Dr. Hany Botros-Mikhail, MD

I'm so sorry for those who had bad experiences but when I saw all these awful review i had to post my own review.I feel blessed I didn't have any of these issues with him that these others claim to have had when I saw him me the few times I did. He was nice to me when I saw him.I was more than happy to see him.I felt he cared and wanted me to be well.I appreciate his help.

He doesn’t communicate with his patients whatever assumption he has of you it’s stuck in his head. He throws out medications even if you don’t need it and communicate with him that you don’t need it.

I was Baker Acted for severe anxiety and suicidal ideation, transported to HCA Florida West Tampa for 5 days. He appeared once a day for 2-3 minutes to wake me up, take my vitals, and tell me what medications he is prescribing. I was never heard; it seemed like I was just another 'crazy' in his calendar. It was dehumanizing. After discharge, I went home and started seeing a therapist and psychiatrist, both of whom were shocked at the medication and dosage he prescribed. According to them, the medication he prescribed was irrelevant to my condition, evidence of his lack of concern over me as a patient. I just recieved a bill - 5 months later - of $700 for his "services." I can deal with the bill. But the patronizing approach he took in the physician-patient relationship attests to the dire situation of mental healthcare in this country.

I do not know what happened but he and his staff have drastically gone downhill. They won't treat my ADHD because I am on disability.

Excellent bedside manner. Psychiatry involves many difficult issues and he has no air of judgment and invites questions.

Doesn't listen. Rushes you out.

I found my visits with Dr. Botros are very calming and reassuring to my general health and mental health. He listens, observes, treats his patients with respect and genuinely display a profound sense of empathy. Truly a breath of fresh air in a day and age when patient's are hurried through bustling busy Dr.'s offices. Please note my visits with Dr. Botros were in a hospital setting.

Dr. Botros has been my dr for several years, kind, listens and attentive. His staff of well qualified PA's assist with patients. Diana is great with me, very helpful, attentive & kind. Scheduling is strict and difficult to get fit in for emergencies, so keep your appt time. Because of the nature of Psychiatry, dealing with problem patients & drug abusers they have a strict office policy which most offices sadly must employ, which includes drug testing.

Dr. Botros is a friendly and involved doctor. I have had NO problems with his staff. I have had several appointments and have had absolutely NO problems. Treatment is good and insight is outstanding.

I have seen him many years! In the last 3 years its been hell to get in with him the front desk girls are VERY NASTY TO PATIENTS. THE doctor is unaware or too busy for concern on how they treat patients. They change the person that sees you everytime abd change meds monthly messing you up mentally

The most inconsiderate, condescending, charges you for never seeing you.

Part 2. His staff claims I missed a visit which is a total joke. His staff told me I needed to pay up before I made an appointment. I am now on 5 days without the medication they specifically say not to just stop taking. I am definitely complaining to my insurance provider and I encourage you to do the same.

I would never recommend him to anyone. Yes he prescribes meds quickly but is that always good? I felt like a ginny pig, and that not much thought was being put into the meds I was being given. He didnt remember my case or even how long he had me on the meds. After 3 meetings with him I was done.

I did not like Dr Botros Mikhail. He did not ask details of my depression, told me basically what he wanted to and put me on medications which the hospital would only say that the Dr ordered them. The Dr was very rude to my husband and myself. He even lied about my mental state and put in records that I was crying all the time and not aware of my surroundings. The video tapes at the hospital will reflect a very different mental state compared to what the Dr claimed.

Awful Doctor. Hardly speaks and doesn't seem to care about patients well being
