“Dr. Leyba was absolutely perfect. Usually I go through maybe 2/3 Dr's before I find the perfect match but he was so kind, so considerate, understanding and much more. He took the time to get to know me for me and let me ask as many questions I wanted and never rushed me. It was literally the best experience I have ever had. He truly is one of a kind and genuinely cares about you. Learns who you are and everything. Nothing negative what so ever. 10/10 highly recommend( and with me that is very hard to come by).”

Together, we can explore what’s been troubling you and collaborate on a personalized plan tailored to your unique needs.
I prescribe effective medications while also providing motivation and encouragement. I specialize in helping clients with conditions such as anxiety, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder, OCD, PTSD, grief, and sleep disturbances. I can perform ADHD evaluations and prescribe ADHD medications when appropriate.

I was recommended by a friend to see Dr. Leyba after I was discussing some mental health concerns. Very grateful for the recommendation! I have only seen a psychiatrist one other time and the difference is huge. Dr. Leyba was attentive and kind helping squash any prior fears I had going into this. He's very knowledgeable and even gave some alternatives to help after I got evaluated. His explanation of how the medication works was easy to understand and helped me feel more confident in my next step. I didn't feel like I was going into taking new medication blind. Thanks so much!

Dr. Ed is both professional and understanding. He blends his personal life experience with clinical expertise, making it easy to build rapport and find common ground. He took the time to go through my history and concerns thoroughly, and not once did I feel rushed or that he was anything but genuine. If you're looking for help, I highly recommend reaching out. And if you're unsure which doctor to choose, you can feel confident that Dr. Ed is an excellent choice!

I cannot say enough good things about Dr. Ed. He's professional, personable, and made it easy to open up about my mental health, and in a way where I never felt judged. You can tell Dr. Ed loves his profession and truly cares about his patients. Oh, and he does a great job of explaining "the why" and educating his patients. I'm excited to be an established patient of his now.
