To the Greenwich consulting rooms where I regrettably saw Dr. Beverley Turner.

I saw her years ago, I wish I never did. She was extremely unpleasant controlling and aggressive and misdiagnosed me, Flirted with my husband and saw my husband behind my back, Gave me medication that was very unsuitable and I expressed that it made me feel very sick and completely drugged out where I could hardly take care of my children and she told me that I had to keep taking it or she wouldn’t treat me any more. I felt helpless and intimidated by her. She was very disrespectful, and I did not feel supported by her at all. I wish I had the courage to leave her a lot earlier in the peace. Thank God I eventually did and sort professional help elsewhere who categorically disagreed with her diagnosis and extreme high doses medication, Purely on the ground of my abusive And manipulative Very deceitful Insincere charming husband In public very different behind closed doors.

Fortunately for me I lost faith in her And found the courage to leave her and seek help elsewhere.

I felt very unsafe in her care but I didn’t know what to do because I felt threatened by her. She insisted that I take a massive dose of medication that drugged me out and I couldn’t feel well enough and awake enough to look after my children, but she told me that I had to take the medication early in the evening or she wouldn’t treat me any more , I felt very intimidated and unsafe, but I didn’t know what to do .

At that stage, I felt very vulnerable . I was too frightened to make a complete or to tell anybody as I had already spent a lot of time with her and telling her the reasons I was seeing her and it took a lot of energy and time on my part . I had a beautiful little baby boy and I was very exhausted and traumatised by all of the domestic violence control coercive control. Financial control manipulation and deception from my husband. .

For some reason I have no idea why And it was very unprofessional That she saw my husband behind my back, At the same time Dr Turner took a disliking to me And she turned aggressive and very unpleasant .

I didn’t know why then And couldn’t understand what was happening. In the beginning, I didn’t know really what she was like, But straight away she was very stern and quite aggressive in her communication , But I had nobody else and I am very trusting and assumed because she was a psychiatrist. She would have my best interest at heart and would support me and help me. She did not.

Dr Beverley Turner certainly pulled me in and insisted on diagnosing me very early on which I didn’t agree with . She didn’t know me well at all but she seemed to take a disliking of me after she saw my husband who she insisted she See on her own and without me , Even though I was her patient and my husband had nothing to do with her .

But she seem to give me no choice . She kept telling me It was for my own good . She would also say I see many patients like you , I know your type Type I have dealt with many people like you and you must take this medication because you need to be sedated in the evening and because you need to have a good night sleep . She did not believe me about the domestic abuse from my husband .

She just seemed to Disliked Me, she started to see my husband. Did Not Support Me, Other Doctors Disagreed, She Saw My Abusive Husband By Manipulating And Coercively Controlling Me And Became Unusually Close To Him. She would keep telling me that this was for the good of me And our marriage. Even though I expressed that I did not think this was right and why did she want to keep seeing my husband? She kept telling me this would help that she needs to speak to him. Even though I had told her that she was abusing me and gave her all the details Of my experiences and how this was traumatising me and making me very scared in my own home, And then I couldn’t trust him and was very frightened and confused about all his emotional games and control not to mention the financial control and I had no access to any money. None of our money at all even though I had lent him nearly $50,000 to cover all his debts and he was still in huge amount of debt which she knew All about but didn’t seem to care.

Only after a few months of seeing me she had cancer.
But she continued to reassure me that she was okay to treat me while she was in the middle of her cancer treatment . This is when I noticed that she became more aggressive and unsupportive and emotional and unpleasant even more . She treated me whilst She was in the middle of her cancer Treatment and medications and wore a material headgear over her head because she had lost her hair. She seemed to gey very angry and aggressive and adamant that if I didn’t take the medication she told me she wouldn’t treat me any more and no one would be able to help me, because she said she was the best .

She kept telling me to trust her and she asked to see my husband On his own and without me . She told me this was for my own good so she could gain his trust . She said she was there to help me and she even said was on my side and not to worry.

She said this was the best thing for me And that she would be able to find out what he was like and work out why he felt the need to control and abuse me and she would try to help him to stop and get help .

She also told me that I shouldn’t be in the appointment with him and that she needs to speak to him on his own she could gain his trust and therefore help me .

None of this seemed right but I thought she was trying to help me so she would be able to figure him out and realise that he is a very very manipulative charming and deceitful man and very controlling. I thought she would see that and figure that out very soon.

But instead, she seemed to change quite a bit After seeing him and I don’t know how many times she did because my husband didn’t tell me and she didn’t fill me in and tell me anything but I know that he was seeing her. When we came together and saw her together, she was unusually quite flirtatious and excited to see him, and Very Dismissive of me and more interested in what he had to say and she directed the conversation between herself and him and often ignored me and intimidated me, And it became very unpleasant and impossible to talk to her.

I honestly couldn’t believe what was happening, but I ignored it because I didn’t want to believe it. It’s hard to explain, but you have an instinct, but I just didn’t know what to do because I didn’t feel safe and at that stage I thought she would do something to make me feel unsafe and have ill intent towards me.

She kept telling me to be quiet when I did see her. I was seeing her for talk therapy as well. She kept telling me if I didn’t take this high dose of Medication that made me so drowsy I couldn’t even keep my eyes open early in the evening to take care of my own children.

She would tell me that that was fine and that I should let my husband take over so I can have a good night sleep. Good night sleep With the tablets she told me I had to take completely ang utterly disrupted my life and made things worse. I was frightened and so drowsy I could hardly walk myself to bed. I could hardly get up to go to the toilet and it made me So tired that I was feeling delirious and couldn’t even hold a conversation or talk to anybody nor be able to take care of my children. I was the primary carer and full-time parent.

Yet she insisted on The drugs she gave me. I was told by my GP and the psychiatrist I saw after I left her because I increasingly felt unsafe and unsupported by her And did not feel she had my best interest at heart and wondered if she ever did.

She was very biased and seem to enjoy to see my husband and see him on his own. My husband is often a very charming and flirtatious man with other women, And enjoyed making me feel very insignificant. And when I did see her with my husband, she just kept telling me to be quiet and shut up, And many times was quite aggressive and very unpleasant to me in front of my husband as well .

All I felt I could do it. The end was say very little so I wasn’t humiliated in front of my husband. I wasn’t even able to give my opinion. This seemed to please my husband and please Her. It really did become a nightmare and I didn’t know what to do or how to get out of it . I was also a full-time Mother and didn’t know who to turn to and felt very vulnerable and intimidated by her as well as my husband . Yet I was her patient and my husband was not her patient.

I regret ever going to see her. And I give you my word as God is my witness she is not safe to be with. And she can easily take a disliking to you, especially if you are a woman . This was my experience and ironically I heard from other patients in the waiting room as well that seem to have similar experiences .

I do not recommend her at all and regret ever seeing her. She Ended up being detrimental to my health and well-being and made me even more unsafe with my husband and locked further into more abusive merry-go-round of Abuse from my husband . I felt vulnerable because I had a littke boy And had no family nearby to help and support me. Only his big controlling and religious family Who were also very dominant and controlling.

She could easily Take a disliking to you because you are a woman and she seemed to become very jealous and controlling And most unpleasant. She became rude and aggressive, Intimidating and threatening, and not respectful and supportive of me at all. She seemed to be insistent that I be sedated heavily at night and that my husband was to take over. Even though I told her that I wasn’t coping with her insistence of a high dose of very sedated medication whilst I was the primary carer of my Beautiful little baby, But she insisted that this was the only medication that I could take, And insisted that there was nothing else for me and that her diagnosis was the only one. I wish I had listened to my instinct but I felt very vulnerable as a first time mother and with no family nearby living in London and only a husband who was becoming increasingly controlling and I felt unsafe, controlled, Very manipulated, intimidated and not heard, and afraid And nowhere else to go. I was exhausted and didn’t want to start all over again with a new doctor at this point in my life. So I tried to trust her. I had nobody else To turn to, No Family to help me, And was increasingly controlled by my husband financially emotionally and psychologically and sometimes physically. And she convinced me to trust her and that she would help me with Andy.

She did not help me at all, nor my marriage. She only made the abuse worse from my husband as she seemed to support him more instead of me . In fact She became detrimental to myself, my health and well-being. Thank God I got out and listen to my instincts.

She was detrimental to my health and well-being far worse than I ever thought possible. I expressed this to her and told her I did not want to continue therapy with her more. She was very rude and dismissive of me. And told me to go and was most unpleasant and intimidating. .

Apparently, she kept seeing my husband. God only knows what for. Eventually I found out and she had written a very rude one-sided unprofessional letter to my GP who I had known for over 20 years, And has fully supported me and did not agree with her letter nor her diagnosis nor the medication she coerced me into taking.

My GP I knew for over 20 years was very supportive of me and sorry that I was referred to Her by her colleague at the same clinic . She referred me to a psychiatrist who could change the medication and she thought could help me. She was also a professor. After a few years of seeing her regularly and with my children who had to come with me because I had no one to look after my children as my parents lived in London. We are from Australia, but my parents moved there for work .

This psychiatrist I prefer not to give any names, For privacy And respectful reasons, Although if required to follow through with this complaint, I will and I have written Doctors reports to follow this up, Who is Support and disagree with the way she treated me her diagnosis and her drugs that she put me on and that she should not have been treating me in the middle of her cancer diagnosis and treatment and drugs she would have been taking.

Both my doctors reported that they did not agree with her diagnosis and felt it very unprofessional and wrong that she was treating any patience while she was in cancer treatment with drugs and therapy, very aggressive and angry And not in her right mind .

But she didn’t seem to care about that and apparently she continued to treat people all through her cancer diagnosis and treatment.

I can’t tell you how much she ruined my life at the time and for years afterwards. The damage she did was harrowing and it is only with the health of my doctor that I have been able to heal somewhat from the trauma she put me through and now have the courage to talk about it and make this complaint which I will be taking further if necessary And as per advice.

My ex husband Who I fled from his domestic violence with my children to a domestic violence refugee for nearly 5 months to get away from him . My children were put in my care for 70% of the time after my husband took me to Family Court for access to the children which I never prevented him from the police and violence. Legal Aid advised me to wait for the proper court proceedings to protect me and my children. .

But my husband easily charmed Dr Beverley Turner, and she seemed to enjoy seeing me alot and acted giddy and flirtatious with him. And very dismissive And disrespectful of me. She would flit with him and be frivolous And when we had an appointment together, she would focus on my husband and support him against me:

Yet again, I was her patient and my husband was not her patient at all.

I found out later that she was seeing my husband behind my back. It was an absolute nightmare.

My Psychiatrist I saw next , did not agree with her diagnosis No Her extreme levels of medication and did not find them necessary at all . Neither did my GP Who I knew For 20 years .

And neither has any anyone else with any profession ever referred to me as she has referred to me and I have never been prescribed her medication since I left thank God.

I have been fully supported by my GP and psychiatrist ever since. And they do not support what she wrote and And did not agree with her and did not support her biased and unprofessional opinions With no basis at all.

. I have a medical report from both of my doctors my GP and my psychiatrist who state they did not agree with her and didn’t find any truth in what she wrote.

To say it was a nightmare is an understatement.
I left her for all the above reasons For my own safety and peace of mind, And knowing it would only get worse,

dr Beverly Turner became extensively detrimental to my health and well-being.

I categorically advise you not to seek her out. I do not recommend her at all. I will be following this by lodging a formal complaint.

Regards SD
