He literally ruined my life as a teenager and just tried to cover side effects of one pill with another so I wouldn't die. I gained almost 80 lbs in 6 months.

I came to Kavalier & Associates when my favorite mental health professional had to retire. Meeting…read moremy standards after my previous mental health professional was going to be difficult. I came to Kavalier and Associates at the recommendation of my brother and sister-in-law. Dr. Kavalier sees their daughter who is on the autism spectrum. They sang his praises highly. I had my diagnosis in place when I came to Kavalier and Associates as well as a medication regime that was working for me at the time. Over the few years I have been going to Kavalier and Associates, I have worked with them to adjust my meds as needed and sought out counselling as needed. I have never been uncomfortable or made to feel unwelcome. On a side note, I do think it is important that the patient, or the patient care providers play an active role in knowing what meds the patient is on and what side effects they can have. There is no doctor, at least that I am aware of, who can force a person to take a medication that he does not want to or that his care providers say "no" to.

I was advised there was not a female provider that I could see. When I mentioned scheduling elsewhere with a female provider, I was advised that I could no longer see the provider I was scheduled with at this clinic, and would need to pay $200 for canceling my appointment that they made me cancel because I was uncomfortable. The receptionists are very rude and unprofessional. Once you mention going somewhere other than to their clinic, they treat you terrible. I would advise going LITERALLY anywhere else.
