The doctor never showed up to my appointment. That’s very unprofessional.
Video visit
Most unprofessional psychiatrist I've ever encountered (and I've had several). Kept switching appointment times/places from her two offices. One time when she spoke I told her I'd prefer Evanston, and we changed the appointment, but then the second time we spoke she told me she only had a computer in one location, so I'd have to come to her downtown location. But she never gave me a new appointment time or called me back. It's uncomfortable that she has my information without me having seen her, and I am now without medication because of all of the reschedules. Again, I've had several psychiatrists and she is completely unprofessional.
