Dr. Steve Shaw

We found Dr. Yadhu to be kind, compassionate, and efficient in equal measure.Unlike some other medics, he made sure to take the time to make the patient feel at ease, fully investigate the root causes of the psychological problems with a sense of empathy, accuracy and sensitivity, and eventually administer the medication with professionalism and efficiency.At a time when the medical profession is under assault from all sides, it is reassuring to see that in this corner of the world, the highest of standards are being maintained.Thank you for helping this patient get their life back.Update 1 - 4 weeksDr. Yadhu continues to maintain a high level of kindness and professionalism; the ketamine treatment continues to be administered with efficiency and sensitivity; the clinic continues to treat patients with empathy and integrity. Thumbs up from this patient.Update 2 - 6 weeksDr. Yadhu continues to operate with a unique combination of empathy and professionalism. As a result the ketamine infusions are proceeding with a high degree of mindful and sophisticated patient centred management. Consequently, I can only continue to recommend wholeheartedly.Update 3We are now several months into treatment at the clinic, and it is reassuring to report that the clinic continues to operate with a high level of professionalism and empathy. During the Christmas period we received a top up treatment of ketamine with the usual level of efficiency and sensitivity.As is Dr. Yadhu’s way, he is keen to ensure that he builds up a holistic view of the patient's needs whilst administering the treatment. The end result is a seamless treatment session.Excellent.Update 4The ketamine treatment continues to have a positive effect. Dr. Yadhu is as professional and empathic as ever, and continues to ensure that the sessions run smoothly and in a stress free environment.As ever, excellent.Update5: 6 monthsThe ongoing ketamine treatment continues to provide powerful relief from OCD without any of the side effects of SSRIs. In the meantime, this, combined with the empathy and professionalism of Dr. Yadhu means that Save Minds continues to provide unique and powerful relief from OCD. Thumbs up.Update 6: 8 monthsThe ketamine infusions continue to be a life saver, allowing me to handle my OCD with much more clarity and self awareness. The upshot is that I have started to make progress in a way that no SSRI ever allowed. Excellent. Further to this, the empathic nature of Dr. Yadhu continues to make this an overall seamless and highly intuitive treatment regime.

I have nothing but the highest praise for Dr. Yadhu and the staff of Save Minds.I first visited the clinic in June 2023, after struggling for 20 years with complex-PTSD, depression, and FND. I had tried every treatment available to me, both through the NHS and privately - medications, therapies, inpatient care, etc. None of these treatments had worked long-term, and some had even left me with more issues. I firmly held onto the belief that I was meant to suffer.At the time of my first visit, I was a shell of my former self (which already seemed like shell itself). I was experiencing seizures and flashbacks daily, and had too little energy to consistently wash or feed myself. I largely depended on my partner and mother to keep me from hurting myself. Now, nine months later, my life has changed in ways I could never have anticipated: I experience seizures only twice a month at most, I have a job, I'm able to make time for hobbies, I'm learning to drive, I exercise daily. I still struggle from time to time, but not at all in the way I'm used to - I self-soothe, I'm kind to myself, I'm able to listen to myself and communicate my feelings and needs to the people around me. It's very strange (but welcome!) to meet and get to know a version of myself I didn't know could exist.I still get infusions once every two months, and I'm happy to continue with my treatment indefinitely. I've never met such a kind, compassionate team. I'm insanely lucky to have found them.

Dr. Yadhu is an amazing physician and human being. He listens to his patients ver attentively and shares his wisdom through detailed patient education. I fly from the USA to London to receive his care and treatments, and this is a testament to my admiration and thanks for him. I am more than extremely happy to be one of his patients for more than 3 years and I pray that he will continue to take care of me for many years to come. There is no better doctor than Dr. Yadhu - plain and simple.

Save Minds, has the opportunity to do just that!You could not ask to meet a doctor with more compassion, empathy, humour, sympathy, and care. Dr Yadhu is more than just a doctor. He has been support, an advice giver, a listening ear, and incredibly understanding.The clinic is very discreet, modern, relaxing, and beautifully maintained. The staff onsite and on the phone are professional and yet friendly. Thanks to Sahana for her support and helpfulness in booking appointments and being flexible around my dates and times.I would urge anyone who needs support overcoming PTSD, anxiety or depression to see how ketamine therapy could change their life. Its such a shame that it's not provided on the NHS.Save Minds & Dr Yadhu was a saving grace for my partner. I cannot honestly use enough words to express my gratitude to him for his time.An amazing man, doing amazing work.THANK YOU 🙏🏽🙏🏽

Save Minds and Dr Yadhu have been instrumental in helping be with my burnout, depression and anxiety. They’re doing incredibly important work and do it in a compassionate and empatheric way.I highly recommend them!

This is hard for me to write truthfully without sounding as if I'm exaggerating. Doctor yadu is one of the nicest, kindest, gentle, understanding human beings I have ever had the pleasure of meeting.All of my worries, doubts, fears and nerves regarding treatment were completely dissolved after speaking and meeting with him. He has such a comforting and reassuring nature. That just our chats and laughs prior to treatment are enough to remind me there is still so much good in humanity and in the professionals that really care for their patientsI have suffered with multiple complex traumas for many years, anxieties, depression and severe PTSD. I've tried every treatment there is from psychedelic tea to toad venoms. Nothing has freed me from my anxiety and depression like ketamine. The world is still corrupt, people are still vile and i still dont like the way i look but I don't care anymore and it's so liberating.When I read these reviews I actually questioned whether they were real people and so for that reason; You're welcome to contact me anytime, I'm just a normal guy.

Dr. Yadhu has been a lifesaver for me and my family.A true beacon of hope in the darkness.I came to Save Minds as a last resort for my severe treatment resistant depression and suicidal ideation.I was in such a bad mental state that I didn't have much hope.However, with Dr Yadhu's kind and encouraging support and expertise I was helped tremendously.After just a couple of infusions, I was no longer suicidal, and with each subsequent treatment, my depression and anxiety improved.I was pretty anxious before my first infusion as I had never tried anything like this before. However, there was no need to have worried.. I'll never forget the feeling of calmness and relief that washed over me at that first treatment. I was tapping into such a lovely feeling of safety and security I hadn't felt for years. I knew then, that things could change for me.The treatments gave me renewed hope, and slowly I could see the light at the end of the very dark tunnel.I feel tremendously blessed to have found Dr. Yadhu, he's an exceptionally kind and caring doctor.I can truly say he saved my life, and for that, my family and I, will be eternally grateful.

Dr Yadhu completely changed my life. I’ve been suffering with life long depression and anxiety. I’ve tried everything available. Nothing really helped. This treatment, plus his incredible care, healed me. I am so much happier. I am so much calmer. I’m so much lighter. Please give yourself this life changing gift. Trust the process and change your life for real. You could not be in more wonderful and compassionate hands than Dr Yadhu. He’s amazing and so is ketamine treatment.

The treatment exceeded all of my expectations. Experiencing sever anxiety and depression disorder for many years since adolescence, the treatment literally changed my life.I want to thank Dr. Yadhu for the treatment and his smart approach to it as well. Also, for his professionalism and sincere desire to help people suffering mental health issues.Also, I'd like to thank Sahana for being accommodative with the appointment slots.Best Wishes!!

I had 7 sessions of IV ketamine with Dr. Yadhu so far to treat my moderate depression. I only have nice things to say about Dr. Yadhu!In my intake session, he really took a long time to explain everything about ketamine, what it does to your brain, how you might feel, what the results might be, etc. I honestly don't think I've ever been given so much attention from a doctor before.As for the actual infusions, personally I have always had a very smooth ride, with no adjustments needed from Dr. Y. However, he sits there the whole time to make you feel secure and to make sure you are doing ok both mentally and physically. I have to say I honestly enjoy having him there. I always remark during my sessions that he must have heard people say some crazy stuff! I always feel comfortable saying whatever I want to him throughout.He spends a good amount of time with you before your IV sessions to see how you are doing. What I really enjoy about this time is that he often shares (while respecting privacy) anecdotes about other patients and their points of view. This has really been helpful for me to frame my experiences. I also just enjoy discussing the topic of psychedelic medicine with him - not many doctors make you feel comfortable around the topic!I can sometimes be a bit shy in asking for things that I need/want, but Dr. Yadhu is super accommodating. I was fidgeting with my eyemask from home, and he offered me a new one that I now bring to my sessions. He also plays DJ for you unless you have any playlists you'd like to hear. Once in the middle of a session I started rambling about how it would be interesting to listen to qawwali music, and he brought up a video on youtube and played it for me. How many doctors would do that?!As for the facilities - it's a dentist office at the end of the day, however the rooms where ketamine is administered are always spotless and smell nice. It's definitely a comfortable experience.As for the effect ketamine has had - I am trying to come off of anti-depressants due to the side effects, and ketamine made it a lot easier to start that process. There were days when I sort of felt that sense of total normality again, no depression making me feel lethargic and flatline. The effect has worn off, but I can reflect back on the experience to remember that it is possible for me to feel normal again, and that is helpful.In all honesty, the treatments are expensive which has prevented me from doing them more often. But I don't think there is really any cheaper available alternative, and it is money well spent if you have it. In the mean time, I really can say I miss my sessions with DJ Yadhu! Hope I can have another one soon.

Hi my Name is steve.WThis is my experience withDr Yadhu at Save Minds. I had severe depression for Approx 12 years, many of those suicidal.I had tried every pill and combination. With zero reults .I had lost all hope.also hospitalised at times.I came across ketamine infusions, and was desperate to try it.this was last result for me as the pain was unbareable.Dr Yadhu has many years ketamine experience not only as infusions .but also as an anesthetic in hospital setting. A hugely sincere man .I was informed that because of my severity .this would not be an over night fix.And i needed to bare with it.with ups and downs. I was sceptical at first.Then saw promise as treatment continued. Then came a realisation that wellness was possible. A Place of normality i allways hoped for.i also became less fragile. My advice on my experience is please stick with it.Thankyou Dr yadhuFor your help and sincere words . Steve

Dr. Yadhu is one of the most compassionate, caring provides I've ever had the fortune to encounter. After moving to the UK from the US, I was anxious about continuing my ketamine maintenance treatments with a new provider. I shouldn't have worried - Dr. Yadhu provided exceptional care. I was never rushed - he made time to chat and really connect with me before each treatment, getting a solid grounding in how I was doing, and he made sure I stayed as long as I needed before leaving after a treatment. After one harder session, he was able to dial in the dosage/flow speed to make sure my next session was more gentle. Another benefit - I have tiny veins, and at previous centres, was regularly poked multiple times before they could get a good injection site, which always made the beginnings of my treatments stressful. Dr. Yadhu is the only doctor I've ever encountered who got the needle in on the first try every time! He genuinely CARES. You are in the greatest hands with Dr. Yadhu!

Dr Yadhu is the most amazing professional I have had the fortune to meet. He is kind, compassionate and caring. I was really scared and apprehensive about starting my treatment, especially due to the financial costs but BOY am I glad I did. By 5 treatments in, my life turned around. My mood went from 0/10 to regularly being 8/10 in just 5 sessions. My anxiety was crippling and it has massively reduced. Please please show yourself some compassion and book a consultation with Save Minds. It will literally change your life.I want to note that Save Minds have not asked me to make this review and this opinion is completely my own.

I am incredibly grateful for the life-changing experience I had at Dr. Yadhu's Ketamine Clinic. From the moment I walked in, the caring staff made me feel comfortable and supported. Dr. Yadhu's expertise and professionalism were outstanding. He took the time to listen and explain the ketamine infusion process, and his knowledge of its effects on mental health was impressive.During the infusions, I felt well taken care of and monitored closely. The experience was peaceful, and the results were transformative. My depressive symptoms significantly reduced, and I gained hope and resilience.In addition to the exceptional medical care, Dr. Yadhu and his team provided valuable emotional support. They answered my questions promptly, addressed concerns, and made me feel part of a caring community. The follow-up care and communication were outstanding.I am immensely grateful to Dr. Yadhu and his team for helping me regain control of my mental health. If you're considering ketamine infusions, I wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Yadhu's Ketamine Clinic. They are exceptional!Thank you, Dr. Yadhu and team, for your unwavering support and commitment to improving lives.

I have been so fortunate to receive Ketamine therapy for my depression and it has helped me feel normal again. Dr. Yadhu has created a safe and loving environment to recieve the life-changing treatment!

I was very lucky to be referred to Dr Yadhu. I am constantly impressed by his dedication and determination to help and heal.After many years of painful isolation I am now enjoying life again, and I am immensely grateful.

This treatment has helped me more than any other form of therapy, be it pharmaceutical or talk-based.Dr Yadhu couples unparalleled knowledge of his field with a truly touching compassion for his patients.He’ll hold your hand through any potentially scary bits and be there smiling on the other end when you begin to reap the rewards of your infusion.I cannot recommend Save Minds highly enough.⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Dr Yadhu is the most amazing guy I think I've ever met. I've done years of trying through more methods than I can count but he gave me the leg up I couldn't find. He's a man who just wants to help and I'll be forever grateful he's on this planet who could help me in my darkest time
