Our phone visits made us feel like we had signed up for emotional abuse. He is condescending, rude, grits his teeth and corrects you like a child. Prescriptions were sent in wrong, and we were blamed. Even though we had called in to double check how to administer them. He had no record of having changed our children’s medications. Argued with us and then told us there’s no need to argue. If his aim was to make me feel Like he hates other humans, he totally succeeded. Please do not subject your children to this man’s wrath and distain. He never met our children in person but suggested that we not plan to go through with the adoption and also wanted to over medicate them.

I agree with so many here. So rude, uncaring, unhelpful. Tried to charge 350.00 for a 10 minute visit because it had been 16 months since the previous visit. Said we would be treated as new patients since it had been over a year since our last appointment!

We have been seeing Dr Fulsome for approx 8 years. He and his staff are all great! The changes in our son's behavior are amazing, and all the credit goes to Dr Fulsome. He listens to us, and changes medications or dosages accordingly. We were in a bad place 8 years ago, and now he is doing great! And so are we!!

I second all the comments; staff is rude; caught lying; he is a script writer; not objective; seems to push meds; does not listen; when questioned he gets defensive; extremely arrogant; frequently contradicts himself; stay away!

He was wonderful with my children. Medicine is not an exact science so sometimes you need to experiment with interventions/medications to find what works. Dr. Fulsom was always actively listening to my children and myself to find the interventions that worked for us. I would not take my children to any other psychiatrist in town. He is the best. He takes the time needed with each patient.Thank You Dr. Fulsom.

we have only gone to the doctor one time for the first appointment. He spent an hour with my daughter and I and listened and asked questions he needed to ask to get to the bottom of what her issues were. He went over his thought process with us why he ruled out certain things and how he narrowed down what might be the problem. He did not completely diagnosed but he did offer some help and prescribed medicine that I also think she needed to continue her ADHD medicine longer in the day. he was a little abrupt with her at the very beginning and some of that might have been due to the fact that we were late and it was the last appointment of the day.

The doctor is alway on time you don't have to wait for a long before you see the doctor. He answer all of my questions. The ladies are alway nice and if you have a problem they will ask the doctor and call you right to let you what to do. I had run out of medication on time and the drug store call and left message nd he return the call when he was out of the country on vacation. I highly recommand Dr. Donald Fulsom my children love going to see him because he does listin to each child. We love having him for a doctor.

I never feel like I have to hurry, I know some Dr.s want you in and out quickly, I have never felt that. All my questions are answered in detail, not short and quick.Other offices keep you waiting, I have not been kept waiting at this office. The staff is very friendly, I call often, and they always take time with me.

Receptionist is rude and dr fulsom spends no time with my child. An explains nothing he is a joke seems like he's only getting paid to write a rx instead of help my child how do u help a patient with only ten minutes. And then made excuse that he would not see my son anymore bc we live to far away. Two hours. And we were always on time. I do recommend this doctor at all he's all about making a buck
