"If I could summarize Dr. Buyse's attitude in one word, it would be "cold". I attempted suicide twice under her care. As I was in the hospital having barely regained consciousness from the second attempt, I was informed that she had fired me as a patient. I learned later through my hospital records that she had told hospital personnel that she found my father borderline racist (she repeatedly turned away his requests for updates on my progress during my treatment; I was a teenager at the time), that she did not believe any of what I told her about being depressed, and that she thought I had narcissistic personality disorder (I often asked questions about treatment, as I was curious about neuroscience at the time). Our time together wasn't that bad, and was probably comparable to not getting treated at all (but much more expensive of course, since she's out of network). Although she was pretty good at handling medication trials, she increased medication dosages very quickly, without much ...
regard on the psychotherapy front. All in all, I just think she had a lot going on personally and couldn't keep her ego out of our interactions. According to online records, during the time I was with her her license was being scrutinized for divulging patient information responding to another review written on google. It was also clear that she thought very highly of herself and couldn't handle any sort of questioning, even if it was out of wanting to know more about the treatment and not doubt of her abilities. I echo what others say (and it is evident from other reviews) in that she seems to care much more about what her peers have to say about her abilities than what her patients have to say about their treatment quality.
