Initial 1 hr emergency consultation. Dr Lawrence listened, understood and was empathic in equal measure.
Dr Lawrence is thoughtful, calm and very easy to talk to. He listens properly, explains things clearly, and has a way of making difficult periods feel more manageable. I have always felt in very safe hands with him.
Robin treats the person, not the condition. He understands the context and history and considers more than just the chemical balance of someone's brain
My experience with Dr Lawrence has been excellent. He has been sensitive, insightful and pragmatic.
I have known Dr Lawrence for some ten years. He has an in depth understanding of my lifelong history of depression and manic behaviour ( bipolar disorder). He prescribes drugs which make me feel like life is woth living and we share our Christian faith.
Efficient. Kind. Listens. Professional. Lovely space. 5*
Dr Lawrence makes going to the psychiatrist fun and interesting. He thinks outside the box in order to help and I feel he cares about me. Highly recommended.
