Dr. Hugo de Waal is a London-based consultant psychiatrist with years’ experience as an academic but also working as a leading psychiatrist in various hospitals and psychiatric units.
His experience stretches over more than 30 years and is backed by being a top student, professional and publisher of important articles and related material to help his students and colleagues – and patients – form a better understanding of the different mental health issues that millions in the UK alone are suffering from or struggling with.
Dr de Waal’s online service is easy to use and the perfect option for the patient that wants a diagnosis online as opposed to having to make a booking and see someone in their rooms in the city. One logs on to his website that carries some pertinent information about both himself and his services, and the conditions he diagnoses and treats.
His patients reach out to him from London, but also from much further away, and he can assist patients from all over the UK. Once a patient has made their online booking with Dr de Waal, video consultation is conducted, during which Dr de Waal takes the patient through the process in order for him (i.e., Dr de Waal) to form the best idea about how he can assist and come up with a diagnosis.
As a well-respected consultant psychiatrist, Dr de Waal is often approached for comment about his services. He said at a recent conference, “These days many patients prefer the convenience and anonymity of online consultation. I can totally understand that sentiment and want to assure those that I am here for them. It is convenient and may help create a certain distance between me and the patient, which is absolutely fine if that is their preference.
“I diagnose various conditions and make sure the patient feels comfortable and safe during our meeting. Please look at my website to form an idea of how I can assist, then get in touch via my online platform.”
Dr de Waal has a section on his website that discusses, for example, fees, as well as under what conditions the NHS will contribute towards the patient’s medicines. Dr de Waal makes sure that there is regular, proper communication between the patient and himself, right from the start throughout the complete process. In certain instances, patients are required to complete questionnaires before they meet online with Dr de Waal.
Dr de Waal is highly regarded as a top psychiatrist, and his services are highly recommended by his past patients.
