Dr. Samton was one of the most qualified doctors I have ever meet. She is brilliant and kind. She helped me work through many of my problems in just a short amount of time. She is one of those people who you are better off after you have met them. When being treated by Dr. Samton, I had a sense that she entirely wanted to help me - a feeling I don't often feel. I highly recommend Dr. Samton to all.

I could not have been more pleased with Dr. Samton. She is incredibly perceptive, bright, insightful and through provoking. In short she is by far the best psychiatrist I have ever seen and could ever hope to find.

I feel tremendously lucky to have found Dr. Samton. After our initial consultation I knew I had found the right person to help me with my anxiety. She is not only clearly a brilliant doctor (double boarded in neurology and psychiatry), she is caring, compassionate and empathetic. I've always been a bit skeptical about seeking mental health care, but after just our first meeting I was able to walk away feeling calmer knowing that I was in such capable hands. I wish I had contacted her sooner!

Thank you for helping me find Dr. Samton. She is smart, compassionate, and caring. She is easy to talk to and I felt understood. I trust that she will help me, in fact, I already feel better.

Dr Samton is a true professional and I would not hesitate to recommend her to my family members, friends or anyone else lucky enough to find her. In fact, I already have. She really takes the time to listen and obviously cares deeply about her patients. Yet she also cuts quickly to the chase with a clear and direct plan. I feel hopeful for the first time in a long time and I am so grateful that there are still doctors like her out there. Thank you!!!
