Dr. JC Van Doren
Use careful consideration when chosing a mental health professional

If you're looking for a compassionate mental health care provider, think twice before seeing Dr. JC Van Doren.

With each appointment to his office, I've sensed he was uninterested, hurried, distracted and NOT listening. He sits behind his desk and seems to be checking email. (His chart notes are hand written.)

In over 6 months of care, with little progress acheived, he made absolutely no changes to my treatment plan. Fortunately I was resourceful enough to find a psychiatrist who is innovative, up on the latest medications for the treatment of chronic depression and LISTENS. I just regret not having found her sooner.

Dr. Van Doren conveniently does not bill health insurance carriers and requires cash payment, up front. For this reason, I am inclined to believe his sole motive is for financial gain. He clearly has no sincere concern and is not a diplomatic patient advocate.
