I visited Dr. Bush , in means of obtaing patient-centered outcomes, which would have involved behavioral- cognitive treatment, instead of pharacological tjerpies, which was conversed on the phone by him and I prior to my initoal visit. Informatively, at yhe inotial visit Dr. Busch was knowledgeable of the current medications that I was taking, when he tried effortfully, to incourage me to take a mood stabilizer consequential of me becomming very frustrated due to yhe fact that prior to our visit pharacological treatments, whoch have been proven by emperically-based evidence decrease the mortality rates of the individuals taking them by decades or more dependent on how much they consume. Thus, placing my trust and faith on Dr. Busch. I agreed to take a mood stabilizer acknowledged as Saphris, which without my knowledge was new and unlnown to the feild of psychiatry. In othet words it was experimental. Additionally, Dr. Busch having prior knowledge of the current medications that I was taking, especially Lisinopril-HCTZ, that I was taking to control my high blood pressure, could have dire or even lethal drug interaction with the Saphris. Subsequent to returing home from my visit with Dr. Busch, I took the first dose of Saphris bilingual as instructed. Unfortunately, approximately twenty minutes later is was unable to swallow, my entire face felt like ot was on fire, everthing that I placed into my mouth, including ice and sugar (sweets) produced the effect of a habanaro peeper, and phrephrial neuraphty has damaged both of my legs permanently. Dr. Busch, to this very day , has failed to take responsibility for his mal-practice. Importantly, when I had Dr. Busch investigated by the Texas Medical State Board, he jas had his medical license revoked on more than one occasion for his pesonal employment of cocaine, and for fraudulently writing perscriptions for narcotics for his own personal use. Certainly, every human being makes mistakes but when they are made repeatedly, and cause extreme harm to others, especially the children that are under his care is unacceptable and intollerabe, especially when Dr. Busch shows no regatds nor remorse to his vivtims. All physicians responsibilities is to firstly, do no inflict any harm.

Conclusively, my mther is an RN and has worked with Dr. Busch for several years, and when I indormed her that Dr. Busch was the physician responsible for this travesty, she stated " If I would have acknowledged that you were going to see Dr. Busch, I would have done everything within my power to prevent you from doing so.

Soncerely, I have chosen not to sue Dr. Gerald Busch because the Holy Bible is the only absolute truth I will ever axknowledge. However, keep yourselves and especially your children as far away from him a possible. Hence, do your research with the Texas. or any other Medical Board, in means of preventing the said travestis,and keeping you, your children, you family members, and loved ones out of harms way

A TRUE DR FEELGOOD. LEGAL DRUG DEALER ... CHECK THE TEXAS MEDICAL BOARD .. my experience was horrible. He refused to drop my doses as I detoxed myself and left me with hundreds of pills I did not need ... Switching me from Suboxone to subutex when I had gotten close to getting off of Suboxone to keep me hooked. Saw me for 5 min and billed 30 minute visits. I am sure he is committing Medicare and Medicaid fraud with that billing system of seeing a patient for 5 billing for 30. DO NOT TRUST THIS DOCTOR ... HORRIBLE !

Frightening and wasted time. Saw this M.D. for ten years. All good, sane, and trustworthy staff eventually left. This doctor is not for high functioning dual diagnosis patients. A medicare/medicaid revolving door playing on the idea of detox while not truly providing proper treatment or care. Benzos to help in recovery? That's just trading one addiction (opiates, pain killers, heroin) for a more "socially acceptable" alternative. Triple books appointment times, at least.
If your insurance leaves you litte/no choice of providers and you truly need psychotropic medications for schizophrenia, bipolar, major depression.... then he is minimally acceptable. THERE ARE MUCH BETTER PROVIDERS IN HOUSTON

This so called Dr. Needs his license revoked AGAIN And FOR GOOD!!! ! PLEASE PLEASE CHECK WITH THE TEXAS MEDICAL BOARD AND READ HIS DOCUMENTS...HE WAS CAUGHT PRESCRIBING HIMSELF MEDS, HAD TO ATTEND AA, NA and Cocaine A. In 1986-1988. Thevway I was treated and had pills pushed on me for years clearly shows this Dr. is still on his own and whatever drugs he wishes. PLEASE DO NOT GO TO THIS GLORIFIED UNSOBER DRUG DEALER!!!!!
