Depression is an insidious and difficult, disabling disease that affects every aspect of life. Early and robust treatment with a strong emphasis on underlying stressors causing the depression is key. Not every patient needs medication; unfortunately, most patients wait too long and develop severe depression, making it necessary to employ all treatment avenues.

What she has done to me, when I was at your hospital is not fair. Ask for forgiveness to our Lord Jesus Christ. Correct your mistake! God is angry with all. Because you misused God’s child (me😢). You failed everyone! My Friend is not with me! because of you El Camino! 😡 Not fair! Stop 🛑 forcing people! Simran! You are no Doctor! You are a Con person living in my Father’s land!

Straight-up - Dr. Singh is an abusive, cruel, and traumatizing doctor. My daughter a year ago underwent her "care" at the El Camino Hospital inpatient psychiatric unit. I spoke to her on several occasions on the phone as well, and she was incredibly rude, VERY condescending, and raised her voice with me. My daughter endured the same and worse. Dr. Singh threatened to claim she was "non-compliant" and "dangerously impulsive," on her record even though she was not, basically making it impossible to find a new doctor, even though an appointment with one is required in

If I could give no star, I would. This doctor is incompetent, arrogant and has really bad bedside manner. My father was under her care for a few weeks. She first misdiagnosed my father's condition, and refused to listen after we repeatedly told her the potential cause, which turns out to be the the reason of my father's condition. After we asked for change the doctor for a new emerging symptom which she couldn't figure out the cause, she threatened that we need to pay ourselves if we want to stay in hospital to talk to another doctor and kicked my father out of the hospital the next

I saw her two years ago and have been so disturbed by that few months of treatment that this is the first time I am coming back to it.
Dr Singh put me on two medications she said would help. When after six weeks I didn't report being entirely better, she added another medication she would not describe the purpose of. She also told me I needed to go to a partial hospitalization program for anxiety. I told her I would think about it. Over the next two weeks, after having consulted with my psychologist, I repeated that I would not attend the partial hospitalization program. She tried to blackmail

Dr Singh has changed my life for the better. I took two group therapy classes from her in cognitive behavioral therapy. Her feedback was much needed. She speaks with authority and treats people with respect. I finally feel like my habits and behaviors are changing for the better after suffering from extreme anxiety for many years. I will be forever grateful for her strength and guidance.

I saw this physician once this week and I will never go back again. She treated me like I was a fool and she was the master of all. I do not know if this is the same Simran Singh other bad reviews have been written but she deserves to be fired. She does not listen, she has a low level skill base, bad temper, and to boot she has no memory of what was just told her. Why would I want to torture myself just to get an anti-depressant? She is a pox on the Palo Alto Medical Foundation.
