Dr Patil is extremely kind, patient and reassuring. She put me at ease immediately and I felt really “got” me and my issues. I feel 100 times better already just having her on board and having spent an hour in her care. Cannot recommend highly enough.

My daughter has been showing symptoms of ADHD since she was a child and has never properly been diagnosed. After doing a lot of research on various consultants we decided to go with Dr Prajakta Patil. My daughter and I are so pleased that we made the right decision. We feel she is absolutely the right consultant for her condition. Dr Patil was lovely and made us feel at ease. She was very professional and thorough with her investigations and we are now in the process of getting help for my daughter. I feel that we are finally getting somewhere and feel confident that Dr Patil will help my daughter with this process. I was so pleased with Dr Patil that I have recommended her to 2 of my friends who are in a similar position as I am.
