The next time I was told to allow 72 hours. The third time I was told to allow a week. This is so frustrating especially since these meds need to be taken daily. The last experience took so long I had to ask my PA to fill one of my prescriptions to last me a few days. I spoke to my doctor about the whole situation and told her the clinic should be helping me not causing me undue stress and anxiety. The system is broken. The office staff told me they would send a message to my doctor. The third time I called the office I was told the first two messages that were supposed to be delivered did not get sent. I've had multiple experiences like this but this was by far the worst. They have a bad turnover rate in staffing the office. that speaks volumes. This is food for thought. I found a new doctor.

I do not feel comfortable disclosing my diagnosis's online, but I will say that Dr. Shaw didn't stuff me full of medications like some psychiatrist's do, he actually promoted Therapy first (Psychologist) and group Therapy helped a lot, but along the way I did need medications that Dr. Shaw prescribed and monitored. Dr. Shaw is a strong mental health professional who combines great cognitive abilities with expertise, empathy, and communication skills to deliver effective care.

I am a female patient with an extensive history of abuse, and I only recently became fully aware of…read morethe extent of the trauma I endured due to dissociation. I initially sought treatment from Dr. David Shaw in my 20's for what I believed to be depression. After 10 years of prescribing me drugs of little help (without ever asking if I had a history of trauma), Dr. Shaw began injecting me with Ketamine (a dissociative anesthetic) starting with 80mg and then quickly moving to 120mg per injection of Ketamine weekly. I weigh 120 lbs and every injection caused complete loss of consciousness and amnesia for the duration of the session afterwards. After asking him to reduce the dosage, he eventually injected me with 100mg of Ketamine on one routine visit and then proceeded to allow me to leave his office (unconscious) 18 minutes after injecting me. I have ZERO recollection of this. I "came to" IN JAIL, after the drug he injected had worn off, and after being charged with a DUI - all due to him injecting me with Ketamine and neglecting to supervise my recovery. He does not supervise patients that are under the effects of this dissociative drug and has no one in the office to do so. This is extremely dangerous, and proved to be so in my case. After this incident, I researched Ketamine administration and most clinical standards dictate that a patient is not allowed to drive for the entire DAY of Ketamine administration. The patient should be monitored for the duration of the drug administration and both be driven to and back home by a responsible adult. Dr. Shaw allowed patients themselves to drive both to and home from his office at their SEVERELY IMPAIRED and UNCONSCIOUS discretion after injecting them with Ketamine, dismissing them, and moving on to the next patient. I am not sure how I made it home all of the other times he dismissed me and let me wait alone while I decided (again, impaired) when I could drive the 45 minutes home. I have dramatically regressed since this incident - my PTSD and anxiety are unmanageable. The trauma of being arrested and put through the court system for over two years while I waited for the blood test to come back, the stigma and shame caused by his unsupervised Ketamine administration and resulting arrest, night in jail, and prolonged court procedures have been utterly debilitating, detrimental and have severely harmed my quality of life. The harm caused by Dr. Shaw's negligence still has a devastating impact. Prior to this event, I was transitioning careers, had just completed a rigorous continued education course and earned a certification, was interviewing, and fully capable of functioning at a high level. Since that day, I have been unable to function normally and have undergone intensive therapy to address the trauma caused by this incident. I am now thankfully in treatment with two very compassionate and safe female therapists and beginning to work on my ability to trust healthcare providers. Another incident of note: I also "came to" during one of his ketamine injection sessions (prior to the incident I described above - I have not seen him since) on his couch with a large bleeding gash on my forehead, and upon touching my head and seeing blood, I asked Dr. Shaw what happened. He then proceeded to tell me I "fell over" during the session and "hit my head on his rock crystal," and grabbed a paper towel and sprayed it with an alcohol based antiseptic and started blotting at my head without my consent. Looking back, this was a huge red flag. I had a large laceration and egg sized bump on my head and have no recollection of how it got there, other than him telling me I fell on his rock crystal. And then sprayed my head (yes, he also sprayed my head) with antiseptic, blotted it with a paper towel, and let me go. My hair was covered with blood near the gash and I had a very painful shower and a painful two weeks healing after that. AVOID THIS DOCTOR. I do not want any other vulnerable person to be harmed by his negligence.

I've always had outstanding experiences with the staff at PSP, and it's one of the things I miss most about living in Seattle. I went through separate stretches of time seeing Brien and then later Evonne. They were both periods of my life where having a sounding board for my thoughts, struggles, etc. helped me through difficult times. I've seen other therapists that kinda sucked and felt like money down the drain, but Brien and Evonne were both articulate in their feedback and guidance. Felt more like a conversation with a friend who was there to help (and who I knew I could trust 100%).
