Meet Dr Harneet Hundal

She was very polite and answered all my questions

Dr Hundal listened to me and quickly but with careful consideration was able to make a diagnosis. She was very polite and answered all my questions. The practice manager has also been brilliant and very quickly responds to any queries.

I felt listened to

Dr Hundal and I met to discuss a change to my ADHD medication. She sat and listened carefully, asked relevant questions, suggested a course of action, asked me a view on it and explained the next steps clearly to me. I felt listened to, that my opinion was important and that she took that into account. Seeing her after months of problems and waiting in the NHS was a real relief.

Profound knowledge of the human “brain”

Dr Hundal is extraordinary! She transmits serenity, compassion, understanding and great sense of humor! This comes of course accompanied by profound knowledge of the human "brain". I left the session secure to follow her instructions.

Dr Hundal is knowledgeable and experienced
Dr Hundal is knowledgeable and experienced. She delivers holistic care, taking social, heritage and environmental factors into account during the initial assessment and recommendations. At follow up, she listened to my daughter's concerns regarding medication side effects and helped her decide the next course of action. We thought stopping the stimulant was the right thing to do after having only 10 doses. It was good to be guided by Doctor who reassured that she should give it time to work and allowed the body to adapt. Allowing shared decision and providing guidance are important elements of the service that we value. Harley Mind Care manager Min - an absolute treasure to the service. Our rating: 5 stars for Dr Hundal. 5 stars for the Practice Manager Min.

Dr Gandluru was extremely professional and empathetic.
Dr Gandluru was extremely professional and empathetic. Our teenage daughter, who is generally very guarded and unwilling to talk to strangers about herself, said that she felt fully at ease with her and really enjoyed their conversation. Dr Gandluru also took the time to listen carefully to our views, concerns and experiences, and, when she had made her diagnosis, to explain the next steps in our daughter's treatment. We cannot thank Dr Gandluru enough, as we all now feel that there is a new beginning ahead of us and are excited about the future. We are also very grateful to the clinic's manager, whose communication was always prompt and helpful. We would highly recommend this practice, as it is clear that professional knowledge, and patient care, support and wellbeing are at the very core of their ethos.

Helped me identify couple forms of therapy!
I have had a great experience talking with Dr Hundal and Liz. They both were very easy to talk to, and helped me identify couple forms of therapy like EMDR and exposure therapy which I believe everybody can benefit from. I highly recommend this clinic compared to other options I personally evaluated .

Person-centred approach to your care!
Excellent service from Min & Dr Hundal. Would highly recommend if you want a person-centred approach to your care. I have been under the mental health service and had a lot of psychiatrists over the years- this is definitely the best experience I’ve had.

This decision has been life-changing!
Our son was having difficulties at school with work and concentration, and It was suggested that he may have ADHD. After weeks of wasted time and energy trying to get an NHS appointment for my son, I decided to go private. This truly was a wise decision for my son. From the outset, the Practice Manager was amazing in helping arrange an appointment with Dr Geetha Gandluru. The manager made the whole process seamless, and Dr Gandluru is caring, empathetic and truly an expert in what she does. We will always be grateful for the care and attention Harley Mind Care has given us. I can say with confidence this decision has been life-changing for my son, who is now looking for a career in Accountancy.

We do not want to “lose” you
Dear Dr Hundal, It was a real pleasure to meet you on the screen and thank you for your time and good discussion. We thought of our discussion and wanted to raise a few points: - we trust you and want to follow your advice. We liked your methodical, thorough and caring approach - treating a patient with the dignity they deserve as a human being - as well as exploring all avenues to try and find out the origin of the problem. -  we are willing to pay for the services of a psychotherapist or other professionals that you deem necessary. - the most important thing for us is to have you lead the case. In very simple terms, we do not want to "lose" you :)))) Thank you, again!

My son and I trust her implicitly!
Dr Gandluru is Kind , compassionate, empathetic and very knowledgeable on a whole range of neurodevelopmental conditions and needs , she always has the right words and practical advice to aid in any difficult situation.  My son and I trust her implicitly with his care, treatments and recommendations.  My son does not trust and open up easily and can find interaction with health professionals difficult and mask however this is not the case with her she sees the real child due to her exceptional  interpersonal skills with young  people and their parents. Dr Gandluru listens and involves my son and I in all aspects of treatment options, she is holistic.  Dr Gandluru is a Dr that really cares and is passionate that's what sets her apart from other Drs and professionals. Thank you for everything Dr Gandluru we wouldn't be where we are without all that you have supported us with

Very Experienced
I really appreciated that Dr. Hundal took the time to listen to me, even going over the allotted time on my appointment to make sure I felt heard. Dr. Hundal is clearly very experienced and was such a reassuring presence throughout the appointment, despite me being a bit nervous beforehand. I also appreciate that she shared information about treatment besides medication, and was so supportive of whatever path I chose to take.
