She was very informative but explained things in laymen’s terms so that I understood and could make considered decisions with her. She was open to listening to me and coming up with options to suit my personal needs and Jen was very patient with me and my adhd brain lol. Honestly I couldn’t recommend her and the whole right to choose psychiatry uk process enough! Well done Jen and well done psychiatry uk.

Jennifer was the prescribing nurse for my titration period with PsychiatryUK. Titration was such a positive experience thanks to her detailed replies and the way she always laid out the various options available to me. I never felt rushed to finish titration and whenever I had questions or issues with side effects I always had a really quick and helpful response. Jennifer made everything very simple and kept me up-to-date with her availability and who to contact if she was on leave and I had questions. Thank you for the support and help you provided. If you have Jennifer as your nurse for titration you are in very good hands!

Jennifer was extremely helpful throughout my titration and gave tips to get the medication to work more efficiently. The whole process was extremely easy and being guided through medication which sounded scary were a breeze thanks to the support Jennifer gave. If anyone is going through titration and has Jennifer as their nurse, you are definitely in good hands.

Jenny was very helpful throughout my year or so of titration for ADHD medication. She was always happy to answer my questions, however silly I sometimes felt for asking, and when she wasn't able to make a decision for me was very clear about what factors were involved. Even just communicating online, she came over as very caring and patient!

I have so much to thank Jenny for, I don't know where to begin. I was paired with Jenny as part of my ADHD medication titration with Psychiatry-UK via NHS Right to Choose. Jenny is such a patient, empathetic, and caring person. She is down to earth, extremely professional, and upholds the highest standards when communicating with me and prescribing. Jenny provided such helpful options to allow me to lead my titration, but at the same time used her extensive knowledge and experience to guide me and help me understand what realistic expectations to have with medication for my symptoms, and to recognise when something was not working. Jenny does not provide a 'one size fits all' approach to patient care, she speaks to me as an individual and has a truly admirable gift of knowing how to adapt to communicate based on our prescriber/patient relationship and how she has learnt my communication needs over time. Through this, she has also taught me (my observation) new ways to 'translate' communication, so that I know I can trust her words to always come from a caring and professional place, which helps me to feel reassured and I don't read into things with my very sensitive, and self-critical nature. I felt very safe under Jenny's care and would highly recommend her to anyone who not only is looking for someone with extensive experience and knowledge, but a human being who puts patient care at the forefront of her work. Jenny, thank you for not only changing my life, but for once in my life allowing me to have a truly positive care experience where I felt heard and prioritised.
