Dr. Bryon Kirkland Evans, MD

Psychiatric Consultants of Atlanta will not help you in times of crisis to take an FMLA leave from work. I was told by the unfriendly receptionist that I should have had a therapist and foreseen my crisis better. I did one better - I found a new psychiatrist who will help, and a new therapist who will also help. All were shocked to hear of this practice’s dangerous and uncaring policies. The receptionist also refused to book me an appointment with a physicians assistant (you’ll never get to talk to an actual doctor- again not normal for a psychiatric practice) until I begged. She told me when my last appointment was and when my next appointment was, failing to recognize I needed help right away. They also never once answered their phone on the first call in the 18 months I saw someone here. Every phone call goes to voicemail, and voicemails are not returned. You must call repeatedly sometimes up to 30 minutes to get help. Worst psychiatric experience I’ve ever had, and I’ve been having… them for 24 years. You can find much better treatment in Atlanta.

If you suffer from any type of anxiety, attention or depressive related disorder, do your mental health a huge favor and run. I’m reporting this practice and the practitioners for incompetence, malpractice and medically unethical behavior. The only ray of light from this practice is meeting my soul-psych, who is an absolute godsend! Of course, someone phenomenal wouldn’t continue working with such a deplorable practice and she took her talents elsewhere (AS SIS SHOULD’VE) — However, did this practice provide her forwarding information? No. They REFUSED to provide HER patient with HER forwarding contact information. Their solution, another provider — Earl Delk. Mental healthcare professionals like Earl should be vetted before being allowed to work with patients. As a black woman, I absolutely hate speaking negatively on another person of color, buuut honey... Earl is the stereotypical black man who doesn’t listen to hear, he listens to answer. Is your answer too long? He will cut you… off and answer for you. An initial evaluation will cost full price and will be documented as a ‘41-minute appointment’, BUT will last all of ELEVEN MINUTES. Yes, within ELEVEN MINUTES, Earl Delk is able to do a COMPLETE INITIAL EVALUATION. Ohhh, and you’ll never guess the MOST MEDICALLY UNETHICAL conclusion... EARL DELK will CHANGE your medication WITHOUT your KNOWLEDGE, APPROVAL or CONSENT. Earl Delk will confirm your current medication, confirm your pharmacy and alter the prescription that is sent to the pharmacy. Logically, the first thing you’ll do is call the office to get an answer as to why you medication was changed without your consent, right? Well, good luck! The receptionist, Catherine, is the literal reincarnation of MTV’s Daria. Let me ask you — would you want to interact with Daria whenever it came to your mental health? I wouldn’t. Her voice, tone and entire demeanor scream “I hate my job. I hate my life and I’m tired of dealing with these crazy patients who have mental health issues! Don’t they know I’m checking my Instagram! Ugh.” I don’t know if she actually delivers the messages, but they won’t get returned. Want to speak with the practice manager? Apparently, there isn’t one at the moment and DR. BRYON EVANS is “handling those things”. Will he return your phone calls? No. Will he attempt to rectify the situation? No. But you know what he will do??? He will falsify appointment notes and documents to refute to any dispute filed with your bank. Once you request dispute documents from your bank and see the false information, the first inclination would be to call the practice and get some answers, right? DR. BRYON EVANS WILL ONLY SPEAK WITH YOU IF YOU SCHEDULE AN APPOINTMENT AT FULL PRICE!!! Anyone seeking mental healthcare should avoid this practice like the plague.

Every time I go to Dr. Evans, I am welcomed with open arms. I have been going for 4 years and reading that recent bad review, I know is a complete lie and whoever is doing that is very unprofessional and evil. Dr. Evans is so compassionate about his work and it shows, I don’t know where or who’d I’d be with if I wasn’t with him. Best decision in my opinion!

Did not get to see MD today since we was out of town. Did see two of his NP's that I found to be most helpful to me. Thought they were very thorough and helpful in my visit. Spent an hour going over my history and medications and came up with a game plan to get me feeling better and hopefully back on my feet. Hope to see them again soon.

I've been with Dr. Evans for years. He is the absolute best. Yes, he has a busy practice, but he should be busy because he knows what he's doing and actually cares about his patients. He's worth the wait!!!

Dr. Evans is the best psychiatrist I’ve had in the last 10 years. He has a beautiful office that creates a relaxed environment and is very comfortable while waiting. The staff members are always so happy and friendly. I have always had the best sessions with him he is compassionate and understanding.

We were cancelled twice. Then when we did come in for the appointment we saw a PhD instead that prescribed under Evans name. Then our follow-up had a wait time of over 2 hours. The office manager berated the desk person in front of us and was incredibly rude to us. They refilled my sons prescription without seeing us because we were running out, then said they wouldn't see us. You've been warned.

Wonderful doctor!!!!

I'm 38 and I struggle with depression and anxiety for the past 20 years and I've seen over 6 psychiatrists. Dr. Evans is by far the best I've seen. He listens, cares and takes an interest in his patients.
