Dr. Gary Dean Weichbrodt, MD

Dr. Weichbrodt is the only doctor that has actually taken the time to listen to me. I have been living a more stable happier life since I started treatment with him.

Very rude people, especially the people who answer the phones. One of the ladies was very disrespectful to my mom and then got the office manager to chew her out and make her cry her eyes out. They never make it about the patients. You’re left feeling like no one cares about your well being. When you tell him how you feel he talks around it.

My husband, in his late 70s, suffers from drop and severe anxiety. Recently, Dr. Weichbrodt recommended that my husband discontinue one of his meds, but did not provide written instructions, and when my husband started experiencing withdrawal symptoms of flu like chills, malaise and depression, we call his office to see him. An appointment was set for the same day at 4:30. At 4:05, we received a call that Dr. wanted to speak with him before the appointment. We never received a call that day & now, a week later, still haven’t heard from him. This is the 2nd time in as many months. No more. Going to Emory! If Dr. Weichbrodt doesn’t want to be bothered with patients, then get out of practice!!! First do no harm!!

My son was admitted to Ridgeview Institute where he was randomly assigned Dr. Weichbrodt. During his 9 day stay, I only spoke to Dr. Wechbrodt once. He wanted to put my son on medication, surprise surprise... I asked for more information thinking that i would get some studies confirming the efficacy of using this particular drug in adolescents. Instead (and 4 days later) I received a printout from Drugs.com. LIke he went to drugs.com, typed in the antidepressant and clicked print. Any questions I had, I was told I had to talk to the nurse (they wouldn't give me the number for Dr. Weichbrodt) and "someone would call me". No one ever did. No follow up, nothing. And NOW I've got a hefty bill from this guy for what? Taking a 30 second look at my kid where I wasn't even present and not calling me with any actual information?

Kind, thoughtful, interested, problem solver

I'm writing this review for myself and another person who uses this same doctor. My own needs have been fairly minor but the other person has a serious psychiatric condition that had been treated by other doctors for several years without much success. Dr. Weichbrodt gradually changed the medication regimen to a completely different mix of meds, with excellent results. That patient has remained stable on Dr. Weichbrodt's prescribed medications for several years. Forewarning: The office appointments frequently get behind schedule, so plan on waiting awhile for your name to be called. Dr. Weichbrodt is sometimes called away to an emergency at Ridgeview, so patients in his office have to wait for him to return. Our opinion is: the wait is worth it, so be patient.

He was unwilling to listen to what I was saying about the inaccuracy of medication that was previously prescribed and the fact that my pharmacy incorrectly filled my medication with half the dosage, and instead of helping me told me I needed to find another doctor. Terrible, and consistent with the feedback from others that have seen him.

I will always credit Dr Weichbrodt for making me want to really live again.

Overall a very bias and small minded individual. Made hateful comments in sessions, and prescribed medicine for a disorder that was not present nor had ever been present.
