Arnold G. Shapiro, MD

“I started talking my son to Dr. Shapiro when he was about 10, multiple schools, single mom, felt like a failure, horrible guilt for keeping him apparently I was the worst mother in the world, my son is now 35 no issues w drugs/alcohol, truancy, no unexpected or had to be "taken care of" babies he just purchased his 1st home completely on his own would not even tell grand parents until after closing and keys were in hand, Dr. diagnosed my son then diagnosed me, empowered me as a parent has our side when the schools tried to push off their obligations that our taxes pay for, over the past 30 yrs Ive missed an appointment here and there (1 appt was on 9/11) yes that 9/11 I don't think I was charged for that one I may have been charged for other ones but that is every doctors policy and some will refuse to ever see you again, over the 30+ years my insurance has changed some were accepted some were not, Insurance companies rape doctors have you ever looked at your statement? EXAMPLE BILL $395 CO-PAY $45 BALANCE $350 PLAN AGREEMENT $325 PLAN PAID $25 so doctor eats $325 Dr. Shapiro is PRIVATE and he is ABSOLUTELY POSITIVELY THE BEST TO HAVE ON YOUR SIDE AND HAVE YOUR BACK, you pay for what you get, my son's life was not worth short cutting and being cheap, Dr. Shapiro has the right to pick and chose who he deals with everyone out there has the right to decide where they want to go, but every penny I spent I would have gladly paid twice as much insurance or not this is our doctor for life, I'll eat peanut and crackers before I switch doctors. But I was a young girl getting bullied by a system had no support raising a son on her own. Dr Shapiro changed our world and 30 yrs later still has our back. Options and choices TERRI K”

“Dr Shapiro helped us start medication and get a diagnosis, but he really pushed high doses of meds and was trying to convince us that our child had bipolar disorder. He has a very nice psychologist that works with him and my child liked meeting with her. We are grateful that he helped us get on the path of meds but we decided to switch to a practice that allowed us to explore lower/more appropriate doses of meds.”

“I'm a Mother of 4 children and three out of four of my children as well as myself have been patient's of Dr. Shapiro's for many years. We also have other family that see him as well. Dr. Shapiro is very kind, caring and devoted to helping families that deal with mental health and behavioral issues. Thank you Dr. Shapiro and staff for your extended care for our family.
