My husband is a patient and has been seeing him for quite some time. My husband thinks "He hung the moon" and I am so thankful he helped my husband.

He turned my elderly mom into a morphine addict, despite objections from our family. Now she has serious memory problems. He continues to prescribe another medication that she once overdosed on and it sent her to the ER. That's where they met! As far as I can tell, he's done absolutely nothing for her depression. She is just as miserable and crazy as ever. She has been seeing him for 3 years and she is constantly deteriorating. I wouldn't see this guy if he were the last doctor on Earth. AVOID

Could not get this ****** doctor to call back for two days. Still have not talked to him. He allowed very sick individual to leave the hospital after talking to him for approximately 15 minutes. This patient was previously diagnosed bi-polar, manic depressive, and a few other things. Dr. Raichman diagnosed "NOTHING" and allowed him to leave. (Wonder what he billed the insurance.) I will be filing as many complaints as I can with the Texas Psychiatric Board. Hope he loses his license.

I wish Dr. Raichman could be my psychiatrist but he is not accepting new patients. He is the On-call doctor for my doctor. He promptly returns my calls and seems so very concerned.
