I was not even offered a chair. It was a couple of years ago. All he wants to do is put you in the hospital and then after that you call him and he charges you for the calls. A friend of mine went to him and he put her in the psych ward in Asheville hospital system for months. When she got out, he never saw her but he always returned her calls. When I went to him, he showed me the cost of those calls. I would not recommend them to a dog. All he wants to do is put you in the hospital for big bucks. When I saw him, everyone was just passing through to get prescriptions all at once. My psychiatrist actually sees people. We don't all show up at 9 in the morning and then he just lets people call him and puts them in the hospital. I am so grateful I never went to this place at all. He just wants to get your insurance money. Then when you call him, the insurance wont pay that so you pay that. My doctor referred me to him because he used to have a specialty. Now he does not have it. He told me he would not see me. I was so glad when I saw how he ran his office like a cattle call. There must have been 30 people going through there at once early in the morning. My psychiatrist talks to us individually. My doctor and him passed nasty letters back and forth. I bet they still play golf together. Then a year later this psychiatrist sent me a letter asking if I didn't want something like shock treatment. NO THANK YOU! You are not going to rip me off. I saw his price list and I was shocked. No other doctor of any kind charges like that for prescriptions or phone calls. He is ripping people off
