Barbara Maxwell Psychologist RN.,Ph.D
Dr. Maxwell was incredible. How anyone could ever think she is rude is beyond me. We talked for over an hour and she even showed me some websites to find out calories and how to do a nutrition chart and printed out some stuff for me to show my daughter on the starbucks and einstein bagels we were getting every day. She is a HUGE supporter of people looking to have weight loss surgery.
Dr. Maxwell made me feel comfortable and normal. I kept expecting her to ask me some trick questions or try to get me to break down, but she didn't. My psych consult with her was a very pleasant experience. I've never been to a psychologist before, and am considering doing it now regularly because I feel I need it to cope with life's issues.
I did not like the chairs that patients sit in at her office - both the waiting room and her office. Chair is wide and I fit fine in it, but I know there are others bigger than me that would have issues with their hips fitting in the arms. Also, chairs sit down kind of low, so it's hard to get up.
I have read some of the comments saying that she is mean and I just can't believe them. She was extremely nice to me and I didn't feel rushed at all. She answered every question I had and even met my mother in the waiting room when we were done(I am 19). She was very considerate and I would recommend her to anyone who needs a phyic eval!
