Diamond Steven B

If I could leave no stars I would. I went to Dr. diamond when I was 20 years old. I would see him once a month and describe my symptoms to him. They consisted of depression, impulsive spending, elevated moods then low moods.
He prescribed me an anti depressant called Luvox which is used to treat depression.
I attended monthly appointments with him in which my mother and I would discuss my lack of improvement. He would lecture me to get it together. He would ask me why I was behaving erratically? What was wrong with me? What will it take for me to change?
I could never give an honest answer bc I did not know why. I would try to improve but I couldn’t.
This went on for a year until I decided to see another dr.
Within the first day of meeting my new doctor and telling him my symptoms he properly diagnosed me within 15 minutes! I was bipolar. I also found out to my horror the medicine Luvox makes people who are bipolar more manic, which leads to depressions. It was making my symptoms worse.
I remember my new Dr. Unable to comprehend how Dr. Diamond was not able to diagnose me with such classic symptoms.
He wasted my time, put my health in danger. The worse part about this experience is he made me feel like there was something wrong with me.
Don’t waste your time with this «Dr».Don’t walk run!
