Singh Kuldip K MD

Please, DO NOT see this woman if you are mentally ill. She completely lacks patience and understanding for your situation. This was the worst experience I have had with any doctor, really with any individual I have confronted as a mentally ill person thus far. I am typically skeptical of people who are overly critical of psychiatric medical professionals, I’m of the opinion that it is an undervalued and incredibly important profession. I have severe ADHD and bipolar disorder which makes school and holding down a job almost impossible without medications. HOWEVER, I am not «a mess» I am not a «problem member of society». I am not the complete animal that Singh had the audacity to treat me like today. Within 15 minutes of meeting me, based on my «punk» appearance and the fact that I had a Bipolar type 1 diagnosis, she striped me of all my prescriptions, and put me on a strong antipsychotic medication (which all other previous doctors had advised against due to my having a more mild case of Bipolar type 1 and due to the potentially problematic long-​term effects), and told me that my parents and my family must hate me. I was sobbing and shaking. I can not describe the fear this women put me in. I know that this all sounds awfully hyperbolic, but of all the times I have had somewhat cold or pretentious doctors, I have always been able to tell myself that they know what they’re doing and that they are the professionals, not me. With Singh, this was not the case. She did not take time to learn about my specific experience with the illness. She was disorganized. And she did not meet the bare minimum in compassion that anyone needs in order to interact with any person, much less people suffering from crippling disabilities and traumatic illnesses. When I left through the waiting room, all patients had smug, terrified looks on their faces. I might as well have been exiting through a dungeon. That is not how the patients of a successful mental health practitioner should look. Please don’t make the mistake of going to this doctor, even if you’re desperate.
