I was first referred to Dr. slaney when i moved out of London 10 years ago to Basingstoke. I was suffering from Post Natal Depression, as well as a miriad of other mental illnesses, that Dr. Slaney gently, but firmly, explained to me. He is an absolute Gem. a perfect mix of professionalism and humour and caring. A very talented and kind Doctor.

Dr Slaney is a gentle kind empathetic man who really does listen and care. He always asks both the right and astute questions to ensure you are receiving the right type of therapy and medication. If you feel uncomfortable receiving 'psychiatric help' he quickly puts you at ease with a gentle charm and humour and actually makes you feel 'normal'. After a few episodes of depression followed by anxiety we have developed a long term plan to help me go out on my own and 'be well'. Strongly recommend this doctor for others seeking support, help and guidance. Always found myself with a smile on my face as we went through our sessions, just finding the humour in life. Incredibly knowledgeable man with all sorts of interesting facts....

I was recently discharged by Dr. Slaney, and the difference in my life since being treated by him is astounding. I have suffered for years with anxiety and depression, and was at my wit's end when I first saw him. He found a combination of medication that finally helped me long-term and introduced me to fantastic therapists, one of whom I'm still in contact with today. Under his care I managed to leave a dead-end job and start my career in a location I've always dreamed of living in, and I've made my first steps towards independent living. None of this would have been possible without his help - he is an empathetic, kind man who can put even the most anxious person at ease. He uses humour sensitively and compassionately, which I found enormously comforting during the darkest times of my illness. I always felt 'seen' by Dr. Slaney and what I had to say was treated as important - I would recommend him without hesitation. Thank you for everything.

Brilliant doctor I was struggling with addiction and major depression and he has helped me get through it. I would recommend him as he listens and is thoughtful and kind. He supported me when I needed it from the first consultation to detox to living life stable. If your struggling with addiction or mental health I wouldn't look any further Hes a awsome guy

Having been passed around various mental health professionals in the NHS, I was finally referred to Dr Slaney by my GP. This was the start of recovery for me after over 20 years of suffering. Dr Slaney was everything that I didn't even know I needed in a psychiatrist!! When I was suffering so badly, I could not see the wood for the trees, he always made well judged, positive steps towards improvement. He took me as an individual and applied his care with this in mind (unlike before, where I felt that I was prescribed the "standard treatment in your position"). He and Lindy are such a reassuring team, nothing phases them, they are always up to speed with your situation, so you don't have to go through the anxiety of having to re -cap on your situation. Before my recovery was in full swing, I could contact them when I was in crisis and they would not treat me with pity, but instead make an appointment within 24 hours and embark on resolving the situation. They are literally worth their weight in gold!!!
