About Caledonian Psychiatry

Caledonian Psychiatry is a specialist independent psychiatric practice led by Dr David Crocker, offering a highly personalised approach to mental healthcare. Built around the principles of continuity, trust and consistency, the practice provides patients with the reassurance of seeing the same psychiatrist throughout every stage of their care. From initial assessment and diagnosis through to follow-up appointments, treatment planning and report writing, all aspects of care are delivered personally by Dr Crocker.

The practice is founded on the belief that effective psychiatric care is strengthened by a consistent therapeutic relationship. By maintaining continuity throughout the patient journey, Caledonian Psychiatry aims to provide a deeper understanding of each individual's circumstances, allowing care to be tailored thoughtfully and safely over time.

Based at The Lighthouse in North Berwick, East Lothian, the practice delivers all appointments via secure video consultations from a dedicated clinical environment. This flexible approach enables patients to access specialist psychiatric care from the comfort and privacy of their own surroundings, without the inconvenience of travel or disruption to their daily routine.

As Scotland’s first independent medical agency to be regulated by Healthcare Improvement Scotland, Caledonian Psychiatry is committed to delivering high standards of care. The practice welcomes adults from all backgrounds, identities and neurotypes and provides accessible psychiatric services to patients residing throughout Scotland and the wider UK.

Had an online consultation with doctor Crocker for adhd and autism joint assessment. I was very nervous, but right from the start Dave put me at ease and I soon settled in and the conversation was flowing. Dave has a wonderfully calm demeanour and voice which made it all the easier to get the important points across on my part. He is very good at coaxing the information he needs from you, he asks the questions in such a way that conversation just flows and for that I am grateful. If you are on the fence about whether or not to book these services from Caledonian psychiatry, do not be afraid! The team will put you at ease and everything is so well organised that all you have to do is be there to chat! Genuinely don’t hesitate, I have prolonged this for far too long in my life and I only wished I had done it sooner. I thank Dave and the team profusely for the help they have offered me thus far!

Assessment and the report afterwards were thorough and helpful. It was particularly helpful getting tailored advice regarding reasonable adjustments that may assist at work. The doctor felt friendly and easy to speak to. Would definitely recommend.

I had two assessment meetings with David Crocker and can honestly say I felt seen for the first time. David listened patiently and put me at ease. I felt relaxed and comfortable enough to be completely honest with him. After my diagnosis I have taken meds as prescribed and I'm noticing a huge difference in only a few days.

I had a great experience all through my assessment. I felt very nervous but Dr Crocker but me at ease and was instantly easy to open up to due to his kind, warm nature. He was professional throughout and transparent in ensuring I knew what was happening at each stage. I would recommend Caledonian Psychiatry to anyone seeking an assessment who wishes for a more personal experience.

Dr Crocker was actually nice and I felt comfortable and heard. He took time to explain and discuss things with me after my assessment, which I really appreciated.
