The man would not even look at what I wrote and canceled the appointment 10 minutes after it was scheduled. He is a terrible human being, his assistant was even disgusted with him. It speaks for itself he is a lowlife.

My experience with Kevin was excellent. He listened well and went over every aspect of the meds that he was prescribing. I am seeing him again and would recommend him to any of my family or friends.

I have tried several other doctors who I felt did not really listen to my symptoms, but Kevin is great. He asks questions I felt needed to be asked, and is cautious where needed. So far, I've already felt improvement in the way that I feel. Definitely recommend.

It's very difficult to find a psychiatrist with the national shortage. It can be even worse if you have bad insurance, live outside the big cities and cannot pay out of pocket. Community Care clinics are overburdened and often give a very poor quality of care, bad appointments systems, and give you only ten minutes, simply issuing refills. But here I felt respected and listened to. Kevin is very empathetic and knowledgeable.
