This person has been praised by his peers at the Priory to protect his rapidly diminishing reputation. The truth is that he is a sham, an 'expert' of nothing, and to his shame lacks even the most basic attributes of compassion and dedication. Believe the naysayers. They are the truth tellers,not those who have suddenly come out of the swamp to praise Caesar. I have direct experience of his lack of accountability, care or even interest. He's a pill pusher extraordinaire enmeshed in the 70's. But far worse, he couldn't give a monkey's fart about long term recovery in severe mental health cases. He's a Professor now. That should tell you all you need to know about this obsolete profession. Find another way of helping yourself or your loved ones or you will regret it for a very long time, perhaps forever

Response from Professor David Veale
Thank you. I don't recognise myself as a "pill pusher". I advise on medication if a patient has not made the progress they wanted from cognitive behaviour therapy (which I am trained in). My recent research have included developing triple chronotherapy for the rapid treatment of depression and the use of nutritional psychiatry - areas which few psychiatrists would venture into and nothing to do with medication.
