A very friendly and insightful doctor, who obviously has a lot of knowledge and insight concerning brain disorders; he even made me a cup of tea! Would highly recommend, particularly for anyone suffering from deep and long lasting problems relating to focus and impulsiveness in their lives. It may help you a better understanding of the nature and cause of your difficulties.
Dr. Montgomery made what I envisioned as a stressful, unpleasant experience into a calming, relaxing, and almost therapeutic one. I saw Dr. Montogmery to determine whether or not I have ADHD, and his calm and friendly demeanour made me feel completely at ease from the offset. He really cared and listened to me, making me feel understood for the first time in a while. The whole experience was a pleasure and I whole heartedly recommend anyone who may be apprehensive about going through the process of assessing the existence of any underlying conditions to see Dr. Montgomery, and I’m looking forward to seeing him again in the next few weeks.
Andy is kind and sympathetic and listened with patience as I tried to explain a lifetimes of problems in an hour.
I was much more nervous than I needed have been. Andy set a positive tone throughout and the appointment felt almost lighthearted at times. This made me feel so much better about myself.
I put a lot of specific information on my pre assessment forms and this really helped us to maximise the hours appointment.
The ADHD medication works really well and addresses most of my symptoms. I haven’t noticed any side effects thus far.
Andrew is a true professional who puts the patient first, he listens and ensures they leave with no questions unanswered.He considers the patients circumstances when offering treatment and what will best fit their lifestyle/schedule.
Very sympathetic
