Ronald Wei, MD — Local services in West Caldwell

This man was, by far, the WORST psychiatrist I've ever been to. I came to him with crippling anxiety caused by postpartum & severe grief from the death of my mother. This man put me on 1 bipolar medication that took 3 months to kick in and because he refused to try putting me on anything else, my "baby-daddy" left me & Dr. Wei discharged me as a patient after only about 6-8 weeks. His words were, "I can't help you so you can't be a patient here anymore." I stayed on the medication he gave me and 4 weeks later it finally kicked in. All this man did was try ONE medication, gave me nothing to cope with the anxiety, even though I called him several times begging for either a different med or, an additional med, so that I could function well enough to care for my newborn child and save my family. Had he tried ANYTHING else, I wouldn't currently be in a custody battle 4 years later. He quit trying and knowing the medication he put me on could take up to 3 months, he didn't even stick around long enough to see if it was enough or whether I needed a higher dose. I was told by a QUALIFIED MD that, usually, people need another mood stabilizer in addition to what he put me on &, putting me on a low dose of a fast-acting anti-anxiety, temporarily, would've helped until the medication was fully functional. He also never informed me that the med he subscribed could also cause a deadly rash & to keep an eye out for any marks. Because of his poor judgement & lack of sympathy and medical expertise, I felt the loss of my mother, rejection by my own psychiatrist AND the loss of my brand new family. He ruined my life 4 years ago and I'm still picking up the pieces. Although, now, I'm doing MUCH MUUUUCH better. I went back to college, I'm going for my BA in Forensic psychology, & because of me, my son is the most polite, caring, affectionate & loving little boy. I'm even looking into sperm donors so that I can have another child & give my son a sibling to play with! So, what ever you do, don't go to this quitter. He could...

I have been to almost every dr.in NJ. No one would diagnose me. The first time I met Dr.Wei he evaluated me for over an hour.He asked me so many questions in detail about my childhood and life and issues and problems. He was typing so fast I realized this guy is brilliant.He was very easy to talk to and very genuine.He finish his evaluation and with his in depth questions he came up w my diagnosis. He changed my meds around and I’m doing great since the day I met him over 4 years ago. They also checked my blood pressure took my temperature and weighed me every single visit. Not only is that smart because I have not ever been to a phycologist that did this before. If you need help with your life the best place to start is by having Dr.Wei as your Dr.Best decision I have made!...

I cannot express enough how thankful I found Dr. Wei. When I started seeing Dr. Wei, I struggled socially to the extent that I had isolated myself throughout high school. Not only did Dr. Wei help me come out of my shell, but he has continued to provide detailed and ongoing support to me for over five years. In addition to pharmacological treatment, Dr. Wei takes his time to talk with me during every appointment. He has given me lifestyle advice and helped guide me through my first breakup, my first year in graduate school, the Law School Admissions Test, and my first year of Law School. Without Dr. Wei, I genuinely do not think I would have been able to be where I am today; a law student who received a scholarship and so much more. I cannot recommend anyone more highly...
