She is very comfortable to talk to and is prompt with her appointments? Nice clean office in her home.

I've had trouble with psychiatrists in the past, but working with Dr. Novak has been wonderful. She is always attentive during our sessions and makes sure that I am a part of my treatment plan. It doesn't feel like I am just being given prescriptions- she lets me speak freely and gives me wonderful advice in return.
