“Dr. Femi was great. I know finding mental health therapy in East Tennessee can be imitimidating, to say the least. I waited 18 months to resume mental health treatment after moving from Texas, due to poor treatment by hospital staff at a certain hospital. After my anxiety and panic attacks became unmanageable and started effecting my life and family life, I took a chance on Dr. Femi. I can't imagine if I had waited. He is thorough, he is direct. He really wanted to get to the root of my issues, not treat me as a patient number. If you are struggling, reach out to this Man. He was immediately accessible, despite his heavy work load. He fit me in, and called in my medications the same night. I don't usually leave reviews. I am leaving this review because I feel I owe it to him, but more importantly, because I think it could help someone in crisis. Dr. Femi is someone who can help you. Give yourself a chance. I wish I would have contacted him months ago. You have a right to mental health.”

More information on payments and coverage

Payment is due after each session and will be charged with your card on file for any portion of patient responsibility. Receipts will be provided at the time of the charge. This typically takes place 2-4 weeks after the session, once your insurance has had a chance to process the claim. We try our best to verify eligibility, but it is ultimately your responsibility to check coverage and out-of-pocket costs for services. For out-of-network visits, you will be billed at the provider’s self-pay rate, and we can provide an invoice for you to submit to your insurance for potential out of-network reimbursement based on your plan’s benefits.

Dr. Olarubofin is wonderful! I was nervous before my appointment, but he made me feel welcomed and at ease. He took his time getting to know my history. He is informative and compassionate. I'm looking forward to continuing my treatment with him.

Dr. Femi is amazing! I’ve never felt so comfortable immediately with any other Dr. He followed up with me after hours to ensure I received my medications. When I had an issue at the pharmacy, I sent a text. He responded immediately and resolved my issue. This is unheard of these days with any Dr. I’ll never see anyone but him! So thankful to have found him.

Dr. Femi was direct, to the point, had great answers to questions, knew exactly what I needed, and made suggestions that gave me confidence in my treatment plan and the future success of my treatment. It was very refreshing to be able to speak with no judgement of my issues and with no doubt that my doctor would be able to find a solution. Great great great!!
I am really glad that I picked him. He was a Godsend!!! I really felt like he allowed me to express myself. And he was still very clinical with excellent bedside manner. He is very solution oriented, and I feel like he is going to help me to move out of this dark place. If you are truly looking for someone that will listen to you and diagnose you this is the Dr for you. Look no further. He is intelligent, Solution oriented, open minded and warm. Thank you
I am so impressed with this doctor. He went above and beyond me, and he made me ill illnesses way more than I did before I’ve seen him. This field is his true passion! I hope to always be able to see him :)
