[This is from an online version of "A Physicians Story of Psychiatric Torture"]
When I contacted Dr Igbal, an Indian-American doctor and the previous residency director of the University of Hawaii School of Medicine about the matter of my being a victim of psychiatric abuses and requested professional assistance and asked for my contract back in Hawaii after the case in Texas he arrogantly replied no and that there would be no further consideration of the matter. Now Dr Edeiken had finally succeeded in turning the entire orthodox medical community against me with the help of Dr Pearlman and I was seeing they were succeeding in crushing my mental health care reform initiatives and killing off open minded liberal thinkers in psychiatry. Dr Streltzer, who was the residency director in Hawaii in 1981 when I had just completed my elective in his department, was a nice guy and open minded and was recruiting me for his department. Dr Streltzers progressive instincts in dealing with mental health care were replaced by the reactionary, dangerous, close minded ignorance of Dr Igbal as the entire discipline of psychiatry, even in the beautiful Aloha state of Hawaii, began to swing its attitudes back in time under the influence of the psychopaths, Dr Edeiken and Dr Pearlman, and their fixed case in Texas. And Dr Igbal has turned out to be a real heartache I am certain for many other people from India many of whom are very polite, intelligent, and manifest a great deal of emotional intelligence. Clearly this arrogant and elitist Harvard trained psychiatrist has been abusing the training which he was privileged to obtain to create a mental health care "Untouchable Class" as has existed in and has been extremely distasteful in social classes in India. And of course this all now leaves me with serious questions about the integrity and quality of training in every psychiatry program in the United States including at Harvard. Shockingly everything which had made me successful in life and which was heading me towards future success in life is now being said to be part of a serious mental illness which I do not and never suffered from, bipolar disorder, because of the ignorant attitudes of Dr Igbal and his ignorant professional colleagues like Dr Pearlman and Dr Edeiken. Whom I must ask is Dr Harold Mandel than if he is not supposed to be the hard driving, outgoing, friendly, ambitious person with a firm committment to quality mental health care and who loves the outdoors and sports, particularly water sports, and who has fallen in love with the island way of life, whom I was when I was growing up and whom I still am now at middle age.
The arrogance of Dr Igbal and his likewise criminally insane associate in Texas, Dr Pearlman, has resulted in the cementing of a tragically inhumane and brutal direction in American psychiatric education and in the practice of psychiatry which has not shifted even one but ever since President Obama took office showing Dr Igbal has been successful in enforcing a "New Untouchable Class" via the use of brutal mental health care abuses!
