Dr James Woolley

Written by a patient at The Priory Hospital Roehampton

Dr. Woolley is an exceptional psychiatrist. He has deep technical clinical expertise which he wears lightly. In the four years that I have been his patient, for bi-polar disorder, he has inspired great confidence. First, because his treatment makes you better. Under his care and supervision i have been able to hold down a family, career and relationship. Second, because the way in which he diagnoses and decides your treatment is utterly collaborative. Dr. Woolley is flawlessly polite and respectful. He also has a warmth that makes it a pleasure and privilege to work with him towards full recovery.

Dr Woolley always listens, makes me feel at ease and never rushes me. I usually overrun and am only ever charged for 30 minutes. Without him, I would not be here today, and my family owe him a great deal. He is a caring man who I recommend highly.

Dr Woolley is the best psychiatrist I have ever met. After seeing my GP for three distressing years with my issues deteriorating, Dr Woolley made a diagnosis after a two hour consultation. Although the diagnosis was initially devastating, he told me that with the right treatment and support, the next twenty years of my life could be so different to the previous twenty years. I held onto that thought which soon became a belief - and then a reality. Dr Woolley takes a holistic approach. He is the most respectful of professionals, and has only ever treated me with dignity and respect. He is calm under pressure. He takes a patient centred approach. I was given detailed written information about my medication. Whether I was stable or distressed, he adapted his personality to work around me. I was very much involved in my treatment plan. I was treated with dignity st all times. He is easy to talk to, even about difficult issues. His fees are modest for the outstanding care and support he provides. I did have to ask for an invoice a few times so perhaps they could improve their billing procedure. He is the best healthcare professional I have ever met. I would urge those seeking support for mental health issues to seek help from Dr Woolley. I only wish I met him twenty years ago.
