Pediatric Psychiatrists - Boca Raton, FL

"I saw this "doctor" based on her office locality to my home, and her being a part of my health plan. The first visit she did not even introduce herself. This should have been the first red flag. I was taking a low dosage of a medication prior to moving here which has always been helpful. She told me there were better options available and persuaded me to try a different option. She gave me incorrect information and told me the medication did not need to be taken daily, when in fact according to the manufacturers website, it did. Red flag #2. She did not advise of much cheaper generic options. She changed dosages and brands every visit with what appeared to be no thought or consideration to the side affects that I had to incur. She appeared to just want to write a script, and get me in and out. I would compare her to a pill pusher with minute care for the patient. As far as her demeanor, she is cold, and unfriendly. At my last visit I was discussing how I felt the dosage was too strong, and she was flippant and held her hand up to start examining her manicure. She was not helpful, nor did I find her knowledgeable. I've left her as my practitioner, and found a new doctor with a friendly, approachable bedside manner and the proper knowledge how to administer correct dosages of medication for me. Complete waste of time and money with Uma Choday."
