Berkeley Psychiatrists Reviews 

Everything went so smoothly! I got an appointment literally a day after I signed up. My appointment was with Doctor Thomas Spencer and he was amazing. He made me feel very comfortable and made the appointment feel much more like a conversation and nothing scary.

The care i received was fast, direct, open, honest and supportive

Dr Hollie Hearfield was excellent with my daughter, she really understood her condition, a week after the consultation she has been prescribed medication, everything has been really smooth from start to finish. I would highly recommend her.

Leon, one of the prescribing medical team was very friendly and helpful. I asked to switch medication and he walked me through it and was very informative. I felt he listened and answered all my questions. Thank you Leon!

Easy to use. Patient centered, lovely people and easily taken through what was going to happen then when doing a diagnosis i was supported at every stage

Absolutely brilliant service , Jelena Poznakova is an expert professional & needs a pay rise in my opinion. 10/10

Very professional. Couldn’t recommend enough.

Fast service, listened to my concerns, understanding

After years of bouncing around various NHS mental health services that always seemed to make things worse, I am so glad I booked an adhd assessment with Dr Hearfield. She was warm and very easy to speak to. The diagnosis and report that followed have been very validating. Thankyou.

I had my first titration appointment with Sheryl Colclough. She took the time to explain things to me clearly and in enough detail that I knew exactly what the plan is. As someone with autism and ADHD I find that is surprisingly rare, so I was very pleased.

Was a very fast and easy road to getting diagnosed with them i am very pleased with there services

I have struggled all of my life and come to the realisation that it may be ADHD in the last couple of years, in true ADHD fashion I procrastinated speaking to someone in fear of being wrong. Eventually I conjured up the courage and saw Dr Dutta and in that one hour call she made me feel more heard and understood than I ever have in my whole life.

Lo and behold she diagnosed me with ADHD and I’m now going through titration. I’m very thankful for her kindness during the call, it’s great to finally have some kind of understanding on the way I am.

Joanna was very professional and understanding. She was empathic but efficient and explained clearly at the end what she had found

Dr Anudha Dutta was great!! She listened to me, was patient and took the time to listen to me and then explain why I had been experiencing the symptoms I had been experiencing for my entire life and why they are now a struggle for me more than ever as an adult. At 30 years old Dr Anudha Dutta diagnosed me with ADHD, and explained clearly what will help me moving forward. Thank you!

Dr Dutta was a star. Incredibly grateful to her for her professionalism, intelligence, patience and empathy when delivering what lots would consider to be difficult news.
I’m looking forward to undergoing titration through her prescription and hopefully some life improvements will come shortly after.
Thanks again Doctor!

My appointment was easy to schedule and I was well communicated with throughout. The Clinician I saw (Leon) was very understanding, and asked me clear questions to ensure I was using my medication safely and that it would be effective.

Medication is usually delivered very quickly as well so I can say I am thoroughly satisfied with the service and its outcomes.

Dr Dutta was very easy to talk to and had a lovely gentle manner.

From the date my GP done the referral to the date I got my meds would have been 2 weeks. (I already had my diagnosis)

The prescriber was friendly and very professional, made me feel comfortable throughout the appointment.

I was referred under RTC with an existing ADHD diagnosis. Quick processing and short wait list for titration. I was quite anxious for my first appointment but my clinician, Suzanne Hawkins was very lovely and positive and made me feel very supported. She is very knowledgeable and gave advice about taking the medication (such as diet, sleep etc). She listens to my feedback and has tailored my medication to try and fit in with my lifestyle. I have been very pleased to have Suzanne as my clinician and would recommend her and Berkeley Psychiatrists to others looking to follow the RTC route.

I’ve had both my ADHD assessment with Sarah and my medication review with Suzanne at Berkeley Psychiatrists, and I genuinely couldn’t recommend Berkeley more highly.

The level of professionalism is exceptional. Their knowledge is more than academic/ medical, it's grounded in real-world understanding and genuine insight.

Every piece of advice was thoughtful, carefully considered and tailored to me as an individual.

What surprised me was how much I enjoyed the appointments. I laughed, felt completely at ease, and because of that I was far more open than I expected. They didn’t just ask questions; they created a safe environment, and therefore gained a much deeper understanding of me than I thought possible in a clinical setting.

I was blown away by level of detail and observations in my report. I felt genuinely heard and understood.

The medication review was equally impressive. It wasn’t simply a conversation about medication. We explored how I actually live, and the wider factors affecting my ADHD, so that the decision was the right one for me and not a box-ticking exercise.

My experience wasn’t unique, a friend saw a different psychiatrist at Berkeley, and came away saying exactly the same thing.

If you’re considering an ADHD assessment or treatment, I honestly don’t think you could be in better hands.
