Dr. Elizabeth Alison Sikes

Dr. Sikes is a good listener. She has helped me manage medications and has offered support through crises. I feel Dr Sikes has explained my diagnosis and treatment well. She has been very patient.

Dr. Sikes has helped me a lot.

Dr Sikes provided excellent, professional care.

Dr. Sikes was a VA psychiatrist when I saw her after being hospitalized at a VA hospital. She blamed me for a bad medication reaction from meds prescribed by one of her fellow VA doctors, refused to have a single sit down with me the whole time I was there, and totally ignored the VA's own decades long diagnosis of me as having a specific psychiatric disorder by putting on my discharge paper an Axis 1 diagnosis of "cannabis dependence," yet the whole time I was there not her nor anyone else mentioned anything about cannabis, even at discharge time, nor was I offered any type of counseling. VA psychiatrists are infamous for misdiagnosing mentally ill veterans as having "substance abuse disorders, personality disorders, and character disorders" to avoid paying out VA disability, and they are well known to change your diagnosis to achieve this end as well. If this doctor has a history of mistreating veterans, I would not trust her.
