Treatment

What kind of treatment will I receive? This depends on the results of your comprehensive assessment. It may be that as part of the treatment approach medication would have a role to play but for many people there are alternative approaches to consider. Because Dr Battersby is a psychiatrist this means she is a fully trained medical practitioner and is therefore well placed to provide an integrated view on how the various components of a treatment plan may fit together. However such a plan is just a starting point for discussion with you as a patient and it will only be through talking together and informed agreement that a final treatment approach is agreed. We will work closely with your GP or referrer to ensure joined-up thinking and services.
