Psychiatry for older adults

Dr Siddle has practised as a consultant psychiatrist since 2005 and in private rooms since 2009. Her clinical work is with older people and the conditions that arise or change in later life.

Dr Siddle is currently accepting new clinical patients, with a wait of around three months. She predominantly sees people over 65. Younger adults are seen where the referring GP has discussed the referral with her first.

• Memory and cognitive disorders, including dementia and its diagnosis
• Depression and anxiety in later life
• Psychotic illness, whether long-standing or new in older age
• Psychiatric symptoms alongside medical illness or after bereavement and loss
