Mental Health Assessment

Confidential GP-led mental health assessments at Phoenix Medical Group covering anxiety, depression, PTSD, ADHD, and stress-related conditions, with personalised care plans and optional teleconsultation.

Phoenix Medical Group offers structured mental health assessment services across all eight clinic locations, delivered by GPs with clinical interest in mental health and psychological wellbeing. The assessment begins with a confidential consultation to discuss the patient's symptoms, concerns, and personal history. A structured clinical interview is conducted, with physical examinations performed where necessary to rule out organic causes of psychological symptoms (e.g. thyroid dysfunction contributing to depression or anxiety). The GP evaluates the patient's presentation against diagnostic criteria and formulates a personalised care plan that may include psychotherapy or counselling referral, medication management, lifestyle modifications, or a combination of approaches. Conditions routinely assessed and managed include anxiety disorders, major depression, bipolar disorder, OCD, PTSD, schizophrenia, ADHD, sleep disorders, and stress-related burnout. Initial assessments typically run 30 to 60 minutes. Teleconsultation is available via Zoom or Microsoft Teams for patients who prefer remote access. Follow-up appointments monitor treatment response and adjust the care plan over time. Phoenix Medical's multi-location network ensures accessible, de-stigmatised mental health support embedded within a trusted primary care setting — reducing barriers for patients who may not seek help from a specialist mental health facility.
