Dr. Abby Varkey Kurien

Very poor. Doesn’t listen, talks at you. Rude, condescending , look elsewhere for assistance. Not an advocate for mental health or well being.

I went to him for PTSD and he was great. He listen to me and walked me through my issues. At the time my employer was paying for it. Now that I have state insurance and again I really need him I can’t see him overall I had a wonderful experience with him. Highly recommended.

Saw him for all of maybe 4 mins, wrote me a prescription and when pharmacy called him to verify prescription he said to cancel it. I called him to find out what’s going on and he said don’t call him again, he said I need serious help. He was extremely rude, nasty and completely disrespectful. All he cared about was getting his co-payment for insurance. He doesn’t care about any patients!!! He’d rather take your money and watch you suffer!!! Also doing this to a pregnant patient says even more what a horrible dr and person he is!!

I've had the displeasure of being a patient for over a year now. Unfortunately, I am "stuck" seeing this doctor because he is one of the only network providers in the area. He doesn't take the time to truly listen to his patients & will write any quick prescription to rush you out of the office. He also glazes past any significant medical history. The receptionists, billing "department," and manager (and I use that term incredibly loosely) are even worse. They are crass, unprofessional, lack appropriate knowledge for individuals in the healthcare industry. Every time I leave this office I feel worse than I felt coming in, for an outpatient mental health facility it's despicable how patients are treated. You are treated as a diagnosis not a human being, and the integrity of their patients is often questioned. Additionally, the providers are money hungry! Only cash & checks are accepted, in the digital era it's surprising how behind the times this place is. Everything is completed on… paper so expect to wait forever & a day to have any pertinent requests completed. And forget about a callback from this place, I've waited 4 weeks for ANY type of follow-up in urgent situations. I cannot wait until my insurance company adds quality providers to their fee schedule, this place & the people that work here are all trash!!!! Don't waste your time or money.

He is willing to prescribe whatever you don't need. Will not and does not do any evaluation or medical history check. Doesn't care about patients nor do I even think he went to medical school. He will prescribe highly addictive meds and give refills over and over. Stay away and find a real board certified psych or psychologist who will work closely with your primary and who cares about your well being. Not just their pockets!!!
