14+ Years Expert
Greater Noida's Research-Backed Psychiatrist
Dr. Debolina Chowdhury is a Consultant Psychiatrist with over 14 years of clinical experience, specialising in evidence-based treatment of anxiety disorders, depression, OCD, schizophrenia, substance de-addiction, and women's mental health. She is a co-founder of Nirvana Clinic, Greater Noida, where she brings specialist psychiatric expertise — previously available only in large hospital settings — to an accessible private clinic.
Dr. Debolina completed her MBBS from Saint Petersburg State Pediatric Medical Academy, Russia in 2010 and her internship at Deen Dayal Upadhyay Hospital, New Delhi. She then pursued her MD in Psychiatry from Jawaharlal Nehru Medical College (Datta Meghe Institute of Medical Sciences), Wardha, Maharashtra — a premier psychiatric training centre — where she trained in a 1,525-bed multi-specialty teaching hospital.
She currently serves as Senior Consultant Psychiatrist at Fortis Hospital, Greater Noida — one of the region's most respected hospital systems — while also practising at Nirvana Clinic. This dual role gives her a rare clinical depth that most private practitioners lack.
She is a published researcher with 17 peer-reviewed journal publications and 5 book chapters, including contributions to the IPS Textbook of Sexuality and Sexual Medicine and the forthcoming Oxford Textbook of Organisational Psychological Medicine.
"My goal is not just to prescribe medication — it is to help you understand your mind, build lasting resilience, and reclaim your wellbeing. Mental health care should be precise, compassionate, and completely free of stigma."— Dr. Debolina Chowdhury, Consultant Psychiatrist, Nirvana Clinic

Evidence-based psychiatric care at Nirvana Clinic, Sun Twilight Mall, Greater Noida.
The Nirvana Approach to Mental Healthcare
Structured psychiatric evaluation — no guesswork. Training at a 1,525-bed teaching hospital means she has clinically managed rare and complex cases that most practitioners encounter only once.
CBT, psychoeducation, and mindfulness first. Medication added only when necessary and monitored regularly — minimum effective doses always.
Nirvana Clinic is a judgement-free space. Trained in consultation-liaison psychiatry — equally at home alongside physicians treating diabetes, infections, and chronic illness.
Dr. Debolina and Dr. Manuj Sondhi (MRCP UK, Diabetologist) practise under one roof — the only integrated diabetes-and-psychiatry care in Greater Noida.
