I have just completed a 28 day intensive inpatient stay at Bristol Priory for treatment for depression & anxiety. The whole team Priory is so kind & welcoming I found my care under Dr Radu Iosub & the whole team nothing short of excellent The therapy was amazing, & it was especially to have different types of therapy & have the exposure of different therapists who had vast experience. I found the group sessions surprisingly beneficial. The staff on Holbrook ward were so kind, I felt like it had a very protected family atmosphere & you had the quiet time you needed in your room if needed. The food wasn't as good as expected. The catering contract had just been changed & the food standard had dropped while I was staying but hopefully it's a time of adjustment & with feedback it will get better. My stay at the Priory has literally saved me & helped me find the skills to cope with my mental health better & not loose hope, which I will always be forever grateful.

My experience here overall has been absolutely amazing, the food is fantastic, the therapists are all wonderful and from the perspective of where I was and the battle against addiction that I had and continue to have! The priory bristol have taught me new ways of thinking and an understanding of myself at levels I never new existed.

Felt supported whilst in priory. Would have nice to have someone to proactively check in on me at the end if a day on the ward in case was anything I needed to chat about as ut didnt feel easy to do thst myself
