Dr Lucinda Green

Written by a private patient at The Portland Hospital

I cannot recommend Lucinda enough. She has fantastic clinical knowledge and is a leading expert on perinatal psychiatry (one amusing incident was when I quoted to her a guideline that she herself had written!). She pitches this information in a very accessible way. However, equally important is her genuine empathy and kindness, willingness to work in partnership with her patients and her natural communication skills. I never once felt dismissed or not listened to. She also gave me hope at the darkest times. In addition, she was able to recognise when I needed to be transferred to my local hospital/CMHT service for urgent care and was instrumental in keeping me safe and ensuring my care was transferred across to a new team. Finally, although the fees may be expensive, I thought she was always generous in how she charged a session and there were no hidden costs which other private doctors seem to have (e.g. writing a prescription or a letter). I'm delighted to finally be in a good place with my mental health and she's been instrumental to that.

I visited Dr Green after a period of severe anxiety during which I found out I was five weeks pregnant. I was disheartened by support from my GP surgery which was inconsistent and confusing, especially regarding medication during pregnancy. Booking an appointment with Dr Green was straightforward. I was reassured by her warm and empathetic responses even in our first email exchanges. Seeing Dr Green was the single most helpful thing I did during my experience of poor mental health. I arrived feeling anxious, unsure and lacking in understanding of my own mental health. I left feeling reassured, assured of my plan back to good health, and with a much better understanding of myself. Dr Green got to know me better than any medical professional ever has in just 90 minutes. I left with a report which has assisted me in understanding my own challenges and treating myself with more compassion. It is also clear that her word is well respected as other medical professionals appear to take my challenges much more seriously since I saw her. I am so thankful to Dr Green and the assistance she gave me. She is so kind and has continued to keep in touch via email since I saw her - she always responds promptly. I am now in a much better position and feel confident about the future. I would not hesitate to recommend Dr Green to anyone who requires her services.

I had an amazing experience seeing Dr Lucinda. She was very understanding and reassuring and most importantly very knowledgeable regarding pre-conception planning and mental health. I wish I had seen her sooner. Thank you so much Dr Lucinda.

I am extremely grateful to have found Dr. Lucinda Green. She has helped me so much over the past several years - not only while I was pregnant and postpartum but also in general as well. She is an excellent listener and seemed to understand me from the moment we met. She has been invaluable. I could not recommend her more highly.
