Only found out my pdoc leaving the practice at the end of July because I called to change an appointment. Luckily there is a practitioner there to keep people prescriptions going. Please note—-I dont just mean anybody. I want someone experienced and expert with bipolar. I am pretty picky. I have had this for decades and hence am very critical of what the change to 15 minute sessions with many insurances has done to the quality of care.
I live in the West valley but would go wherever for someone really good. I am even open to those who dont take insurance. The word is that there is a shortage of pdocs and no wonder with that 15 minute interval.

for many years i went to dr. ramiro guillen of cns center in scottsdale; he is in partnership with his wife, marilyn pupo guillen. i was very comfortable with dr. guillen but when my insurance changed over to medicare, he no longer accepted my insurance. a friend of mine from our health club has been using dr. ramiro guillen for years, who treats her adolescent son and her husband as well. you might look into their website. they had 3 daughters who are probably in college now. he is very soft spoken and very approachable. i would have continued with him longer, had i not gotten old and changed over to medicare. i am a 72 yr. old female. |

I have Medicare also, but he might consider me for private pay. Thanks!

This is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.|
