Dr Richard Fry

Dr Fry is an amazing psychiatrist. He looks at the whole person and how overall health, functioning, wellbeing, nutrition and genetics might play a part in finding solutions to psychiatric or neurodevelopmental conditions. His knowledge is second to none. He is also able to take into account seemingly unrelated symptoms and health conditions and form a co-ordinated treatment plan. Most importantly his treatments are designed to work with the body and with a person's specific profile. This has meant that there have been no side effects to his treatment and we have been able to trust his opinion completely. He is especially knowledgeable about how to approach complex syndromes or multiple diagnoses. Dr Fry is friendly and approachable. He has an open, candid style which puts you at ease and makes you feel as if nothing is embarrassing. He also has a great sense of humour, which helps. Dr Fry really cares, appointments never feel rushed, he spends a lot of effort individualising treatment plans and he has always taken time to fully understand our concerns. I'm just glad that we found him.

Contacted Dr Fry in order to get an ASD assessment for my daughter. We already had 2 reports and we were going through NHS diagnosis, however due to EHCP application and secondary school coming up we were keen to get a diagnosis through ASAP. Dr Fry said he would trial a video assessment (couldn't do face to face due to covid) which he hadn't done before. Communication was sporadic, many times no replies. The reports we already had were sent to Dr Fry. Video assessment was inconclusive, Dr Fry advised we needed a face to face and referred us to someone who cold do this. He wrote up a report very similar to the two we already had. We then got invoiced for the full amount, despite him being unable to actually assess out daughter.

Dr Fry was very abrupt, had no sympathy, and came across as though he was to busy. Appointment cost £600. We have tried to contact his secretary, through emails and phone calls to arrange a therapy appointment. A few weeks later and they have still not contacted us.
