Cambridge Street Day Unit

Dr Donnelly a senior psychiatrist consultant at Ballendon House Edinburgh lied in her notes and gave me a wrong diagnosis and then turned aggressive . I have felt out of sorts for years it took me years to get seen and then I was given an abrupt and incorrect diagnosis , minus any true examination of my own background. Due to the protracted strength of Donnelly's word I've been refused a second assessment by her pals at Cambridge Street even though , several GP's have conveyed on my behalf that I was not satisfied with Donnelly's , confidence trickster routine. I latter found out that she applied non of the background checks and investigation , that a decent Psychiatrist would have. In order to conclude with a diagnosis. Like most I have paid taxes into the system It is actually my right to get a unbiassed second opinion , and one that steam from a proper assessment not an abrupt and uninviting one from an English import like Donnelly When I asked for a copy of my notes she ignored my official letter. I was given a wrong diagnosis and obstructed from making a complaint in time by NHS Lothian. This vindictive narcissist pausing as a Psychiatrist has also ensured that I can't get a second opinion elsewhere , as it will obviously embarrass her and call into question her appalling unprofessional conduct. I should have been given a diagnosis of ADHD and supported with a proper treatment plan . Dr Donnelley laughed like an evil itch when I tried to ask for help or at least therapy. The evil itch laughed and seemed to take satisfaction of the em pass the crocked NHS system permits employees like Donnelley to construct to the detriment of patients and their quality. of life. In order to embolden professional abusers like Donnelley.

World Mental Health Day today, and my step son had to wait one and a half hours at Cambridge St House to get his bloods taken by the phlebotomist! What does that say about how the staff at Cambridge St house view their patients who have mental health problems? Would any of the Consultants or any of the other staff who work at Cambridge St House like to have to wait one hour and thirty minutes to get their bloods taken? How can we expect the wider community to treat people with mental health problems with respect when they are treated like something on the bottom of someone`s shoe at Cambridge St House? One of the phlebotomists retired a month ago, which means there is now only one nurse instead of two taking the patient`s bloods. Why has she not been replaced, or do they think it`s alright to treat patients with mental health problems like second class citizens who have no rights? Why does no one at NHS Lothian or Cambridge St House ever respond to the reviews about this place? Don`t they think patients who have mental health problems are worthy of a response?
