Thanks…read moreDoc, my life insurance was cancelled and even though I have been to a number of doctors, I have not had one who would second that diagnosis. I had monthly appointments for a long time. He would be writing the prescription as I walked in the door. Put me on anxiety meds with no questions asked or an attempt to warn of possible addiction. Rarely more than a few minutes in his office and it was time to write the check. I felt like I was meeting a dealer. It's all about the money.

He gave me a prescription for a med and it worked good and then the next refill, my current pharmacy changed manufactures and the it made me feel very sick. I called and left a message to let him know and he suggested that we send it to a different pharmacy which worked out the first time. Last month, he sent the med to the wrong pharmacy and I have been trying to contact him since. No response, the pharmacy reached out to him several times and he won't answer. Why would you put someone on meds and just stop responding? This med is horrible stopping and then starting again. I won't be back.

Id find someone else if I was really needing help because they have shown that they don't care to even return a telephone call. You can tell this is a common practice when you read other people's reviews. After seeing the CRNP, she had a meltdown and started crying because I ask her to explain the charges on my bill. She couldn't explain it. Was double charged for every visit. A $155 charge for a so called office visit and another $120 for a 45 minute session. THIS IS CRAZY. AVOID THIS PLACE AT ALL COST. What type therapist has a full blown meltdown and ask you to leave and still charges you? This one. I actually thought that I needed to swap seats with her. So very UNPROFESSIONAL.

However, due to a change in insurance, provider changing from one month to the next, I asked if I could self-pay for my initial visit. I offered to pay the full price office visit up front and well before my appointment but was refused and told I could no longer be seen. Unfortunately, this is a prime example of the complete lack of care in regards to mental health in the United States and why most who struggle with it, choose to do so alone because even the majority of doctors who "care" still see money for before they see anything else. It's speaks volumes of a physician and his office staff when an individual is desperate enough to seek the treatment they need that they are willing to pay whatever price necessary to even be seen and are still refused because they can bill the insurance companies for significantly more.

Horrible experience. DR. RABBANI is the rudest medical professional I have ever had the displeasure…read moreof meeting. I have a history of ADHD. When I received my diagnosis at the age of 35, it was life-changing. I remember thinking "is this how the rest of the world views projects, work, discipline, and anything requiring focus." I finally understood myself. Unfortunately, I needed a fresh start after a few years of not taking my medicine. Dr. Rabbani only looked at forms that I filled out (which only asks questions regarding anxiety, depression, and substance and physical abuse) and had less than one minute conversation before refusing to prescribe Aderral. I even told him it didn't have to be that particular med, if that was his concern. He made me feel like I was drug-seeking and was very argumentative. He said I was diagnosed too late for it to be accurate, that ADHD is only diagnosed in young people!!! He says I dont have ADHD, that I have anxiety and depression. I asked how did medications help me in the past if I dont have ADHD. His answer was that cocaine would help, but that didnt mean I should take it. When I questioned further for understanding, he said "I cant make it any clearer that I wont prescribe Aderral." He would not take a look at the medical records I had sent to his office. He only made an assessment based on a skewed questionnaire that I filled out when I was stressed. He asked "do you have any other medical issues *glances in my direction* other than being overweight." I told him I have sleep apnea which can cause the high blood pressure I'm having, but that its currently untreated because my insurance deductible is too high. He immediately questioned "oh you have money for Aderral but not to fix the root cause of your high BP." Aderral is $15 a month vs. $5000 for diagnosis and treatment of sleep apnea. He accused me of refusing his treatment plans when I told him my insurance deductible is too high for therapy. No attempt was made to understand why I feel I have, or why two previous Psychiatrists diagnosed me with ADHD. He clearly does not understand ADHD because zero questions were asked once he honed in on anxiety. I have trouble focusing, forgetfulness, executive function paralysis, trouble with every-day conversations, eye contact, hyper fixation and other BASIC symptoms. He did not ask about any of this. I genuinely felt like this man thought I was trying to "score" some meds. He mentioned people sell it on the street and made a cocaine reference twice. I will take a drug test if you want!! I feel that he took one look at me and made an assessment. Overweight: must be trying score adderral to lose weight. Why would a PSYCHIATRIST be so confrontational? I feel attacked. Dr. Rabbani does not understand financial strain and is very judgmental and condescending. These are not good attributes for a psychiatrist. Thank you for stealing a $50 copay from me and whatever balance awaits because I havent met my deductible.
