This man is in it for the money. He is there to write a script and if his job becomes anymore complicated than that he will direct you to someone else.
I was a patient of his for TEN years. Each visit he was arrogant, rude, cold, careless, I could go on. The only reason I stayed with him is because the medication was working. HOWEVER, once I had a relapse of my panic attacks and cried in his office, he refused to see me until I saw a therapist. No change in dosage. No compassion. Nothing but a kick out the door until we had 3 receipts from a therapist. How messed up is that? 10 years, my body is totally dependent on Zoloft at this point, and he was more than willing to just never see me again. He didn't give me any other psychiatrist I could see (which is against the law by the way) What's it to him, right? AWFUL doctor. COLD AND SARCASTIC to his emotionally fragile clients. Please do not see this man.

He by far is the most arrogant . My son had an issue and had to be placed in the hospital. When we meet with him a day after he got out he was so downing to him. Upset my husband and I so much. I don't think he knows what he is doing! A tad bit COLD is an understatement. I have never been more disappointed in someone in my life!

I knew I had bipolar disorder ever since i was 16 and i told him i thought i had it then. he refused to listen to me until one day i got psychotic and he finally diagnosed me with bipolar. This doctor does not know what he is doing. Do not waste your money or time on this doctor.

My son has been a patient of Dr. Sprinkle for 7 years, and we've never had a problem with this doctor. He is almost always on time, if not early. On the rare occasions he's been late, it's always been due to an emergency at the hospital. Dr. Sprinkle is extremely knowledgeable about pediatric mental health and the treatments available. He IS a tad bit "cold" in that he doesn't waste time with pleasantries, but he knows what he's doing. He will explain potential side effects of medications to you along with the pros and cons of several options. He will also help you understand your condition, as long as you ask. In summary, he's not a warm and fuzzy kind of guy, but he definitely knows what he's doing.
