Dr. Arnold Mech, MD

The best

I heard about Dr. Mech through a high school friend that I recently reconnected with. I called and set my first appointment up with Dr. Mech about 10 months ago and I'm so happy I did. My quality of life has improved drastically. Dr. Mech listened to my concerns and addressed all issues with respect and care. If you are looking for a doctor that will listen and help look no further.

These negative reviews blow my mind. I think that anybody who is not giving this team a five star review is not taking into account how difficult it is to run a small business, particularly in the medical field, while still being there for your patients. Dr. Mech and his staff go above and beyond to make sure you feel comfortable and informed every step of the way. Despite his busy schedule, he spends as much time as he can making patients feel like they’re being heard and given the best care available. I’d recommend him to anyone.

Does not return calls!! Staff is rude!!

Dr. Mech takes the time to understand your medical and psychological needs and is very knowledgeable! He really cares for your wellbeing and overall health!

I called in and made an appointment with the receptionist. She sent me the new patient package and I spent 2 days filling this packet out. It opened up some emotions that I have not addressed. After sending it in I was excited to meet my new doctor. My appointment was at 11am. When 11:15 am came I called the office only to be lied to. I was told that the doctor was working on something for another patient and he will call me shortly. I had to log into work at 12pm and I knew this appointment was going to be an hour or so. So that raised my anxiety. I had to call into work and tell them I was going to be late. He never called. I’ve called his office multiple times after that. No answer. Then that had me worried that he didn’t like my answers to the packet he sent me. And that messed with my self esteem. Why send the packet if u have no intentions of see the patient. This company is not good for my mental health. They need to get it together.

Dr. Mech is wonderful, BUT it is absolutely unacceptable how hard it is to get ahold of them. I need a form signed and have left 5 messages and 2 emails over the past 8 days and no one will call me back. I've been a patient for months, and no one has EVER ONCE picked up the phone. You have to leave multiple messages for days before they'll call you back. If you miss the call back, it'll be days and days to ever get ahold of them again. It makes the office completely unusable. The lady who answers the phones is very nice, but you'll need to make it your full-time job to try to get ahold of her, unfortunately. I am having to leave the office, because it's just not sustainable to chase them for weeks to book a standard appointment. :(

Disappointed. I spoke with a man named, Jeff on the phone initially who communicated well with me over the phone. However, he let me know he would email me a few documents before my appointment on Friday, then he asked me to email him, so I did. I never got a return email with the documents. Then Jennifer from the office called, and asked what time I would like to schedule my appointment. Jeff had already scheduled my appointment so that showed a lack of communication. Jennifer also let me know she would be sending me a medical history and new patient paperwork via email. I never received this. Now, this morning, the morning of my appointment, I noticed I have 3 missed calls from the office. My appointment is not for a few more hours and the voicemails are asking me to check in for my appointment, or letting me know i need to reschedule. TMS is expensive and time consuming. It's disappointing the staff isn't more organized. I will be looking for a different office.

If you actually get to see him his bedside manner and compassion are unmatched, the problem is actually getting in contact with the office. Sadly, I had to find a new dr because of it.

In the past He has been great and actually listens (and remembers) to details if patient’s needs. Suggestions of alterations when he feels it needed in the best interest of the patient. I feel He gets a bad rep because they do have an understaffing problem. Im trying to get through again myself. So it Makes him more like finding extremely hard to find gold on the positive side... hard to get ahold of while he rebuilds for his patients, so when u get ahold of the gold u will be grateful. He should get good reviews for continued trying to rebuild when life may be handing him challenges... he hasnt quit on people! So, great review for him and bad review for things he may not be able to control. Ill hear from him soon i hope.

everything was good for the past 5 months its been crazy getting my scripts and trying to see him. i have spoke to my casewroker and UHC to get me a new doctor but having issues getting my medical records. I will be seeking an attorney and see my options

I have left several messages and no return call or email returned. Three time, we have gone to his actual office and signs were posted that he did not pay and forced out. Super poor follow-up. I need my medicine refilled and can not. Three different offices we went to and three times, no actually In his office.

Getting refills was difficult every month. Now the doc is MIA and I’ve been without meds for 2 weeks.

I have being seeing Dr Mech for the last 6 yrs for my ADHD. He has moved offices at least 5 times due to lack of payment. He has cut staff back continuously throughout the years. Refills were like pulling teeth to get refilled. The final straw was two months ago, when he moved offices again and cut all of his staff, keeping only a receptionist. I have been out of medication now for over a month and currently looking for a new Dr. Do not use this Dr. All that you will get is a recording.

The office is left unstaffed too much! You should always be able to call a doctors office and reach someone or at least get a call back. Completely unacceptable! Three weeks and I can’t reach anyone to simply get an appointment!! What kind of joke practice is this?

How incredibly rude. My husband set up three different appointments with this office only to find out that their office is closed, evicted or locked out due to non-payment of rent. No indication from the staff that this was an issue and no care to call any patients who have set up appointments for the days following. Absolutely WORST experience.

not recommended

Haven’t been able to reach office or leave a voice mail in almost 3 wks. Finally got in to see another dr. I’m really sorry for what patients must be going though not having their meds and constantly calling and obsessing about what they’re going to do if they don’t get their meds. Part of me also feels bad for Dr Mech something awful must have happened for him to let things get to this point. His practice was once a huge thriving well-respected entity. He was wrote up in esteemed Med journals.

Saw Dr Mech for ongoing treatment of mild depression and prescription maintenance. Only saw the Dr. on the first appointment and from there on out it was PAs who read my file during the appointment . Last refill visit resulted in approximately $4000 in lab fees. Don't recommend and will not return.

A VERY GREAT DOCTOR
