This is a horrible mental health location and Randall Moskovitz, head psychiatrist is a monster. He held me against my will on a 72 hour involuntary commitment, held me for 8 days before allowing me to go to court and then lied on all required court papers so the judge held me for another fifteen days. He should be reported to the Tennessee medical board for abuse to patients. The staff say to me "I feel sorry for you." When I asked why the response was "you've been caught up in the system. You don't belong here." The nursing staff is deathly afraid of Moskovitz and would never speak against him. 21 days I spent in hell; it is a prison! I could say more but as a Ph.D. I will be writing about it and using his name!

Hi,

My name is Dana Michelle Scruggs. On October 31st, 2000, I was admitted to The Methodist Hospital - Memphis/TN psychiatric unit on the Thomas Wing of the hospital. I was admitted for having suicidal ideations.

My therapist at the time was Julie Johnson LCSW. She was employed at The Christian Psychological Center on Central Avenue in Memphis, Tennessee.

Ms. Johnson was the therapist who had me admitted to Methodist Hospital. After a mandatory 72 hour hold (standard care for suicidal ideations) Ms. Johnson was going to place me in an Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) to help me cope with the issues that had made me suicidal in the first place. Randall Moskovitz MD refused to release me from the Methodist Hospital Psychiatric Unit.

Julie Johnson could find no reason to hold me against my will since I was no longer a threat to myself or others. She voiced her concerns to Randall Moskovitz MD, who ignored her request.

I was then held against my will for several weeks. All of the staff psychologists, LCSW's, and counselors working on the psyche unit at that time (October 31st, 2000) agreed that I should not be held against my will! However, not one of them stepped forward to report Randall Moskovitz' illegal and unethical behavior.

Each time that I saw Dr. Moskovitz, he would tell me, "You are not going anywhere until you admit just what it was that you did that was wrong!

Even Dr. Jordan tried to talk Randall Moskovitz out of keeping me against me will . . . but Dr. Moskovitz would not budge on the matter!

In October of 2000 I was employed at Methodist Extended Care Hospital (MECH). I was a Registered Dietitian named "David M. Scruggs" at the time. Dr. Moskovitz made his "bread and butter" at MECH. Periodically, Dr. Moskovitz would say to me in private, "David, if you just confess and admit to your wrong doing . . . you can leave."

Peggy Strong MS, RN violated my patient privacy rights by discussing my psychiatric care with Dr. Moskovitz. You see, Peggy Strong was the second in command of MECH at the time. Ms. Strong had great distain for me, and would have done anything to hurt me.

So, you may be asking yourself, "Why is Ms. Scruggs stepping forward now?" The answer . . . I am just about to complete my MS in Marriage and Family Therapy (MFT). I now have the psychological fortitude to fight back.

At the time of the incident . . . after being locked up against my will for weeks . . . I was suffering from Stockholm Syndrome.

I am attaching a copy of the incident for your review. Please send me all of my medical records from the year 2000 (when I was hospitalized at your hospital). Also, send me all of the progress notes from my one on one visits with Dr. Moskovitz at his office.

Sincerely,


Dana M. Scruggs
