Dr. John Andrew Fabian, MD

To me is the best Dr. in this area After trying many doctors finally I now fain the best Dr

I would not refer anyone to this Dr. He doesn't listen to anything you say. All he wants to do is give you pills.

He has been my doctor for years, he truly cares about his patients.

Dr. Fabian has not listened to concerns I have had. He wrote me a prescription for a highly addictive sedative benzodiazepine drug, klonipin. This was about 7 years ago before these types of drugs were used regularly as a "street drug!" I am educated but NOT in pharmacology/family medicine, so I had no idea how dangerous these pills can be.He gave me ABSOLUTELY NO education on the addictiveness of these pills. I needed something for SEVERE generalized anxiety disorder with almost nightly panic attacks. I felt as though I was going crazy.I took the klonipin as prescribed them PRN and ,some times I'd go days without taking them, because i think just having them in my system calmed me down greatly. Dr.Fabian repeatedly wrote me scripts month after months without follow up to see him. This went on for about 2 years.I eventually became addicted to the medication after 3 years of habitual use. This included one instance when he erroneously wrote me a scripot for 6 mg when it was suppose to… be up to 3 mgs. prn!I did not notice the mistake until I was at my pharmacy, and my addicted mind thought, "GREAT! What a score!" As my addiction grew stronger, I would run out of pills sooner. Finally, he realized that there was a problem, and I was already in full on addiction.He,of course no longer wanted to write RX's early as he had done numerous times in the past.He also gave me NO plan to try to titrate the medication or get off the meds in any fashion.He would tell me to "walk around the block"if I called him in a panic, to apparently decrease my anxiety!? This was, of course appalling and ridiculous to me. When I finally, directly discussed with him about my addiction and questioned why he did not educate me on the dangers of such meds, when he started me on the benzo,he immediately became IRATE and defensive, and at one point stated that I was just talking to him to try to get my "next fix." I wanted to cry at that moment,not only because I felt lost, but because he treated me with no compassion and was out right mean. I hope that anyone reading this understands that I take responsibility for my addiction problem, and eventually put myself thru a 21 day rehab program, to take back my physical and mental power which the klonopin had taken from me. Excited to complete this 21 day program, I told him about my success, and he had little to no reaction. I would also like to clarify that, until I was given klonopin , I had NEVER had any addiction other than smoking cigarettes, @ 28 years old, I felt and was treated like a junkie, by a lot of ppl, including my own PMD, who, I feel was at least 1/4 responsible, as had given me no knowledge about the meds he administered so nonchalantly. He still does not acknowledge any wrong doing by not educating me on this powerful and possibly deadly drug. And, I might forgive him for that, if he then didn't subsequently act angry with me.Dr. Fabian seems to do well with folks that just take him at his word and don't question every move he makes. I should've known better, and relearned that lesson, the HARD way. Ask Dr.Fabian everything and anything that you feel important about your care, and if he tries to not answer by "playing deaf" (which he has done to me a lot)or he becomes defensive, I would say RUN!

excellent in all aspectsSome ideas to get you started:-Write about overall experiences-Write about what you like or dislike about your physician-Write about whether you would recommend-Write as if you are talking to a peer who is asking your opinion

Very careing and understanding, i rate him in the top ten in WNY .
