Dr. Amy Meidinger, PHD

I am a stage 4 cancer patient. I had to cancel my daughter appointment twice due to my own health issues. I was told they lost to much billable time due to cancelations and their policy was to deny services after twice.

Referred by my PCP. At time of scheduling I filled out several pages of forms which I assumed would be reviewed prior to my appt as it covered my history extensively. At my appt I learned Dr. Meidinger had not reviewed anything in the numerous forms I was required to fill out prior to the appt. While I understand reviewing and confirming information with the patient, the appt should not be the first time you're viewing it. After stating why I had scheduled the appt I was asked about my grades. With this I was told having good grades likely excludes ADHD, and I was a very anxious person. After this statement it was made clear discussing my symptoms and concerns was not a priority. I explained my symptoms and asked for advice. I was again told I seemed to be just an anxious person, but I could pay $4k+ if I wanted to get testing done. After just 15 minutes I left in tears. What's worse, this was out-of-network, and after finding a better fit elsewhere it turns out I do in fact have ADHD.

Rude and condescending. Felt like I was walking on eggshells when I saw her. She made the statement in her report that we visited too many counselors showing her ignorance concerning Reactive Attachment Disorder. A court of law used her statement against us. She knows NOTHING about children and attachment disorders of adopted children.
