Diller Lawrence H, MD

At best this man is a quack. HE IS NOT A PSYCHIATRIST! Stay far far away. He has very little mental health training and has successfully marketed himself as a «behavioral pediatrician» which means that he uses obscure billing codes to provide pediatric «therapy.» He received training in mental health at an organization that offers «weekend workshops.» Most mental health specialists have thousands and thousands of hours of supervised therapy over the course of many many years. It is evident that his training in medicine and in mental health was many years ago. He should just stick to his creative writing as he has made a career out of opinion pieces and publicly tracking the trend of amphetamines to treat ADHD.
He succeeded in contributing to even more trauma, drama and mistrust in our blended family. Our teenager started seeing Dr. Diller himself and then with various family members on one side of a blended family. Sometimes he «treated» our teenager by only meeting with one parent. He then met with the other parent and proceeded to disparage Mom’s parenting style. He actively discussed the not present co-​parent and partner in a negative light in front of the children. This is not «therapy.» This is «gossip.» All the while billing insurance. Today, our teenager is failing school and suffering from depression and with few social skills. If you have a blended family, please stay away from this man. He does not know how to handle sensitive issues with adults-​God knows how well he could work with kids.

Dr. Diller has been such a great help with our family. We have been seeing him since 2010 and not only has he worked with both my daughters, ages now 19 and 16, but myself as well in dealing with the passing of my longtime partner and my own coping mechanisms. He has offered both his professional advice and also has provided insight as to whether there may be a need for outside referrals or even suggestions via books that are tailored to our particular situation. My daughters have learned amazing skills for both anxiety and attention deficit issues that I myself was having trouble pinpointing. They look forward to seeing him and I as well. He will continue to be an important professional in our lives. I and both my daughters, highly recommend him.

Not only was this the worst experience my family has had with a physician, but in my opinion, this is absolutely the worst example of a medical business we’ve had the misfortune to encounter.
My wife originally brought our teenage son to Dr. Diller to assist with some serious issues. It was ambivalence on first sight.
But the real horror was in dealing with the administrative staff. In my experience, an entire medical office should project warmth, empathy and respect. And in my encounters with them, they have demonstrated none of this.
I highly caution anyone considering this medical practice, based on our family’s experience.
