Your first visit

Your first visit

A calm, step-by-step guide to your first appointment, so you know what to expect.

Booking. Call or WhatsApp 82172 04952. Consultations are by appointment, Monday to Saturday, 1 PM – 3 PM and 5 PM – 9 PM, and on Sunday from 10 AM – 1 PM by prior appointment only. Please book in advance; we value your time.
What to bring. Any previous prescriptions, medicines you currently take (or photos of the strips), recent blood reports or scans, and, if you are comfortable, a family member or friend who knows you well.
An unhurried conversation. We will talk about what brought you here, how long it has been happening, your sleep, appetite, energy, work, studies and relationships, your medical history and family history, and any use of alcohol or other substances. There are no right or wrong answers, and you can share at your own pace.
Understanding together. I will explain what I think is happening in plain language, answer your questions, and discuss whether any tests are needed.
A plan you agree with. We decide the next steps together. These may include counselling or therapy, lifestyle changes, medicines, or a combination. You will leave knowing what to do, what to expect and when to return.
Follow-up. The first review is usually within a few weeks, to see how you are doing and adjust the plan.
