North Harbor Pavillion

"Do not recommend this place at all. When someone clearly needs help but they don't get admitted to get said help then something is wrong with that place."

"been here a few years ago, i was having a total mental breakdown due to PTSD and OCD, and they just gave me seroquil and slept pretty much the whole time. and let me go home like 2 days later"

"released a dangerous and delusional individual after 72 hours back to terrify and harass myself and family as we care for his 80 year old mother recovering from a colostomy. their so called psychiatrist had access to very graphic and disturbing voicemails and delusions. This incompetent doctor released him saying the theeats were from drugs and alcohol caused the delusions and violence when in fact the individual was still making threats and spouting delusions that very day by phone from their facility. he had no drugs or alcohol for 3.days and was (and in fact 2 days later still is) threatening.himself and others death. the doctoe refused to speak to me whrn i called to tell.them he was threatening us from thw facility. This is absolutely unacceptable, sickening incompetence and total negligence."

"I have been there, maybe not a plethora of times, but enough to know the doctors there are, at the least, unprofessional, in some way. Dr. Atkins is emotionally immature and obnoxious, while claiming to be a Christian; Dr. Raisani is just plain rude and I never got to see Dr. Newsom because he did not even make rounds, until after he knew everyone was asleep. Maybe he was afraid of being evaluated like these two have been. And I never saw a bill from him, but he claimed I owed him thousands of dollars, which was never paid. It was never paid because I never got a bill, and I did not find out about it, until years later, when I wanted to see him, outside the hospital. His billing, is obviously, too similar to his method of making rounds -- too secretive. Aside from the doctors, the other staff is fine. However, you don't get admitted to a psychiatric unit for the other staff. You go because you need a doctor. Doctors should at least be seen by their patients, not just heard about, or whispered about, rumor style, when the patient wants to know something. The doctor should at least have the courtesy to show up and show his face to his patients. And if they do show up, personal feelings should be left out of it. A patient does not go a hospital to get worse or be insulted and put down. They go to a hospital to get better."
