Pham actually had the nerve to lie to my insurance company that I was capable of working yet Ive been disabled for 12 years now. While in the psychiatric ward I was harassed by the staff and made out to be a villain because of what they read in the police report. They based me as a whole from that. When I tried to defend myself and voiced my disgust at the treatment they threw me in the padded room with an ass full of booty juice. They refused to give me medication when i needed it which is life threatening to me. Its why I become suicidal, and came there but instead they try to hurt me. The next day they pulled me out a deep sleep to access and discard me. But before that I had told Dr Pham my utter disgust with the way they were treating me. I had some very strong words for Dr Gee as well as Pham so he took it upon himself to lie to my Disability Insurance provider because he didnt like me telling it like it was, FUCK YOU PHAM!!!!

It’s a shame this man practices psychiatry. He lied about me not taking my pills, showed up at my house for a surprise recertification visit and gave me one option for a first generation antiphycodic after pulling me from my dream job making me depressed and the only reason he picked me up in the first place was because my father and him are in cahoots so we were in an argument about that. It’s been a nightmare dealing with this man because he’s takin every right he possibly could from me and expects me to do everything positive for him. Also his notes were complet lies.

Called his office for help with a prescription issue. He wrote the prescription and yet he said because he’s not my family doctor he can’t help me so now I can’t get my prescription filled.

My good friend commited suicide while under Dr Pham’s care. Dr Pham was informed of his death, but not the cause of death until weeks later when his family reached out to inform him. That’s pathetic. My lifelong friend took his own life under this doctor’s care because he convinced him that the medications would eventually kick in and things would get better. Pathetic.

I just read James review.Thank you James. My girlfriend just took an overdose while being under Dr. Phams care for a lot of years. Thank God she survived! When in the Psych. ward, a nurse commented that she had never seen a patient taking such a high dose of an anti-depressant! She was also taking 2 different memory blockers, a.sleeping pill, and a up to 4 anxiety pills a day. She is also on meds due to an auto immune disease! She is a lucky one that did survive! I would like to know how many of his patients have committed suicide while under his care???

Dr. Pham is an amazingly empathetic psychiatrist who actually takes the time to truly listen and then provide constructive feedback and provide guidance to help treat your mental health concerns. He also doesn’t overprescribe medications and even helped me get off a high dose of effexor (300mg) which I had taken for almost 15 years with no side effects!!! I had tried previously to quit effexor on two other occasions and failed miserably. Now I am off it completely thanks to him! He is a strong advocate for his patients in the health care system and has gotten me the added care I needed! In my opinion he is the most professional psychiatrist in penticton and I am so thankful he is directing my care.
