Do not book with Albeheary unless you’re fine waiting at least an hour after appt time to be seen. Staff is disorganized and rude. Sessions with her last less than 15 mins but I was billed each time for the full hour.
More than 1 year agoInitials hiddenVideo visit
Never again with this psychiatrist. Routinely well over an hour late for appointments, spends maybe 15 minutes taking with patient but surely bills the full hour. Refused to refill my prescriptions once I lost insurance and couldn’t see her in the office. Extremely unethical doctor and clearly only in it for the money. STAY AWAY

An incredibly frustrating experience, which traumatized me and made me reluctant to seek psychiatric help afterwards. Dr. Albeheary’s bedside manner was atrocious, and I didn’t feel listened to at all. I was recommended antidepressants i didn’t need, rather than addressing the concern I had come in there for, which was the ADHD that lead to my depression. The Dr. (who I had met 10 minutes prior) finished our session by blaming me for the separation of my parents, because I smoked weed. I hope she’s gotten better in the time since.

Dr. Albeheary is very direct in trying to help you. However, like most psychiatrists, there main method for healing is medicine. Obviously this is something I wish I knew a little earlier, but if you are looking for talk therapy, this is not the right place for you. Doctor is very quick to diagnose and put you on a medication plan. However, I felt it was a little too quick. Doctor is nice, direct, but also stern. If you are need of instant help, this may be the place for you.

Great doctor. The staff should just go live under a rock though. Rudest most unprofessional people I have ever dealt with. I literally got better help from chimps at a zoo. Congrats you peaked in life at being able to answer a phone. Can't even do that one correctly though. Move on and let people see this doctor. It is not our faults you are miserable.

Again a loop into being held on a leash because it’s fun for the doctor and unless you are using cannabis. You will have a hard time. Unfortunately video visits aren’t easy to find and only a few doctors to choose from.
Not a good long term commitment. A set up into losing your mind unless you have no life problems and just want to hang. I find it sad when people choose to make money of others’ suffering or off of others’ sufferings. Don’t believe the hype.

My first meeting with Dr. Ghada went very well. It was on video and she connected withing 5 minutes of our meeting time. I feel she cared about my health. And answered my questions in a way that was easy to understand. The audio quality of the video call made it a little hard to hear and had to ask her to repeat herself a few times but nothing that would make me give a negative review.
I will definitely keep going back to her!

Dr. Albeheary is one of the best psychiatrists around. She's thorough, extremely helpful & explains everything in great detail. Would highly recommend her to anyone in the Chicagoland area!

Was able to have a telemedicine visit with prompt scheduling- I appreciate the accommodation! Initially had some trouble connecting but the office staff helped. I was a new patient so had to do the registration papers online. Office sent me a pdf by email- I would suggest getting a trial of Adobe Acrobat to fill it out on your computer. The doctor provided efficient care and took a thorough history. I will be returning.

She didn't take the time to learn anything about me, was very quick to make me feel extremely judged. Seems like all she wants to do is write prescriptions. Sad and discouraging.

My visit with Dr. Albeheary was prompt, efficient, and compassionate. I left the appointment knowing she had my best interest in mind. She provided a clear treatment plan and plan for follow-up. She answered all of my questions clearly and seemed genuinely invested in helping me improve my quality of life. Thank you!

Dr. Albeheary is inconsiderate, impatient, and blatantly dismissive. Please do not go to her. It seems that she pushes a specific brand of medicine onto everyone and disregards and negates an concerns her patients have. You’ll be waiting for a full hour only to see her for about 3 minutes.
March 23, 2020Initials hidden
She is very attentive and easy to talk to. Would recommend to anyone seeking a professional doctor who genuinely cares about her patients.

Dr Albeheary is a very knowledgeable doctor. She is very smart and professional. I was so fearful to change doctors but was so happy I did. She is 100 times better than my last doctor.

Dr. Albeheary is an amazing doctor. She is very calming and her puppy is like a little therapy dog. She is changing my life for the better and so glad I found her.
February 14, 2020Initials hidden
I would not recommend her for anyone who is a bit more guarded/tight-lipped and needs some prodding to start a conversation; she didn't lead any discussion, so I couldn't really get much out of the appointment. However, she did mention that she does not have set time-limits for appointments, so she might be a good choice for people who have a lot on their mind/know exactly what they want to discuss.

I’ve been struggling with ADHD and depression since I’m currently pregnant. I went off of my medications for ADHD and depression because of it. My husband saw her for an appointment and said there was a medication for my ADHD I could take while pregnant. Since everything has side effects and risks I came to her for possible safer alternative options. But she completely disregarded my concerns and claimed, “ Who is the doctor? Me or you? Who has seen countless patients? Adderal is the safest medication you can take.”

I would highly recommend Dr Albeheary. I found her assistant to be extremely helpful and quick. Dr Albeheary listened to my problems and immediately provided me with a solution. She also showed she cared about me as a new patient by wanting a follow up visit to check on me. I will be visiting again and highly recommend her to others.

I NEVER write reviews- I understand people have bad days, and are human. I just hate rating people in general. With that said—The secretaries(receptionists) in this office are the most insanely rude, and inconsiderate people I’ve ever dealt with. They are condescending and just unhelpful. It’s honestly sad how they treat people.
More than 1 year agoInitials hidden
While Dr. Ghada is pleasant and professional, her secretaries are not. They insist that you reschedule and claim that she is booked out for months, even when this is clearly not the case according to Zocdoc schedule. Be prepared to pay astronomical no-show fees and bring cash as they don’t accept Debit/Credit.

I feel like she was asking the right questions to help me pin point my anxiety and the best treatment. The session was short but efficient.
