I am fully registered with the General Medical Council (GMC) in the UK with a licence to practice since 1999, a member of the Royal College of Psychiatrists since 2009, and on the GMC Specialist Register for General Psychiatry since 2013 (GMC number 4579557).

​

Background, Training, Skills, & Experience

IamPsychiatry is a well-established private mental healthcare service providing bespoke, confidential, and effective mental health assessment, psychotherapy, and medical treatment. I am the Director and an independent Private Consultant Psychiatrist and Psychotherapist since 2008. I have enjoyed and been privileged to be working as a British medical doctor and NHS psychiatrist for over 23 years, as well as a private Consultant Psychiatrist for over 15 years. It has been a pleasure to have successfully helped and treated over a thousand NHS and private patients. We have been increasingly busy assessing and treating private patients from all around the UK via Online video consultation including Google Meet, Zoom, MS Teams, WhatsApp, Apple FaceTime, and Skype.  

​

I was born, bred, and educated in London, and I graduated as a medical doctor from University College London (UCL) Medical School in 1999. Since 2000, I have trained and worked full-time as a psychiatrist in the NHS in Luton and Bedfordshire, and part-time since 2016 with East London NHS Foundation Trust (EFLT). I have worked as a Consultant Psychiatrist for people of working age (General Adult Psychiatry) since 2008. I have also been successfully treating private patients since 2007.  

​

Appreciating the mind-body link, I effectively use talking therapies and medication in combination for the safe and timely recovery of my patients. I have a special interest in Psychotherapy and I have trained in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Human Givens Therapy. I follow a biopsychosocial holistic approach to mental health assessment, treatment, and recovery, which seems to work well with my patients. I am grateful to consistently receive positive feedback from my patients, their families, and my professional colleagues. I received the iWantGreatCare Certificate of Excellence 2021, 2022 and 2023 for being most highly and consistently rated by my patients. 

​

As well as having extensive experience in successfully treating mood, anxiety, and psychotic disorders, I also have special interests in Addictions Psychiatry and Adult ADHD. I am experienced in preparing Independent Expert Psychiatric Reports for the Courts, Solicitors, Occupational Health departments, and private companies and clients.  

​

Over recent years we have been receiving daily enquiries regarding Adult ADHD screening, diagnosis, and treatment and has become a highly desirable specialist treatment service that we offer. 

​

Whilst English is my first language, I can also speak and understand Bangla (Standard Bengali) with basic proficiency.

​

Publications & Media

I contributed to this health article on alcohol published in the Daily Mail Online Health on 10th August 2017: "Are YOU drinking too much? Answer these 10 questions to find out: Experts reveal the classic warning signs you've become dependent on booze".

​

I was involved in the BBC Northern Ireland documentary "Life and Death on Heroin" broadcast in March 2019, which looked at the horrors of heroin addiction, its successful acute treatment, and long-term recovery. 

​

I was a co-author of the following published research article:

"The Role of Religiosity in Depression and Anxiety among Muslim Students in the UK: A Whole-Person Approach to Teaching and Learning", Zobeda Abdullah, Samantha Banbury, Amanda Visick, Iqbal Mohiuddin; Journal of Islamic and Muslim Studies; Indiana University Press; Volume 6, Number 1, May 2021; pp. 84-101.

​

Voluntary Roles

I am honoured to be the voluntary Consultant clinical supervisor for Reclaim Life in Leighton Buzzard, Bedfordshire, a successful and growing charity providing five free life coaching sessions based on the simple and effective Human Givens approach. All life coaches are volunteers receiving training and supervision with my guidance and support.

Recognised Health Care Provider

I am recognised by CIGNA, PruHealth, and Western Provident Association (WPA) as a private healthcare provider. Please discuss with your insurance provider about private referral and treatment with us, which we would be happy to support if needed. However, the vast majority of our private patients are self-referring and self-paying.
