Every experience I had in this office was for the best. Highly recommend his services, as he does not, or at least never did, make my youth feel like it was against me and he never made me feel diminutive. I am a successful member of society and lead a healthy life now. I am almost 30 :).

Doctor Wainer isnt just going to give you tons of different medications or large dosages. When he prescribes something new he usually uses half the recommended dosage just to catch any reactions earlier and less severe as with a full dose. I have been a patient of Dr. Wainer's for several years, and there is no doctor I trust more.

Dr. Wainer was always very knowledgeable, professional, courteous, and kind. He asked good questions and actively listened to the answers and valued my and my family's input concerning medication changes. I have moved out of the area and no longer see him but he was always very accessible and even helped me out with medication refills after I'd stopped seeing him. Great guy, great psychiatrist in my experience!

I donot understand why you have prescribed so many drugs for a normal child. You are wrong to diagnose this child on a mother's statements alone. This mother is sick herself and makes up all kinds of false statements. Look at what you have the poor child on:Abilify,Bupropion,Lithium,synthroid,serequel Divalproex.He is a zombie.His uncle is a psychologist and states he has never seen anything wrong with this child until now that you have him on thses drugs. This child cannot go on the way he is. You are destroying him.
