Dr. Bhatt explains another cause of mental health misdiagnosis as patients being given an incorrect diagnosis in the past and are essentially labeled in future evaluations. He explains: “Patients who were previously diagnosed ended up often being treated solely on their self-reported “past psychiatric history” without any attempt by the physician to explore and elicit the appropriate criteria warranting such a diagnosis and ultimate treatment, which only can be done by conducting a thorough diagnostic psychiatric interview. So essentially, they are stamped and labeled with their previous often self reported inaccurate diagnoses and then additional diagnoses are added on by various providers solely on the history of presenting symptoms or illness without “truly diagnosing them”. It is a conveyor belt of sorts, assembling a trail of misdiagnoses and inappropriate treatment.” Legacy Healing Center- Drug & Alcohol Rehab 1690 South Congress Ave Suite 202 A Delray Beach, FL 33445 (954) 420-7414 https://www.google.com/maps?cid=13798921045472671720 https://gmbtool.page.link/wFr7
