During my appointment, I never once felt listened to or understood. He didn't seem to care about anything I had to say. I feel like my appointment was pointless. None of my questions were answered, nothing was accomplished, and I felt MUCH worse when I left. It really bothers me that every time I visit him, I have to re-explain why I'm there and my situation, because he never remembers. He doesn't even get my file out during our visit. It makes me feel like he don't listen to me while I'm there. I once said "I want help" and he said "It sounds like you're asking for help". No, it doesn't sound like it, it is it.
After refusing to discuss the risk/benefit of my medication telling me "you'll have to figure it out", he had the audacity to tell me to help myself. When I asked for some advice on how I might go about helping myself, he said he didnt have any. I am now coping with a debilitating mental illness with no medical care simply because of this man's ability to make me feel worse every time I see him, plus a total lack of efficacious medical care. I'm shocked this man is allowed to see patients.
