Dr. Jagmeet Kaur Chann, MD

I had a wonderful psychiatrist who no longer accepts my insurance, thus I had to find another. ?? Dr Chaan seems nice and well meaning, however I think she may want to be upfront about her personal beliefs. If you share her views and are looking for a psychiatrist who might tell you not to have anxiety because your powerless over gods will... Or that gratitude and happy thoughts can help protect you from a stressor, this is the place to you. My personal opinion is that those type of energy healing ideologies are fine, they’re just definitely not for me & I wish I would have known

I have seen Jagmeet 4 times. First as an advocate to help me further a regimen that was prescribed to me by my previous psychiatrist as I’d switched insurance. Eventually my symptoms worsened and I needed additional support. She increased my medication which introduced more issues and then cancelled my follow up appointment in which I was going to request going back down and ask for a therapist/program recommendation for further help. While in limbo trying to get a rescheduled appointment, I was sexually assaulted. When I finally got back in to see her TEO HOURS after my scheduled appointment and talked to her about this, she told me that it was my fault because I had two drinks the evening of the event. She tried to send me to 90days of AA and out patient rehab because 5 years ago I I had a substance abuse problem, and then tried to prescribe me two additional medications. One of which I told her I took in the past and suffered very negative side affects with. Not only did she, as a… medical professional, but also a woman try to accuse a victim of being responsible for their traumatic experience but also severely set me back in my course for self help. This was the most disgusting experience I have ever had. I hope no one will ever have an encounter with this person, especially not someone who is vulnerable and in search of help.

She refuses to listen to patients that have SSRI discontinuation or detox problems. She is bought and paid for by the pharmaceutical companies. She refuses to acknowledge that anyone could possibly have serious problems stopping an anti-depressant drug. She prescribes these mental health SSRI drugs and will keep a patient on them for years while ignoring that the patient may be having side effects that are life destroying. STAY AWAY FROM THIS STUBBORN SO CALLED DOCTOR THAT IS NOTHING MORE THAN A BIG PHARMA LIAR. I BELIEVE HER GOAL IS TO IGNORE SIDE EFFECTS AND SHUT HER PATIENTS UP BY IGNORING THEIR COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE DRUGS SHE PRESCRIBES. SHE WILL PUT A PATIENT INTO A CHEMICAL LOBOTOMY WITH EASE AND NOT CARE. SHE INFORMS HERSELF ONLY ENOUGH TO TAKE MONEY AND KEEP COMPLAINERS AWAY WHILE SHE SETS UP HER RETIREMENT ON THE BACKS OF HER SICK PATIENTS. I write this with education and deep empathy for any person that seeks help from this awful person.

I have been a patient of Dr. Chann's for over a decade. She is warm and caring. I look forward to my meetings with her. The medicine she has prescribed for me has really helped. I will continue to be under her care for another decade, Lord willing!

She ruined my life with powerful medication. Caused permanent brain damage. Destroyed my ability to sleep

My experience with Dr. Chann was terrible. In fact I actually became much worse while under her care. Unlike, many reviews that I have read where she would only spend 10 min with her patients, she would keep me in her office for an hour! She did bizarre things like accept phone calls on her cell phone while in session with me. She did this constantly. Her staff would knock on the door and interrupt us. After answering her cell phone she would leave me sitting in her office for 15 min while she chatted on the phone! And of course waiting sometimes up to two hours in the waitingroom. She misdiagnosed me. Tried to give me all sorts of meds, which I mostly just flat out refused to take. After being under her care for just a few months I lost a massive amount of weight, my stress level was the highest it has ever been. Finally, I was so bad that my family members were begging me to get a new doctor and so I did. It took me about a year to get off the meds she prescribed and I… have been medication free for the past 2 years and doing well. She seems to think that she is enlightened, but what she did to me in my opinion, was psychologically abusive. Getting up in the middle of a session and walking out to take personal phone calls, I mean really what was that about. I had a friend who went to her for several years and she said that she never experienced this during any of her appointments. This "doctor" clearly suffers from her own issues. My recommendation would be not to trust her.

bedside manner could be better at times, wait times in the office are the worst i have seen of any physician in all my 31 years, & she spent no more than 10 minutes per visit with me when i was her patient. went to her for years. from the time i was 18 up until my mid 20's. misdiagnosed me as bipolar. prescribed heavy medications that made me more ill than they actually helped. i found out while i did have anxiety, depression, & ptsd - almost ALL of my symptoms could be traced back to the potent medications prescribed for me. withdrawl was a nightmare, but once all the drugs were out of my system i felt almost instantaneously better. little anxiety issues still present that i can manage more holistically without any medications, but the deep depression & any other mood issues i incurred were all due to the heavy ssri's & benzodiazepines - paxil in particular. that stuff was a nightmare & took me over a decade to completely quit. i found a different psychiatrist in my late 20's &… finally felt like i was conversing with someone competent who cared. he was a huge part of getting me where i'm at today - recovered & completely unmedicated. couldn't be better. the only lingering frustration i have is that i doubt i ever needed these meds on any level in the first place. granted i was young, less introspective, & basically took anything a doctor told me as "gold" at the time. i was very trusting. it was my fault on many levels too because i was very young & inexperienced at life & it takes two (dr & patient) to find an accurate diagnosis & then a competent doctor to properly treat it. my problem turned out to be more the environment i was raised in & living in causing my issues than it was that my issues were actually who i really am. i wouldn't recommend her. for all the money i spent on appointments in her office real help was not something i ended up with. i was drugged & shuffled right out the door continuously.

This doc is awful!!!!! She overmedicated me so badly I almost lost my job. She is mean and won't let you ask questions. My ex husband wanted me to go to her, who knows why. If I had an emotional time(going through divorce) and tried to talk about it she would say "What do you expect me to do about it?'. I did'nt know if I was coming or going I was a zoombie. Finally, wen se asked to ear the voice I left my then husband without asking meif it was ok, I left and went back to my old doctor. On my first visit back to my old doctor, showed him the meds she wanted me to take. He was absoluly shocked and took me off all but one. It took awhile for the drugs to get out of my system. Also she violated the hipa rights. During my divorce my ex-husband try many way to character smear me, which in California its no fault so there was no reason to attempt it. He presented my medical records that the only way he could of gotten it was from Dr, Chann. DO NOT GO TO THIS PERSON!

Horrible! They need a better office manager and need to upgrade!!!
