Dr. Carmel C Shaw-Nieves, MD

I was seeing her for anxiety and depression. Horrible physician. Should not be working living people. Clinician clearly approaches patients with bias. Clinician lacks focus. She asked me what medication I was on so I began to recite a list. She then interrupted and corrected me saying that she had asked specifically what anti-depressants I was on. That was an absolute fallacy. I heard her question the first time and tried to answer it. She became agitated because I did not know what medication I had taken that was an anti-depressant. I told her I had no idea what med was an anti-depressant and what wasn't. I told her I could just recite the meds I remembered and she could identify which were anti-depressants. How am I supposed to know what medication serves what purpose? Does everyone know the exact purpose of every medication they've ever taken? I don't think so. So she documents that I didn't answer her questions. She then labels me with a diagnosis that really requires more than… one session, certainly a deeper familiarity and understanding of my past medical history and certainly additional testing. It's fine. She's earned herself a complaint against her with the state board, my insurance company and the hospital she practices at. I was a clinician for 15 years. This woman is a lawsuit waiting to happen. Don't trust her. Ohio is a one party consent state so use that. RECORD ANY COMMUNICATION WITH HER. YOU WILL NEED IT

I was having a serious mental break down, so I decided to go see her. She showed no compassion what so ever, walked out with in four minutes with her, she needs to have her license removed! She is only hurting people who really need help. She's only interested in bottom line period!

Cut me off my meds and told me that facility (as if she speaks for the whole place) can't help someone who has as many problems as I do. Called me a junkie because I had pain meds prescribed FIVE TYLENOL #3'S and then diagnosed me as depressive with OCD yet gives me medicine for Schizophrenia.

She don't care about the paitents she just fed me Xanax until they quit working then threw me to the dogs very unprofessional just in it for the money I guess people will commit suicide with her ways

WARNING stay away from her she has no business being in this medical field if you tell her your suicidal and need a change in medicine or any help she says there is nothing she can do go find a new Doctor and she don't believe mental symptoms are real!!!!

Only accepts cash and unprofessional

I agree with the other review on here about the dr being egotistical and over-medicating. She made me feel uncomfortable because she was too pushy about her own opinions being right.
