- Dr Bisati was kind, understanding and managed to build a rapid rapport with my 16-year-old daughter so that she felt able to voice her concerns freely. The report following our first meeting was thorough and showed that Dr Bisati had quickly identified her concerns and had grasped how she was feeling. The whole experience so far has been reassuring and very positive.
- Dr Bisati was great, very professional and listened to everything we had to say on our son. He gave great advise and came up with a great plan to help him.
- Amazing. We were well looked after from start to finish.
- We had an online assessment session with Dr Bisati for my daughter. It was very easy to book an appointment and easy communication during this booking - consultation. Good session for my daughter and pleased
- Dr Bisati was amazing - he was very kind and patient with our little boy, and he made us as parents feel at ease! He explained everything clearly and we left feeling positive about the treatment options!
- Dr Bisati is a very nice man who put my child at ease. He was able to help us in just the first session and was able to understand the issues very quickly whilst being very thorough. He was highly recommended to us and I can see why. There is nothing more terrifying than when your child is struggling, but finding someone like Dr Bisati who is so knowledgeable and professional in his field whilst also making young people (& us parents) feel at ease is a huge reassurance, & actually a life line.
- Would recommend Dr. Bisati for anyone looking for an ADHD assessment as we have had a great experience and Dr Bisati has good communication and is very knowledgeable.
