Dr Katy Briffa 2018-03-22 Person 5 5 0

I was nervous before my consultation, but was reassured as soon as Dr Briffa introduced herself. She was friendly and warm, and immediately inspired confidence. I felt totally comfortable discussing things with her that I have hardly spoken about before. Dr Briffa listened carefully, asked questions, and made suggestions when I struggled to articulate what I was saying without being intrusive. She made me feel at ease, and that I was in very safe hands. It can be difficult to talk about mental health issues, especially with someone you have never met before - I am by nature quite shy, and I feel anxious when talking to strangers, but Dr Briffa's approach and professionalism meant I was able to talk freely and get the most from the time we had. She also made constructive suggestions about my ongoing treatment and options, and left me feeling hopeful about my future. I would recommend Dr Briffa without reservation.
