Seen this man for sixteen years. I have been dealing with anxiety and panic attack since I was 10…read moreyears old. This man put me on benzo's for anxiety and the panic attacks when I would see him he would ask me how I was doing with my anxiety. I would tell him sometimes it's worse than others. He would ask me how I was taking my medication. I told him I was taking it only as I needed it. He would say if you would take it as I prescribed then you would not be having problems with the anxiety and panic attacks. These medication's are not a cure they do not keep you from having anxiety nor do they keep you from having panic attacks. Hence the reason they are called attacks. But after arguing with this man countless times on different visits about this problem, I decided to start listening to him. He had me on 2 mg three times a day. I also had a huge red flag pop-up once when I was trying to get his prescription filled at a Walmart and they informed me they would not fill anything from Dr. Glenn Archibald. That should have spoke volumes to me really it did, but I ignored it to be honest. Three years ago now he ask a question to me that struck a cord, do you believe that Benzo's should only be given to patient's temporarily? Being a retired nurse my answer was absolutely yes he suddenly grabbed his notebook and started writing. I found myself as I have wanted to do for years, but now to his demand being winged off. So within a three month period I found myself going from 2 mg three times a day down to 2 mg twice a day that point it was time for me to see him again. Suddenly I went from 2 mg twice a day to 1 mg twice a day I knew after being on this medication for so many years, this was not a safe nor ethical decision. There was a point during the years that I was seeing him. I asked him about getting off of the benzo's, and his reply was you will be on this medication for the remainder of your life. Let me also add during this time of us discussing me coming off of the benzo's. I also tried everything known to man for anxiety. Nothing else worked except the benzo's unfortunately. Long story short, my father is on his deathbed. I am taking care of him till he passes. I am constantly going into panic attacks. I made a call to his office I was told he would not send anything for me, but he would set up for me to be canceled. At that point, I knew with this man being so uncaring, heartless, unethical in his treatment for patients that he supposedly cares so much about that I had to find somewhere else to go with someone else to see I was going through the hardest point of my life and my psychiatrist said to me basically he could not help me. I am still struggling trying to get completely away from this medication, am now down to 1 mg per day. I started this three years ago I wish I had never laid eyes on the first one. I do agree benzodiazepines should not be given to patients not even temporarily, but when you have been on those for 16 years and they are the only thing that works and if it's the only thing that works for you then it's the only thing that you can turn to and that's the big dilemma that I have found myself in unfortunately, but I have found somewhere else to go on someone else to see I used to thank God for Dr. Glenn Archibald now I wish to God I had never met him! If I continue to go with my gut instinct and do what I felt, I knew was best for me because we as the patient know our bodies better than our doctors do, but if I had only listened to my gut instinct and not to this doctor I would not be in this situation I'm in today and have been in the hell that I have been going through for the past three years so to any of you that are as much as thinking of seeing him, run do not walk, RUN! Find you someone that cares someone that is ethical someone that is trustworthy and that will listen to you and I mean honestly listen to you and will not try to force what they think you should be doing even when you find yourself knowing in your heart this is wrong. We have to keep in mind. These people are doctors. They are not God and those who put themselves in the category of having a God complex should not be practicing.

I've read all of these reviews and I just don't get it‼‍ I've been seeing Dr. Archibald for over 15…read moreyears and he is the ONLY DOCTOR that put me on track. I'm paranoid schizophrenia with psychosis with PTSD. Homicidal ideation and sociopath tendencies. I'm considered a THREAT to society‼ If it wasn't for this Doctor, Mr. David and Mr Rick, I wouldn't be here‼ I don't have any problems with medication being refilled or getting an appointment‼ You'll have to realize he's only 1 doctor that comes only once a week to service over a hundred patients‼ His ( Bedside manners) never disappoints me. I have Tardive dyskinesia from the Psych meds. That doesn't come from no fault of Dr. Archibald and you have to see a neurologist to treat that condition. IF IT WASNT FOR Dr.A, it'll be a lot of hurt MOFOS around here‼ I'm from Chicago and believe me, not only will they ignore you up there but you'll be in the office for hours‼ Your entire process in Chicago will have you committing suicide before you even start‼ STOP LOOKING FOR QUICK FIXES AND IMMEDIATE RELIEF, Mental Illness is an lifelong and exhausting process‼

Maybe even longer than that as I have not received my $180 back that they owe me and I am 5 days shy of the month they say they have to refund it. Even though I know my insurance mailed out a check to them for the visit the same week I went there. The Therapist is a joke. She is full of opinions and forces them on you as if they are facts. She told me that I needed to wipe my child's soiled bottom with one of my fiancé's shirts if he didn't plan on helping me change diapers. After I said I would not do something like that she told me it would only take one time and he would help me change diapers. She answered the phone and wouldn't answer my question about my refund and said someone would have to call me back on Monday. Today is Thursday. When I asked her why she didn't know how I would receive my refund, she tried to say she was just an answering service. I know for sure it was the therapist. She has a very distinct voice. Do not use this place. My guess is she only gets court ordered people anyway.
