Waiting times for new referrals

Updated: 3rd September 2019

I am currently taking on new patients. The current waiting time is approximately 4 weeks. 

Due to current workload I have very limited availability for formal psychiatric reports (e.g. Item 291) and am having to be selective with referrals for ADHD-related issues. Where unable to provide a report, I will do my best to meet with the patient if appropriate and provide a useful summary letter to the referrer focusing on assisting with the main difficulties. 

I am also happy to discuss cases or potential referrals with my GP specialist colleagues via telephone.
