I have been seeing Dr Shershow for a few months and he immediately prescribed me medication within 5 minutes of seeing him. I tried it out but each follow up I had concerns regarding side affects and he kept upping my dose. Recently I tried to get an appointment with him, giving him 2 weeks before my medication ran out and I still can't get an appt. His office's solution?- pay $125 for a 10-15 minute phone consultation that is not covered by insurance and then he can call in my prescription to my pharmacy. I have nothing aga... read more

The worst psychiatrist I have ever been to in my 15 years of having one. Basically, you self-medicate as he asks want med you want and then writes the prescription. The initial apt which is meant to be one-hour is only 30min where he asks absolutely no questions or details about your history. Just asks which medication you have been on and if you want to change it. He has given me the completely wrong prescription three different times, and when I called him from the pharmacy to tell him, he refuses to refill it over the pho... read more

They answered most of my questions but I could have used more information. Their staff is very friendly and professional. I feel like my appointment was pointless. If you want a prescription writing robot, them go see this doctor. He gave me twice the dose that I needed of something that I didn't even need. I had a very bad reaction and when called him was told to continue the medication. I went for a second opinion and was told to discontinue the medication immediately!!!!

This was the worst experience I've ever had in my life. First, the doctor made a double booking, and there was somebody else when came. He had to reschedule. When I came the second time, he was really mean to me. I didn't notice the button on the side of the entrance door, but the room was open, so I entered. He said that I should have rung the bell, and even though he was with me, he made me go out and ring the bell. I was so surprise at his behavior that instead of walking away from that rude person, I did what he requeste... read more
