Reviews of Thapar Ramesh K MD (Psychiatrist)

Lauren Nicole

HORRIBLE! Was referred by the hospital and upon my first appointment I was told AFTER I paid that the doctor would be leaving the country for 3 months. Was given only enough meds for one month. Plus he changed all my working meds around, added two more. When I went back after his 3 month vacation, he said he could not treat me because I was on too many meds. THE SAME MEDS HE PUT ME ON. He referred me to a clinic after taking my money. i will be reporting him to the AMA.

Office is a joke. This is a standard pill pushing operation. 10-15 minute interview and then dispenses prescriptions. They rarely answer the phone and never respond to messages. This guy actually never showed up for our second appointment, called his office several times and never received a return call. Cannot recommend.

This place is quite unprofessional. This was to be my first appointment. I had forgotten the time so I called 2 hrs b4 appt and had to leave a message bc they never answer the phone. I ask to have text sent to me of appt time. I go in store for 30 minutes come out no text but 2 missed calls with message to call back. That did me a lot of good since they don't answer. Left another message and when I got home I called for 5 minutes straight and no one ever answered and no one got back to me. I go at time I think it is and 20 minutes later still waiting. I left. Completely unacceptable and poor professionalism. Don't waste your time. Find another psychiatrist.

Wonderful!! I'm surprised to see the bad reviews and sorry to those w those negative experiences. Sounds frustrating for sure. PERHAPS misunderstandings? My exp is that Dr. Thapar is a GOOD psychiatrist!! I've seen enough to know. I was w him since 2011 to 2017. He is patient, kind, listens, isn't afraid to show empathy and truly gets the psyche of mind mental and emotional connection and true life difficulties. I'm afraid I exp not great recep phn sit. also AT TIMES but don't throw baby out w bathwater! When u r calm try to tell the DOCTOR so he can b aware. Also, note, he's only 1 man and becuz hes so gd in high demand! In several positions in the county at least! He helped my husb realize needed higher dose prev dr for YEARS had on same dose nvr tstd levels.. wasted years. Dr Thapar was is a Godsend. Ur doc shld b tstng bld levels! Please don't give up! We have to be our own advocate which I know is extremely difficult when depressed and anxious but please keep trying. I moved out of area so had to find new Dr. limited to VA now excrutiating... went through 2 maybe 3 now. If u find bad 1 and u get btr/feel btr report the bad 1 and post rvws gd bad asap so we can help ea other like here! A bad 1 can push a person to end, a good one can truly help. They MAY hav meant well begining of career, hope not just in for money, but some may need a jolt that they need to do better, not just be pill pusher, or worse, treat us like we are robots, pass judgement instead of truly and accurately assess with some shred of humanity! It MAY be tuff for docs to weed out those looking for easy ride or pills to get high on (no judgment but plz seek help, love/respect urself u deserve it!!❤), but u know how it is.. docs c lots of broken ppl with addiction probs but explain and if u hav tru dire situation AND good Dr, u can get help. If true dire and Dr no listen, move to dif doc! Don't settle for I'll equipped Dr to affect ur life even more!! You deserve and need better!! Go w ur gut if c pattern. I often regret not listen to gut/instinct. Find a GOOD church/synogogue/mosque what hav u, too.. real people, no judgement, GOD loving. And attend! At least 50% of time. U wont regret it but if u dont attend, good chance for regrets. Self experience...:/ life of if knew then what know now...God bless us all!! With love, ur sister in Christ Jesus. I dont know enuf of the hashtag deal but if i did id say #We RRRR our brothers keeper... spread the love

I've been seeing Dr Thapar for eight years. I was referred to him by my previous med management doctor, whom I saw for more than 28 years. He is extremely well qualified, and has been kind and caring. I am sad to see the questionable bad reviews: one earlier reviewer remarked upon a three month absence of his, without any doctor coverage. This is completely BOGUS. Another reviewer said they had a problem with making appointments. This has never been a problem for me, nor has being left without medications, as another reviewer said. His office always calls a day or two ahead of appointments to remind you, which is very helpful.

Worst psychiatrist. To begin, every time I went in I had to wait an hour or more past my appt time. Also he just gave me an appt slip of paper before walking out and didn’t even ask what would work best for me. My therapist has tried to reach him multiple times and NEVER got a call back from him or the office. He just overschelduled people and made them wait long times. The receptionist is also rude and once even forgot to give me change for my co pay. I am glad I switched psychiatrist. If you are looking for one DO NOT go here!!

Sara Duffy

I had an appointment. I showed up twenty minutes early because I assumed I’d have to fill out paperwork and the door was locked. I called the office and someone answered. I told them I was here for an appointment and the door was locked. THEY HUNG UP ON ME. I called back multiple times later and got no answer each time. I took time off work to go to the appointment. No one ever called to ask why I “didn’t show up” or if I wanted to reschedule. I’m disgusted. So unprofessional.

Sarah Bush

Incredible psychiatrist! Dr. Thapar seems to have a way of truly understanding his clients and their symptoms. This adds to his ability to effectively diagnose, treat with precision & achieve desired results. He spends time with his clients, sharing his knowledge and ensuring they understand their diagnoses & treatment. He takes a true interest in his clients & is dedicated to their progress. He’s truly an expert in his field & I can recommend him with full confidence.

If they tell you that their system is down when you try to make an appointment, even after I was told the date of my last visit which would be impossible to tell if the system was really down right?....This means that they dont want to see you or help you. Please dont be fooled by the "System is down" Lying is VERY unprofessional and unethical. Hope you stop doing this to people who really need help.

Great therapist
