Report
The WORST. Takes his Harvard John Hopkins White Privileged Male Attitude to entire new heights. He is deceitful and non-transparent. His Unsolicited Diagnosis are so Off The chart it is a wonder to how Hall stays in business, He is loyal only to his pocketbook, not medicine. He lines his pockets deep with wealthy employers using the title of "Forensic Psychiatrist." His persona and motive are questionable at best, and he misrepresents whatever you tell him. Hall asks questions which are irrelevant and concerning If your employer sends you to him, beware. He doesn't represent ANY kind of medicine, just his money.
