I miss her so much! When I heard of her passing it was like loosing a parent or a loved one, Diane was one of the only people who knew me. She treated me in my early adult life and helped me to understand so much about myself. Several times over the course of my adult life I had reached out to her to ask for help and was told she had changed her practice to only see women. At times this was devastating but I had no choice but to accept it. Now for several years I have been trying to find a new psychiatrist without much luck.... read more

Seen her for a short while, right off the bat pushed me into speaking about things i wasnt ready too & she decided to close my file bc i cancelled an appointment while i was in labour with my daughter and didnt contact back soon enough. trust me that was the last thought on my mind having to learn to be a new mom, maybe if your patients have a lot on there plate you should reach out to them not close there file without telling anyone.

I saw her for a year. If you were severely depressed, she would definitely push you over the edge. She is a pill pusher; extremely full of herself; demanding and calls down the Mental Health Care system in Thunder Bay. If you don't follow through with what she suggests, she gets VERY angry! This woman SHOULD NOT be practicing Psychiatry! I had a previous psychiatrist who was empathic, professional and caring through tele-medicine so I know the difference from good n bad.

Very thorough , By the end of the first session she confirmed what I had suspected was a previous misdiagnosis and pointed me in the right direction . She didnt "push pills" but suggested new treatments that required commitment and diligence on my part to be a part of my own mental health team. She is a no nonsense professional who is passionate about her work. The only advice I can give is Dont waste her time because there are others that need and want to do the work required to help heal themselves.
