Chinyere was very informative, attentive, and easy to talk to. I felt comfortable throughout the appointment and appreciated how well she listened. I’m looking forward to continuing my care with her.

Excellent communicater, made me fell comfortable, knowledgeable regarding PTSD and panic disorder. I felt like I was being listened to.
January 16, 2026Monica N.Verified patientVideo visit
She questioned whether I had ADHD because I scored low on the lil questionnaire she gave me. Idk, maybe I don’t struggle with that as much since I’m on meds? Plus, she waited til after her shift to send my prescriptions for some reason? I’m already at the pharmacy, 15 minutes til it closes, assuming she sent them right away like all the other psychs I’ve had. So don’t go to her if you need your meds right away.

I highly recommend her. This was my first session with a psychiatrist and I’m so glad I chose Dr. Chi. She made me feel seen and made me very comfortable. She went above and beyond even before our appointment.There was a mix up with my insurance coverage and instead of canceling my appointment, she reached out to me and helped resolve the mix up. I look forward to our future appointments.

Appointment was the next day I needed it. Called me and emailed that day I made the appointment regarding forms and any confusion, making sure that my first appointment would be regarding my issues. Offered great recommendations during the appointment. Did not make me feel awkward or uncomfortable when explaining history.

My are person is kind and knowledgeable. But I can’t find an easy way to contact her. It might just be me but I need to have a really accessible way to get her. My condition makes it hard to recall information.
