Cordelia Nieketien-Tawari, NP

I haven't seen her in over a year. I'm just now capable of writing this review. Within 5 minutes of my visit she told me my previous diagnosis were false, and made up. She told me they were in my head, and I didn't have those disorders. At first I was relieved, then I quickly realized she was wrong. She comes across very strong and opinionated. I felt like a child being scolded by my mother. She asked my profession, I said I'm a paralegal, then then quickly asked "why aren't you an attorney?" ....uhh ma'am, that's not why I'm here, stick to the issue at hand please. She prescribed me a med that I'm allergic to and I quickly broke out into hives all over which is extremely dangerous. I tried calling her after the rash broke out and I couldn't get in contact with her. I haven't been back since.

I've never been treated so rudely by a doctor! I inquired about setting an appointment, and the person who answered the phone told me about her strange hours, which raised a red flag, but I went along with it because I really needed to see someone. After I sent all the info they requested (health insurance card first and foremost, of course), including the list of medications I'm on, she finally called back and abruptly told me she couldn't take me as a client because I had been "misdiagnosed." Um, OK, interesting that a doctor is telling me I've been misdiagnosed before we've even exchanged a single word and she hasn't had access to my medical charts. She was weirdly rude and arrogant the entire time. What a waste of time and energy when I really needed help!

I wouldn't send my worst enemy here. She is beyond unprofessional. She doesn't care what you are seeing her for. She acts like your appointment is a burden. She rushes you out the door without a prescription or anything helpful and tells you to make another appointment to actually receive treatment. Luckily I never went back. When I told the receptionist at my new psychiatrist about my experience she let me know "your not the first person who has told me about her".

She "diagnosed" me after asking 4 questions and came across as a complete quack. You get what you pay for. I asked for confirmation and she pulled a test off google instead of from the DSM. Save yourself the time and money and find a true doctor.

I was so highly disappointed by this "professional!" She was rude and spoke over me, I felt as if she judged me and was uncaring! She didn't care about my thoughts or feelings buy only her own diagnosis in which she has been right "100% of the time!" I would never recommend this person to someone suffering from ANY mental illness!
