My experience was made so much better than I thought it was going to because the psychiatrist made me feel at ease completely. He made me feel confident and comfortable to be able to talk to him about my personal situation.

Good experience and professionalism

Waiting time was short. The doctor was professional, attentive, and understanding. Overall, the experience was good; it allowed me to get to know myself better and understand the reasons behind my behaviors. It reminded me of my childhood and my youth.

Jacs

Once my referral had been sent to Psychiatry UK by my GP. I soon received an email notifying me that I had been approved.

I then received the questionnaires within a short period of time and had an appointment approximately a week following their completion.

The whole process was efficient and easy to navigate.

The consultant I saw (Farah) was lovely and understanding and I didn’t feel unsupported at all, despite feeling very anxious prior to the assessment.

Adult ASD assessment with Dr Soumaya Nasser el din

I have had an adult ASD assessment with Dr Soumaya Nasser el din and I have had a very positivie experience. Despite my case being quite complex with a lot of previous mental health issues and childhood trauma etc she was able to take into consideration everything in order to make the best informed decision. The Doctor was very patient and reassuring which was very important, especially that I was very emotional during the assessmnet. She was very clear about what the assessment was going to look like and what the next steps are following the outcome which made me feel more calm about the process.

Go elsewhere!

Waiting 10 months for medication and not even at the “you’re one month from the top of the list” stage yet. To be waiting a year for a medicine you have been deemed as needing is shocking. Oh and they don’t respond to notes, they’re badly organised, they up the wait list and move the goal posts while you’re already on it, they seem on the face of it to not actually care about the patients. If they did they’d not have a year long wait list for someone to prescribe you medication. They keep claiming to be working on getting more staff but the wait lists go up and up, so why are they taking on more clients? Only good thing is the doctors! Both ASD and ADHD psychiatrists I saw were incredible. They seem to be under the impression when they diagnose you that you’ll be medicated within a few months though, so obviously they’re not involved in the process after they write the recommendation nor are they told that the people they diagnose will be waiting a really quite unacceptable time for medicine.

We appreciate you taking the time to leave a review and share your experience. All feedback helps us to better understand patients experiences and identify opportunities to improve our service.
We are very sorry to hear how frustrating and difficult this wait has been for you. We completely understand how challenging it can feel to receive a diagnosis and recommendation for treatment to then face a wait before being able to access medication.
We are also sorry to hear that you felt communication was poor and that you experienced delays in receiving responses to your queries. We understand how frustrating it must have been to feel that waiting times continued to increase and that your expectations regarding the next steps in treatment were not met.
Whilst we are pleased to hear that you had positive experiences with both your ADHD and ASD psychiatrists, we are sorry that your overall experience of the service has left you feeling disappointed and unsupported.
We are committed to providing fair and timely care and continue to work hard to reduce waiting times for all patients. We recognise that this does not lessen the frustration of a long wait and we are sorry for the difficulties this has caused you.
Thank you again for sharing your experience. We recognise how difficult these waits can be and appreciate you taking the time to provide feedback that can help improve the experience of other patients.

ADHD referral

The whole experience from start to finish was very thorough and didn’t take long, from referral to the appointment took a month, easy to follow instructions, which is a relief as I’m not good at following verbal instructions
