Patient Reviews
Mar 12, 2021
Awful!!! As my "pillars of the community" parents were torturing me for failing to get only A's & B's on report cards, Dr.Sand$s was the 4th mental health professional they sent me to for "my problems." He was supposed to prioritize my well being first & foremost, instead, he readily embraced bald faced lies about me. Mommie & Daddy Dearest went to a parent teacher conference when I was 13, & life changed,forever. I was being f'd with at school, & for the first time, I was unable to meet my parents standards. They responded by raging at me "we wish you had never been born" as they ripped the sheets off of my beds, as they spat at & hit me, as they screamed I was "shame of the family," every morning, before I went to school. It only escalated thereafter, daily, for years. They called up my entire family & inverted my entire identity, smearing me as a "out of control trouble child, sociopathic drug addict who was failng at school." The only truth was my academic decline.
