I went to Dr Gallagher because I to was referred to my my school district for a fitness for duty…read moreevaluation and I was a bit nervous because of the things I read online. My lawyer was concerned that I was not going to pass and that her report would be the death nail in my career. With that said, I just decided to go in and be as truthful and transparent as possible because you're going to be vulnerable. As much as I felt my situation did warrant some concern, I strongly felt that the way my district handled the situation was questionable. I found her to be extremely helpful but downright charming at times. She ended up giving me more insight to my problems in an hour than I've received in the past four years from my own psychiatrist. She really was able to surgically zero in on my issues and I felt that she was fair. It's not her job to hold your hand but to deliver an opinion and although I'm still not sure how the report will play out I felt strongly that she was very fair and that's all you can ask for. If she wasn't so far away I'd transfer my services to her. I felt she was very helpful and I know that going through these evaluations isn't fun, you simply have to own your mistakes and be willing to accept the consequences.

I was researching psychiatric nurses here in Eugene, Oregon after seeing the clinic on Psychology…read moreToday. They advertised as being in Oregon but this is actually an Ohio based clinic. I was ok with that as we are doing virtual appointments but I thought it was a little odd that they are advertised as being in Oregon. I go through the online forms and fill most of them out. Then I see that if you take any controlled substances that you will be drug tested and you will pay for them! I am 48 years old and have been med compliant my whole life. I am prescribed one controlled substance. I've been on it for years and all it takes is one look at my prescription history to show that I've always been compliant on it with no issues. I don't appreciate being treated like a criminal because my brain doesn't work correctly. I don't do drugs, I don't drink. But when a clinic called Gentle Psych treats us like criminals it's just not cool. I just want to warn people, especially folks in Oregon.

Dr. Richards has been treating my 10 year old son for 15 months. My son was in a very dark place…read morewhen he first went to see Dr. Richards and was not at all happy about having to go see a psychiatrist as he didn't want to share his personal thoughts and issues. Dr. Richards is relatively soft spoken, has a non-threatening manner and asked appropriate questions which helped my son open up without feeling that his innermost feelings were being violated. The medication Dr. Richards originally prescribed and tapered up over a 6 week period has made a world of difference in restoring my son to his old self. Dr. Richards has since needed to up the dosage on two different occasions and it has again brought my son back to who he was before the depression set in. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Dr. Richards to other parents whose children are facing depression.

This is my experience trying to become a new patient…read more 4/28/17 - Called and asked about becoming a new patient with Dr. Peter Zafrirdes, and the guy who answered the phone was extremely rude in my conversation and corrected me in the pronunciation of Dr. Z's name. Sorry about that, my bad. Then he transferred me to the New Patient Line to leave a voicemail where I did as such. No returned call. 5/9/17 - left another VM on the new patient line. No returned call. 5/17/17 - Went to their website and sent an email stating that this was my third attempt at contacting them. 5/18/17 - Received a call from Darci that if I was "still interested" to contact them. Really....What do you think!!! I called Darci back immediately, upon which I was told that Dr. Z was not accepting new patients. I explained that my doctor had referred me to him. She explained of course, b/c Dr. Z is the best doctor and went on and on and him. I thought my doctor was the best myself and he was about to retire but I wasn't bragging. She recommended Dr. Julie Guthrie which I declined as she doesn't have good ratings. She explained that there were staffing issues....staff had left and the rest were having to pick up the slack. So I asked will Dr. Z be possibly take new patients later in the year? She said she didn't know. I asked if I could call back and check, yes. SOOO.... 10/23/17 - left VM on new patient line. Note the message states not to leave multiple messages as they are busy with patients or calling patients back. 10/30/17 - attempted to leave another VM but VM is FULL (see 10/23.....I believe if the office were actually calling patients back and deleting the VM messages, it wouldn't be full). Sent and email via their website contact page. 11/1/17 - @ 4:55pm....well, as of this writing, I have yet to receive a phone call. In my opinion, I truly believe the office staff are blocking and preventing patients from actually getting assistance from this facility. I believe the office staff are the gateway to the doctors and other medical professionals in this office and if they are picking and selecting who gets treated or not, that's sad and can become detrimental. This is very poor busy practices not returning phone calls back to potential clients. P.S. - Dr. Z may be a good doctor (I'm sure he is) but his office staff are not making him or the facility look very good. I wonder if Dr. Z, the other doctors, and other medical professionals really know what's going on in their office...that patients are trying to get in to seem them but the office staff are not allowing this to happen. Upon my research I found others have had issues with the office staff as well. Unless management take notice, this will continue to be a problem.

When I called back to ask the receptionist why it wasn't, she said that insurance companies "never cover those", after several attempts to get a hold of someone in charge, I was told that they would remove the charge, but they never did. I refuse to pay it out of principal, and now I am getting rude calls from an aggressive debt collector who just told me to "be responsible; pay your bills", and hung up on me.
