      My daughter has adhd and behaviour problems so her school teachers suggested to see Dr shyamala Devi mam she NEVER asked for extra tests. I was suprised how well she took the time to communicate and talk to my child . She doesn't prescribe any harmful psychatric drugs and instead without any side effects gave medicine It's close to 1 year since I met my mam and now my daughter is confident in public speaking and now is able to study well .god bless

      One of my friends is in Chennai with her husband and baby boy of 5 years old. Suddenly, her kid stopped playing with other kids of his age, stopped interacting with everyone because of some inferior issues. He got demoralised and this reflected on his academic performance. She shared it with me and after searching the famous psychologist in India near her. I told her to contact Credihealth. As adviced, she contacted Credihealth and they made an online appointment with Dr. M Shymala Devi. Thankfully, the boy is perfectly doing fine now.
