New Forest Psychiatry

New Forest Psychiatry is an independently operated service established in 2022 by Dr Robert Gordon, specialising in the assessment, treatment, support and prevention of mental disorders (including adult ADHD and adult autistic spectrum disorder). The service also helps individuals in these situations to reach their full potential, also addressing burnout prevention. 

The mission of the practice is to offer comprehensive and high-quality support to individuals facing challenges with their mental health and mental disorders.

Dr Robert Gordon completed his medical degree at Imperial College London in 2011 and became a member of the Royal College of Psychiatrists in 2018. His approach emphasises proactive measures to prevent mental illness by aiding individuals in realising their full potential, alongside providing treatment and assistance to those already grappling with mental health issues. Dr Gordon is also deeply committed to the prevention and management of burnout.

Dr Gordon has practiced as a Consultant Psychiatrist in the NHS since 2011 and has a wealth of experience in working with patients across a spectrum of mental disorders. His expertise extends to anxiety disorders, including post-traumatic stress disorder, obsessive-compulsive disorder, panic disorder, and generalised anxiety disorder, as well as mood disorders like bipolar affective disorder and depressive disorders. Additionally, he offers adult autism assessments and provides guidance and support following diagnosis, along with the assessment, treatment, and support for adult ADHD.

The service also has a personal story: Dr Gordon built the New Forest Psychiatry service after being inspired by his son who was diagnosed with an autistic spectrum disorder and ADHD, as well as the hundreds of patients he has supported. As per the company values, the service is committed to quality and innovation, integrity, collaboration and respect in all that the service does.
