Mental Health Providers in Wabash, Indiana

I started going to The Bowen Center back in 2022… while I was REALLY struggling with my mental health. At first, it was very difficult for me to find the right therapy and medications that worked for me… it took about a year before I finally found the right psychiatrist… and of course, there was also a lot of trial and error with medications before I could even feel stable again. After finally finding a regimen that worked, I began to see a light at the end of my tunnel. I was doing well for about a year before they switched my psychiatrist to Dr Hani Ahmad. My initial meeting with Dr Ahmad was extremely brief and somewhat uncomfortable. He barely greeted me before he told me “I read through your file and believe that you have been misdiagnosed. I think that you’re extremely anxious from trauma and you just have a ton of PTSD.” Then he informed me that he would be discontinuing all the meds that I had been prescribed from my previous psychiatrist. …I pretty much begged him not to discontinue my Bipolar med after I had explained how long I struggled before I found a prescription that worked for me… and that I disagreed, stating that I did not believe that I had been “misdiagnosed”. He then said, “The previous psychiatrist that you were seeing is no longer here because she over-diagnosed and over-medicated patients. We are going to start from a new baseline and I am going to be discontinuing your meds.” I COULD NOT BELIEVE how insanely rude and inappropriate he was being, while discussing the performance of the other staff members there. The entire meeting lasted less than 10 minutes and it felt extremely unprofessional. It took me over a year to find out where my old psychiatrist was practicing and my mental health suffered significantly because of how quickly I was dismissed by Dr. Ahmad. I ended up having to call the facility for a referral in order to see my old psychiatrist at her new practice... and they refused to send one, stating that they weren’t able to because I hadn’t had a visit at The Bowen Center within a year. I will never go back there again for any kind of service. Ever.
