Care Philosophy
This content was provided by Dr. McClure "Although medications can be an important part of treatment, my treatment philosophy emphasizes a deeper understanding of the whole person, which is based in my psychoanalytically oriented psychotherapy training. Therefore, my diagnostic intake sessions are lengthy, and every so-called "medication management" followup presents an opportunity to enhance our understanding of your complete life situation. People respond much better to treatment when they feel truly understood as a person, rather than as a "diagnostic entity". Of course, this requires extra time and attention to detail...which means that I am not a participating provider for any insurance company. My billing clerk will bill your insurance for you, but you will be expected to pay for each session in full at the time of service. PPO plans will usually send you a check to cover part of the fee, but an HMO(like Kaiser), Medicaid or Medicare will not."

Not helpful at all and was quick to drop me as a patient when I was desperately seeking his help. I felt comfortable with him, but realized very quickly that it was all about the money. So disappointing to have a doctor in this field be so distant and aloof to helping vulnerable patients.

While I don't doubt Dr McClures abilities in Psychotherapy, his office sent me to collections after 90 days for a bill I never received. The amount was settled promptly with the collections agency however I now have a negative scar in my credit report for a ridiculously low amount.

Dr. MClure is compassionate and understanding. With his excellent knowledge of the pharmaceutical side of treatment, he was able to get me stabilized quickly. With regular visits, Dr. McClure was able to help me maintain my health for the past 3 years. I am leaving the state and will miss him...Read More
