Dr. Craig Rogers, MD

DO NOT get ECT with Dr. Craig Rogers. He has no bedside manner and asks the patients what he wants for their treatment instead of guiding them. I started feeling better after about 3 treatments and he asked if I wanted more treatments. I said will that make me feel better is that what I should do? He said yes. So they kept giving me treatments. I think 12 or 15. After the treatments I became manic. Full blown mania without sleeping for a couple months and yelling at my family. I never had mania before but he was aware the my uncle was biplolar. I texted him telling that I noticed I was having manic symptoms based on what I found on google and he denied it. Finally after a few times of reaching out he admitted that I was right. Also I found on google that if you combine ECT with the medication I was taking cause mania. He should know which medications can cause mania this is his specialty!

I am very pleased with Dr. Rogers treatment of severe depression I was going through. I am feeling well now and am grateful of the work he did for me. M. Katz

He is judgemental and rude to a DANGEROUS degree. Rogers completely refused to treat my son who sought out ECT. My son struggled with substance abuse last year, but successfully completed rehab and continues to work with a psychiatrist who specializes in addiction. This psychiatrist emphatically suggested ECT because my son is proving to be medication resistant. As a result of the aforementioned self-medication, my son was placed on probation last year. He is nearing one year as a probationer without a single violation. Also, more than one PO agreed that ECT would be a good course of action especially because we are running out of possible treatments. We are attempting to get the help he desperately needs, but Rogers turned us away because of all of the above. We weren't even able to explain a lot of this to Rogers because he oh so quickly shamed my son and said "no." This is how kids overdose. We are trying to seek out treatment and proper care and are being turned away.
