Brilliant doctor. Really helped me. Thank you.

G.W. 11/12/2020

Not only listens to what is being said but also the way it is said, which makes a huge difference. He also asks for clarification rather than assumes. Overall a great professional whom I would like to thank.

K.G. 11/12/2020

First time with Dr Alan. He identified a few extra issues I have that had been missed over the years. He Was able to offer great advice, comes across very friendly, is easy to talk to and likes the detail of problems you may have to give you the best help

W.A. 11/12/2020

Dr ogilvie was very helpful every time I spoke to him

J.P. 11/12/2020

Outstanding clinical acumen, knowledge and communication skills. Exudes empathy and human kindness. Hope giving and life sustaining. Fair, tolerant, non judgemental and containing. Fact I was a consultant psychiatrist posed no problems in our relationship

S.L. 15/12/2020

Excellent doctor, he really listened to me at a time when I felt very unwell, he took time to explain things and gave excellent advice. Also the communication between himself and my GP was very good.

S.M. 29/12/2020

Alan was extremely informative and reassuring. Our appointment with him was a very positive experience despite the despair, which my partner was feeling at the time.

E.K. 01/01/2021

Dr Ogilvie saw me for my initial consultation. I felt listened to and supported. I felt like he swiftly and expertly diagnosed my issue which made me feel very reassured. Thank you Dr Ogilvie!

P.D.l.w. 02/01/2021

He took time and listened. His advice consultation was clear and practical.

L.J. 13/01/2021

Very easy to talk to and was thorough in his approach. Involves the patient in discussion regarding their care. Highly recommend.

Y.M. | Oxford 24/01/2021

Dr Ogilvie has helped me greatly through an episode of depression. I can’t thank him enough. He is clear, caring, very professional and i felt very safe in his care.

S.P. 11/02/2021

I have seen Dr Ogilvie twice. The first time I was very anxious and in an agitated state. His manner was exactly what I needed at such a difficult time. I was very pleased to have him on my second visit.

J.G. 03/03/2021

Had bipolar disorder for 35 years. Had first appointment with Dr Ogilvie as disappointed with continuity and expertise in NHS treatment. First appointment could not have gone better, his knowledge and understanding of the disorder was very impressive

N.G. 09/03/2021

i particularly appreciated my view of the side-effects of a previous treatment being accommodated and this made me feel much more accepting and willing to comply. The video call was handles sensitively, and Dr Ogilvie was very clear and informative

G.T. 10/03/2021

I can't recommend Dr Ogilvie enough - through his expertise, knowledge, understanding and care I have come through a very difficult and anxious time of my life that my GP had no real clue how to deal with. Thank you Alan very much!

H.C. 12/03/2021

Dr Olgivie is relaxed and made me feel relaxed. His demeanour is caring but also quick to pick up what help and advice I needed. I had a consultation on zoom which was an added bonus. It is less intimidating to be in a space that is familiar to you.

S.M. 19/03/2021

Dr Ogilvie is a great listener has a lot of knowledge and is reassuring , receiving great treatment. I would definitely recommend Doctor Ogilvie , great Bed side Manner , very friendly. Not long waiting time, quick responses.

E.E. 29/03/2021

Dr Ogilvie was very professional and kind. I was nervous at the appointment but his calm and reassuring manner really helped. He explained things clearly and I felt listened too. Thank you .

K.T. 09/04/2021

Dr Ogilvie is very thorough and knowledgeable, I've moved from the United States, and he picked up on my situation very quickly, it is very comforting to see how he has accommodated my situation.

f.s. 14/09/2021

I was so relieved to be able to get an appointment quickly. Dr Ogilvie took a thorough history before explaining the issues and discussing treatment options. I found him to be patient, sympathetic and helpful. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him.

S.R. 19/07/2021

Dr Ogilvie is very approachable and easy to talk to. He did come up with a treatment plan for my husband when other psychiatrists had failed to help us. I would definitely recommend him to anyone struggling with bipolar disorder.

L.C. 23/08/2021

I've never gone private before, but decided to on this occasion purely due to NHS psychiatry waiting times. Dr Oglivie has been an absolute revelation. After only three 1 hour sessions with him and changed medication I'm already feeling massively better.

P.W. 11/09/2021

Dr Ogilvie helped me in a time when I was feeling helpless. I thought he was very understanding and supportive. He answered all of my questions and gave me hope that with the treatment plan I will get better in no time.

K.G. 23/09/2021

Dr Ogilvie was very kind to offer me an appointment at pretty much the last minute. He was very thorough with the assessment and prescribed me the treatment that, even still early to tell, has already made a big difference.

O.R. 23/09/2021

Had a very rewarding 90 minute consultation with Mr Ogilvie, who I would thoroughly recommend. I was very apprehensive regarding the zoom meeting as I had never used zoom before but it was so simple . Very straightforward

K.L. 04/10/2021

Really happy with the appointment, Dr Ogilvie was extremely thorough and really listened to me. Looking forward to starting new medication.

J.T. 22/10/2021

Really enjoyed Dr Alan, have seen him about bipolar disorders, he have a quite methodical approach that is necessary and attention to detail. After so many bad experiences it's really comforting and I feel that I'm not facing my illness alone.

R.S.L.M. 23/10/2021

Dr Ogilvie contacted me the same day I booked my appointment to discuss my needs. I was initially concerned after reading reviews regarding appointments and wait times via TopDoctors. My experience was excellent and I would highly recommend this service.
