These are the worst abusers I have seen in my life, and they think they are mental health professionals! While I would sit in a session they would yell at my face, and say strange things that honestly sounded like they were about a different person. One day they said they called my work and found I didn't work there, but that was not true! The same stuff was happening about the diagnosis too! They just said it must be a psychotic disorder because they only do those or mood/major depressive disorders, and I didn't have depression! I'd say no I don't have psychosis and they'd say you must just because you were referred! The truth is I wasn't I just thought I'd check it out. What a mistake! I looked it up online and this was part of Vancouver Coastal? Since when? Maybe they shouldn't sponsor them. And I had the same problem with the medications. They didn't care what they did and just prescribed the same medications for all psychotic disorders very obviously. Never sign up here!

This was the worst experience of my life. Every time I went in I was the only client. Only once or twice over several years did I see someone else there. I would have quit right from the start, but they kept saying they’d call the police if I didn’t come in. Right away they put me on five different medications, and when I got horrible side effects, they didn’t do anything to change the prescriptions. They kept saying nothing could possibly have gone wrong when you could read online there was lots of side effects for all of them, and they had always given the max dose.
This person that was my Doctor, but he may have not been a doctor at all, Sean Nolan, he smelled like cigarettes every time I went in. I swear he wore the exact same outfit every time I saw him. Sometimes there was marks on his hands, like scabs, and this black stuff, like he’d worked outside but not bothered to clean it up. He assured me everything was safe and clean, and he knew what he was doing, but I really doubted it. The truth is I asked him where he was licensed for psychiatry, and he said Mcgill University. But when I asked the man about it, he said he spoke no French. It was curious, because Mcgill is a French-speaking school. The weirdest thing is, researching it online, apparently one is actually accredited as a psychiatrist not at a school, but by studying under another psychiatrist in a clinic. He probably lied he was a doctor. Overall my experience with this clinic was extremely negative, and I’ll never shake off the feeling they had a very negative impact on my life.

This place was definitely some kind of scam. After I lost my wife, I was referred by my friend for grief counselling. But they immediately said I had psychosis and started demanding I take medications for that. I had never heard of anything like it, but they required a daily witness medication, where I had to go to a pharmacy every day to take the medications there. They hadn’t previously known me at all, but claimed they knew I would never take them. There was definitely something wrong because every time I went in, I was the only one there. Sometimes I’d arrive early, like a half hour beforehand, and honestly not one person walked in. There was a bunch of offices, but no meetings in them. There was employees everywhere, just making files look neat, or walking from the files area to the back room, but none of them had a patient.
The truth about it is one day they said they needed to commit me to an inpatient centre to evaluate whether the diagnosis was correct more closely. After like 10 appointments, he says he’s not sure he’s right. In the end, they didn’t give me a choice, even though I told them plainly I’d lose my job if they did this. But they made me go and of course I lost my job.
They were very unprofessional and in terms of the analysis, nothing really added up. I knew something was really wrong when after a year he called me the wrong name. I started legal proceedings but have yet to have been released from the program. It’s really been a disaster.

Who is this “nurse practitioner” Kathy Tod!? Not a doctor yet listed as both “doctors” at This clinic!?… another oddity this Kathy Tod not a doctor is listed as a doctor at Grandview Woodlands clinic on Broadway as well! What a damn scam all these garbage fraudulent idiots truly Are! They ruined my life over a nervous breakdown back in 2012 & are still forcing me under the mental health act all these years claiming I have a mental illness of which I was far past the age of when it comes out in people who actualy have it! Forced meds that killed all the good in me I have made sure that their eternal life is the most horrifying & always worsening ever! Good luck you incompetent wastes of skin!
