Written by a private patient
12th December 2021


I have been extremely fortunate to have previously been a private patient of Dr Rifkin. I cannot express how crucial and invaluable his care has been in my life. He's honestly saved my life several times and has always gone above and beyond to help his patients, more than any other doctor I have ever come across and I have seen many over the 20 years I have been trying to manage my mental health disorder. He's genuinely invested in the care and wellbeing of his patients, becoming an invaluable ally in treating and supporting you through your illness. He's always been extremely emphatic and kind to his patients and as such, it's always felt safe to open up about your mental health issues to him, crucially even when you are in a very dark place. Whilst I was under his care, he continually kept informed and up to date (even ahead), of promising new emerging treatments to manage mental health disorders, which is immeasurably helpful and gives life saving hope to you when older psychiatric medications and treatments have failed to help you or have gradually worn off in effectiveness. This open mindedness and willingness to keep up with the new changes, discoveries and advances in different types of treatment along side his sincere kindess and ease to express your difficulties to him are beyond helpful. To find a doctor that embodies all of these qualities is like finding a needle in a haystack. As we now say about other doctors, 'They're not a Rifkin' ,he's one in a billion. I will forever be eternerly grateful to Dr Rifkin.
