Why So Many Plainville Residents Wait Too Long

Psychiatric providers in central CT are stretched thin. New patient waitlists at many practices run three to six months — and that assumes the practice is even accepting new patients. People end up going without care, or trying to manage things alone until a real crisis forces action. That's a hard way to do it. At Elite Health, we keep a shorter wait and a more personal process. You're not a number on a list. Sindhia takes the time to understand the full picture — what's going on now, what's happened before, and what you're actually hoping for from treatment.

What Conditions We Treat

Depression that makes getting out of bed feel like climbing a wall. Anxiety that hijacks your sleep and your concentration. ADHD that leaves you starting everything and finishing nothing. PTSD. Bipolar disorder. OCD. Panic attacks. Insomnia that no amount of melatonin touches. These aren't character flaws — they're medical conditions, and they respond to the right treatment. Sindhia builds medication management plans that are specific to you, not a generic first-line protocol. And if supportive therapy is part of what you need, that's part of what she offers.

In-Person or Telehealth — Your Call

The office is at 1 Liberty Sq, Suite 301 in New Britain — about ten minutes from Plainville's town center. But you don't have to come in if that doesn't work for you. Telehealth appointments are available to all Connecticut residents, and most people find them just as effective as sitting in a waiting room. Either way, you get the same level of care. Insurance accepted includes Aetna, Cigna, Husky Health, Medicaid, United Healthcare, Anthem, and ConnectiCare. Self-pay is welcome too.

Frequently Asked Questions

The first visit is a psychiatric evaluation — think of it as an extended conversation. Sindhia will ask about your current symptoms, your history, your family background, any medications you've tried before, and what's going on in your life right now. It's not a pop quiz. There are no wrong answers. The goal is to get a clear picture so that any treatment plan actually fits your situation. You'll leave with a clear understanding of next steps.

Yes — both Medicaid and Husky Health are accepted. We also accept Aetna, Cigna, United Healthcare, Anthem, and ConnectiCare. And if you're paying out of pocket, self-pay rates are available. Call 860-515-8689 if you want to confirm your specific plan before booking.

Absolutely. Telehealth is available to any Connecticut resident, and it works just as well for most appointments — evaluations, medication follow-ups, check-ins. You just need a phone, tablet, or computer with a camera. Many of our Plainville patients do all their appointments remotely. If you'd prefer to come in, the New Britain office is close and easy to get to.
