Is anyone familiar with any of these child psychiatrists

[Anonymous]

I'm the OP from the moving med management thread. I've looked up who is covered under my insurance (because wouldn't it be nice to actually have insurance cover something instead of paying out of pocket like we do for every single other service we have for our SN child...anyway...). Here is who my insurance covers. I'm wondering if anyone has heard of/works with any of them?

Dr. Justine Julia Larson
Dr. Syed Asif Ali
Dr. Smita Patel
Dr. Mahteme Selassie
Dr. Uma Devi
Dr. Riffat Ashai
Dr. Donna Edison
Dr. Bert NayFack

Does anyone know if any psychiatrists from CNMC work out of the Rockville office? I see a couple that work out of the Fairfax office (also far, but easier to get to than downtown).

Only one I know of is Dr. Mahteme Selassie - lots of feedback on DCUM about him. run a search.

Also Google has feedback on his as well. We're actually considering using him for DS's med management.

These names look like our plan. I just made inquiries 2 weeks ago. I made an appointment for Dr. Salassie for August. Dr. Larson now works at a clinic. Dr. Ali seems a little shady. Look him up on the Maryland Judiciary Case Search. Will be calling Dr. Patel next week. She has a website.

I like Selassie just fine, but I know there have been negative comments about him here.
