“I love Amy, I worked with her at a previous practice and tracked her down when she left. She’s been the most responsive psychiatric practitioner I’ve worked with in my 15 year mental health journey. She’s personable, really listens and takes your feedback into account to find what works best for you. I always feel like she truly cares and each appointment is like talking to a friend. I highly recommend her!”

“Before I found Aimee, I cycled through one provider after another for years. They were all just checking the boxes. With Aimee, it's obvious she cares. She is devoted to her patients and generous with her time. So when she started her own practice, following her was a no-brainer. Highly recommended.”

Aimee is amazing, as someone who finds it extremely difficult to chat with people she makes it awfully easy.

Aimee is amazing, she listens and adjusts as needed without judgement, which is something I really appreciate as a queer woman! I’ve been working with her for years and really feel like she cares about me and my health. She’s very knowledgeable and I appreciate how she’ll lay out my options without pushing me towards a plan or medication I may not be comfortable with. I really appreciate all she does!!

Most unprofessional Dr. I’ve ever met. Absolutely a mess!! Forgets stuff, doesn’t follow up… You have to beg for stuff to be done as promised… Incredible! I don’t think I’ve ever encountered anything like that!
There are no more words!!!
