About: Psychiatry-UK

I've been waiting since September 2023 to be seen by this organization. The commutation is almost non-existent. If you look up their waiting list times its more than 18 months. Had I known this from the start I would have asked my GP to refer me to another specialist.Their reviews aren't just bad in relation to their waiting time but they're full of totally disgruntled clients. I've been depressed, both my relationship and my job is on the line while these people except new clients that they have no infrastructure to deal with, it's just corporate greed. They're biting off more than they can chew while leaving people that are desperate for help in a mess. You a "the right to choose" so if you've been left dangling as I was then ask you GP to refer you to someone of your choice. I did 2 weeks ago and I expect to been seen in the next 10 weeks. Had I not done this I could be waiting another 18 months. I just heard from Psychiatry-UK today for the first time in months. They requested some more information from me and I'm to submit it within the next 3 months (no hurry then lol). From my experience this organization is a dead loss. I'd urge you to look them up on social media and on review sites. I think you'll find that not only am I right about the long waiting times but most people didn't think they helped them at all. I honestly can't remember seeing a positive review. Don't the research and you decide. Sitting around waiting isn't a good option.
