  • Title: Psychosomatic illnesses in patients attending the medical outpatient department in a government hospital.
    Author: Chakraborti RN, Chakrabarti N, Chatterjee P.
    Journal: J Indian Med Assoc; 2004 Jan; 102(1):33-4. PubMed ID: 15195857.
    Abstract:
    The incidence of psychosomatic illness among Indian patients has been found to be high. Owing to the stigma attached to psychiatric illnesses, most patients remain reluctant to visit a psychiatrist. The result is an overcrowding in the medicine and other specialist departments. A psychiatry department with consultation-liaison psychiatric service in each government hospital is the need of the day.
