Media Enquiries

I have appeared on a number a major documentaries on OCD or BDD. I receive many media enquiries. I regret I cannot respond to all of you as I am just too busy! If you need information on BDD or OCD, please see the detailed information on this site. If you'd like to talk to an indiviudal with OCD or BDD, then it's best to contact OCD Action or The BDD Foundation who can usually put you in touch with individuals who are willing to talk to the media. I will not be able to put you in contact with any of my patients unless there were exceptional circumstances.  

I am usually unable to appear on TV without a couple of days warning as I cannot cancel appointments at short notice. I will not usually appear for a sound bite on Breakfast TV. It is much easier to help if you come to the hospital or for the radio if I can be interviewed over the telephone. If I am unable to assist I or my secretary may be able to recommend an alternative. Offers of serious documentaries will be considered but you should preferably have a programme or article commissioned as there too many of you who are trying to collect background information for me to respond.
