I would never recommend Tom Coelho to assist with behavioral health issues. His approach is reckless and indifferent. My son went to him after many SSRI's that did not work. I went in as well at the request of my son to explain his extreme sensitivity to these strong medications. I had requested 15 extra minutes to advocate for my son. Each time I attempted to talk, Coelho put his hand an inch from my face 'to shut me up" . this rude and unprofessional behavior was startling! He uses OHSU education to 'add glamor' to his professionalism. However, I am well acquainted with OHSU, from it's rise to being a Federally funded hospital to the present. His behavior and thoughtless medicine prescribing would never be endorsed by this institution! In the end, the medications he prescribed for my son were ones worthless. After a genetic testing, we learned that Coehlo's choices were very dangerous for my son. My son broke down and called the office, but there was only a message direction him to a hospital if anyone had a problem. This kind of practicing is an outrage .The thought of him prescribing these dangerous medications to all ages, and not taking the responsibility to oversee the outcome of what he does is a disgrace! This 'profile' of reckless prescribing and poor monitoring supports why Oregon is rated worst in mental health care of all 50 states. read more
