I'm putting this out as Dr. James Kates is a very unprofessional and unqualified Psychiatrist. He is verbally and emotionally abusive with no sensitivity to his patients or most. My younger brother who I'll only refer to as "Matt" was a patient of Dr. Kates. My brother would often come home from his visits with Dr. Kates in a much more depressed and agitated state. It was clear to the family that Dr. Kates was only causing Matt to become much worse in his illness. It all came to a head when Matt paged Dr. Kates one night through the service of Seacoast Mental Health Centers on Portsmouth, and Exeter, New Hampshire. My brother was in a acutely suicidal state. After the phone call Matt was much worse saying that Dr. Kates wasn't taking him seriously and that my brother was only seeking attention. My brother even confided in me that Dr. Kates told him if he truly wanted to die then he would die. I was very worried but I regrettably let my brother go to him room thinking that he would go to sleep and feel better when he woke up. This is very hard to write as you can imagine. The next morning when I woke up I went to check in on my brother. When I look in on him I found he wasn't breathing. I saw a empty bottle of his psychotropic medication. The reports said he passed from a acute overdose. It was ruled a suicide, but myself and everyone who knew my brother Matt knows Dr. Kates abusive treatment towards him played a major role in his unfortunate death. All those in the Psychiatric community and all his patients are all being notified of this sick tragedy. We hope Dr. Kates and I use the term doctor very loosely gets his medical license revoked. He has no business being around people much less those who are mentally ill.

Regrettably, Victoria.
