Dr. Omar Elhaj, MD

He might be the worst doctor I have ever had the displeasure of visiting. Rude, condescending, and arrogant. Avoid this guy like the plague.

This "doctor" is rude and egotistical, he will tell you he encourages questions- but will give you vague answers and re-direct the conversation before rushing you out... (because he was running late.) I'd recommend a listening workshop, cultural, and gender sensitivity training. Additionally if you are a peer of his expect him to dismiss your expertise and credibility to his patients. He is a disgrace to "professionals" in his field, and would not recommend that anyone to be associated with him or waste their time hoping to be heard as a patient.

This guy does the exact opposite of supporting or healing your mental/emotional health. In fact, I believe his agenda/goal is to make your situation even WORSE! This "doctor" does not listen to YOU or your mental health concerns. He reads over notes provided by your primary care phydicians & an assessment provided by the person who takes your vitals when you arrive. He seems to want to play frankenstien with your meds. He shows no empathy pertaining to your concerns regarding potential side effects of new meds. Documents exagerrations and ridiculous (unhelpful/unnecessary) statements in your chart. And on top of it all, he doesn't even see you in person! The visit is done in an office room via skype! I traveled 20 miles to the next town over & back for a "telepsych" visit. But hey, he's still collecting a paycheck so who cares about patients' mental health, right? ???????????? Do yourself a favor and stay away from this guy. Save yourself the money, time, gas, AND mental health!

Horrible psychiatrist! He misdiagnosed me and out me on heavy hitting medications I did not need. It took 2 years for my body to get back to where I started. I was encouraged by my physician to file a complaint with the Ohio medical board. He doesn't listen and is super arrogant. Please, stay away from this man!

Terrible psychiatrist. He misdiagnosed me and turned me into a zombie. I lost a year of my life because of him. PLEASE steer clear of him!

He will destroy you.

He would never explain why he was making medication decisions and what I should expect. One time we dialed back a dosage and I started freaking out and going insane. I thought I was done for and that was what life would be like. Fortunately I did some of my own research and found it was just intense withdrawl symptoms some people get and would pass soon! There was no "Hey, so you're going down on this med and some people experience withdrawal like xxxx. So if you do, don't worry, it will pass and you'll make it through it."

This doctor totally threw me into a ptsd episode during my one and only appointment with him. He questioned another doctors medication that was prescribed for me by telling me he was a mandated reporter ans picked up His phone threatening to call the police on me and my doctor. I ran out of the office in a confused and dangerous state of mind. I drove away as fast as I could as I believed the olive were going to come look for me. I lucky I didn't get into an accident while fleeing his abuse. Stay far far away.

Felt very at home and at ease. Being the first time to a doctor of hiding practice.

He was the worst doctor I have ever been to!!! I was going through a rough time in my life emotionally. He didn't want to talk about that AT ALL! Even when I told him I had been diagnosed with PTSD, he said "who told you that!" Mind you, I have been through counseling and family therapy, but he made me feel like I was making it up and asked where the proof was. At my first visit he took me off all of medication that I had been on for a few years (only 2 prescriptions) and gave me 3 different prescriptions to take. He never suggested that I seek counseling! After 2 weeks I followed up with him and he switched my medication AGAIN! I have never in my life felt so humiliated and used like a lab rat for medications! The medication had me feeling like I was going crazy.....it was horrible! Before seeing him, I started out on 2 medications & going to therapy. By hitting another low I ending up in this man's hands that made it 100 times worse!!???!!! I Googled the medications and… the one is commonly used drug to slip into people's drinks. I refused to EVER see that man or that practice ever again. It was the worst experience I have ever had with any health professional. Please do your research before going to any doctor, psychiatrist or therapist. Just because they have the title does NOT mean they are good at their job!
