Dr Saleem came highly recommended to us at a very difficult time. Our 14-year-old son was experiencing mental health issues and was close to a breakdown.
D Saleem was calm, composed and extremely professional. She quickly established a rapport with our son. It gave us a huge sense of relief and reassurance when she approached the issues he had in a methodical manner that appealed to him.
He was treated like a young adult and made to feel that his treatment and discussions would take place with his cooperation and consent which made him more open two accepting treatment options.
Dr Saleem guided us throughout his treatment journey. He is much better and totally different child from 6 months age when his symptoms started. I would not hesitate to recommend Dr Saleem and feel extremely grateful that she was excited wasn't our son needed.

Seeking an ASD assessment for my daughter was an emotionally difficult experience, facing the reality of her complexities and accepting that we needed to further adapt was daunting. I worried about how my daughter would feel if she had a label. But Dr Saleem and Dr Smith made the experience so positive for us all. Prompt and clear communication throughout helped. My daughter really liked Dr Saleem and Dr Smith.
A diagnosis hasn't changed much for us, other than we now have a shared language which enables us to explore situations, worries and issues. I would highly recommend.
Thank you Dr Saleem and Dr Smith
I just wanted to say thank you so much for the group you & your team ran, it really was very helpful.
You have always been incredibly supportive since we have been seeing you at CAMHS (or Rise), but I realise now that it’s more than just a job to you.
I always thought Olivia was just another name passing through the clinics, but I could see during the group, that you really care about your patients, it’s amazing that you remember them & their issues so well, rather than just off a brief description off their records.
You truly are a wonderful person & I really do appreciate the time you have given over the past six weeks at the group and countless appointments at your clinic.
We used Xcelsa Health for a private Autism assessment for our 9-year-old daughter. The process was very efficient, and communication was excellent throughout. We felt it was a very thorough assessment and incorporated all elements of the concerns we had about our daughter. The practitioners enabled a true response by helping our daughter to be comfortable and treating her with care and sensitivity. We would recommend this service to anyone seeking understanding about their child/children and their developmental and mental health needs." KP
I just wanted to thank you for making today as easy as possible for us.
N left feeling that she understood more about herself and she really liked you all.
Thank you very much
