How Does It Work?
Private psychiatry follows a proven process that begins with an initial assessment. This will be conducted by one of our highly-qualified and professional psychiatrists. Here, the psychiatrist will ask about your medical history, mental health history, current symptoms, and any previous treatments. Based on the assessment, the psychiatrist may provide a diagnosis or suggest further evaluations if necessary.
Key steps of the process after arranging your initial consultation include:
• Treatment Plan: (personalised care, medication management, therapy)
• Follow-up Appointments: (regular monitoring or flexible scheduling)
• Additional Services: (psychological testing, nutritional counselling)
