I went to go see Dr. Kimberly Thompson for an evaluation and I felt very dismissed by her. I felt rushed and like I wasnt being listened to. I only spoke with her for less than 5 minutes and she had already made up her mind about not diagnosing me. I spoke with her assistant or something for about 10 minutes prior to her entering the room. So about 15 minutes (if that) total speaking with them. I think she had other patients to see since my appointment was at 10:15 AM and they didnt see me until after 11 AM. The appointment with my insurance was a $50 copay and I also had to pay for parking which was $5. It is super confusing to get into the building too as you have to go through one elevator to get to the lobby and then get into another one for the actual hospital building. Theres no signage outside the elevators letting you know that you are going the correct way. They also keep their window shut so you have to wait for when the receptionist opens it to get up and go talk to her. Since they have a do not knock on window sign at the front desk. Waited for about 5-10 minutes before I actually got greeted by the front desk.

Ive been a patient of Live Oak Counseling for some time. Seeing Dr. Fenton over the years has changed my life in so many positive ways. His experience and knowledge has served me well and has enlightened me to learn a lot about myself. His office staff are well trained in their positions with patient care / service being at their core. Having referred new patients to Dr. Fenton in the past, I would do so again. Appointment availability for him can be challenging as he is booked out however, there are times when appointment slots open up and you can get in sooner. His practice also employs other doctors and counselors if youre unable to wait for an appointment with him. Being on the go all the time, I really appreciate the text message appointment reminders, Ive found them helpful for me. Do yourself a favor and schedule an appointment with him.

I have been very disappointed as a new patient of Dr. Fenton I was supposed to get a prescription for an anti-depressant sent to my pharmacy, but they have yet to receive it. My appointment with him was on Tuesday. It is now Friday. I have called his office several times including this morning and was told that they werent sure what the problem was, but that they would relay a message to him that the prescription had not been received. As of this afternoon, my pharmacy has yet to receive the prescription and his office is closed. I left a very strong message with his office, and I will be looking for another psychiatrist. I could not in good conscience recommend this doctor to anyone looking for serious help.
