Really liked this doctor and how they set expectations at the start of the meeting, so I knew it would be fast paced (which I was happy with) and I liked knowing that he may interrupt to keep me on track (I talk a lot, so I really appreciated being made aware of that) and that we'd definitely have time for me to ask questions.
I appreciated the summary at the end, to make sure we were on the same page and also that he fully took me through my options before I decided on the track I wanted to take.
Overall, really great experience. I feel very well informed on the process and future steps and he made perfect use of the limited time.

Dr Mellor is friendly, welcoming, and gave me the space to communicate with ease while keeping things moving and engaging. A great and understanding listener, I felt I was in capable hands.

Dr Richard Mellor took care of my titration for ADHD medication following my initial diagnosis. He was a very attentive and open communicator, so I felt very able to voice my needs as I adjusted to the medication. I felt empowered by information and clear answers to any questions I had. Dr Mellor was always quick to respond and competently managed my titration process from start to finish - I was never left in the dark waiting for advice.
A very good experience during a sensitive time in my wellbeing!
