Dr Janes has changed my life around. She is so understanding of my needs and clearly knows her stuff! I would recommend her to anyone seeking advice. I felt she listened to me in a calm and effective way, answering any questions I had with a personal and professional approach. She is one in a million.

Would wholeheartedly recommend Dr Janes to anyone seeking psychiatric help, her warmth and sensitivity to my circumstances really put me at ease in talking about issues I have struggled with for a long time. Since my diagnosis and through the CBT strategies she offered my outlook has changed significantly, I am dealing much better with my negative thought patterns and my confidence in overcoming hurdles in both my working and personal life has improved dramatically.

I have previously left a glowing review on this site for Dr Janes but have since had a terrible experience with her. I have a history of an eating disorder (bingeing) - something that I went into great detail about in my first session. I weighted 14st in my twenties and have been at a healthy 9st for the last two years. I am happy with my weight but always worry about gaining. I have been taking antidepressants since I was diagnosed with an eating disorder. I saw Dr Janes for advice on how to best treat night sweats, a side-effect of some anti-depressants. Dr Janes switched me to a new drug however this did not help. She then prescribed me an anti-histamine (Periactin) for the sweats. I took this for a couple of weeks, and started to feel like a was gaining weight - the scales were rising and my clothes were tighter. This continued and 4 weeks after started Periactin, I weighed 10 stone - I have gained this in less that 4 weeks. Dr Janes decided she couldn't be bothered to tell me the side-effects of this medication - one of it's primary uses being an appetite stimulant to help underweight patients gain weight. When I confronted her, she said casually 'oh, did I not tell you the side effects?' - clearly not, I would never have agreed to take this knowing a major side effect is weight gain!!! Truly awful experience with her, I feel more depressed than ever (ironic, seeing as I was looking for help with antidepressants). Dr Janes did not listen to a word I said and just prescribed the first thing she could think of.

This was my first time seeing Dr Janes - she was warm, empaethic and understanding around my current condition. I felt at ease in her presence, she made me feel comfortable and I could not reccommend her enough.

I am enormously grateful to Dr Janes for the treatment she provided, which has been very helpful in managing my anxiety and helping to alleviate the depression that has plagued me for so long. Dr Janes is very patient and a great listener, taking the time to understand her patient's background and concerns and to explain the reasoning behind any treatment suggestions made. I particularly appreciated her ability to balance the medical expertise required in prescribing medication with a holistic interest in the wellbeing of her patients. She demonstrated great empathy and understanding throughout our sessions, and I wouldn't hesitate to seek out her services again in future. It is also worth noting that Dr Janes' operates extremely efficiently and that her medical secretary is excellent - prescriptions are issued almost immediately, consultation letters shared promptly and the whole process of booking an appointment and receiving the video link functioned very smoothly.
