“I was very pleased at the open availability. I've been looking for a good psychologist for about a year now and anyone I have been referred to by my primary care doesn't have openings for at least 3 months. Dr. Dhatt was very nice, he answered my questions and seemed eager to get me on the right track of being "me" again.”

I personally did not like the overall experience. It was a video-visit. He is a “good listener”, but I would never book another appointment with him. I was talking to him about how I felt and how I reacted to certain situations and he laughed. If I wanted to joke around about my situation I would go to my friends, not to a psychiatrist.
