I was placed under Dr. Rahmanian's care through the ADHD centre - After suffering from consistent issues with mental health and certain aspects of life from around 6 years old, I had had prior experience with psychiatrists who had never fully diagnosed and treated the root causes of my issues. After underperformance in school and a long period of unemployment I started looking for work at 23, but found myself unable to keep up with the demands of life. I was finally diagnosed with ADHD after a consultation with Dr. Rahmanian, at age 24. The diagnosis consisted of periods of me being directly asked specific questions relating to official diagnostic criteria , and periods where I could elaborate and talk about things I felt relevant. In addition to this the perspectives of my family and girlfriend where also considered. Dr. Rahmanian has a very calming yet assertive presence that felt very professional and reassuring. I felt confident to open up and explain myself to him, and he was in charge of guiding the consultation keeping everything on track. At the end I felt very understood and listened to. I was diagnosed with ADHD-C. Following on from this I decided to try medication. Dr. Rahmanian had high safety standards before I could being titrating the medication including me getting an ECG and bloodpressure check, and blood test for liver and kidney function plus others. As I understand this dedication to safety is above and beyond what is legally required, and as someone who is prone to worrying about health it made me feel very secure and in safe hands. I began medication under Dr. Rahmanian. The whole time I was given options over my treatment. At every appointment, after reiving medical advice and guidance I was left in charge of what I would like to do going forward, such as increasing the dose or changing the medication. I settled on the appropriate dose and was entered into a shared care agreement after 4 or so months. I can not stress enough how drastically my life has changed for the better since starting this medication. It has been completely life changing and at every step of the way Dr. Rahmanian has been a friendly, supportive and professional guide. If you are considering going for private treatment I highly recommended choosing Dr. Rahmanian as your psychiatrist as he is very personable, makes you feel in control and has uncompromising standards of safety and professionalism. 10/10
