Karen L Cruey, MD

Had to write a review, went to see Dr Cruey yesterday, and had a great first appointment ( 2 Hours for New Patients ). She was very nice, patient and respectful, and great with medication management, I already have my next appointment set and glad to find her as my new Psychiatrist.

To begin, I have never written a negative review on Yelp before. I believe in uplifting businesses and supporting them. But people deserve to know what a scam artist this "doctor" is. My initial appointment was 1 hour "evaluation" and cost 500 dollars. Totally fine, because I was expecting her guidance to be helpful and I am truly willing to do whatever is needed. For an hour she told me working out and eating a healthier diet would cure my adhd. Sure, I listened and agreed. I live a very healthy life but am willing to do anything I can to improve. So then she told me the fact that I have attention issues might be because I drink too much water... Okay sure, I guess I can think about that moving forward. Again, this hour long evaluation was 500. Three months later and none of her guidance has worked and I am so frustrated. So I call and schedule a phone appointment to see if I can adjust anything or maybe get new meds. She tells me I have to pay her $200 dollars!!! I am livid. I spent 500 dollars on nothing. She is the worst doctor I have ever been to. I cant stress this enough, nothing she said was helpful. And now she wants more money?! No wonder she doesn't take insurance! All she needs to do is keep stringing patients along and charging 200 dollars for 15 minute phone calls and a 500 dollar evaluation.

Please trust me and DO NOT come here. I am filing a full report and investigation against her and hope she doesn't get away with her scam business anymore.
