Promotes Drug Abuse/Overprescribes
This doctor should have his medical license revoked immediately. Came in with debilitating migraines and was prescribed everything he could justify and convince me I needed. After a couple years of making my migraines WORSE, with rebound headaches, he never cautioned me about this side effect. I became so miserable in constant pain, I took 3 months worth of pain meds (he prescribed) in an attempt to take my life. In recovery, I learned what was happening to my brain, the absent seizures I was having from these meds, and hopelessness felt from chronic pain. Doctors are flagged in cases of overdoses and they are aware of their patients’ actions. Guess what? No call to speak to me. No concern for my well being. No help offered to taper off meds with supervision. Made an appointment months later to discuss and was given a pamphlet about opiate alternatives and shown the door. If you have a loved one that is seeing him, immediately discontinue and find an honest caring physician that isn’t just a pill mill like this one. He’s dangerous! Pain is real, but this doctor is not a healer, he’s a drug dealer.
