    Rosa is a very capable, experienced therapist. A very caring person. She evaluates your state of mind and prescribes meds as warranted.

    WARNING: WRITTEN WITH GREAT CONCERN. PLEASE READ WITH DILIGENCE AND PROCEED IN YOUR BEST INTEREST…read more After my psychiatrist from another office retired and my case was closed at that office, I was left to fight PTSD and severe anxiety without my medication or therapist. After two months of truly trying to adjust, but severely struggling being off prescribed and managed medication (Sertraline for transparency purposes), I decided to reach out for help since none of my calls to my former Drs Office had bothered to return any of my calls over the past two weeks [A long time and a lot of fight for someone in my predicament]. Unfortunately, I feel like my knuckles were quick-lashed when I reached out to Dr. Kantor's office today, Tuesday, October 30th, 2018 around 2:50pm. The receptionist who answered sounded like she was not doing well herself, to be honest. (I will keep her in my non-imprecatory prayers. Humour.) Good thing care is on the way. While our less than empathetic receptionist was quick to tell me that "We aren't scheduling new patients until 3-4 weeks out." Of which I quickly assured her was fine. Receptionist: Well, we don't accept insurance. Only cash or check. Me: Alright, that's fine. (I tend to research major services before I make appointments but...) R: Well, the initial visit is $325. Each follow up is $225. M: Alright. R: So what's bringing you in? I proceeded to explain the situation I referred to in the 1st paragraph. PTSD/medication management. R: Oh, WELL, we don't prescribe any medication during the initial visit. M: Yes, that's fine. ( No one ethical does...Im not looking for a fix. But at this point I feel more like I'm being spoken to like some sort of pill popper rather than the human being I am asking for help. Literally, an appointment.) R: Well, we need your medical records faxed over from your previous provider. M: (feeling pretty crest fallen) As a patient, I haven't even been able to get thru to to them for the past two maybe three weeks to get an appointment. What if I can't get a hold of them to fax them over? [And really, this should not be a burden of a patient in the position of ANYONE calling to make a mental health appointment. She could have asked me for the number and gotten thru as a provider. Way to task out your job, Lady.] Then miss receptionist proceeded to argue with me. How is this acceptable??? R: Um, no. You can get thru. They're a Dr office. Someone has to answer the phone. M: Oh no, they do. Then they put me on hold and transfer me to another person who doesn't answer the phone... R: No. Just tell them they need to fax the records over. M: Um...ok... Then without hesitation or even giving me the fax number, said receptionist hung up. I had no appointment, no fax number, and absolutely no desire to deal with a person/dr/Dr office to experience literal rejection for mental health care ever again. This is why people stop trying. This is why people give up. I won't. And I won't accept the thought of millions of other people in my situation being treated this way with much, much less fortunate outcomes without pointing it out. If this is how you're helping people, please, for the love of life, STOP. This helps NO ONE.

    This is the worst psychiatric clinic I have ever gone to. Rose Thorne, psychologist should not even…read morehave a license to practice. She is lacks judgement and empathy. Run, do not walk away from this practice. I was very depressed when I went to this practice and they would not prescribe antidepressants even though I had a long history of depression documented back to childhood. I was new to Ft Myers and thought I would be treated with dignity and respect. Fortunately, my primary care doctor saw how obviously depressed I was and prescribed the proper medication.

    I did not receive treatment from this practice, but I unfortunately feel the need to warn potential…read morepatients away. My experience was first that they don't have their act together administratively: did not return my first message left by phone (and they almost never pick up the phone anyway), have never responded to email, and when I finally did get scheduled for an initial appointment, they had me with the wrong doctor (I was seeking ketamine treatment; they put me under medication management), which resulted in a 2 week delay in getting in. The initial consultation itself, though, is why I have to recommend against this practice and is why I didn't pursue treatment through them myself. The meeting started out with Dr. Pollack grilling me about drug use as if I was just looking for an easy/legal high (quite frankly, the price of ketamine therapy being what it is, that's just ludicrous). He then went on to spout outdated and verifiably false information about marijuana and other drugs (e.g. he seems to be blissfully unaware of the latest psychiatric research into psychedelics and insinuated that cannabis could cause cancer), and then pushed a $200 brain-wave scanning test on me to ostensibly determine whether ketamine or TMS therapy would be better for me. I never received the results of this test. My biggest takeaway beyond these details was that I felt a distinct lack of empathy - or even sympathy - from Dr. Pollack, and for a treatment like ketamine where set and setting are incredibly important, I couldn't see him being able to adequately provide treatment. I did find treatment out of town with a much more competent and compassionate doctor, and that experience made me even more glad for my decision not to be treated at PASWFL.

    If I could rate this office a zero I would. I would not recommend it to anyone. I have been a…read morepatient here for about 3 months. During these 3 months I have called at LEAST 20 times. They NEVER answer the phone. I have watched the front desk girl Katie eat scrambled eggs at the front desk and watch Friends on her phone while ignoring the ringing office phone. I mentioned the issue to the NP and she gave me contact information for her personal phone, email, and the direct line to the front desk etc. Still, no one answered. This office is supposed to be for people who have mental health issues. HOW can you provide care for these people without ANSWERING THE PHONE?? What a shame! There is always an excuse for not answering the phone, or responding. I have never been seen any time near my scheduled time. It has been at least 40 minutes to 1 hour after my scheduled time. Every single appointment. EXTREMELY disappointed and will be taking my care elsewhere.
