UC Davis Medical Group-Psychiatry And Behavioral Sciences

Really, really poor…
The desk women are nice, that’s about it. My psychiatrist, for one, prescribed medications at dosages that gave me serotonin syndrome, and didn’t return my calls for 4−5+ days, and in general would even go a week without calling me back, 2 – 3 times towards the end foregoing that all together.
I kind of felt… Guilty for my conditions and resistance to treatment because she was getting frustrated with my lack of a response to the medications she prescribed, and I apologized once, she told me in a forced way not to be sorry, but clearly felt otherwise… Like «why would we try this medication when every single time you say you feel stuck,» like, am I supposed to fake progress and results? And «We need to differentiate between life circumstances and medication side-​effects,» even when I went into detail about why I knew it wasn’t just life. She never listened, talked over me and treated my mental illness as if it were a gastrointestinal ailment, or some quick fix, or even something I had control over.
I can give a name if asked, but she’s a good arguer, and as a patient I felt frequently invalidated.
The department itself never actually charged me a bill until just yesterday when I got a notice from their debt collectors saying I owe a huge sum (which I asked the desk person about beforehand and she told me my copay was my only financial responsibility.) Now I’ve waited nearly and hour and have yet to talk to someone.
UC DAVIS SUCKS, DON’T GO HERE FOR HELP OR TREATMENT, IT’S A BUNCH OF STUDENTS JERKING OFF, probably cuz their worried about their own bills, thanks to UC Davis charging so much for tuition. UCD sucks essentially.
