April Burgess, APRN

TLDR; AVOID April Burgess and see anybody else besides her if you need true help. I stopped seeing her and it saved my life. I spent over a year with April Burges, constantly gaslighting my issues into not being real. During one appointment, she actually yelled at me at me for trying to collaborate (causing a panic attack mid appointment, she called me to see her again same day and apologised, stating “virtual appointments can be cold”, but this traumatised me). She also admittedly said after 3 months that she thought I was the “typical” case of prescribing a SSRI and being done. Months after this incident of no progress, she accused me of having a personality disorder because I failed 4 different meds (treatment-resistant depression is a thing). She then said she didn’t think they’ll ever be a med to “cure me” which was the final straw since I was in need of help. I started seeing a new psychiatrist and immediately they knew what to do, offered support, and appreciated collaboration. It was night and day difference.

April listens. I feel she really cares about my mental health.

April is a committed, concerned and very component provider. I look forward to my appointments. She is straightforward in a very caring way. She talks to me like a family member and I love that!
