“Very Poor Provider”
My mother who is 86 years old and has a diagnosis of Alzheimer's/dementia disease, was referred to Dr. Renee DuPont, a psychiatrist located in Encinitas, California. My mother, my father, and I visited with Dr. DuPont approximately four times over the last six months. We visited with her for our final time just yesterday, September 30, 2015, and after that appointment, we decided to never schedule another appointment with her again, nor recommend her to anyone. At my second meeting with her a few months back, she clearly said that she doesn't like dealing with the family members of her patients, but realizes that she must if she is to assist her dementia patients. This woman appears to have no empathy for her patients and their families. She has a very flat affect, speaks almost in a monotone, appearing to hand out canned speeches that she has probably delivered many times before. She offered us very little advice or assistance, none of which turned out to be successful. Lastly, her apparel is despicable, and not at all professional. If I didn't know better, I might consider her a homeless woman.
