I have been seeing this doctor for about 5 or so years now, the amount of problems I have with this doctor is ongoing.
I completely agree with most of these reviews, he constantly pushes ect on me even though I am clearly uncomfortable with the idea. Every visit I have to have my mom with me or he will walk all over me. He never knows what meds I am on, he only increases them each visit with no actual help. He even went as far as to give me medications that conflicted with eachother and the pharmacist had to call him to correct the mistake or I would have been sick.
This doctor told me I was too aggressive for Kirkwood, but I actually went and had a stay with absolutely no problems.
He never listens to any problems, and anytime I had ever tried to go to him with any of my own symptoms he would immediately shut me down and cut me off. As soon as he found out I smoke marijuana that's all he could talk about, he told me he would discontinue me as a patient if I didn't stop. Obviously I didn't because it's the one thing keeping me laughing and actually able to eat or sleep.
Recently I tried to book an appointment with the doctor and was told my file was closed? I asked the receptionist why and she read my entire file and not one note was left about why my file was closed. No missed appointments or any issues, the only thing I can think of is not going for blood work immediately BUT if you're dealing with the mentally ill, sometimes things don't pan out the way we wanted.
Him closing my file and cutting me off my meds(shoppers in the mall was no help) actually landed me in the hospital last night with 2 other clinics about the issue. Turns out, the medications I was on should have been tapered off and not stopped cold turkey.. it was giving me high blood pressure, my head was spinning, couldn't stand up or lay down, vomiting constantly, and so many other symptoms. Another fun fact, the walk in clinic dr said this has been handled ridiculously and doing this was so dangerous as another side affect to those meds are seizures!
No compassion, no bedside manner, not helpful, doesn't listen and loves to try and scare you for some reason.
Traumatic and all around a horrible experience, 10/10 do not recommend.
I'd have a broken leg, and still run from this doctor.

Awful. Just awful. Discharged me the day i was put inpatient because I refused injections or ECT and when asked about the fact that I knew I'd be a risk to myself if discharged he straight up told me that that will never go away as it is part of my illness. Stay away from this man.

This man needs self control to yell at a patient is never professional especially done with doors open and people listening.I have never seen such abhorrent behaviour.Not only should he have his license pulled he is downright destructive.He has put this client’s health back and is now struggling with suicidal ideation.

Appointments were short, few, and far-between. After 10 minutes, he would interrupt me and speak over me, by 15 minutes he was opening the door for me to leave. It feels like he gets paid per patient he sees, and considering he drives a convertible Aston Martin through town, I wouldn't be surprised.

Dr. Krishna is dismissive of your concerns, does not care to listen to what you say, and has already formed an opinion and treatment plan before you've even explained what's going on. This man is weaponized incompetence

I have been seeing Dr. krishna for many years. Last visit was very frustrating. He had a student with us and every time he is training someone he gets this god like complex. I don't know if he is trying to scare me or his student. His office time is 5 minutes just to renew perscriptions. I had a great Dr. Cata before. He was the best.

This doctor severely traumatized me. He has a cruelty about him that surprised me from a doctor. Made various threats against me during my care. Uses medicine as a weapon.

This doctor is never punctual, nor does he ever show up for a zoom call. Makes my son wait for his call. Has had his nurse call instead of himself. Changed his meds without telling him and did not wean him off a particular drug that my son had been taking for 20 years! Stopped it cold turkey. The pharmacist was against this too. Thank goodness family doctor intercepted and kept him on same drug and issued the renewals. Frightening to know this person is so uncaring!!

Please do NOT go here. He pushes ect therapy which has permanently altered my memory. I never had memory issues before. He was over a hour late for my appt so I left. He closed my file because I hadn’t seen him in a while but he’s IMPOSSIBLE to get a hold of. His receptions mail box is always full and when you do get a hold of them they’re rude and uncaring. His appts last 5 mins and he just throws you in whatever meds. He doesn’t even remember what you’re on. Even though it takes 2 min to check a file. I’ve seen psychs since I was a kids. And he is definitely the most uncaring but since the wait list is so long people put up with it. Trust me it’s not worth it. Go to a walk in clinic for your meds instead. Wait for someone worth it.

After months of telling him I did not feel well on this medication he abused his authority to get me to take holding things over my head like the ability to make my own choices in the type of medication he even went as far to threaten to keep me in the hospital for the rest everytime I go for medication I'm in the most fearful way I cry I tell them that this is a forum of rape ill even moo like a cow because of the medication he has me on I gained over a hundred pounds in one year I can't even walk because of osteoarthritis in my hips I believe their to be a language barrier I really want my old doctor back as he had me on the right medication I felt more human on the other doctors medication to boot the staff even though I told them I was gaining excessive weight which is one of the side affects from the medicine they would take my vitals or even weigh he is by far the worst doctor I've ever encountered and I worry about other people and how he treats other patients he acts like a child when you try to tell him you don't feel well on this medication by hanging up on you and threatening you to take medication he makes diagnosis from two minute phone calls he scares me and I don't think a man with a language barrier should be running a program where people need help now I need help to get rid of this doctor and fast I've been being threatened for the last two years and I am finally contesting him in court and I'm letting the board of trustees know how I've been treated I went in for delusions when using alcohol depression and ADHD he tried telling me because my aunt has depression it is the reason why pschoeffective mood disorder how does my aunts husband have anything to do with my DNA this is a joke when it come pshychatry and I hope that he gets what he deserves for the way he treats me
