I saw Dr Montgomery yesterday for my ADHD assessment and he was very welcoming and reassuring. He was very quick to put me at ease and confirm my ADHD which was a huge relief after years of being undermined by my NHS GP's and being made to feel that I was imagining it - it's hard to describe how good it feels to finally be taken seriously by a health professional. Dr Montgomery explained that he would ask/repeat some previous questions to acertain if there were any other symptoms or conditions and I believe that if I had been wrong to suspect I had ADHD that he would have been very helpful to try and find out what I may have been struggling with instead. This was a big concern for me, especially paying for a private diagnosis and if I was paying for an assessment for something I might not have, would I just be left guessing what next? But that didn't happen and Dr Montgomery was very thorough and I would not hesitate to reccomend his services as someone who really seems to care about his patients. I found Dr Montgomery through Psychiatry-UK but had the optin to visit him in person in Tavistock. For my follow up appointments I can visit in person or over video link instead, so it's great to have that flexibility. My only concern was being unsure if I was actually in the right location when we arrived, so if possible I'd suggest a small sign or something to let visitors know they're in the correct waiting room etc! But that's the only thing I can think of, not a big issue at all. Highly reccomended!
