The most unpleasant experience I’ve had with a doctor. I found her unfriendly, dismissive, cynical, bordering on rude, and the near eye rolls were something else. She could barely hide or hold back her contempt. I was shocked! Absolutely wrong profession when dealing with someone seeking help or at least understanding. This doctor had no compassion or bedside manner, just attitude. though i imagine she thinks she has the patient summed up as neurotic when she fails to find obvious answers to explain the symptoms, and treats them accordingly. Nearly laid a formal complaint.

We had a poor experience with this doctor. Very pushy, very narrow minded and very annoying - doctors need to learn to listen to parents input. Would not recommend this man at all

Showed absolutely no empathy, and is not qualified at all with CPTSD and retraumatised me with her cold and cruel exchanges behind closed doors. I will never go back as I have made complaints with management before and nothing is remembered the next time I visit and the same thing happens, I am not listened to, looked at like I am dirt and made to feel like I am a burden to society, while this woman is in charge of my life with a flick of a pen( I need her consent on paper to say I am not ready to work yet)I am making real progress with weekly therapy sessions, and am not ready for paid employment yet. Dr Regina told me in her office that sometimes you have to push yourself to work and she put on paper that I can work in 3 months...dangerous trigger to a person like me. Long story short, I had a relapse of my symptoms temporarily, and disassociated, which set my progress back. I am currently in process of looking for a Dr with a good understanding of severe childhood traumas and when I am in a better place, I will be taking legal action against Dr Cabuang personally for damages and not through the NZ medical Board as they do Jack #hit. As Dr Cabuang emigrated here in New Zealand in 2008 from Manila, Phillipines, I can probably assume that her culture may also have not have taught western types of trauma patterns. Anyway, I hope I help someone who reads this from pain, and avoid this Dr at all costs if you need a caring, kind Doctor.
