Testimonials
“Dr Isi is outstanding. Her kindness, care and compassion go above and beyond the call of duty. I am very lucky and privileged to have her as my Psychiatrist.”
Client
“Dr Isi was professional throughout my time with her. I felt at ease and comfortable, which helped me open up. Each appointment was thorough and my family was considered. My only regret was losing such a great doctor, who was helping me cope better, and who changed my medication which enabled me to live a better quality of life. I have not found another caring and professional doctor like her.”
Client
“Dr Isi is professional and friendly. She’s a great listener and I always feel appreciated during appointments. I find her easy to speak to and I strongly value her thoughts on situations I approach her with. She also sets me homework which I find very constructive when completing, helping me to arrange my thoughts and priorities and overall giving me a better view of my life.”
Client
“Dr. Nwokolo is an outstanding doctor in the way she has delivered treatment in a hugely difficult mental health and safeguarding landscape, in the way she has delivered timely reports, written and telephoned on our behalf, giving of her own time. This has contributed to building trust between us, beyond than we've had for any other professional. She usefully uses anecdotes and analogy to frame another way of seeing things, she is gentle and kind, she is easygoing and approachable.”
