Reviews of Medical Group of the Carolinas - Psychiatry (Psychiatrist)

Jasmine Anderson

The NP is a joke! She wasn't concerned about the issue at hand, only about herself. She wasn't willing to listen and understand how I was feeling and what I was going through. I was trying to express what I was feeling and she continued to cut me off. Very uncaring and selfish! I wouldn't recommend anyone wasting there time with her!

Christina Blake, NP was the rudest most unprofessional health care provider I have every been treated by. She was 20 minutes late for my appointment and when she did come in to the room the first thing she said was we do not prescribe medication. She cute me off mid sentence and kept asking me about my previous doctor. She said I did not need to be on medicine because medication makes you depressed and anxious. She did my issues were “family drama” and I need a therapist. She instructed me to quit my medicines at once and wrote on a sticky pad a web page to go to and pick a therapist in the area to go to. I had been on my medication for 9 years so common sense should tell you that you can not stop medication abruptly. I decided to go to a new doctor with GHS/Prisma and after questions and labs I was diagnosed with Bio-polar depression and border line personality disorder and I as on the wrong regiment of medication. Christina could have cared less about me as a patient or person. She stated she had read my chart and knew my issues. Mental illness is a serious disease and she acted as if it was all a joke! Please do not use this practice and seek medical care somewhere else.

Everytime I visit here...there is always a nice and friendly staff from the time you walk in until the time walk out....The nurses and doctors are very nice and helpful and they try there best to make sure you are completely satisfied before you leave..If you don't have MyChart- Spartanburg Regional I recommend getting that as you can do a lot with it. Such as making/changing appointments, medication refills, paying co pays, lab results, and so on! Very convenient I'd say..I would most definitely recommend this place to anyone who is looking for a great psychiatrist to come to...Also it's best to get a doctor's referral from your family doctor,so that you can get in there a lot sooner because they stay pretty booked..hope this review helps someone out..

The doctors are awful. Very little concern with what you, as a patient, are actually going through. I was told the side effects I was feeling were not important. Nor were other symptoms I was experiencing — though they affected my every day life. The physician was completely dismissive. He also interrupted me numerous times, making it clear that how I felt and the other options I wanted to consider were of no significance to him. The physician also refused to see me in a reasonable amount of time to follow up. 12 weeks. 12 weeks is not a reasonable amount of time to follow up with someone who has continued to experience symptoms of depression and worsening side effects of a medication. And, no, it was not a new medication that I was trying to “see if it works”. I had been on it for over 6 months, a good amount of time, because I wanted it to work, but finally decided I needed to change since the side effects were so disruptive. After three visits, one with the NP, and the others with a psychiatrist where I was dismissed, interrupted, and invalidated, I couldn’t go anymore. It took months for me to get that first appointment with a psychiatrist in my network, which I sought out the first week I moved to Spartanburg. —(Which, as a side note, wouldn’t be as frustrating if MGC didn’t have the completely unnecessary step after being referred by my PC, of having another preliminary appointment with an NP, who did nothing other than act as a “gatekeeper” to the psychiatrists) — After waiting all that time I couldn’t believe how bad of a physician the psychiatrist turned out to be. I am not the only one who has had this kind of experience here and can’t believe how poor the quality of care — if you can call it that — the psychiatrists in Spartanburg provide, from what I have heard. Because I move frequently I have had to transfer to different psychiatrists every new city I live in, and thus have seen a few. This practice and the psychiatrist I saw is the worst one I have ever been to.

What a JOKE! my issues were not addressed AT ALL! i was treated like a guinea pig trying different medications. the NP that i seen treated me as i was just a paycheck and had no concern as to why i was feeling the way i was just said that she could "fix me" would not reccomend at all. whole building is a complete waste of time.
