GP Resources

Dr Adam Lake (GP)

Honest, evidence-based explanations of common conditions and their treatments — to support informed decisions.

I have written these resources to support conversations with patients: information to read and reflect on in your own time, meant to supplement clinical discussion rather than replace it.

Depression

Antidepressants

Anxiety

Counselling

These resources are evolving and regularly updated. Feedback from patients and clinicians is very welcome — suggestions, comments on what is helpful, concerns, differing perspectives, or relevant new evidence. The aim is to keep improving the clarity, usefulness and balance of the information. Please say whether you are a patient or clinician when giving feedback. Many thanks.
