Dr. Abdel Fahmy, MD

Be sure to research this doctor before you begin treatment with him. Or, if you've just started, get out now. If you've ...experienced his wrath, his instability, I assure you it will not get any better and will leave you feeling desperate and in a bad place. He will create drama and invent situations that will result in you being without meds. It's a game he plays, it's completely unnecessary & intentional. Treatment results in more shame, and he encourages addict behaviors. He manipulates patients by threatening to withhold meds, by never being consistent, and creates a relationship where the patient is dependent on him. Oh how he loves that power. Patients begging, more desperately than if someone threatened to take away oxygen. He knows this. Beware of glowing reviews, it's him and/or staff. And note the positive reviews who attempt to discredit the numerous negative reviews by shaming them by claiming their active users who didn't get what they wanted. I'm a healthy, sober man & know other former patients who are stable & clean who report the exact experience as mine. Research him. I found a different treatment center and eventually went off it, but still am processing the turbulent year I had with him. more details
