I told her and she confirmed a time. As she rushed me off, I said excuse me which location will I be going to? She said Poughkeepsie and hung up. I called back to find out the address and doctor name and a different girl picked up and said she didn't know why I thought I had an appointment because I'm not in the system... she told me no one there makes appointments and to call the 485 phone number for intake. I called the number and left a message. My returned call happened a few hours later but I was informed there's no appointments until next month (which is fine) and that my first appointment will be intake. After all this confusion I decided not to go here. I sincerely hope the doctors find out how their staff handles the calls. I've worked in the medical field a long time and this nonsense would've gotten someone fired.

Five stars for my providers, two for Spectrum itself. I found two wonderful, wonderful providers…read morehere who I am very happy with and trust very much. That being said, the administration end of this business is AWFUL. I've been double-booked and overcharged more times that I can count. They need to get their act together big time. If you just keep your receipts when you pay and make sure to double or triple-confirm all of your appointments ahead of time, you should be okay. It's not the most convenient thing in the world...but doing this has allowed me to see wonderful clinicians who I would follow anywhere, so I've made my peace with it.

As soon as I met Dr.Kirsch I was very comfortable with him. I haven't seen a psychiatrist in years…read morebut after going back to school I wanted to go back on my medication. He's easy to talk to, very accommodating, and professional. The only thing I wish I could change would be for him to accept my insurance! Although, he did as much as he could to help me out in the financial department. He helped me find coupons for my medication, which I've never had any doctor do for me before. He's good at his job, and goes above and beyond to meet his patient's needs. I'd highly recommend him!
