If he indicates he thinks he is still manic I might ask him about the ethics of seeing patients when is mood is so abnormal.

I think you've found the right answer in your final paragraph. Also, you might tell him you were considering cancelling because of it, assuming you go. I would see that as doing him a favor. If he is still manic and he doesn't appreciate such feedback, I'd look elsewhere and report him. It is sad, but his profession really requires he be stable (or mostly) when seeing patients.
