Positive and Negative Experiences
The reviews provide a mixed bag of experiences with the healthcare professionals at the clinic. Some patients have had excellent experiences, while others have had disappointing and frustrating interactions.
Years of Excellent Care but Decline in Empathy
One patient, R. R., had been seeing Dr. Bernat for nearly a decade but felt that her empathy and understanding had declined, causing their mental health to worsen. Although this patient had initially praised Dr. Bernat's skills, they ultimately stopped seeing her due to the lack of care and understanding.
Exceptional Care and Professionalism
Other patients, including Dor Nissan, Ann Marie Slavin, Helen Middleton, Sam Hatter, O. Dewis, and Susan Harris, had overwhelmingly positive experiences with the healthcare professionals. They praised the clinicians for being kind, caring, professional, and empathetic. These patients reported receiving excellent care, including accurate diagnoses and effective treatments.
Disappointing and Unhelpful Service
However, Stacey B. had a poor experience at the clinic. They reported feeling judged and misunderstood by the psychiatrist, who seemed more focused on medication than understanding the patient's needs. This patient felt that the service was "money-orientated and very closed-minded" and ultimately walked away feeling worse about themselves.
