List of Lawrence Shampain's Reviews
Left a message for a return call. Took 2 days and when he did call he was rude, would not let me speak, advised me he had 5 minutes to speak with me even though this was about the care of a child. He yelled at me and when I told him I was reporting me his response was”good I’ll give you my name and number” Do not trust your child to him!
This involves an 8 yr old child in a crisis center. During a family meeting call I was screamed at ,was told he only had 5 minutes to spare, he was rude, I could not speak unless I spoke over him, ridiculed and basically told your kid has behaved for 3 days so come and get him. He did nothing to help with the serious issues at hand. Nothing the family advised him of was taken into consideration and we were made to feel like we were the problem. When I told him I was reporting him his response was “ good I’ll give you my address” Stay away from this guy. Absolute horror!!!!
I saw Dr. Shampain when I was a child, almost 20 years ago. Dr. Shampain is, without question, the least professional doctor I ever encountered. He diagnosed me with depression and insisted I take antidepressants because my mother reported that I was grumpy in the morning. When I questioned him about weight gain from the medication, he laughed at me. As an adult, I know that I did not meet the diagnostic criteria for clinical depresssion and that the class of medication he prescribed is known to cause weigh gain. What I found most disturbing - and can never forget - was the photograph of his (?) child apparently potty training. Total creep!
Doesn't listen to what his patients tell him. Problems with medications that he just completely denied having anything to do with the problems. Also was treating for the wrong disorder.
He was in the same practice as my therapist who I loved, and was treating me for a bipolar disorder I did not have. When he finally convinced me to take the meds anyway I became a zombie (noticeably to everyone I knew, who were all concerned) and his answer was always upping and upping the meds which made the problem worse, which I told him over and over. I eventually just took myself off the medicine (after months of being dysfunctionally overmedicated nd misdiagnosed by this man) and found a psych who would listen to me. I don't recommend him to anyone.
Very knowledgeable and helpful. If he was taking new patients I would highly recommend him.

Selection Criteria
All the information you see here is based on our analysis of internet reviews across the seven major review platforms most used by consumers during their healthcare provider selection. The platforms we selected are Google, WebMD, Yelp, HealthGrades, Facebook, RateMDs, and Vitals. The analysis algorithm uses the compiled data of average score, recency of reviews, number of reviews, and the sentiment expressed in the written comments. It then assigns weight to each parameter based on the available research on how consumers use reviews in their doctor selection process. This report is designed to help identify the doctors with the best overall review score in an area and does not reflect the doctors' competence.
