Explanation

Dr Bernat first saw me in 2020 after a 6 year history of mental health issues and no help from NHS services. Instantly, I felt a sense of care and understanding from her, and everything was explained to me thoroughly. She has supported me through 4 inpatient admissions, and has helped me begin my journey to recovery.

I found Dr Bernat very understanding and kind. I am medically complex with both mental and Physical health conditions and she was happy to treat me when others wouldn’t. Dr Bernat was very sympathetic and caring. She treated me holistically and if I was as important as a member of her family.

Dr Bernat was my last hope in a long line of disappointment from the nhs. I only had to see her 4 times in which she liaised with my family and changed my medication and finally gave me a long awaited diagnosis. She was always aware that as I was self funding to try and keeps costs to a minimum. Whilst changing medications she was always available to help. I finally have a normal life again thank you to Dr Bernat.

Explanation

I saw Dr Bernat for derealisation. My symptoms had been seriously affecting every aspect of my life for months and I thought they would never go away. Her diagnosis was immediate and she instantly understood what I was experiencing. The medication she prescribed worked in 2 weeks and the symptoms have completely gone. She also addressed the underlying cause of the condition and I am confident that her recommendations will help me get better.

Explanation

Before being recommended to Dr Bernat I had previously consulted 3 different Psychiatrists. All they seemed to be interested in was prescribing anti depressants without even asking the reason for my depression. I was then at the lowest point in my life. After meeting Dr. Bernat she made me feel like she really cared and gave me the confidence that she would make me feel myself again - that seemed to be important to her. She had a sense of humor and was interested in my life. We tried a couple of different meds before we finally hit on the one that turned my life around. I feel like a new person.

Explanation

Dr Vella enabled me to open up and speak about experiences that had led me to needing additional help. Through talking and asking me questions to clarify I was able to explore things in a safe environment where I wasn’t judged on my thoughts and feelings and was encouraged to express myself. she helped me to see that often I don’t think about my own needs, rather ignoring myself. Dr Vella helped me to put issues into a different context and see that my emotions about this had an impact on my behaviours and well being. This helped me to move forward in my life with techniques on how to think about my own health and well being. Whilst at times it was extremely difficult to address issues, Dr Vella didn’t shy away from this but rather would give me the time to reflect and talk about it and also assure me that what I was saying was valid.
