommend her as a top notch doctor. She is definitely worth the money and time. I've been seeing her for 8 years and she is the best.

    I have the greatest respect for Dr Varma. She provides an excellent diagnostic service and is very thorough and knowledgeable about treatment. You will likely work with a separate therapist after the initial diagnosis is complete. She believes in setting firm boundaries and is not afraid to deny requests for certain medications. I find her to be extremely helpful and professional. I recommend her highly. She helped me a lot.

    Dr Varma helped me deal with all the responsibilities with being a working mother. She is easy to reach by email anytime I have a problem. I was under so much stress when I first saw her and now I can manage my days. My anxiety is lower and I no longer have panic attacks. She saved my life and marriage with very good advice and manages medication carefully. I would give 10 stars if possible. I have referred her to my Bunco friends!

    Dr. Varma has been an incredible help with a family member of mine. She takes time to find the root cause of the situation and work with the patient (and family) to find a path forward. It seems to be more and more difficult to find Doctors who show this level of care these days and I am very much grateful for her services and high level of expertise!

    Dr Varma pretty much saved my life. Yes, itโ€™s expensive, but itโ€™s worth it to actually enjoy life and not just cry all day and be miserable. Iโ€™ve been seeing her for almost 9 years and itโ€™s the best investment I ever made. When I emailed for the initial appointment, I heard back right away and was able to get in that same day. She helped me get out of an abusive situation and change my life for the better. She accepts you for who you are. If thereโ€™s something she thinks you should change but you donโ€™t want to or arenโ€™t ready, sheโ€™s not going to nag you about it. You are the one in charge of yourself and she respects that.

    I went to Dr Varma for chronic nausea due to anxiety. For the first time in 7+ years I have been able to find relief, and I am very grateful for her service. I would definitely recommend Dr Varma to anyone seeking psychiatric help.

    We've had the pleasure of working with Dr. Varma and our teen son over the past 18 months. She did a great job of learning him, his environment, the mirage of treatments over time and understanding where he was previously. She then talked in a more future direction and helped us to wean off of legacy medications and get him focused on his journey to college. She worked hard to be conversationally relevant to the kids without overdoing it. As we head off to college, we were very pleased with the foundation we've collectively poured to enable his success!

    Dr. Varma is incredible at what she does. I have been seeing her over a year and she has helped me immensely with my anxiety and other mental health issues. I was not expecting to have a psychiatrist who takes a holistic approach to treatment, but that is exactly what Dr. Varma does. I've learned so many new techniques to deal with anxiety and many other things.

    Dr Varma is an amazing doctor. I started taking my daughter to her for about 5 years. She literally saved my daughter. My daughter had severe anxiety and depression, with Dr Varmaโ€™s help she has improved dramatically and is doing wonderfully.

    Dr. Varma has changed my life for the better! She is so dedicated and compassionate and truly listens to you. If Iโ€™m having an emergency sheโ€™ll get me in the same day, even if it means she stays late to do so. Dr. Varma has helped me so much with overcoming my anxiety and gaining a confidence in myself that I never thought Iโ€™d have. Iโ€™m forever grateful for the continuous help and support from Dr. Varma, she has helped me take back control over my life, and I finally feel alive and happy again.

    I got in within 2 days! She writes a summary at the end of every appointment so I don't forget what we discussed. Easily available between appointments. She is efficient and goal oriented. Much more effective than my previous psychiatrists and therapists. I wish I had found her sooner!

    I feel so much better since I started to see Dr. Varma for depression: less feelings of despair, hopelessness and rage. She is solution-oriented and knowledgeable. She listens to my concerns and provides me with practical ways of tackling them long term.

    I was struggling with adjusting to college level academics and Dr.Varma was extremely helpful in finding a solution with not just medication but helped instill a schedule that then helped me excel the last semester. She also helped me with a financial aid appeal and I would not have been successful without her.

    Iโ€™ve been seeing dr. Varma since I was 13 and Iโ€™m now 18. When I started seeing her my anxiety was so bad I could barely leave my house. Because of her treatment plan Iโ€™ve been able to start driving, get my Ged, and she referred me to a fantastic psychologist when I started experiencing symptoms of ocd.

    I need to set up an appointment. Are used to see doctor Bansal at A Ray of Hope. Up until their nurse Brian used excessive force I have problems sitting still, he wrenched his right hand around my left wrist, I don't like being made to feel uncomfortable when I'm going to see someone that I pay to help me understand. I saw it in his eyes. It doesn't like me, and he always had this attitude that made me feel like I wasn't welcome there.
