Ask for a Current Fee, Not an Assumed Price
If you are searching for the best neuro psychiatrist in Kolkata, the consultation fee is a practical question. A useful answer needs to come from the clinic you plan to visit, and you are welcome to ask us. Do not rely on an old listing, a review or a fee quoted for a different doctor or service.
We offer neuropsychiatric assessment, general psychiatry, psychotherapy, counselling and IQ testing. These are different services. Confirm which appointment you need, which professional will see you and what the quoted amount includes before booking.
This page does not publish an unverified price or imply that the most expensive consultation is the best. The aim is to help you get a clear, case-specific explanation of the cost.
What exactly are you booking?
Ask whether the appointment is a first psychiatric assessment, a follow-up, counselling or a separate psychological assessment. The service name matters because a general consultation quote does not tell you the cost of every possible part of care.
Our care process considers the person’s symptoms, history, physical health and mental state. Further investigation may be recommended when appropriate. Do not assume all tests, reports or other services are included in a consultation fee.
First visit and follow-up questions
Ask us whether we have different arrangements for an initial visit and later appointments. Confirm how follow-ups are booked and whether any review of reports needs another appointment. These are questions to resolve with us, not reasons to assume an extra charge will apply.
It can help to bring previous prescriptions, relevant reports and a list of current medicines. This gives the clinician useful context. It does not guarantee a particular diagnosis, treatment or appointment length.
Online and in-person appointments
We offer both in-person and online consultations. Ask whether the format is suitable for your situation, what is required to join the appointment and whether the fee or payment arrangements differ.
A remote appointment should not be selected on price alone. Some concerns need in-person assessment or another service. Discuss suitability with us, especially if you are unsure what type of help is needed.
Keep consultation costs separate from other care
Ask whether the quote covers only the consultation. If medication, a test, psychotherapy or another appointment is recommended, request the relevant details before agreeing. Do not assume a single payment covers an entire course of care.
Likewise, a recommendation for a test should be explained clinically, not treated as a standard package that every patient must buy. We provide individualized assessment and care planning. The next step should fit the person.
What does the fee tell you about quality?
Price alone cannot establish whether a psychiatrist is suitable. Look for an appropriate assessment, clear explanations, relevant experience and a care plan you understand. Avoid making a choice solely from a promotional claim that one doctor is the best.
Ask who will see you and what kind of concerns they assess. We care for children, adolescents, adults and older people, with psychiatric and psychological support. Confirm the appropriate professional and appointment type for your situation.
Questions worth asking before payment
Ask for the current consultation fee and what it includes. Confirm the clinician, appointment format and whether this is an initial visit or follow-up. Ask how any recommended tests or other services are priced separately.
Clarify our rescheduling, cancellation and payment arrangements before you pay. Do not assume a missed appointment is refundable or that an online listing reflects today’s policy. Keep the appointment confirmation and receipt.
If you have a limited budget, explain that clearly and ask us what options we can offer. This is more useful than silently skipping follow-up or changing medication because of an assumed cost.

A clear quote makes the next step easier
When looking for the best neuro psychiatrist in Kolkata, start with a suitable assessment and a current, itemized explanation of costs. Confirm the appointment with us rather than relying on an outdated listing.
Match the appointment to the concern
We care for psychiatric disorders and neuropsychiatric disorders, including anxiety disorders, bipolar disorder and mood disorders. Our treatment areas also include obsessive-compulsive disorder, post-traumatic stress disorder, autism spectrum disorder and sleep challenges. This service description does not diagnose the person or establish a price for any of these concerns. Ask which neuro psychiatrist or other professional is appropriate and what assessment is proposed.
Psychiatric symptoms can affect mood, concentration, sleep and everyday functioning. Give the clinician a clear account of the psychiatric symptoms you have noticed and any previous care. When discussing psychiatric symptoms, separate your observations from a diagnosis you found online. Mental health care should begin with an appropriate assessment, not a fee comparison based on an assumed condition.
Check the clinician and care plan details
Our team includes consultant psychiatrists Dr. Sankar Prasad Mukherjee, with MBBS, MSc in Psychology and DPM qualifications, and Dr. Sila Mukherjee, with MBBS and DPM qualifications. We also provide clinical psychology support. Confirm the doctor’s name and current appointment availability directly. Published doctor details help identify the professional, but a listing alone does not confirm a particular appointment or justify an unsupported ranking.
Ask how psychiatric disorders or neuropsychiatric disorders are assessed and how the resulting care plan will be explained. If medicines are recommended, ask about medication management, follow-up and any separate costs. Medication management should be discussed with the treating professional; do not change prescribed treatment based on a budget assumption. The neuro psychiatrist should be able to explain why a recommendation fits the individual rather than treating all psychiatric symptoms as the same problem.
