Can You Prescribe Specialist Medications for Depression That a GP Might Not Offer?

Yes. At Harley Street Mental Health, our consultant psychiatrists are experts in prescribing a wide range of specialist depression medications that are often not available through a GP in a primary care setting. We base all our prescribing decisions on the internationally recognised Maudsley Prescribing Guidelines, ensuring that every treatment plan follows the latest evidence-based best practice.

Because of our specialist training and experience, we are able to prescribe advanced treatments for depression, including second-line and third-line antidepressants, combination therapies, and medications tailored for treatment-resistant depression. Many of these options require careful monitoring and specialist oversight, which GPs may not be equipped to provide.
By accessing a private depression assessment with a consultant psychiatrist, you benefit from a broader choice of treatments and a highly personalised, expert-led approach to your mental health care.

Complaints

At Harley Street Mental Health, we recognize the importance of listening to our patients concerns with a view to continue to improve the quality of our services.

We assure you that raising a complaint will not harm or prejudice the care you, or the person you care for is given, but will rather help us improve our service and ensure that we get things right next time. It also gives us the opportunity to rectify the situation.

If you are unhappy with any aspect of our service, then please contact us on complaints@hsmh.co.uk once we receive a complaint, we will speak to the staff and clinician involved to find out what has gone wrong, and then work with you to see how things can be resolved. We aim to respond to complaints within 30 days except in exceptional circumstances.

If you are unhappy with our response for any reason, then we will have the complaint reviewed by our medical director and seek the best solution.
