Felt incredibly supported and understood, and most uniquely, not rushed. Clearly Dr. Salvage is genuinely concerned with the wellbeing of his patients. Such a necessary and (sadly) rare asset in this field.

I saw Dr. Salvage for a Ketamine infusion. I had heard about it from a friend and decided to try it. I didn't realize how it felt to live life without depression. I am floating on air right now! I cannot recommend Dr. Salvage more highly. His manner is gentle and he quickly and easily allayed my jitters going in to the treatment. A+ all around!

My appointment had to be rescheduled because the availabilities on ZocDoc were apparently wrong. But the Dr. called me right away to reschedule, and I actually got to seem him a day sooner :)

David is exactly what I was looking for, someone who is very open and actually listens to what you’re saying. His energy and bedside manner are great and I really felt safe speaking about my issues. I would definitely recommend seeing him and will continue to see him myself.

Dr. Salvage was very through in his assessment and took the time to listen and understand my issues. He carefully explained each treatment option available and the benefits of each.

It is rare for me to write a review of the doctor however I felt like this one was a must. Dr. salvage was a pleasure to meet with. His overall demeanor is warm and genuine. He made me feel very comfortable discussing my concerns and needs, and welcomed me to his practice. Very thankful I found him on zoc doc because he is a gem to the psychiatry world.

Dr. Salvage was available immediately and super accommodating. He's a brilliant listener and I really enjoyed our consultation! Very receptive to what I was looking for out of the work. I look forward to more sessions.

Dr. Salvage was a kind and understanding ear- he asked all the right questions that helped me realize certain patterns I'd had, why my mind/body reacted they way it had been, and I left feeling immediately...relieved. I can't believe how much better I'm feeling already and feel so fortunate to have found him and would recommend him in a heartbeat.

Dr Salvage literally made me feel "covered" from the moment I arrived. Covered in the sense of finally being in the care of a seasoned Dr. dedicated to retaining my quality of life. Warm, intelligent, kind spirited and thorough in his craft; Dr Salvage actually educated me on the intricacies of my plight and assured me that I'd be okay. I've found my Doctor. And would absolutely recommend him with flying colors!

Dr. Salvage took the time to call me before my scheduled appointment to assess whether or not he would be the right doctor to address my needs, and he also informed me of the cost of a visit. Although I didn't end up seeing him, I appreciated the fact that he was considerate enough to call me and provide me with the information necessary to make the right decision about seeing him as a patient.

Dr. Salvage saw me right away. We spoke on the phone prior to the appointment so he can ensure we could help.Great doctor! Looking forward to book the next appointment.

Prior to meeting Dr. S, I lived with marginal hope and very limited self confidence. Dr. S carefully, skillfully, and wisely facilitated my return to a world of self-esteem and self management. I am profoundly grateful.

I am a middle aged recovering alcoholic who has been seeing Dr. Salvage for the pas 8 months. I cant imagine where I would be without his help.
