I understand that choosing a psychiatrist is a very difficult decision, and usually when you need…read moreto do so, you are not in the best frame of mind to make what is a very important decision. That said, Dr. Patel has been a very good psychiatrist for me. He is compassionate, listens, and gives much needed advice. What people need to remember is that what a psychiatrist usually does is work with a patient and their medication(s) only. Psychiatrists normally don't provide therapy. I do not see Dr. Patel for therapy, simply for medicine management. Even so, he does take time to talk to me. He is a kind man. He has helped me tremendously when I needed help. If I need his assistance between appointments, I call and am able to speak with his assistant, who speaks with Dr. Patel. If necessary, an appointment is scheduled for me right away. I always feel cared for. Additionally, the staff at his office, Florida Behavioral Medicine, are all friendly and helpful, even when they are overworked with answering the phones, checking people in, checking people out and answering questions from people coming in and out. Florida Behavioral Medicine is a multi-doctor practice and sometimes the lobby may be a bit hectic. But I am always checked in before my appointment time, although at times patience is a virtue. Regardless of how busy the entire practice is, I usually see Dr. Patel on time and sometimes earlier than my scheduled time. I tend to show up for appointments early - that's just who I am. Dr. Patel is the most effective psychiatrist I have ever had, and just believe me, that is really saying a lot.

Do not use this DR. He prescribes addictive medicines then cannot get the prescriptions right and…read morethe prescriptions run out leaving a patient in withdrawal. They do not respond to urgent voicemails, ignore faxes and calls from the pharmacy, and this happens every cycle. He requires a visit every 60 days, but they schedule past the 60 days. I believe this practice of ignoring patients who are having to stop taking medicines that warnings say DO NOT suddenly stop taking medicine is malpractice and a call to our lawyer is next after writing reviews to let people know to never ever use this DR. He is bad news, period. Or his office staff, but the buck stops at the top, and hard to blame a horrible team if the DR does not care. The past few years with Dr. Ashtok Patel has been a repeating nightmare from day one.

There are few and far psychiatrists in this area and thus far I have been very pleased with Dr. Nihal Shah. It is an hour from my home but it is well worth the drive. Many times one has to wait as there are others who need help and you must adjust due to the shortage of the psychiatrists. With the advent of Covid I am totally impressed with the responsiveness of the office any time I have had the phone in. Thank you so very much.

FTC incorporates nutritional education, outings, yoga, & meditation into the treatment plan.

Now transitioned to IOP (intensive outpatient) in Tampa. I'm glad that I admitted myself because now I have the tools I need for my recovery. As a healthcare professional, I highly recommend this treatment facility for patients with alcohol addiction, drug addiction, mental health disorders, and eating disorders.

Terrible, terrible, terrible place. I cannot express how terrible this place is and the owners and…read morestaff literally say to clients "if you don't like the way we do things around here the door is open for you to leave." Zero compassion; this facility's operating system runs off of creating obedience and demoralization if you ever dare to advocate for yourself. The only thing this place teaches people is to deal with being homeless rather than deal with Rockland. To improve this facility they would need to do a complete overhaul on their daily operation and listening to patients first before jumping to conclusions. Too many complaints for a simple review. If you need treatment, there is a hospital right next to their housing units. I saved my own life by taking this route after two weeks of dealing with a very serious medication issue that landed me there in the first place. The medical director cleared me and they still chose to do their own thing against medical director advice. I almost had another manic episode before checking into the hospital to get my prescription. A non-narcotic blood pressure medication might I add.

If I could separate this review I would give it a 1 star for communication. Communication was awful. Doctors did not return calls to me while my mom (who has dementia) was in the hospital. Nurses did not know answers and would tell me I needed to speak with the doctor but I was never in the room when the doctor came. I had to make numerous phone calls to find out when she was being released because no one could or would call me. She was left in the bed all day one day because she thought she had to be and no one got her up because physical therapy had already signed off on her. The doctor that did call me said that she would be able to go home the next morning but it was two full days later that she finally was discharged. If your loved one is not able to take care of themselves, I would not recommend this hospital.
