If I could give 0 stars I would. Please, please, PLEASE avoid this man, especially if you are a person of color. He has an ego the size of the sun and is a raging racist. He has, on multiple occasions, complained about my mother and father's accent, disregarded any struggle I have faced due to racism, called black people "blacks", and waved me off when I tried to explain to him why that was wrong. This is the same man who called an autism diagnosis "the kiss of death". This mindset is dangerous and I'm sure his clients/potential clients with autism would be hurt to hear him say this. During our very last session, we got in to an argument in which he accused me of calling him stupid (which I never said, but ... if the shoe fits), and then ripped up my prescriptions right in front of me. In a letter he sent me afterwards, he rubbed my traumatizing sexual assault right in my face, even implying that I was in part responsible for it. This man is childish, petty, and frankly disgusting. There are better psychiatrists in Vancouver, do yourself a favor and find somebody else.

The fact that he has a disclaimer at the beginning of his bio should be a red flag. I WAS a patient of his for 2 years and it was traumatizing. I believe every negative review written because I have my own experiences that confirm that this is who he is. Please do not see him, he will over prescribe you medication, misdiagnose you, and invalidate any and all struggles you face. I am only writing this so that nobody else will go through what I have with him.

Dr. Mortimer is one of the kindest psychiatrists I have ever worked with in the 23 years of managing my disease. He is brilliant, creative, humble, and compassionate. He cares about and takes care of his patients. He treats the individual in front of him and is extremely thoughtful about what he prescribes and recommends. He listens to his patients and treats you as an equal. I have thrived under his care.
