REVIEWS OF Adult and Child Health IN Indiana

Amazing staff that genuinely care about their clients!

Been back three times for an open assessment, but I apparently can't get there early enough for their liking even though that's the buses' fault, not mine. They take people before they are even open and if you're not there the second someone shows up to open the doors, you're screwed and will never be seen. There's no way to make an appointment or even put your name in ahead of time for the next day. Nevermind the fact that I need to be evaluated so I can let my college know. If you have any other options, take them. These people obviously don't care too much about their patients. But then again, it seems like all mental health places are like this. As in they don't care unless you've tried to off yourself.

I never actually received treatment from this place. I called to make an appointment to see doctor Benjamin May. According to the Blue Cross Blue Shield website, Doctor May practices at the Franklin office (in addition to the Indy office) so I called the Franklin number provided by Blue Cross via there website. The woman who answered the phone at Adult Child and Health was rude to me from the get go. She told me there is no such doctor that works at Adult and Child Health, which is fine, obviously Blue Cross was wrong or Dr. May used to work there but doesn't anymore or some other reason. That is understandable. What isn't understandable is the way she treated me. Like I was an idiot. She did not try to help me or offer any other suggestions and was just rude. It sucks to get treated like that. I guess it's probably a good thing I didn't go here after all considering all the 1 star reviews this place has received.

I have been going to Adult and Child over a year, with everything I've been through I have been provided with the best care. With my mental health I can be a handful. Not everyday I walk into the building with the most positive attitude. However the staff are welcoming, respectful, and very understanding. When I walk in they remember me off the bat. I also find many of the resources to be very useful that the center has to offer. My therapist is wonderful and I'm so grateful with the wisdom she provides. The nurses and doctors are also very understanding. Please remember that when you walk into Adult and Child it is the staffs job to help you. Also remember it doesn't take one day to figure out the best care and treatment to give you. Everyone is different and we all go through something. If it was easy understanding someone in a day that would be great but sadly thats not how life works. Remember to be kind and understanding because trust me when you are people are most likely to help you. Is this center perfect no, then again nothing is. You can make the experience good or bad you just have to chose what path you want to take.

Melinda Hart

Today I saw my new therapist and he actually impressed me with how he handled the session. I am hopeful now for the first time in my life that I can actually get better! I have not had the negative experience that others are talking about. The desk clerks have been very nice and professional. I have not had the experience of using their medical doctor, but I have an appointment in about a week, I guess I will find out for myself how it is.

lauren hinrichsen

Do not send your child here, do not get in school services through them. My son's therapists have shared his personal health information with individuals who have no professional need for it. I took my son here because he needs help. Please, find a doctor that actually cares. This is a business, they care about money, not your children. They'll send you a bill faster than they call you back.

no one there has a clue whats going on..

Alexis Carrion

My son was involved in this program for three years in three years he never made improvements. I would receive txt constantly from therapist complaining about my sons ADHD behaviors which was why he was in the program to begin with. I would need to miss work every three months for pointless meetings. Then was told "our Psychologist with Adult & Child recommendations were to have biweekly meetings with you and your son to work on skills needed to meet his objectives in the classroom and home settings." Mind you his home setting is perfectly fine, so again they want me to miss time from work every other week for pointless meetings to complain about my child... this program is a JOKE.

Laura Howell

This Is ridiculous adult and child has a horrible practice of having open assessments which means you have to show up very early in the morning, And for someone who works full-time and has to be at work early in the morning that's next to Impossible. I waited two hours in a packed waiting room With crappy air conditioning, kids that were screaming, And I still was not seen for an assessment. I walked out in worse mental health then when I walked through the door. All I want to do is be responsible for my mental health, be seen and get medication and get counseling but I can't even do that because you can't be freaking seen unless you show up at 7:30 in the morning before they even Start taking people, Pack into the waiting room and wait like a bunch of laboratory rats. The way Mental Health Care practices are going with this open-enrollment b******* is ridiculous. This is not effective in my eyes and Not helpful. It seems to be Common practice now for mental health agencies to do their enrollments like this instead of offering appointments. The staff should have to go through the process and then understand what it's like for a potential client. And then you might understand what a grueling and unenjoyable process it is. So, does a person have to threaten self harm and go to inpatient to get proper care right away or what? People should not have to put up with this b*******. I don't recommend going here I recommend finding somewhere thats private practice that takes appointments for assessment if you can. Also they are notorious for breaching confidentiality.

WELL TODAY WAS THE 1ST DAY I WENT INTO ADULT AND CHILD THE GUY NAMED TOM HE CALLED ME IN I TOLD HIM IM ON MEDICARE HE ASKED ME HOW ARE YOU ON MEDICARE WHEN YOUR ONLY 45? I SAID IM ON DISSABILLITY HE ASKED WHAT FOR? I SAID MILD SLOW HE SAID MILD RETARDATION? HE TOLD ME THEY CANT PUT ME INTO COUNSELING BECAUSE OF ME BEING MILDLY SLOW TOM SAID THAT WERE NOT DOING SINGLE COUNSELING AT THIS TIME HE TOLD ME TO LOOK FOR ANOTHER COUNSELOR WHO DEALS WITH MENTAL RETARDATION PEOPLE. I THINK THAT WASNT APPROPIATE BEHAVIER THAT TOM HAD AGAINST ME AND I THINK THATS NOT RIGHT THAT THEY SINGLE ME OUT LIKE THAT.

Stacy Carlisle

Frank u.s.a

This place just keeps getting worse and worse the only thing they care about is getting the money from the insurance companies

No Name

can't keep staff. too many problems with scheduling and seem to care less

Michael Morrison

I started going here for counseling and psychiatry earlier this year and from the first time I felt like just another client. The women at the access center can't help anyone and each of them will tell you a completely different thing. I wasn't able to attend my appointments due to the fact that I had to go to a rehab center out of town which they became fully aware of the day that it happened. As soon as I prepared to return home I called to schedule an appointment which I did. As soon as i got home, they told me I'd have to wait a month to reschedule due to a new program they were implementing. I was fine. I had refills. After a month I called to schedule again for today. Yesterday I get a call that says that my account had been canceled and that even though I am completely out of medication and have a record with the same medication on it they will not help me. It's clear what business these people are in and it's not the business of helping people.

Fred Taylor

I have been trying to get help from them for 4 months now. Got to see therapists once and he didn't know what to do with me except recommend inpatient treatment. Then I started seeing Tina Baxter the nurse practitioner who has helped with some medication but I had alot of trouble getting a refill when the holidays rolled around. I went without meds for 3 days and was very sick! The front desk was rude and not helpfully. Just today I had to call to find out if I can see a doctor? Well after scheduling me with a psychiatrist I asked he's the front desk'whats the difference between a psychiatrist and a psychologist? She said "I have no ideal" WHAT! how can they have people working there that doesn't even know the difference!? That's why we don't get our meds on time or our appts confirmed! That's why we don't have the help we need! This is why the jails are over crowded and you can't get help with addiction cause no one is qualified! Things need to change and stop being a front for the governments.

silvermystic2001

It's very hard to change therapists if you don't like who they give you. The front desk people are pretty crappy customer service. They have attitudes for one. Second, they play around talk with each other, so if you're trying to sign in and you interupt their play time they are rude to you. IF you stick up for yourselves, then you're always in the wrong. You basically have to kiss their %*%/*. The therapist I have now is nice and some other lady is nice as well. Though, shortly ill be going to a faith based therapy. They can't do that here. It's secular which is sad that they can't do both. I do recommend this place if you find someone you like. If I did go back, hopefully I can have who I had. Katy R. Was my therapist and she's great and Christy Dixon was the lady that gave pills, she's nice too.

They take months to even get u into see a psychiatrist, place is a joke!

Lorrie Thomas

They help me learn to copping skills and handling my anxiety!

Michael Chandler

Love it good for irving my son?

Adriana

This place is an absolute joke! After establishing a primary one month later I found out she has moved to a new office. Because this doctor's office was right next to where I lived I agreed to try a new doctor. Asked for a female and was told there are no female doctors in the office. Bad choice I feel like for any office? After being a little frustrated I settled to see Dr. Streibel as my primary. They told me to arrive 30 minutes early for new patient paperwork even though I had just done that the time before with the doctor before. When I arrived I was told I didn't actually have to fill it out and just sat and waited the time. Wasn't seen until 30 minutes after my scheduled appointment time so I waited about an hour. When Streibel came in it didn't seem like a new patient appointment AT ALL. He didn't get to know me or anything other asking what was wrong with me. Had never even heard of my diagnosis I received from the ER and just told me to buy some vitamins and rushed out. Figuring I was done I walked to the front, asked if that was everything, was told yes, and walked home. An hour later I get a call to come back and to ask why I left? They took unnecessary blood work when I arrived for the second time. I asked for a reference to see a counselor for anxiety and was sent info for open access which is THE BIGGEST JOKE. First come first serve but you have to arrive before 7AM to even get a spot for the day and have to come back at your scheduled time. Overall horrible experience.

kefira14

Honestly, have no idea why this place has such bad reviews but I only see a counselor. The counselor I have is great. As for the people at the front desk, the only problem I've had is canceling appointments with them but it's gotten better over the past few months.

stephanie scott

I don't like adult and child at all anymore i was doing what I need to do and thing come up unexpectedly that are out of my control and they drop me when my health is getting to where I can't sit I throw up more and more and I got answer from a test I had done like Dr told me to do but no response from mark striebel for 5 week it was getting worst while waiting so finally I made appointment I really didn't know if I could make and they dropped me then I get call to make appointment with Joyce I call they tell me to call back today then they say call back next Monday I could've got appointment when I called yesterday then they said mark striebel never cancel on me but I actually complemented him when he makes me wait says he be back and never is and never gives results they may think I am the bad one for yelling but who make someone suffer over rules when they try their best that the bad people!!

Christina Redmon

I went to adult and child for the very first time two weeks ago. The therapist Yvonne that I saw and met that day was horrible. She didn't know why I was even there, she was completely lost and uninformed. I told her about some trauma that happened in my life and she made it out to be my fault. I get anxiety just thinking about seeing a new therapist on the 20th of this month. I dont ever want to go back to see therapists like that. Instead of preventing suicide and helping ppl with depression, anxiety, and PTSD, this place will make u want to kill urself bc u wont get any help here! It was a horrible place with a horrible therapists whom only caused harm and it was a horrible experience

Lanaye Combs

These people cause more issues in your household then they do helping you

Samantha Mullins

They were a waste of my time, insurance and money. I think I should call my insurance company and let them know I feel they took there money for service they didn't do.

Dapri Lewis

I WAS SUPPOSE TO HAVE A COUNSELER STOP BY YESTERDAY AT 12 WHICH I WAS HOME WAITING UNTILL 1 SHE DIDNT SHOW UP! I WENT STRAIGHT BACK TO THE OFFICE AT ADULT AND CHILD THE LADY AT THE 1ST WINDOW WAS VERY RUDE POINTED GO OVER!! THIS TELLS ME TO NOT EVER GO BACK THERE AGAIN AND IM GOING TO FILE A COMPLAINT WITH THE BBB

Do not go here. Do not send your children here.

Enjoyed the services here for several years . Have attended a few classes that were helpful.. The problem I have encountered there is the large overturn of therapist , Dr's and staff. I have gone through several therapist that have left . One i know fr sure under duress of the conditions of the job . My prescribing Dr. Has changed several times in as many years. Even the pharmacy staff doesnt stay for long. There's been several turnovers there for some reason . When you need a soft place to fall, so to speak . A refuge . A place you feel safe . Coming to A and C can be hectic and frustrating . Ive gotten there after dragging myself out of bed , ontime fr my appt and they tell me . Im sorry your therapist took another appt . ahead of you it'll be another hour . Really ? Or Im sorry Dr. So and so retired, oh you didnt get the letter in the mail? Would you like to reschedule with the nurse practioner in abt 2 weeks ? On and on . You get the feeling the employees are as frustrated as the patients.

I wish I could give this place zero stars. They can’t get any information correct and keep giving us the run around and wasting our time. My kid needs someone to talk to and they just aren’t that worried about it

James Dickerson

I was brought to the Madison St office 3 weeks ago. Since then I have daily called trying to speak to someone about the intake and the fact I would rather go to the Ohio St office. I wish to do so because there is no bus service to the Madison St location in Greenwood. Today I call the office and was on hold for over 30 minutes. I pressed 1 to leave a message> I explained that it has been 3 weeks and i wanted a call TODAY!. 3 hour later I went through the same on hold time and I hit 0 to speak to an operator. I asked for the office manager to address my issues. I was forwarded to another damm voicemail. Left the message that if i did not hear from anyone today by 4 I was all done with that place. So come 4 o'clock today I went on to St Vincent's for assistance. I am homeless, sleeping in a tent. I was at the men's shelter that had more drugs inside than I have seen outside. So I left If I wanted to be around a trigger for my mental health issues I would go back on crack. They know what goes on there. I spoke to Brian Paul about this and the way they addressed my service dog illegally. Well Adult & Child Center. i do not know how you supposedly help people when you never answer your phones, return calls and I am still homeless after talking to you for over a month. It's ok I would rather sleep outside than deal with such uncaring people.

My experience with A&C health was pretty positive. My daughter struggles with anxiety and has some on-going medical health issues. We were pretty happy with the anxiety treatment, but when they added their family medicine service, we were able to get all of her care in one appointment. The doctor was great with kids and really understood my concern as her dad.

Please don't go here! Please learn from my mistake. I had to cancel an appointment (which they were fone with I gave them plenty of notice and they had told me that its a 3 times missed and your out tupe of place) becuase my insurance was screwed up. Anyone with state insurance will know that they take their time even though it was the state's error. After a couple weela I got it fixed so I called back and tpld them I could reschedule now. They informed me they didnt have anything for 6 weeks out. But would call if anyone cancelled. I really needed to be seen asap and knew with my insurance it would probably take longer to switch providers. So I made the appt. I have quite a few mental health problems as well as extreme abuse over an 8 year marriage. I desperately needed help to function. I recently had to cut all my hair off due to not brushing it when it was all the way down my back. Its hard to do basic things. So I really needed someone to help me that cared about mental health. Well today was the day. After so many days of stress and trying to not go admit myself I call to make sure I'm going to the right building ( I had been there omce gor intake because you have to walk in and wait for the 1st time then they will schedule you and appt) they said yes its this building at this time you're good to go. I decide ill get ready to go and head that way when I'm walking out the door I get a call back. Sorry they canceled your appt. You should have gotten a letter (never did not even a phone call) they cancelled your case becuase you didnt make enough appts....wait what??? You are the ones who told me I had to wait 6 weeks. Idk if they are planning to try to chathe my insurance for anything but I just got off the phone and informed them of what happened to make sure they don't rip the state off too. I was told I had to walk in again, wait (last time it took 5 hours to be talked too I actually fell asleep) then they will open your case again. No thanks. Not so I can eait weeks again then be told since you guys couldn't see me that I didn't have enough appts and be canceled again. MY MENTAL HEALTH IS MORE IMPORTANT THEN THIS. HOW DARE YOU PEOPLE TREAT PEOPLE WHO ARE SUFFERING LIKE THIS. I WILL MAKE SURE TO WARN ANYONE LOOKING FOR HELP TO STAY AWAY FROM HERE. PEOPLE WHO ARE SUFFERING SHOULD MATTER MORE THEN THIS AND YOU GUYS WILL END UP DOING IT TO THE WRONG PERAON AND THEY WILL END UP KILLING THEMSELVES BECAUSE THEY TRIED TO REACH OUT FOR HELP. THIS PLACE NEEDS SHUT DOWN OR NEEDS TO RE EAVLUTE ITS RULES WHEN IT KICKS PEOPLE OUT BECUASE THEY DIDNT HAVE OPENINGS FOR AN APPT FOR 6 WEEKS!

I have been a client of Adult and Child for years. I have received restorative and professional healthcare for many years. Lori Kartch and Dr Sid have done an outstanding job. I fail to understand how all the negative comments exist. If you are reading this for the first time, please understand that not everyone is honest or accurate about their experiences with mental health facilities. Take the bad with a grain of salt. If you are commenting, be honest. Getting mental health isn't always fun or easy to do. Be fair about what you comment online. In the ratings people either rate as 5 or 0. Very black or white opinions. To be accurate your experience of Adult and Child should not be a dichotomy. It should include the good the bad and the in between.
