Dr. Arnold Kaplin, MD

I saw him for group therapy for about 20 years. I was clinically depressed but the therapy was helpful. After I was well enough to leave group and began seeing him just for medchecks, he overcharged for a 5 minute interview, and charged for an appointment I missed due to having ice all over my car making it undriveable, even though I had called to explain. "Never mind, come next Monday," he said. I got billed for both appointments. Thereafter when I called the pharmacy for a med refill, I was told he had cancelled the prescription [without telling me of course]. As he aged he became more greedy for money and more vindictive toward patients. I would not recommend him to anyone now.

I made an appointment with Dr. Kaplan. Upfront he told me the first session would be $300. At the end of the session, he did not address my RX needs in the way I thought he should. Additionally, he told me that if I ever had to cancel a session, I would be charged $150, if he could not fill the spot. The cancellation was not a 24-48 hour window. It was any given time...1 month before, two weeks before, etc.

Uses his credentials to emotionally abuse vulnerable patients. Condescending, overpriced and his methods are outdated. Needs to retire.

He has a standard way of looking at things ... and doesn’t listen that well ...he recommended a drug to me that turned me into a walking zombie without giving any heads up to it..
