Dr James Woolley

Written by a patient at The Priory Hospital Roehampton

I had a very positive experience with Dr Woolley. He listened to my concerns wholly and was not quick to immediately diagnose, instead he took the time to fully understand my problems and possible solutions. Also, he was very approachable and gave me lots of information on what he was doing and why. The process was simple and easy despite me being nervous beforehand. As a result, I would recommend Dr Woolley to anyone who is worried about their mental health.

Dr Woolley is dependable, courteous and respectful. He listens carefully to what you have to say. I particularly like the fact that Dr Woolley clearly takes the time to re-familiarise himself with my file before each consultation. When suggesting a change in medication Dr Woolley provides a careful explanation of why the change appears necessary and warns of the possible side effects. I have also been impressed by his ability to identify psychotherapists whose therapeutic work has dovetailed well with other aspects of my care. Largely as a result of Dr Woolley's oversight of my medication and treatment I have been able to continue working in a challenging full time professional role.

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.
