I've seen this doctor a few times. He asked maybe one question and then wrote me a prescription. I told him I felt suicidal and he did not react and just said okay, well try this medication. I don't feel he took me seriously, he didn't look into my medical history, and he did not ask questions. He seems like someone who cares very little about his patients and is just phoning it in. I gave him the benefit of the doubt and saw him a few times, but each time he rushed me through the appointment and did nothing to help me. Psyc... read more
Very dry personality, does not talk much. Be prepared to do all the talking yourself. Does not like to prescribe multiple medications at a time, we had to be really stern about getting an anti-depressant and an anti-psychiatic. Once he saw the benefits in behavior and mood he agreed to keep the combination. Time spent in the office with him is under 7 minutes per session.
My husband has been going to psychiatrists for years, now it has came down to he just needs to go back for his regular medication every few months thanks to the past doctors who worked with him and figured out what's best for him. Sadly he's previous doc moved away we need to find a new one. He knows what psychiatrists do, how they usually do things. So when he came back and told me this doc kinda of suck, it's a big deal. He rarely chat cos he knows that's more psychologist's job, but when Dr.
My wife saw Dr. Chalfant for three sessions. From the start of the first session, to the end of the third and final session, he showed absolutely no emotion or empathy. At this last session, my wife was crying and asking for help and he just said he can't help her and she needs a different doctor because he won't see her anymore. This is after he already knows she is suicidal....great job doc....NOT!!! He does not like being challenged and seems more concerned with how long you are in there wast
1) Refers you to outside source for diagnosis. 2) Uses outdated DSM to understand said diagnosis. 3) Spends no more than 5 min with patients. Glorified scriptwriter.
Dr. Chalfant has helped me maintain my stability and tweaks my meds as needed. I am a long time psych patient with lots of STL hospital stays. I feel he does really listen to me and cares. Dr. Chalfant offers to change meds if he thinks it could help ,but believes if it ain't broke don't fix it. I am a satisfied patient and after some time feel I have a good therapeutic relationship with Dr. Chalfant.
Took myself off my meds and did like 100% turn around never went back after doing so been syc med free for about 5 months now
No chance of referring anyone. It took almost 5 months to get into the doctor. When I did he said he was going to increase my RX. I was on 60 mg prescribed by my general practitioner. Dr Chalfant stated he was going to increase my dosage amount. For almost a month I took the new dosage (but felt a little off). I just discovered instead of increasing the dosage he accidentally cut the dosage in half. This was my first and last visit. Sloppy
Office manager is horrible and at BEST GOT FIVE MINUTES WITH THE DOCTOR
