About John Christopher Strunk
Reviews for John Christopher Strunk
Dr. John has been a game changer for me! We clicked instantly and he has taught me so many valuable skills. There is no one else I would recommend. Very professional, reliable and a delight to work with.
Dr. Strunk is very professional and patient. My teen and preteen always look forward to their next visit. The visits did not start this way but communication has gotten better and better one visit at a time. We all are thankful for him.
Terrible experience. All staff was rude during the visit to myself and other patients, I never even got to meet with Dr Strunk. Two of his staff saw to me, during which they asked me what illness *I* thought I had and then left me to take an online test. I could literally hear staff in the hallway speaking about patients in a rude manner as though they were objects rather than people. The two staff members came back, told me they would start me on Buspirone & Effexor and rushed me out on my way with little explanation. I was having mental health issues and came to speak with someone that could actually diagnose me and help me with it, NOT tell someone what I think is wrong, be given meds, and rushed out quickly. My anxiety was absolutely horrible after that experience. I had to make a second appointment when I was in the office waiting to be seen but I never went back for that appointment as I dreaded going back in to deal with the staff.
Dr Strunk was understanding and professional, never giving me the notion that he was not more than able to provide exactly what I needed today. He came highly recommended, and I was not disappointed. My circumstances for seeing Dr Strunk today were probably not the same as someone else, but I would still highly recommend him.
I have referred several clients to Dr. John C. Strunk for med management and am so pleased by the very competent and professional help they have received. An invaluable resource. Thank you!
Dr. John is a highly skilled and truly talented Psychiatrist. Every session with hin provides gifts of insight, transformation, and self-healing tools. I've experienced Dr. John's approach as an artful and highly effective application of cognitive science, somatic awareness, genuine compassion, and powerful visual and literal tools.
Dr. John C is very caring and a wonderful person. He has been a driving force in keeping me on a path to wellness.
Dr. John C. Strunk always listens to me. He lets me have input on my care. And let's me be involved in the decisions made. I love him.
I've been a patient of Dr. Strunk for 12+ years. My life has changed drastically for the better. So much gratitude for this man.
My quality of life has improved so much since starting my journey with John. I am so thankful I found the courage to reach out and that I found this place. No regrets.
The place is weird.. weird atmosphere… they’re very short staffed… they will prescribe you anything and won’t ask if you’ve even taken the medication before. As soon as you explain how you’re feeling. Whom ever you’re talking to leaves and next thing you know you have a prescription they haven’t explained or educated you on nor will they tell you what the prescribed .
Doctor Strunk is the best. I cant say that enough. Being under his care is one of the best Things thats happened to me.
Dr.Strunk is great, very empathetic, knowledgeable, and experienced. I know that he has great understanding of what I am going through. This is the 1st doc I feel completely safe with as he is unconditional and non-judgmental.
This is the worst psychiatrist I’ve ever dealt with. His staff is hateful and not helpful in any way. They forget to call your meds into your pharmacy and they lied to me on the phone and would hang up on my phone calls. He terminated me as a patient for an issue with someone at the front desk and I didn’t receive a letter or anything. He left me in the middle of treatment with no medication refills and no other mental health recommendations. I had a panic attack at his clinic upon finding out this information
Honestly, this was the best care I've ever had with a phsyciatrist. I would recommend Dr. John 100%. He was thorough and helps you find a long term solution for any issues. Super caring, sincere, and has you leaving knowing you're on the right path. I definitely felt cared for and valued by everyone.
Dr Strunk is a very fine psychiatrist and his method of treatment is highly effective. He and his team put their best in providing the best treatment for every patient.
Dr. Strunk is a very good doctor and beyond that very nice and understanding person who listen to his patients very calmly. He is one of the finest doctor who understand the root cause and his diagnosis is so quick.
Dr. Strunk is great, very empathetic, knowledgeable, and experienced. I know that he has great understanding of what I am going through. This is the 1st doc I feel completely safe with as he is unconditional and non-judgmental.
Very kind and listens carefully to concerns and problems. Completely different from past experience with other psychiatrists who can be extremely judgemental!
Super friendly front desk and support personnel. They treat you as a human - not as a âchart numberâ. The providers here are some of the best around and know their business. They enjoy what they are doing, maintain high and current standards of care, and work with every patient to give them the best outcome possible.
My daughter and I had an appointment with Dr. John C. Strunk to address some issues. He was very knowledgeable and professional. He was able to help my daughter get her life on track. Wonderful place, glad we found them.
The receptionist rudely hung up on me!
Dr. Strunk is an excellent psychiatrist. He is knowledgeable about medications and also a skilled psychotherapist. Can't beat that combination. Highly recommend!

Dr. Strunk has been my all time favorite mental health professional I've ever worked with. He is a phenomenal listener, but also can skillfully interject exactly the thing you need to hear exactly when you should hear it. I'm incredibly grateful for the time I've spent with him and cannot more highly suggest him.
I see on here that someone that has access to the reviews are breaking HIPPA laws by saying what kinda of medicine their patients are being prescribed.. If a patience is having trouble following a treatment plan maybe the doctor should see what is going on with that patience that they are having trouble following it. And I also have Been to the clinic with a friend who they talked about with all girls behind the desk. Talking about what they are getting from the doctor... More HIPPA laws being broken. I just thinking that they don't look at allot of their patience as mental health patience that need help or assistance with things. They look at their patience like they are better than them like all low class people I see on here that someone that has access to the reviews are breaking HIPPA laws by saying what kinda of medicine their patients are being prescribed..

Anytime I have any issue, the staff follows up with me and solves the issue. I appreciate the kind and understanding staff and my doctor as well.
Iâve been going here over a year now. Iâve always been treated professionally. Everyone is so nice. My Dr. is courteous and caring. Everyone Iâve dealt with has treated me respectfully while Iâve been learning to deal with my diagnoses. Highly recommend this office!
As a new patient at Dr. Strunk's office, I am humbled. I was treated with patience, empathy and respect. After 3 visits,(which my friend drives me one hour plus) I am starting to manage my anxiety. Best of intentions and the new meds are helping me feel in control of my life. So grateful!
Can’t recommend this place enough!!! From the time you walk into the office, until the time you leave, you feel comforted and hopeful. Dr Strunk provides professional and compassionate care in a nonjudgmental atmosphere. He is knowledgeable and truly has the patient’s best interest at heart.

I was able to get an appointment ASAP. I love my new doctor, he was very attentive and cared very much what I was going through! Would highly recommend them.
Dr. John was awesome with getting me set up with everything I needed for my appointments. I'm so glad I found this team. I look forward to working with them through my journey.
I've been a patient of Dr. Strunk for about a year and feel fortunate to have found him. He and his friendly staff have always made me feel welcome and very comfortable when I would come in for an appointment. Dr John is extremely knowledgeable and incredibly easy to talk to.
Dr. John is an amazing psychiatrist. He is easy to talk to and truly cares about his patients. The receptionist is friendly and the office is clean and well maintained.
I had a great experience working with Dr. John over this last year! On boarding and intake paperwork was easy, the front desk staff were very helpful with all of my questions, and I received top notch care and attention from Dr. John during our visits. Highly recommend!
You only see the Dr two minutes and he's out the lady at the desk very very very rude she was hollaring at a patient on the phone slamming her hand on the desk I told them that was very wrong to treat a patient like that very very un professional there they want get my money no more hope the lady at the desk loses her job I hope that patient tells on her it was today don't go there You only see the Dr two minutes and he's out the lady at the desk very very very rude she was hollaring at a patient on the phone slamming her hand on the desk I told them that was very wrong to treat a patient like that very very un … More
Had a wonderful experience with Dr. Strunk. Everyone was very kind and helped me get the care I needed.
Excellent staff. Always willing to help. I feel confident in Dr. Strunk’s knowledge on the direction he leads his patients. Highly recommend his services.
A place where you can feel comfortable and safe because you will be in good care. Dr. Strunk is a great doctor who cares about your well-being and works with you to feel your best self. He shares his knowledge on how to cope better with life uncertainties. I highly recommend him if you feel lost and you are in need for help.
This place has been amazing and every need of mine has been met so far. The appointments are easier to get than at any other office I've tried. The offices are calm and comforting. I couldn't be happier with Dr. Strunk. He's easy to talk to and seems to really care about your well being while getting to know you.
Dr. John is a fantastic psychiatrist! He's incredibly knowledgeable and very easy to talk to -- I felt comfortable talking with him immediately. I would highly recommend Dr. John to anyone looking to speak with a psychiatrist.
Dr. John was very nice and right to the point in my son's situation. It was our First Appointment so looking forward to keep working together on my son Eric's health.
Dr. John is very knowledgeable, and really listens to what you have to say. Heâs very thorough and communicates very effectively. He is highly, highly recommended!
John is carrying knowledgeable and very professional. I like to text reminders about appointments and the professional way the staff answers the phone quickly when calling.
This is a great office with exceptional doctor and staff. Especially Dr. John Strunk.
Absolutely the worst Dr I’ve ever been to. It seems that they are only interested in getting patients in and out as fast as possible while collecting their money. They double and triple book patients and have you waiting on hours. When you do finally get in to se the Dr it’s is a brief 5 min conversation and out the door you go. Would not recommend to anyone but seeing as he is the main psychiatrist in the Dothan area most people don’t have a choice. Absolutely the worst Dr I’ve ever been to.

Amazing experience!! I’ve seen a few doctors for the issue I was having and came across Dr. Strunk. They are quick and available right away and the Dr. knew exactly what I needed when other Dr. could not help. I would definitely recommend him 100 percent!!
This man shouldnât even be practicing. His staff is rude and uncaring. He once halve my med without telling me and when I brought it to his attention he terminated me with no alternatives
BEST DR EVER, HE IS SO CARING, LOVING AND AMAZING (MY CAPS IS STUCK)
Sweet Dr and always listen to my concerns .. Love coming to see him.. And his staff is just awesome
Why would a psychiatrist tell a client they would not benefit from therapy and then give them antipsychotic meds which make then throw up every day? And then avoid them when they reach out? And his staff are not helpful at all.
The sweetest kind caring Dr I've met.
It was good, didn't have to wait very long, even though we were late.
He took me off my meds ive been on for over 4 years and will not give them back to me. He won't even talk to me. Very unprofessional. I thought he was supposed to help. FYI.

Dr. and his staff were very rude. Considering they are dealing with mental health they should have some compassion. Would not recommend to anyone as i was unfortunately. Not at all concerned about my well being. Plus they talk about you and laugh. Good luck.
The office is clean the staff has been nice to me and my husband. I have only been at this office for a few months. Dr. Strunk seems like a good doctor to me. He seems to want to help people who want to help themselves. The office stays busy the wait time is truly not that bad. All and all I would refer him.. I feel better then I have in years.

We drove from tallahasse to dothan for appt,got there to talk to him about the tremors from meds he gave her,he said How are you? She said ok,he said ok here's your refill and walked out I said what about these tremors,he said oh i will get her something, handed the meds no education about med at all,he started her on high dose a few days later she got so sick had to take her to hospital,we made several calls to him none were returned,I left another message saying she's in a desperate situation ease help,calls never were returned not even from answering service,er had to do cat scan,chest xray and labwork,labor, he didn't care,and I don't need a reply back supporting wrongdoing.
Most uncompassionate dr. I've ever had. After being a patient for a year I've yet to meet this man but for 2 minutes. Him and his staff are judgemental especially to a person who is mentally struggling. I dont understand people who can do this type of career and be so heartless. I would not recommend even if your desperate for help. They do not care. Thank you. God bless.
Worst doctor ever!!!! If I could give him a 0 I would! Jennifer who is the nurse practitioner is amazing, but dr shrunk is rude and he yelled at me in front of employees and patients! I even had one patient tell me they would never go back to him because what he done to me was uncalled for! It was my first time seeing him and it’ll definitely be my last! He came into my room and didn’t stay but a minute! Didn’t even try to talk to me or ask how I was! Rudest dr I have ever seen! I filed a complaint with the medical board and will be talking to a lawyer also! See picture for what was sent to medical board of exactly what happened! Worst doctor ever!!!!

Most incompetent office my wife and I ever had to deal with. They call to confirm appt. then never call you. You call them and they tell you your not on the list. My wife got a call and a message. Now she has to wait 2 weeks without here meds. How is she supposed to get better? Very frustrating. Bill Body
Doctor Strunk has been my mental Health Doctor for several years. He was my last ray of hope. Not one Dr. even listened to my problem. That goes for several Drs. in the Dothan area. Very bad Anxiety and depression. I got a small booklet in the Sunday Eagle. I found the Dr. in that booklet. I was on my last few weeks. He took me in and fixed my problems, and I sleep all night whereas I did not before. Dr. Strunk saved my life. I owe my life to him. For 10 years.
????I was a patient of Dr Shucks for a few years. I was dismissed as his patient by letter in the mail. Hhmm never been fired from seeing a Dr. It's very true Dr Shruck pops in for about 5 mins after you've waited hours to see him. He's a strange man. But thank goodness I have the best Dr ever now. He talks to me and gives me no less then 20 minutes with him. . And your wait time is no more then 10 mins. I'm glad he fired me !???? ????I was a patient of Dr Shucks for a few years.

I was treated very kindly by the staff and the Dr. He is helping me thru a very difficult time. I am grateful to have gotten in so quickly at the last minute and look forward to seeing them in the future as we continue our journey to Wellness.

Dr strunk and his staff went above and beyond to accommodate My mother , to keep her on her correct meds the whole time she had pneumonia , and was recovering from a week on a ventilator . I want to say a big thank you
I was a patient of his for years and had me on a concoction of medicine that has lead to health issues later in life.
Very rude front office staff. And when you address that someone was rude to you with another member of the staff, they don’t care either. I have been using this office for about a year but after this experience I will be moving somewhere with staff that actually cares.
My first visit and They just thought I wanted to come in for Substance abuse and then denied me a treatment. Very unprofessional was on the phone with them several times where they hung up on me when I called back they put me on hold several times spoke to different people and had explain myself all over again
All he cares about is your money. Wait time is about 2- 2 and half hours to see him for 5 minutes. He passes out controlled substances like candy. He don’t listen to you when you talk to him. He makes it very obvious he doesn’t like his job or people. I specifically told him I didn’t want a certain medication and he completely ignored me and prescribed it anyway. He will let you go without medications you need for a couple weeks if he doesn’t get his money. Do not waste your time. Find someone who cares about your mental health.

Horrible office staff and horrible wait times! If I could give it a 0 I would.
Not the place to go if your looking for help. I have a lot of things going on and not much clarification on anything with the nurse practitioners and doctor Strunk himself. I had an appointment with them at 11 this morning and they called me a week ago to reschedule to 2:20 pm today because of some family emergency but then I found out that they were having a pizza party because my husband delivered to them this morning.I had to wait over 2 hours to even be seen by someone. None of them explained to me any of the processes and it was only my first time going back. Didn’t know I had to choose between getting a tooth pulled and taking the pain killers or stop taking my xanax but no one said anything about it until afterwards. This is a horrible doctors office and they are not very friendly. I do hope this place closes down one of these days Not the place to go if your looking for help.

Wait times are always over an hour. Waited 2 hours and was seen by a medical student but billed for a physician visit. Staff does not wear masks. They are very unprofessional and treatment is poor.
I just tried to schedule an appointment with Dr. Strunk. I was placed on hold for 11 minutes and when the receptionist came back on the line she was laughing and kept saying "I'm so sorry!" while laughing. OK, whatever. As we were scheduling she kept telling me dates and then saying, "Oh, no. That's not a good day." We finally came up with a date and time and I asked if we could do it over video. She told me no because I am a new patient, I needed to come in to fill out paperwork. So I asked her if I could fill it out online or come in on an earlier day to fill it out and still do video, and she very rudely yelled in the phone, "YOU HAVE TO FILL OUT PAPERWORK!" while someone else was loudly laughing in the background. I told her "I understand I need to fill out paperwork, that's fine." She started giggling again and asked me for my name. At that point I just said thanks, never mind. Bedside manner/professionalism is a hard miss here. I would not recommend calling when you are feeling low. I just tried to schedule an appointment with Dr. Strunk.

We've been on hold and unable to speak to even a nurse for a week after several attempts. They seem to be unwilling to put my spouse on any medication actually covered by our insurance. I go to a different psychiatrist and now so will my spouse. I suggest avoiding this place. It is unorganized, unfriendly, messy, and in a bad location for traffic. It was a very expensive mistake to try them out and I hope nobody actually needing medical care makes the same mistake. Edit: if I experience any sort of the retaliatory behavior outlined by other customers you will hear from the family lawyer Edit: post response. We were never told any of this information. Would that not A. be private medical info that you are revealing on a public forum? and B. Something a patient should know? Revealing patient's info in a public forum counts as retaliatory behavior btw. For those reading. This was the fastest response I have ever seen from this office. Called for days and nothing but here they are online I had to file a complaint with the heath department and medical examiner's to get our private medical info taken down . So that's what you're dealing with here. Oh and the "co-pay"? Was 500 bucks! We've been on hold and unable to speak to even a nurse for a week after several attempts.

Only gave a 1 star because you have give one to leave a review. Our family moved to AL with our daughter having metal health issues. We have been dealing with these issues for 7yrs. Upon her admission to the facility in AL. Dr Strunk , was assigned to her team. The encounter with this Dr and team has been so unprofessional, unkind, medical staff we have encounter. He spoke in a very un-ethnical way and was very hostile during a "treatment team meeting via zoom and faced the camera to a wall and would not allow access to him as he screamed very hostile and demeaning comments". Working with families is not a concern for this Dr, he just speaks and DEMANDS that we will do as he says as he said " it doesn't matter what you want, this is how I say it will be like or not nothing you can do". It is a very difficult place to be as a parent as this Dr seems to be "protected" behind the walls of the facility and can speak and act out how ever he wish with no consequences. no matter how hostile, un-ethnical, unprofessional he is being. The staff is no better to not report this behavior as the whole team seems to be very toxic as we can't move away soon enough. And this Dr will not step down as our daughters provider after we asked for a different Dr, he feels "Entitled" to do as he wishes and has not once taken a minute to speak with the family, only taking the word of a toxic therapist whom has created this toxic relationship with our family and facility. This Dr is very much using his position of "Power" and is a bully. All these negative reviews can not be wrong they reflect the true unprofessionalism of this Dr, whom ever is managing the website and reviews, should personally (by phone) follow up with the review before making any remark for this individual has not been involved in the care nor the issues/problems - you can't remark and make a fair judgement when you don't know the facts, can't only take the Dr's/staff word for he will protect himself and doesn't want to take ownership of his arrogance.

As a new patient, this guy spent about 5 minutes with me. Total waste of time and money. I won't be going back. Staff was nice. The wait time is about 2 hours, and then you get 5 minutes with him. He got paid plenty of money for his 5 minutes. He doesn't enjoy his work, doesn't like people. I would not recommend him to anyone.
I was grateful for years- I even used to travel hundreds of miles at one point- for Dr Strunk's guidance and willingness (unlike any of the 12+ psychiatrists I've seen before or since) to use stronger (including controlled) meds, off-label/experimental options, and combinations when the conventional/approved options had failed. Unfortunately, when he had me on several strong/controlled meds (may have been the stimulants combined with Xanax that contributed to my lack of inhibition?, Hard to recall) I said something rude about how short/abrupt follow up appointments are, and wishing I could speak a bit more. Although I guess it was mentioning an online review that called him a "pill pusher" that did it.. even though I didn't think that, if anything was grateful for the access to effective meds.. but whatever it was he refused to ever see me again. I didn't even know until months later when calling to make a follow up appt only to be told I was dropped and no further refills would be provided. They claimed to have mailed a letter about this earlier I never received. So I came off almost all of it cold turkey, as every other doc and facility in the area either wouldn't accept my case or wouldn't/couldn't prescribe anything close. Suffice it to say, it took years of hard work, prayer, discipline, and extensively studying the medical literature myself to forge my own recovery. I learned to live largely without decent insurance, paid time off, access to competent doctors, affordable/local therapists, and (conventional) meds. Maybe it was all for the best- thanks to an alternative practitioner in FL, I was finally able to find lasting, near perfect relief of all my issues- including quitting drinking within 2 weeks, smoking within another month and and all prescription medication (including for asthma/allergies, blood pressure, sugar, and triglycerides) in less than a year. *Btw- very long waits as many others said and don't expect to ever get records transferred anywhere- if they even exist- my 4-5 other psychiatrists and a disability lawyer certainly couldn't. If you are pleased with him, just be extremely careful and respectful whenever you speak to him directly or you could lose everything without notice as I did.

My name is Amy Hand and this doctor has saved my life many of times...may he continue to be blessed
Dr. Strunk is extremely intelligent and the staff have always been exceedingly helpful. He does have a large clientele so you may have to wait.
For the first time in many years... facing Bipolar II and all the obstacles I face... I was able to connect to my doctor to the point of tears. If you need help and face mental illness...there is help. Keep praying and don't give up. God will see you through.
Maybe it's just because I'm not a talker, but I love the way Dr Strunk does things. I don't have to sit there for an hour and do small talk. He gets the information he needs and goes from there. He's treated me with love and respect and the office staff are always very kind. I had to bring my 3 year old yesterday to my appointment and they went above and beyond to accommodate us and keep her happy. If it wasn't for Dr strunk and his staff.

I've been seeing Dr strunk since he was in Ozark ala he's always been on top of my mental health,you think he's not really paying attention to you but he is,it's just his mild manners, he's always been nothing but a caring physician! He knows me by name and has always been pleasent to me!!! Thanks to his Wonderful,friendly, staff I've ALWAYS felt comfortable with him! He does have a long waiting time but usually if you're a little early to your appointment he will get you in and out of office, quickly but officiant!!! His staff is very pleasant or at least they have been for me!
Do NOT use this man, I repeat do NOT use this man. I have no idea how he comes up with his assessments and conclusions. He wrote completely false statements in an assessment which has caused our family a ton of hassle and unnecessary paperwork. He saw our family member for only a few minutes and made erroneous claims in her report that are completely untrue. BEWARE
Oh, and also, his staff is amazing. Considering the patient load that they have to deal with everyday, I give them full marks. And at no point have they ever been rude to me, at most, they seem like they get overwhelmed at times but that is understandable. A lot of people go to Dr Strunk because he is such a good doctor so yeah, you're going to have to wait a while and you're going to have to be patient. People don't seem to understand that his staff is doing the best they can. Yes, you might get disconnected on a call once in a while, give it a few minutes and call back. And if they seem irritated, I can imagine so! Think of what they have to deal with on a daily basis! But it is my personal experience that you get what you give. I'm always very patient and kind to them and I get it back in return. Those ladies work hard, and I have never heard them say a bad thing about anyone while signing in or out getting my appointment schedule. They work hard for their money, trust me.
Complete breakdown of patient doctor relationship. My prescription was running out so I called and said I needed a refill until I saw Dr. strunk again a couple of weeks later. I was informed that they can’t do refills by phone, that I had to see dr. Strunk and could make an earlier appointment to see him. I was going through a kidney stone that had blocked my only kidney so I didn’t know when I would be able to see him. Understandable except my prescription was for thirty days and no refills and they schedule my next appointment in 45 days. I go to my original scheduled appointment in 45 days and waited for over an hour in a room full of other people until I finally got fed up with the disrespect and told them to give me a refund on my copay and cancel any further appointments. Now I’m stuck without a psychiatrist, and without medications that I need. I’m just hoping my internal medicine doctor will start treating me again like he did before I lost my mind and asked to see Dr. Strunk
I was screamed at laughed at and downright treaed like a dog. This man and his staff are unprofessional and I wish to God I'd never walked into this joke of a Dr office.
This is the worst Dr you could possibly see. He and his staff are pure trash. If you or a loved one are thinking of seeing this man please don't. His nurse flat out lied about me and my regular doctor. She came in my room screaming and acting like a maniac when I asked her to calm down she proceeded to open the door telling other staff I was the one yelling at her. The doctor and the staff laughing the whole time. They treat people like human cattle. Stay away!!!!
This doctor is a pill pusher. He does not care about his patients. He will not even spend two minutes in the room with you. I had a specific incident where he was standing outside the door of the room that I was in and read my description of why I was there that day and started laughing at it. He then preceded to walk over to the other staff that was in the hallway and read my description to them and they all started laughing. This is just one of the major violations that this office has done. I have experienced multiple bad visits going there. They do not care about you or your mental health. All he cares about is a paycheck. Please go talk to all of the doctors and trained medical professional staff around and get their opinion of him. I have not met one medical professional that has anything good to say about him.

Horrible, unpleasant, 3 hour wait every time I come here. Ridiculous!
Horrible service. I walked in and signed in and saw 4 people above me with appointments and the same time. Waited for an hour to be called back and was then asked if I was a new patient. I was told I had to fill out paperwork then and it would be another hour. I should have received paperwork almost immediately after I walked in. If you don't have four hours to wait somewhere you need to pick another doctor. Horrible service. I walked in and signed in and saw 4 people above me with appointments and the same time.

Had appointment at 2pm I arrived at 130pm so I would have time to do the new patient papers work. I sat till 330pm. I went to the front desk to ask why so long. Well , they did not like the tone of my voice. I was asked had I ever been seen by this Dr Strunk. I said No I am a new patient. I was asked to leave and not come back. Boy did God saved me. Few days later karma showed up and raided his office. Thank you God for saving me once again from a bad Dr. Edit this review due to poor news reporting. I apologise for my remarks about a raid. As I looked further into. I don't know Dr Strunk. Never had a chance. Raid had nothing to do with his practice. I do believe he's has too many patients that he can't not offer short waiting periods.

If you take ANY CONTROLLED SUBSTANCE stay away from Dr. Strunk. I just moved back to Dothan from Houston, TX and have been taking the same meds for over 10 years. I've been prescribed the same meds by 3 different doctor's over those 10 years and never had one single issue. The last doctor I've had in Houston I used for 4 years and is VERY well respected. Again, never one issue. Years ago, I had elbow surgery and got addicted to pain medicine. It was a long hard battle getting over that addiction, but I've been clean and sober now for 4 years (by the grace of God and working a recovery program). When I visited Dr Strunk the other day I was told that the DEA was cracking down on doctor's prescribing these drugs (very common controlled substances) and that he wouldn't prescribe them to me... The real kicker was he told me I needed to focus on my recovery... Again, I work VERY hard on my recovery and took his comment as quite an insult! My mother also goes (or should I say went) to Strunk for years and never had any issues until his office was recently raided by the DEA. In my opinion Strunk needs to just shut the doors. Some of us need a controlled substance to help us and MOST of us don't abuse these drugs... Stay away from Dr Strunk unless all you need is prozac or similar meds... He apparently doesn't prescribe controlled substances any longer. I need to also add that I truly believe Dr Strunk USED to be a great doctor and still has the capabilities... I'm not sure if the DEA raid was for legitimate reasons or not (I imagine it was not, because I think psych docs get unnecessary scrutiny from regulations and such)... Whatever the reason may be it has apparently put too much fear into Dr Strunk and he is scared to prescribe medications that people actually need to live a normal life. It's really a shame, because I reiterate that I believe Dr Strunk is great at what he does... he's obviously just afraid of the DEA. I feel a bit sorry for him, but I need a Dr. who can actually prescribe the meds I need... If you take ANY CONTROLLED SUBSTANCE stay away from Dr. Strunk.

I Had the worst patient experience with a Doctor. In my opinion, the past DEA raid has Dr. Shrunk rattled. He was affordable but you get what you pay for here. The Staff is nice, and welcoming, but Dr. Shrunk is short winded, and never really took anytime with me to see what my underlying problem was. I would suggest researching the practice, and the doctor, before you let anyone recommend meds to you. I went where my insurance said was in my network. If you have to pay more out of pocket to see a good doctor, I would suggest you do just that. Dr. Shrunk really let me down and made me feel he did not want to help me. This all is my experience, and my opinion. I Had the worst patient experience with a Doctor. In my opinion, the past DEA raid has Dr. Shrunk rattled.

My first visit, he met with me, after an hour and ten minute wait past my appointment time, he was with me for not even 1- minutes. Prescribed me a different RX for depression, changed my prescription for anxiety. I asked his staff and him if they wanted my records from previous doctor I'd been seeing for years before my move to Alabama. All refused said they "didn't need them". No one asked me for blood test or urine test to check my system for drugs. Second visit was changed to sooner one as I was having bad reaction to new one he'd prescribed. One of his staff came in, after 48 minutes past appointment time, and accused me very harshly of being a drug addict. Then I heard her and doctor talking outside the door of office I was in. He entered and was harsh, retelling me what 'she' had stated. I told him I was given 5 pills to hold over until I could get in to see him first time as I would have been out cold-turkey. He left in a huff. Next staffer opened door about 10 minutes later and said I could head up front. I told first one who saw me I had to stop meds he prescribed as bad reaction. Nothing was said by her or him to try a different one. I asked about DNA test given me on first visit, no answer at all about it. I asked him in hall why I was up front. He said to check out. Told him he didn't even talk to me at all. He said, "If you want to talk to need to make appointment with a counselor". I left. I will be reporting this office.
