In Our Patients' Words
Our Reviews
Choosing a psychiatrist is a personal decision, and hearing from people who have already made that decision can help. Below are reviews left by our patients on Google, shared exactly as they were written. They reflect what matters most to us: that people feel heard, supported, and genuinely involved in their own care.
Every review below was written by a real patient on our Google Business Profile. We do not edit them, and we do not pick and choose only the perfect ones. If you would like to see the full and current set, including anything posted since this page was last updated, you can read them all directly on Google.
If we have cared for you, sharing your experience helps other people in San Diego and North County decide whether to take that first step toward psychiatric care. We are grateful for every patient who takes the time.

What Patients Say About Psychiatric Wellness Center
Reviews from our Google Business Profile, shared as written.
Practice is well organized and responds quickly. Intake and other docs were easy to navigate. Telehealth link came promptly and the appointment was connected effortlessly. Dr. Kharkar was knowledgeable, easy-going, and friendly. Highly recommend!!
Dr. Kharkar is smart, thoughtful, and very capable, with a warm, approachable style that immediately puts you at ease. She's clear and direct while still being kind and collaborative. I felt truly heard and supported, and I left my appointment feeling confident and cared for. An excellent psychiatrist who balances expertise with genuine human connection.
Dr Kharkar was patient, thorough, and friendly during my sister’s intake interviews. She listened carefully and made excellent recommendations/changes as to my sister’s medication needs. I appreciated her care and caution.
I had my first in-person visit with Dr. Kharkar and felt comfortable right from the start. She is warm, welcoming, and highly professional. She was very thorough, truly listened, and took a thoughtful, collaborative approach when creating a starting point for my treatment plan. I left feeling heard, supported, and confident moving forward. Highly recommend.
Dr. Kharhur is amazing. She took the time to truly listen, understand my concerns, and offer thoughtful guidance that felt tailored to my needs. Having to find a new Dr. is always stressful and peeks my anxiety but I never felt rushed or dismissed. Her insight, compassion, and professionalism made a real difference. Highly recommend.
I am so happy to have found Dr Kharkar! She is wonderful. She listened to me and we were able to come up with a plan that will serve me well. She is kind and so attentive as well as empathetic and so understanding. Highly recommend her.
