Dr. Wayne Cotton, DO

Unreliable, not organized, he was late to our first meeting and it was cut short, did not read up on my childs chart notes or lookin into the purpose of our visit, and this is only the second time I am supposed to see him and thinking about finding help elsewhere

My son’s medication ran out and had no refills. Dr. Cotton gave us his personal phone number to call him back on just in case. Well we called that number several times and left messages on his personal phone and the clinics. My son never got his refill and has been off his medication for 5 months. We just found out that right around that time Dr. Cotton apparently got in a car accident and resigned two weeks later from the Childrens Clinic in Amsterdam and no one bothered to call us to tell me my son doesn’t have a doctor anymore. Dr. Cotton never bothered to return our calls to even inform us he doesn’t work for them anymore. Now I’m left trying to find my son a doctor ASAP when I should’ve been notified months ago. He is irresponsible and should not be in charge of the mental health of children.

He was professional. He helped me further understand my symptoms and illness. He prescribed the right medicine for the time.

After nearly a decade of trusting this baffoon with my children and myself I realize several things: 1) he has no grasp on proper diagnosis completely missing the autism spectrum diagnosis on three of my four kids and 2) he over medicates often changing 2-4 prescriptions at a time so neither you or he has any chance of knowing what is or isn't working 3) he is unreliable often cancelling appointments last minute leaving you hanging without proper care
