What should a new client know about working with you?
At Emerald Psychiatry & TMS Center we do not prescribe Benzodiazepines to patients. If patients are currently taking Benzodiazepines, they must be willing to taper off the medication and our providers will prescribe a new medication in its place.
Please note, 15 minutes before your scheduled appointment you will receive a link from our online appointment platform, Doxy. You will need to click on the link and allow your camera and sound. This will take you to your virtual waiting room to meet your provider.

Best doctor by far I have ever seen. I’ve never had a doctor actually listen to me the way he did. It was so wonderful.

He listened to my needs
April 18, 2023Alexis R.Verified patientVideo visit
Ben was very personable and I felt safe and that I could share anything with him. He related things I was sharing to possible effects in my life that need to be worked through. Ben also was open to my ideas as well as me sharing my faith as a big coping skill in my life. I feel like he will make a huge impact in my life and healing journey just from our first visit. I would 10/10 recommend him to anyone looking for a new med dr.
