I would encourage you to read all of the comments on Dr Katona, as they are all true and reflect the enormous good that she has obviously done for her patients over the years. Dr Katona offers compassion, empathy, understanding, and above all time to the patients for whom she cares, in a university environment in which those are all in short supply. I have lived with suicidal psychotic depression for many years, but never had an NHS doctor who listened so attentively and offered such valuable insight. You may have to wait well beyond the time of your appointment before you see her, but you know that this time is being dedicated to helping someone as needful as you, so it never feels like an imposition. I now live 350 miles away, with an overworked GP who could easily be replaced by an app on my phone, but I'm still alive because of my time with Dr Katona.
