| - I wish I could give them no stars because this place is literally the worst place you could go to. I first started going last year off a recommendation. I was spiraling out of control and really needed help, I was told the doctor that I was depressed. And since I filled out the sheet when you first go, about past medicines you've taken she just put me on those that I listed. Fast forward a few months later, I was feeling great and didn't want to go anymore. But the doctor insisted and kept trying to put me on more sleeping pills and Lamictal (which I had a major allergic reaction to on my face) because I kept having outburst of anger and I couldn't control myself, so I just stopped all my visits because who wants to be sleep all the time, that's not even living. After I stopped going I felt good for a while and then I crashed and ended up in a hospital in May. I signed up with my amazing therapist and found out that not only did I suffer from PTSD but also Bipolar as well. You're not supposed to just flat out give someone with Bipolar anti depressants because it causes Mania. Which is a euphoric feeling like you could take on the world if you wanted which makes sense as to why I just abruptly stopped going and said i would fix it myself. I was skeptical about going back but again another recommendation told me another dr ( who I now know is a nurse practitioner) I went to see her and was telling her I was having a hard time I was going through Hypo Mania which is the very depressive side of Bipolar. So I just wanted to give her the run down about my last visit. so we wouldn't make the same mistakes this time I just wanted to be in the right medicines s I could begin my journey of feeling better. I told her my last dr didn't listen too me .. she stopped me dead in my tracks flipped through my file In front of my face and told me actually someone was listening to you because she was prescribing you mood stabilizers. Um Yeah because I requested it idiot, the idea didn't just fall into her lap. And then she proceeds to tell me she feels like I'm forced to be here, and that I was probably just going to flush the pills down the drain or better yet not take them. Wow so this is how they treat mental patients who are going through Hypo Mania. Than she turns and tells me she's going to put me in 15mg of topomax ummm before I stopped coming I was on 200mg what was 15mg going to do for me my last doctor even started me off on 50mg. So I told her no thank you so than she starts speaking really face and ask me for my pharmacy and that was it. I didn't know what medicine I was going to take, what dosage I was prescribed or anything until I got to my pharmacy. And because it was such a low dosage I nearly had to go to the hospital twice because I was having such a hard time. Monday comes my mom calls the general manager because I'm having Bipolar episodes and couldn't do it if I tried. They told me to come and two days and since it was Dr Rosenman office he would see me. Again I was very hesitant since both experiences were bad but I went because she said they were going to make it right, and put me on the right medicine. Ok fine. When I got there I asked what was the point of today's visit I was told so I could tell the dr what happened and be prescribed medicine. I wait almost 35 minutes to be seen and when he comes in he's rushing me and not even listening. I was trying to explain to him like his general manager said I should and he turned to me and said "ENOUGH ABOUT THAT" WOW!! I was flabbergasted and told him I won't be coming back anymore. He told me he would refer me, but anyone who's friends with the likes of him couldn't treat me if I was on my deathbed. I went to the front and requested my files and told them as well I would never come back here. And all I got was " No.. He usually not like that." Well he was yesterday. I guess you're constantly learning something new. So if you have Mental disorders that need serious help, skip out on this place and save yourself like I wish I could've from spiraling further out of control. Will be doing everything in my power to make sure this place is reported.
