Ive had a great experience since I started treatment here about 3 years ago. My psychiatrist Dr Anderson has been phenomenal. I previously had someone who was more like a post doc and she was pretty good too but Anderson really kills it.

This facility is a waste of time and money. Their availability is low--expect to wait months for treatment--and their services arent worth it. I attended multiple appointment over six months and underwent multiple tests all for the benefit of a student. The doctor popped in few times at the end of my appointments as a mere formality and added nothing. The final straw for me was a miscommunication and rude secretary. I attended an appointment phone call to reup my medicine that they told me I needed to take regularly. Later I called in after not receiving my renewal. The rude secretary demanded I attend a second appointment before they would reup. This isnt what the student told me would happen. The secretary didnt care. After 6 months of waiting and attending appointments I had nothing to show for it. Do not waste your time or money here.

I wanted to give this place the benefit of the doubt. But I should have reads the reviews first. First of all I was told back in June I had to wait until November to get in but would have a diagnosis by the end of the year. I just went to my appointment this week and didnt even see the actual doctor until the last 3 minutes of my 2 hour long appointment that was completed bu a student. She literally came in and said next is your detailed assessment in about a month and left the room. I get a call back saying they cant see me until March of next year That was a total waste of money for me. Not to mention the receptionist were soo rude UK Healthcare board NEEDS to look into this office and hold leadership accountable. Next is Lex 18 andor other media outlets for me. This is absurd and NOT what UK Healthcare represents. They need to terminate Sandra Batsel-Thomas and whoever else is running that place because this is a disgusting way to run healthcare-leaving patients feeling hopeless and extremely uncomfortable.

I came to this facility in desperate need of treatment for my out of control anxiety after my previous doctor of 5 years had moved out of state. I was placed with Kyle Latimer APRN whom I found reasonably jovial and okay to talk with initially.Although I had already been given a diagnosis for which ive been treated for the last 20 years He explained that he wanted to do his own assessment. He came up with two different diagnoses one of which I disagreed with.Instead of focusing on my anxiety all this guy really wanted to do was chase the depression angle. He put me on an antidepressant that id already taken with no success in the past. I eventually told him that he was barking up the wrong tree and I had no interest in the depression diagnosis because given the life that I lead I felt it was not out of proportion anymore so than what the average person deals with.He was visibly deflated by this and afterwords didnt seem the same to me in demeanor. He said if one antidepressant didnt work then we would try another and another. He also explained from the outset that rather than treat me he intended to CURE me. I finally gave him a thorough explanation of how I felt about my treatment and why this wasnt going anywhere.I explained that I did not understand why I was being made to suffer through horrid panic attacks and the total inability to leave my house while being fed tons of antidepressants in hopes that they might someday make a difference with my crippling anxiety. This is patently absurd and I told him so He sent me a curt response with a vague excuse for why he would not give me the type of medication that my previous doctor had.This place is a complete waste of time. If you need anything stronger than an antidepressant which is all they wish to throw at you then youll be denied and probably labeled as Drug-Seeking also. Good Luck

Ive always received great care and have been a patient about a year now. I searched for many years for the right mental healthcare provider and I feel like I finally found them. Whitney has been amazing and caring and supportive all the way. Im thankful to have found this practice.

This joke of a place is unbelievable They prescribe people in recovery any and all narcotics they ask for with utmost negligence. Im in utter shock and disgust at this blatant disregard for human lives shown so freely by the staff. Shame on all of you for condoning and enabling addiction. You along with the majority of suboxone clinics in this town should be shut down. All you care about is the almighty dollar

Denisha who works the front desk is highly unprofessional and doesnt know how to schedule. She schedules me on days my therapist is out of the office Schedules my telehealth visits as in person when I have no car to get there and schedules visits I dont want without me asking this has resulted in me almost getting kicked out of this clinic multiple times and fractionary care.

I called to try to make an appointment and told them I had both United Health Care and Wellcare insurance. I was told they dont take United Health Care which is fine so then I said the Wellcare is fine to just use that they pay better anyways. I was then told that I could not do that since I had 2 insurances they couldnt just bill one. Then I asked if I could just pay out of pocket and was told I couldnt do that since I already had insurance. I shouldve just called and only mentioned the Wellcare insurance from the start I guess. I dont usually make reviews but this is absolutely ridiculous and I really think people need to be aware of the unwillingness to help people. Like what kind of establishment is this

Frequently Asked Questions
Use visual aids. You can use picture schedules, videos, social stories, and other visual aids to show your child what to expect.
Take your child for a practice visit. This can be the same as the orientation visit, or it can be a “dry run” of an appointment where the dentist doesn’t actually work on your child’s teeth yet.
Bring items to fulfill sensory needs. Bringing your child’s favorite fidgets and toys so they can play during the appointment will be helpful.
Reduce unnecessary stress before and after. Reduce demands by wearing comfortable clothes, getting lots of rest, eliminating unnecessary activities (like grocery shopping — order for pick up!), and doing the things that relax your child. Your child will be able to regulate better when every day stressors are kept at a minimum.
Your pediatrician might be able to administer screenings, but most general doctors are not trained to formally diagnose autism. They might refer you to a qualified diagnostic clinician which include:
Developmental Pediatricians
Child Psychologists
Child Psychiatrists
Pediatric Neurologists
Pediatric Neuropsychologists
Your experience might look different depending on the type of clinician you choose. Many families prefer working with developmental pediatricians. Others might work with a psychiatrist or another specialist to get a different perspective.
A formal ASD diagnosis, or a medical diagnosis, helps you get the support your family needs, especially within the context of accessing medically necessary therapies and services.
Insurance Coverage for Therapies: Medically necessary therapies for ASD are often covered by insurance including, but not limited to, speech therapy, ABA therapy, and occupational therapy.
Financial Support: A diagnosis is required when applying for social security or disability benefits.
Plan for Care: A diagnosis helps identify your child’s support needs. For example, your child might need to develop social communication and self-regulation skills.
Future Research: The more data we gather through evaluations, the more we can improve services for autistic children and adults.
In a typical allergic reaction, your child’s body encounters an allergen (like pollen, dander, or pet hair) and sees it as a threat. Trying to protect itself, the immune system sends out a special protein called IgE antibodies to the mast cells in your child’s body. When your child comes in contact with the allergen again, those cells release chemicals (like histamines or eosinophils). The chemicals the antibodies release cause inflammation. That’s why your child’s nose gets stuffy and runny, or their skin breaks out in a rash when they come in contact with an allergen.
There are several types of allergies that children can have. Your child may experience one or more of these. While there are some rare ones out there, these are the most common types:
Allergic Rhinitis: This is when your child has allergies to things like pollen, dust, or pet dander in the air.
Food Allergies: Some children are allergic to certain foods like peanuts, milk, eggs, or fish.
Drug Allergies: Your child may be allergic to certain medicines. If they take a medicine they’re allergic to, they might get a rash, hives, or feel sick.
Insect Sting Allergies: If your child gets stung by a bee, wasp, or fire ant, they might have an allergic reaction.
Contact Allergies: Some people have a reaction when their skin touches certain things, like certain metals, latex, or plants (such as poison ivy).
Allergic Asthma: This is a specific subtype of asthma where asthma symptoms are triggered by things the person is allergic to, like pollen or pet dander.

Yes, a psychiatrist is a good person to speak with regarding medication for your child. While you might have an idea of what might work for your child, it’s best to have a conversation with a medical professional, such as a psychiatrist. What works for one autistic child may not work for another, so consider your child’s individual needs and goals.
If you’d like to explore prescription medications or supplements for your child, weigh your options and concerns with your child’s medical team and create a plan. Discuss developments and side effects with your child’s doctor and adjust as needed.
When you visit a neurologist, they’ll assess your child’s needs, run some tests (think imaging or EEG), and diagnose. From there, they’ll create a customized treatment plan. Medication, lifestyle tweaks, or maybe even a referral to another specialist could be on the table.
There unfortunately isn’t one test for all neurodevelopmental conditions. Most likely you will go into a visit to test one or two medical conditions. If you are looking for a comprehensive autism evaluation, developmental pediatricians, psychologists, or neuropsychologists are the preferred specialists who can diagnose autism.
No, neurologists focus mainly on non-surgical interventions. If your child needs surgery, neurologists might point you in the direction of a pediatric neurosurgeon.
