If you need a drug dealer, you have found him.
This "Doctor" is dangerous and if you are trying to actually get help for yourself and not just start up a bad drug habit find a real doctor.
I'll keep it short but informational, first off I know that I should most likely be put on some anti-anxiety meds but that's not all I need. I walked in and told Kunam repeatedly that if I had to take drugs I wanted the smallest does I could get due to fear of possible suicide since a family friend has done so in the past due to anti-psychotic's, as well as the main thing I was trying to get out of seeing him was to gain better coping skills, learn how to better deal with my anxiety and depression on an emotional level, and deal with past traumatic events that I simply cannot put behind me. He then prescribed me an anti- psychotic, pills for mood swings and Xanax twice a day and to go online and read self-help books. This had all happened in about 15 minutes. In, out and I had pills and that was all. Even though I had mentioned I needed to deal with coping better and everything else, not once did he say we only prescribe here or were don't talk here, just see you next week. The only thing that was close, was the red flag that went up when the only real emotional help he gave was a website for self-help books, and didn't even write it down.
And the next week yet again I'm in and out in 10 min's. He asks how the pills are doing. I told him okay I guess not feeling anything but that's because I literally have only been taking them for a day. And he tells me to bump up the Xanax to 4 times a day and six if I want to. And if he knew I wouldn't be able to get them sooner he would have given me samples.
This is all on top of many other major problems with this doctor.
- First off there's no need for appointments! I was told they allow walk in's between 1 pm and 8, my appointment was at 9 am. And I waited OVER and hour and a half, because of walk ins who also went in and out in less than 10 min's each. Another patient said the wait was normal.
- The entire waiting room was full with people standing inside and outside, no room at all.
- Both times I had gone here I'd enter his office and walked in with no greeting what so ever, nothing. I said hello how are you doing, out of awkwardness which he replied briefly and didn't even have the courtesy to ask back or anything really, and to a first time patient on top of it.
- His office is a hospital room, you walk in and the walls are white and bare except for 1 tiny picture. A small counter with mostly papers and stuff, his little table with laptop, and a standard black pleather couch with no pillows. Not comforting in anyway. Which is his choice because his student's office right across the hall is super comforting, walls painted, room décor, etc.
Now I understand some people really only need to have their hormones balanced and their fine, but I'm not one of those, I was extremely clear I'm not one of those. And to me if you know you only prescribe and someone comes to you for help saying they need to talk and deal with past problems, and maybe be prescribed with something and you remotely care about that persons wellbeing and not just their money you'd tell them we don't do that here you should find someone who can help you and not just give them more pills and another appointment for next week. Or at least tell them we can prescribe you pills but you're going to have to find a therapist too or something! Will never be going back, and I'm shaken that this was my first attempt to get help.
