Patient Reviews
I am not at all happy with Liberty Resources. They have been stringing me along for many months, and I’ve been on mental health wait lists for a very long time and STILL can’t get into medication management. STILL. Liberty is well aware of my mental health issues that including PTSD and they know I have a host of physical problems that are difficult to contend with.
All they have allowed me to have thus far is counseling even though I am worried sick about my physical health, that of my emotional support cat, a death in the family etc etc. I’ve had many ambulance calls to my home because my panic attacks are getting out of control. Those ambulance calls could have been time better spent with other patients who had more serious issues than mine, like heart issues, respiratory etc.
The primary care side is very bad too. I saw my new pcp for the first time last September and it took many months to get the script for bloodwork that she wanted me to have. It took MONTHS to get paperwork that certifies some of my medical expenses as necessary for my HUD recertification. MONTHS.
Liberty is well aware of my struggles with health anxiety and I had an ekg during my first visit with my new pcp and was told it was abnormal. They know I am worried sick about that issue, and my hernia, etc and STILL won’t let me have medication that will help manage these panic attacks. They prescribed two meds that did nothing for me at all, one of which was contraindicated due to my having asthma (propranolol) and hydroxyzine actually made my panic attacks worse.
If an ER doctor at Oswego Hospital was willing to prescribe Xanax, there is no reason why Liberty Resources cannot do likewise. I don’t want a high dose, just enough to help get my panic attacks under control.
