Caudill Fred M Md

Dr Caudill quite literally saved my life and increased my quality of life by a thousand percent. The first time I saw him in 2004 he said ""So, I read your file.""....really? a doctor who reads your whole file before your first appointment?! He was able to pick up on issues and determine I had been mis-diagnosed for 8.5 years! With one med trial he was able to find a med that worked for my issues (Seroquel) and my quality of life began to improve dramatically....Seven years later I am still stable, I still see him and I wouldnt change psychiatrists for anything!\r Yes, it can take some time to get into his schedule as a new patient, but you wont be sorry. He is incredibly intelligent and approachable and very knowledgable as well....He doesnt rest on his laurels, he stays current with issues and medications; I feel very safe trusting my brain to this excellent Doctor. more

I was referred to Dr. Caudill about 6 years ago and it took a few months to get in to see him but was well worth it. He shoots from the hip while being open to suggestions at the same time. Doesn't talk down to you and makes you feel very comfortable. He's just a likable guy and extremely intelligent. I've referred 2 other people to him that finally got correct diagnoses/meds. What an asset to this community and I don't know what I'd do without him! He is THAT great of a doctor! He's truly changed my life. more

You can talk to this man. He listens. He doesn't serve up a bunch of shrink talk. Talks straight from the shoulder. more

Straight talker who doesn't pull punches. No baby steps here. Smart as heck. You don't always get what you want, but if you try sometime, you get what you need!!! Like the guy very much. more

I came to Dr Caudill with alot of issues and on the wrong medications. In just 3 months he has fixed me right up. I feel very lucky to have a great doctor that cares. He has returned my calls quickly and I have never had to wait more than 10min. I fill better just knowing he is there or just a phone call away. Pros: I trust him and take his word on it more

First time ever to a psychiatrist. He is very easy to talk to, he'll listen to you, he'll respond and he doesn't try to talk over your head. He did a great job of diagnosing me and putting me on meds that didn't make me feel ""foggy."" He realized his job was to make me better and not to put me in a coma. I really like him and would encourage anyone to see him. The only complaint is sometimes you have to wait a while to get in when you have an appointment. Other than that one small thing he is really great. Pros: Very attentive, nice, and knoledgeable. Cons: Longer wait time than there should be in waiting room, can be a little tough to find them more
