Kyle B. Latimer, APRN, MSN-PMHNP

Very thorough, spent 90minites or so on this evaluation. Listened well, gave good options, engaging and personable.

With many years of personal therapy and psychiatric help I can say without hesitation that this was the best first experience I have ever had with a provider. Not only was he listening and knowledgeable but he took his time to make sure that we walked through all of my prior treatments as well as personal story to be able to formulate the best case for success on my route to finding the right fit for medication.

Kyle used an odd voice (almost cartoonish) when discussing topics that he either thought were uncomfortable or difficult to discuss. There was a student observing him, so it appeared he was trying to be cool or maybe is just made uncomfortable by those topics? Those topics include: drug use, sexual activity/desire, hormones (and a couple others I do not directly remember). When asking me the customary questions about mental health, after he finished the set typically associated with schizophrenia, he made a quip about me being lucky I didn't have a psychotic break. I'm familiar with these questions because my sister is schizophrenic. This remark was beyond disrespectful, even without family history. I left the appointment fairly uncomfortable and attempted rescheduling with another provider but apparently cannot do so without discussing it with him. I'm unsure if I'll return.

Kyle always is very thorough with his assessment. I can always tell that he cares about my feelings or questions.

There was so much discussed. I hope I'll get a written summary of everything. That will be very helpful since I have a processing disorder
