I've found Dr Mendel to be professional, empathetic and very knowledgeable in assessing and treating adult ADHD.

Unproffesional, Unethical and Inconsiderate Extremely Poor Work Ethics Dr. Rui canceled my appointment when I reached his clinic on the appointment time with my 11-month-old baby boy. He also charged me full fee saying that he charged me because his time slot was taken by me. The day before, I suggested him that I will try to organize a nanny to accompany my son, otherwise I will cancel the appointment. Dr. Rui said "No don't cancel the appointment; it's not good for you. Just bring some toys so that he can play with them while you get the treatment". The next morning when I reached the clinic on appointment time with my baby boy and his toys. Dr. Rui said he can't work in the presence of toddler, and that he is going to cancel the appointment. This is unproffesional and inconsiderate to cancel the appointment, right on the appointment time. Dr. Rui was well aware of my situation, he should have canceled the appointment when I suggested him the day before. Otherwise he could have emailed me or called me to inform about the cancelation of appointment and issued me the refund online. I had to take the trouble of going to the clinic - taking uber ride with my toddler, whom i love more than anythingin the world, but its not easy. All the trouble could have been easily avoided, if the appointment was canceled the day before when I suggested it. Still i did not confront him for giving me the trouble of going to his clinic and canceling the appointment at the time i was already in there. I said OK , you can cancel my appointment and refund the money I paid for the TMS sessions. I thought he would give me full refund (including that day and the first TMS session that occured a day before - as TMS therapy is totally useless unless done in continuation, as said be Dr. Rui himself). I didn't expect him to even charge me for the appointment he was canceling. He was the one canceling the appointment on the last minute when I was already in the clinic for therapy. He said he can't treat me in the presence of toddler. He said he charged me because his time slot was taken by me. I didn't pay him to go to his clinic and watch his face while he cancels my appointment. I had paid him for TMS therapy, which he refused to give me because of my baby boy. He was neither willing to give me TMS treatment, nor willing to refund the money I had paid for it. This is extremely unprofessional, unethical, inconsiderate, unfair and unreasonable. No business should be allowed to operate in such an unproffeshional, unreasonable and unethical manner.
