this isn't really about him. One thing I didn't really appreciate was said he didn't have any information about me before the appointment.

Was disappointed that he had not reviewed my wife's file notes before our meeting. It might have given him the opportunity develop medication alternatives prior to our meeting

Dr. Ahn is a good listener. He explained his understanding of what was going on as I talked about my long term depression. I agree with his conclusion that I seek treatment for sleep apnea before trying to treat my depression.

He is strictly medication focused and somewhat exasperated that I refuse to take antidepressants. But he is also much younger than I. As far as my problems I don't see any connection.

When I tell him about my struggles with a certain problem, he doesn't try to analyze the cause or consider solutions. He just listens. I want him to be more proactive.
