Mangat, Balminder S MD

I only visited him one time. I was placed on drugs for depression that made me bump into walls and in which I lost 4 days of my life. I can't remember what happened on those days. After my husband called in a panic to see what he should do, he was informed to immediately take me off the medicine. A few days later I received a letter stating that this doctor was dropping me. .

Dr. Mangat is a great psychiatrist. He explained to me about my bipolar disorder, the medications that I will be taking and side effects that I should watch for. I appreciated the time he took with me and I never felt rushed. He explained to my family the diagnosis after asking my permission. Although he was a little hard to understand, he made sure everything was understood before I left. I would recommend Dr. Mangat to anyone that asks.

My mother recommended Dr. Mangat. She saw him before Katrina. After Katrina I found him in Bogalusa, La. He is a very compassionate doctor who listens. He is so calm and serene, taking the time to tell me a little of himself. I never felt inferior, he made me feel comfortable and relaxed. He never rushed me or handed me a handful of prescriptions with the order to make another appointment. Depression is nothing to be ashamed of, in fact I learned a lot about depression from Dr. Mangat. I would recommend Dr. Mangat to my friends and/or family if so needed.
