Cecilia Drake Psychologist Ph.D.
I was very unhappy with Dr. Drake. I felt that she was only interested in creating more business for herself. I sensed that she had made up her mind about me before we even met. I did not pass her psych eval, although I did fine on the MMPI.
I would not recommend Dr. Drake to anyone. You will not pass.
Dr. Drake didn't appear to be a very good listener. She would ask me a question only to interrupt me with another one. After chatting with me for 20 minutes or so, she ends up telling me that PacifiCare bases her recomendation so high that she made me feel like what my surgeon or family doctor might have to say would be non-sufficient. She recomended I come in for more evaluations and never really did say whether she was recomending me for surgury or not. I got a little lost in our talk, I will give her one more chance to more thoroughly explain her role and recomendations and then I shall seek advice elsewhere if I'm still feeling unclear or dissatisfied.
It took a month to just get the results from my appointment typed. She was very rude in stating that she "does a log of these tests" and only has one typist, so she couldn't tell me when I might be getting my results. I called a total of 8 times making sure to ask them to call me when they had my letter typed. They never called me! I found out the week after they were mailed that it was done.
