Dr. Straus is wonderful - he has helped me immensely and given me insights into my issues that no other therapist has. Coping skills, medication information, how to deal with traumas in a new way, it has all helped me a lot. I highly recommend Dr. Straus.
He didn't help my family member. Family member felt rushed and that Dr Straus really didn't care about his problems. He put my family member on very high dose pill and didn't follow up. Called his office when family member went off the rails and they didn't try very hard to follow up. Now we have to start completely over.
Visits are very good. He listens and asks questions.
Excellent psychiatrist, physician, and person. I have worked with Dr. Straus for over ten years and he has helped me overcome many challenges in my life. He is an excellent resource. He is a kind and considerate person. I am grateful to have him on my care team.
I would not recommend. Smart, but arrogant. Selectively addresses patient questions. Plays "therapist" but does so in a way that is unprofessional. Basic problem is low empathy
I survived this doctor. It is troubling that the Antidepresssents and Antipsychotic he dishes out are the very cause of the symptoms themselves, especially as you try to come off them. Just like the opioid crisis, psychotropic drugs are also misleading and dangerous as are the "professionals" who give them out without warning you of the high risks involved and strong probabilities of poor outcomes, including insomnia, akethesia, homicidal/suicidal thoughts and actions, etc, They are also linked to the mass shootings across o... read more
For male patients, I would highly recommend Dr. Straus. For female patients like myself, I have some reservations about recommending. Dr. Straus is very intelligent -- and knows it -- and has the white male + doctor + intelligent arrogance and some disregard for others' feelings. He does not treat me as if I have equal intelligence to him and has discounted when I have talked to him about side effects from a medicine (no bruises all over my body are not due to being a middle age woman).
From my very first visit, Dr. Straus was different from any other psychiatrist I have ever been to. I was very weary of seeing a psychiatrist after being off of meds for a couple of years and being given a variety of diagnoses over the years. My primary care doctor recommended him highly because of my concerns and I am so happy she did. He finally gave me an accurate diagnosis, got me on the right cocktail of meds to help me get back to being “me” again and never pushes meds or dosage changes.
Rude and arrogant. He may be smart but he has no business being in the medical profession.
