Dr. Hana Al Geilani
MbchB U.K., MrcPsych U.K.
I’m a psychiatrist who draws upon a tapestry of medical knowledge, experience, and genuine compassion to recognize the intricate interplay between the mind and body. I believe in the importance of active and empathetic listening; thus, I use it to draw my diagnosis and craft comprehensive care plans that encompass both the medical and psychological aspects.
My mission is to provide a personalized holistic treatment plan by empowering people to embark on a journey of healing and self-discovery in order to embrace their true selves and unlock their full potential.
I value the importance of compassion and acceptance, recognizing the uniqueness of each individual. This motivates me to create an environment where patients feel comfortable expressing their thoughts and feelings openly.
I am a mental health advocate that spreads awareness and supports anti-stigmatization through public talks, educational campaigns, and community engagements. I promote ‘seeking help is a sign of strength’ and strive to shatter the misconceptions surrounding psychiatry.
