I don't think he even ever introduced himself, he was really arrogant. It was a nightmare, I had to see him every day and I was in that place for 30 days. After 2 weeks of being on meds I was doing significantly better, so by the 3rd and 4th week I was wondering why I wasn't getting discharged yet, and found out he was trying to transfer me over to a residential psychiatric hospital in Louisville for a year. I have no clue why, he never even explained it, I found out from a social worker. Previous to that I had never been in any psych wards or anything.
Anyway, he ended up discharging me on the very last day. When my mom came to pick me up he didn't look at her or answer any of her questions. He worked there at the place I was, and at the residential psych hospital, and has a private practice. I've looked up reviews on him years later and have seen a couple good reviews but there were several who wrote of similar issues/experiences with him.

yikes. when i went to the hospital for almost a month the doctor kept trying med after med. Haldol didn't seem to be working and she was like "lets try abilify" i was like "no i tried it before it didn't work". she basically said "if you're not going to try abilify there's nothing else i can do for you." i just like **** it i'll just take the haldol and left after a month trying different meds. i just wanted out. so i went with it
