Delta North Mental Health

Dr Haque has been so so helpful. He trusted me to start Vivance for my adhd and it changed my world. School has become possible and my overall happiness is 3x better. I have smoked so much weed in my life and with Vivance I dont even need it anymore.Dr Jay and I clashed since day one but I wish him well. Advice dealing with him is to be honest and if you are using substances just try very hard to make him understand WHY you do it.If you read this Dr. Jay I'm sorry for my actions that made the relationship not work. And thank you for caring about my mother.Delta mental health was incredibly patient with me early on in my adult life. Without them I might not be here.Dr. Jay is a good man that wants to help. He helped me greatly. The social workers are great. I'm lucky to have had all of them

Dr. Jay has been very helpful to us. He really cares about his patient and would remind us to treat his patient accordingly .My wife has been seeing him for many years. He and his assistant came to our house in the night to evaluate my wife's serious condition and I am very thankful for that . I was at work that night. He has helped us getting disability insurance .I think its certainly unfair of people making comments about his professionalism. However each person has his own way of diagnosing and I respect that.

Everyone here is fine except the psychiatrist Dr. Jay (?). Every time I see him, I feel as though he has no empathy for patients. I was called today at 9am for an appointment that was supposed to be for the next day at 4pm, then berated me for not picking up my medication yet when I have no idea where the prescription was sent to. I was then lectured by him about how it was my responsibility to go pick up a physical copy in my free time (which I told him I quite literally don't have being a full time student working full time), and that he doesn't chase patients". Who says that to someone struggling with mental health and basic tasks already?? The people who run the DBT group here are fantastic but please avoid seeing the psychiatrist at any cost."

Dr. Jay was polite and very to the point, as we were going through my life events he talked over me a couple times but I said that I was starting to feel a bit upset that I might not be being heard and he stopped and said okay tell me what you want to say" and let me go off and made sure to ask if I had any more questions or if there was anything else I wanted from the meeting at the end.He's a psychiatrist

The old social worker was great very helpful but the new social worker does not help at all, this is the worst place to be seen you’re better of going somewhere else. Dr Jay does not caring about any concerns when giving medication zero empathy!

Dr. Jay wasn't the most pleasant guy. Waited 6 months for this appointment and I was immediately given a referral to another practice, makes me wonder why he needed me to drive in and sit on his couch when he was making a decision based on my intake forms that I filled out. Frustrating that this is what i was waiting for. He seemed to really fixate on whether i drink or use drugs which I found odd. I think that I would be more successful and empathetic at what he does than him and I have extreme anxiety and ADHD.**Update** i got a call from the referral he sent me to and there is another year and a half wait list. Also they told me that it is impossible after a 45 min appointment for someone to diagnose me with a personality disorder. This guy seems like a charlotton.. I do NOT recommend.

Had an appointment with Dr Jay he seemed more interested in my cannabis use (recently quit) and that my anxiety was only because of that. Sounded angry and uninterested in what I had to say. Also didnt show up for ZOOM meeting called me about 20 mins late. Could barely hear or understand what he was saying.Had a PANIC ATTACK within hours of talking to him. I was feeling positive about the meeting but left me feeling hopeless and as if no medical professional would care or take me seriously.Counselor seemed friendly and helpful but Dr Jay only seems interested in closing my file.Dr. Jay please find a new profession you berk

The counsellors and group meetings were great, but Dr. Jay (the psychiatrist) has got to be the worst doctor I have ever met in my entire life. When I was at my worst he showed no sympathy, was always so rude to me and my mother. He would even harass me. One time he even told me and my mom “I don’t know what you two are up to”, as if we were coming up with a scheme. When I was at my worst with my OCD and anxiety, I had problems with needing to hear things being repeated and one time when I asked if he could repeat something for me he responded saying “you should leave now”. I am 100% better now thanks to another psychiatrist who took over for Dr. Jay while he was gone on vacation. I will never forget the way Dr. Jay treated me.

Seen an intake worker about 3 weeks ago and she sent me to see Dr Jay. How this guy still has a license is beyond me. I've never felt so little and insignificant in my life. Totally unprofessional to be treating people with mental illness that way. Update August 8th: I was told by the intake worker that I was going to be able to talk to a counselor during my intake. I received a call on August 3rd saying that they were going to close my account based on Dr. Jay's recommendation. I was told by my family doctor today that if I feel helpless and hopeless for me to go into the hospital which will be the equivalent of flipping Delta Mental Health off. It's pretty bad that you need to go into the hospital to get the help you need.

The mediators for the therapy groups are great but unfortunately that is the only thing great about this place. Dr Jay had me leaving his office feeling confused, upset and verbally abused. I have never had such a horrible experience had with a psychiatrist in my life by far. Incredibly rude and unprofessional, you will get no help with him, only more trauma. Joyce the intake worker walks on eggshells when speaking to myself and I'm sure others of north delta mental health as well. She exhibits an impatience and lack of understanding or willingness to communicate effectively with members of the facility. She is far too old to be involved in mental health anymore, please put someone younger, more positive and behaves like he or she actually enjoys being there helping patients. To me it seems to me she is just riding out that nice Fraser Health pension till she's 65. Stay far away from this place.
