About Dr Goolam-Amod
“I am a dedicated Specialist Psychiatrist with extensive experience having treated and managed a broad spectrum of psychiatric disorders including affective disorders, anxiety disorders, psychotic disorders, trauma-related disorders, personality disorders, neurocognitive disorders, substance use disorders and psychiatric emergencies. I am also passionate about child psychiatry including ADHD management.”
Care begins with a proper assessment — unhurried, thorough, and free of judgement. From there, treatment is planned together with you, and with the people who matter in your care: your family, your general practitioner, your psychologist.

Child Psychiatry & ADHD
A particular passion: developmental and emotional difficulties in children and adolescents, including ADHD assessment and management.
Child psychiatry and ADHD management
Children are seen with their parents or caregivers. Assessment is gentle and unhurried, and always includes the school and home picture — because a child is best understood in context.
Where ADHD is present, management is planned carefully and reviewed regularly, with clear guidance for families and schools.
A considered approach
Three quiet commitments that shape every consultation.
Discretion
Privacy, always
Consultations take place in a private, calm setting. What is discussed stays between you and your treating team.
Collaboration
Care that works together
Where it helps, treatment is coordinated with your general practitioner, psychologist or other clinicians — with your consent.
Continuity
Care that continues
Psychiatric care is rarely a single appointment. Reviews are planned so that treatment can be adjusted as things change.
Payment & medical aid
Most reputable medical aids are accepted. Please confirm your plan and authorisation with the practice before your first appointment.
Where a medical aid does not cover the full consultation, accounts are settled privately and a detailed invoice is provided for you to submit to your scheme.
