Dr Dina Gazizova

Consultant Adult Psychiatrist

Adult

MBBS, MRCPsych

Dr Dina Gazizova is a specialist in the Psychiatry of Learning Disability; she currently works as a consultant psychiatrist for Central North West London NHS Foundation Trust in a specialist Learning Disability Service.

Dr Gazizova has particular experience in assessing and helping patients with Autism, Asperger’s, Downs Syndrome, and early onset Dementia as well as mental illness (e.g. psychosis, depression, anxiety)

I felt at ease with the consultant and she seemed to conduct a very thorough and in-depth examination which I do not think would normally have been available on the NHS.

Dr Gazizova is frequently instructed to write medico legal reports especially in the areas of fitness to plead and disposal.
