Disappointing Experience with a Psychiatrist
Initially Promising, But Ultimately Frustrating
Author Tara Rose shares her mixed experience working with Dr. Brenda. At first, she enjoyed the doctor-patient relationship and felt comfortable discussing her mental health concerns. However, things took a turn for the worse when she became pregnant. Despite Dr. Brenda's initial assurance that she could provide support throughout the pregnancy, the doctor's approach fell short.
Lack of Effective Treatment and Unwanted Side Effects
As Tara's pregnancy progressed, her medication stopped working, and Dr. Brenda attempted to adjust the dosage. Unfortunately, the changes led to severe side effects, causing Tara to stop taking the medication altogether. This experience left her feeling frustrated and disappointed with the lack of effective treatment.
Insufficient Referrals and Scope of Practice
Perhaps most concerning was Dr. Brenda's apparent limitation in knowing her scope of practice and when to refer patients to other professionals. This shortfall led Tara to search for alternative care, which eventually led her to the PROMISE clinic at Anchutz.
