"A man who knows the meaning of life and death"

A review of Dr G A Badrawy by Allyson written on Wednesday 1st of April 2009

I have been under the care of Dr Badrawy for over a year now, and I am living proof of my gratefulness, my mum now has a daughter instead of a real worry, and I am continuing to build my life and continue after suffering depression on and off mildly and seriously for 20 years, vulnerable to the real world, and trying to cope with real world life events, helpless as were my family to get real help and acknowledgment from local gp's, who I now know should and could have but didn't help and if they did try I was too far gone to realise, perhaps everytime they saw me they thought I was having a bad day for 7 years. Every month or so now I notice my improvement, my life has now got a future instead of being an unwanted routine, I have my friends to enjoy, and the judgement to recognise them, I am friendly but also street smart once again, rather than a walking victim, I feel confident under Dr Badrawy's wing and my family are relieved after years of worry (the strain from my mothers face has gone) that I have finally got what I needed and deserved. My overall health has greatly improved, I enjoy my hobbies, I've taken up past hobbies and have got intreseted in new ones. I now trust people to care for my animals. I've made more friends, and recognise their niceness and vulnerabilities, oh nearly forgot I no longer need retail therapy, not that I don't enjoy spending money shopping I'm a woman after all.

I remember my childhood fondly recognising the love and support of my family, the community, clubs and activities we participated in, and how wonderful and kind my dad was to me, I can now bear to visit and respect his grave after years of painful avoidence. I can now respect my mothers mourning and am not as overly emotionally and pyschologically dependent.

Many thanks must also go to Slyvia Dr Badrawy's secretary whose kind voice has been on the end of an anxiously made phone call. I am more confident in fitting into society and in return not so judgmental of others, I independently make aquaintances and value them ( remembering a name for a start instead of blindly voiding everyone )

My work ethic has returned with regard to quality, I understand myself enough to be kind to myself with regard to work stress, and am working productively however at the moment not full time, but I do see other things available in my life that are important for that time.

My thought's do not scare me or disturb me or hurt me anymore.

I missed my last appointment due to flu and was so looking forward to seeing him, (but not the drive admittedly).

All the above is really about me, not Dr Badrawy,

what can I say about him, but, what a guy and all that Jazz!!
