Our clinical team

The doctors behind the practice

Caledonian Psychiatry was founded and is led by Dr David Crocker, and the practice is Scotland’s first independent medical agency to be regulated by Healthcare Improvement Scotland (registration 03427). Every clinician working here is a psychiatrist, fully registered with the General Medical Council and holding Membership of the Royal College of Psychiatrists (MRCPsych).

Whichever doctor you see, the fees, standards and clinical approach are the same, and your care stays with the same named psychiatrist from your first appointment onwards. Both doctors offer ADHD, autism and combined assessments, so you can choose whoever suits you when you book. Dr Kamaledeen has his own booking page. If you are unsure who would be the better fit, get in touch.
