This place traumatised me from seeking further mental health care for 6 years after my first consultation with a psychiatrist here. I forget his name, but I recall him as rude, dismissive and he glossed over the diagnosis process while charging me what felt like an arm and a leg at the time. It took me years to finally try seek help again.

For outpatients with delusional disorders, psychiatrists have long since established "depot consultation hours" in many places. Every two weeks, patients receive a sobering dose of reality there – often in groups and in a comfortable setting: Psychiatrist Finzen notes that the meetings for neuroleptics frequently create an "informal club atmosphere," and the convivial mood is "consciously fostered through the provision of coffee and pastries as well as the presence of therapists."
reception staff and specialists here are great, but the administration is atrocious. it’s a private hospital yet they still don't do escripts, which is a travesty. it's 2026- whatever excuse you could give me for not having escripts, I don't care. their booking system is also a mess. the specialists can’t even book you in themselves. you have to call reception and sit on hold every single time just to get your next appointment. the middle management here need to get their act together, clearly.

When I was at SJOG Burwood eleven years ago I found the range of programs patients could undertake absolutely gobsmacking. The food was beyond wildest imaginings with many hot choices offered at each meal and at lunch and dinner there was a large self-serve salad bar. Quite simply, no expense was spared and nobody seemed to be worrying... read more
