Was prescribed an antidepressant by dr cornelius. I responded well and was doing well , but after two months he told me I needed voluntarily commit myself, despite the fact I had harmed noone not even myself and had no thoughts of such. I was simply seeking treatment for a mild case of anxiety disorder and he made me quit antidepressant treatment, or commit myself. I chose dropping antidepressants cold turkey so I could keep my job, home, and social standing. I have to tell you however coming off of antidepressants is a rough ride. Shame on you Dr. Cornelius

I am not a number in this office. He knows me. He listens. He is my Doctor, not God. He understands my concerns.

There is a sign in the exam room that says you are limited to one issue to discuss with the doctor. If you need more time, make another appointment. If you have urgent needs go to the ER. Calls will not be accepted. Very impersonal. . Left the room the take a phone call in the middle of an exam. Severe lack of GP's in this area.

If you are looking for Marcus Welby, you will be disappointed with Dr. Cornelius' bedside manner. However, if you need a highly capable family practitioner who is on top of recent developments in medicine and connected with the best specialists in town, I recommend Dr. Cornelius. He's thorough, efficient, and always takes time to answer my questions (and polite enough to address even the dumb ones seriously).

Dr. Cornelius is rude and arrogant. I am glad that I had the opportunioty to meet with him before I had my exam. Withdrew my whole family from his practice.

Found this doctor to be very arrogant. Difficult to discuss anything; office atmosphere strained and cold. Doctor is rather petty; if you miss an appointment he will never see you again.
