Useless psychiatrist. She can create more problems far beyond existing ones. She resolved my major depression and the tr...ust I formed only led me trail of events that I would never want to recollect. She started fine tuning after resolving my depression despite my concerns. After four months of fine tuning that went on a scale of increasing medications every 15 days with no sign to relieve me of them despite their side effects, she asked me to hospitalize in the end. Gave another medication to cause TD, NLM and if today I am alive and good then it is only because I of the decision to leave for my home country and a per chance miss in refill of the med in all the hassle. All effects of TD, NLM dropped down within 48 hours not to mention the absolute no-requirement for going to inpatient hospital treatment. On top of that she wrote all wrong (far from true) things in the records to avoid her being questioned. Worst person I have ever met in my life. more details
Worst psychiatrist ever. She is ok if it is clear what problem you have and if that is severe. Because she has a habit o...f giving strong medications over and above what you can endure. So, if you are suffering seriously from something then it is fine else there will be suffering on account of side-effects that she will keep ignoring despite all your requests, concerns or questions. She takes no accountability even if your life is at stake with the side effects. She may apologize but that is only a trap to avoid the patient saying anything wrong about her to others. If the person does, she may go far ahead portraying the person non-compliant and requiring hospitalization, not to mention accounting all the side/negative effects (that she knows are on account of medication) as symptoms of the patient's illness. One can only expect his/her life getting ruined with her maddening race to keep prescribing medications - if they are effective or not - that is none of her business. more details
