It took a while to find what would work best for me, but Dr Hildago listened to me, monitored my poor health closely, and has been caring for me ever since.

She truly wants the best for her patients and is open to what they have to say.

Start of the visit went well enough she let me know right away that she can handle my meds for me. She was willing to give me a bridge Rx for my pain meds while I found a pain specialist. Well, by the end of the visit she said she wouldn't give me the bridge script because "I don't prescribe narcotics for any reason." WTF, she literally told me that she would help until I found a pain specialist. I have been going to a pain doctor for three years. They can see from my records is that I have been on the same dose this whole time. I haven't been fishing for more. All of my UIs have come back clean. Honestly I am a model patient. Then, they never sent the referral to the pain doctor she personally recommended me to!!! Maybe she is OK if you sprain your ankle but if you have serious health issues and chronic pain like me find someone else. She Will trivialize your pain while patronizing you the whole time. Worst doctor I have had to deal with in a long time. Stay away.

Update Time :)…read more Kristin Cote LMFT (Here is the link that is active at the time of this journal entry: https://www.yelp.com/biz/cote-kristin-b-mfcc-manteca / This is her Yelp Business Listing where her contact information resides) is still working during this COVID-19 etc. health breakout. 2 means: IN-Person (Hours Limited) & by telephone. To my knowledge, her office is still "Open for Business" in the location/address located in Manteca, California & listed here on this Yelp Business listing. I select the telephone as it's a notable distance from my residence when traveling. I'm still working on myself to be the best thing I can be and with Kristin's tutelage & education, it's always working & a work-in-progress; I'm totally good with that & with the strides I continue to make in my thinking and feeling which is a huge aspect to any living creature. Kristin has ALWAYS been there for me during CRITICAL EMOTIONAL/PHYSIOLOGICALLY uncomfortable times. These acts of morality & kindness have saved my existence. On a medication side-note some changes to my medications from my Psychiatrist also interest Kristin as she and my Psychiatrist of 5+ years & counting, Dr. Zainab Al-Dhaher (REMOTE ZOOM appointments available currently) work together professionally to keep me in tip-top client condition. Kristin has told me, more than once, to refresh my memory, that certain parts of the "Diagnosed Psychiatric Psychosis", wasn't convinced and/or certain that is what I actually had. At one point, my diagnosis from Dr. Al-Dhaher included the words "IN REMISSION" next to the BiPolar Type 1, and I became afraid and exhilarated at the same time because I was unaware that "remission" was possible for the BiPolar Type 1 diagnosis. Either way, Kristin has a holistic approach to my treatment and is VERY HANDS ON as is Al-Dhaher (called fondly "Dr.A" by Kristin). I don't know what I'd do without both of them. I was considering a move to Vermont; Wallingford, Vermont U.S.A. but I don't believe I'll be able to locate the correct Psychotherapist that Kristin is all about and the same goes for my lifesaver Al-Dhaher. (She, Dr. Al-Dhaher is a WIZARD! with psychotropic meds & some supplements OTC and prescribed a vitamin; Vitamin B6 100Mg tabs daily with a daily dose of 800 currently, does a miraculous job at managing the Tardive Dyskinesia Symptoms!) (uncontrollable bodily movements including Nystagamus, and herky-jerky bodily movements) (unsure of spelling and not near a dictionary; sincere apologies). Kristin has always been 100% Supportive with me and my mental-health, including supporting my CHOICE to take daily prescribed (Rx.) therapeutics by my amazingly competent psychiatrist Dr. Zainab Al-Dhaher @Community Psychiatry. (She has more than 1 office location.) Lithium Carbonate ER (Extended Release) has been a GOD-SEND to my life and my relationships & LEXAPRO (used in the ethical treatment of Depression & ANXIETY) have saved my life without weight-gain & given me INSIGHT & CLARITY into my future where I once was hopeless. There's a ton more to describe regarding this psychotherapic/psychiatric journey but space is limited. I stand-behind both of my psychiatric treatment team members and their ACCURACY in helping me lead an awesome yet humorous life. I've learned that A GOOD SENSE OF HUMOR is a must when treating BiPolar Type 1. It took me a few years to truly digest & absorb that lived experience but now that I have, I see clearly, the path ahead-of-me. My NAMI friend Marnye (no confidential breech) is a believer in the humor advice as well and you know what? Lastly, My Mother is a self-less being in so many healthful ways. So much so that I asked her way back in the beginning of our in-person appointments with Dr. Al-Daher to please accompany me to each and every appointment as often as possible. I am not secretive about any of my medical diagnoses and speak freely in front of my Mother, Kristin & Dr. Al-Dhaher, MD. It's been one heck of an eventfully productive healthful ride... I've pasted the link for Dr. Al-Dhaher, MD Psychiatrist below. The link works @ the time of this journaling. She was in the Manteca, CA office, then the Oakland, CA office & now she is settled in the Walnut Creek, CA office. https://www.mindpath.com/staff/zainab-al-dhaher-md/ ~ Jana Leigh Thomas
