Dr Sidharth Sood - AIIMS-trained DM Addiction Psychiatrist and faculty educator

How I Teach

Psychiatry is often taught as theory.

But real understanding comes from:

  • Clinical patterns – Real-world scenarios and clinical decision-making
  • Brain-based explanations – Understanding the neuroscience behind disorders
  • Real patient experiences – De-identified case discussions from practice

My focus is to simplify complex concepts into practical understanding that can be applied in real life and clinical settings.
