Although it sounds like all of the Doctors in this place are pretty awful, Dr. Shah Nawaz of The Healthy Mind Psychiatric Services, St. Mary's Hospital & 'A Taste of Hyderabad,' Authentic Indian Cuisine Restaurant, is a horendous excuse for a Medical Professional. He & the entire staff could care less about their patients. They could care-less about their patients in general it seems, should anyone of them dare to carry so much as a $1 balance. This is when the Office Managers/Receptionists come alive & really shine, showing their true colors & true-calling as Debt Collectors, (which they'll probably get the chance to pursue full-time very soon.) Butthey just gotta get "Doctor" his $1! (They refer to Dr. Nawas simply as "Doctor," which is so strange & uncomfortable when the Receptionist says it, Ugh! It gives the vibe of an Off-the-Books Sex Dungeon/Lounge everytime she refers to him merely as "Doctor." Gross! And beware, ye who dare have even the smallest of ballances with them, forget whatever you're there for, mental illnes be damed, the almight buck rules supreme with this Doctor, @ this office, health & patientcare, well all "that" goes out the window entirely. They could give a shit. Instead debt consumes them & they pursue you to the ends of the earth, regardless of situation or circumstance, b/c all they are concerned with is "Doctor's" obvious financial troubles, requiring every $1 be accounted for & gathered. And even if on a strict Rx Protocol, don't even think about it, Doctor isn't prescribing you shit until your balance is paid in full! (this Doc don't care about any Hippocratic Oath or Malpractice violations. "ha, not this Doctor." Anytime he faces Malpractice charges/lawsuites, he just takes an extended holiday back to India, no worries.
But be careful with regard to paying off that balance, & definately don't get sick & wait too long, b/c he'll kick you loose with no medication, even positive with Covid-19 with a fever of 103, he doesn't care, he's more Sociopath than symothetic Doctor. He'll just discharge you as a patient, even after 11 years as having been a STELLAR Patient, 100% ALWAYS Paid-Up at time of service, the type of Patient/Client that follows the rules & regulations of the office & the Doctor, etc to the "t," & who absolutely isn't a "deadbeat," not at all, just a victim of unfortunate recent circumstance(s) that lead to a small balance on account, waiting to get over Covid to pay balance in person, in office. And despite all the history, a guarantee (plus guarantor) to settle the majority of the balance immediately, even before you'd really like to do in person at the next visit when finally physically healthy enough to drive to the Office & make a payment, b/c with this patient, $ is absolutely NOT an issue. Not that it matters, although I'm happy about it, this patient probably makes 10 times what the NOT GOOD Doctor does annually, this patient "me" has simply been sick with covid, etc. But, NOPE! Not good enough for this Doctor & his Office of Horrors, he discharged me, w/o providing any amount of medication or anything.
fCurrent SUBOXONE PATIENTS PLEASE SEAK ALTERNATIVE RESOURCES FOR YOUR SUBOXONE NEEDS ASAP! (I recommend a 100% online based Suboxone Treatment Health Network of Prescribing Physicians that work via an 100% Telehealth Network via a 4 year old Company out of California that I just Invested in highly today, called BICYCLE HEALTH via www.bicyclehealth.com (They accept insurance & offer appointments as quickly as same day & next day for new patients. A really great program, that also offers those who want additional resources & help, even answers to their questions & an actual dialogue with their prescribing Physicians, the opportunity to access so many different resources via their App & Website, via Chat direct with Doctors, videocalls with Dr's, & much more. All w/o ever having to pay for gas &/or drive to see another Dr. Nawaz-type nobody say nothing to you as he send your RX in. But if that's not for you, use the Suboxone.com website to find local area Prescribing Physician & pick a new one ASAP. Because, just a hunch, but I don't think Dr. Nawaz & his Marry Band of Low Class Script Peddlers will be around too much longer. Karma is such a bitch, and so ironic as it plays such a large part in Indian Religion & Culture, etc. Eeh! read more
