Royal College of Psychiatrists

The College receives regular enquiries from Members of the College and GPs regarding patients who are unable to speak English. We are asked if we can give the name of a psychiatrist able to communicate with patients in their own language. This list is also used by the central offices of the Mental Health Act Commission.

The languages we cover at the moment are as follows (the number in brackets indicates the number of doctors who speak that particular language):

• Azerbaijain (1)
  
• Arabic (5)
  
• Bengali (6)
