Linda was diagnosed with having Bipolar in a psychotic depressive episode/ shizo-Affective F25.9 and treated under the excellent care of Consultant Psychiatrists: Dr Jason Taylor, Dr Salah Fadl and Dr Ivana Markova. On her medication she managed being a housewife and mother, doing part-time work and booking the odd holiday for family. Then after 10 years, Consultant Psychiatrist Dr Pavel Frichich took over her treatment; all was fine for some time, but when NEPT Chief Executive retired living this position temporary vacant, Dr Pavel Fridrich decided Linda had Emotionally Unstable Personality Disorder and stopped her mood stabilizer Valproate and just prescribed Quetiapine for her to cope on. Her work stopped, struggling with her mood cycle, periods of depression, housework ceased, then periods of spending, thousands in debt and other unwanted situations, this also affecting family and friends. Then when Linda ran out of Quetiapine, a Psychotic Episode developed, with the Community mental health team (CMHT) ignoring this serious situation at Lindas home and A&E for nearly a week, as the new diagnosis of Emotionally Unstable Personality Disorder Dr Pavel Fridrich put on Linda became a red herring, with the CMHT thinking a cup of tea with a friend will settle her, leaving family, friends, members of the public , Police, GP, Fire brigade, ambulance staff and council officials to deal with this psychotic episode, then when a fatality nearly occurred, all praise to the Police who helped get Linda sectioned. I would not recommend Dr Pavel Fridrich treating anyone.

This doctor doesn't listen to me at all. He has never listened to my views or my requests and is extremely rude.
