“Most Caring, Extensive Knowledgeable, Dedicated Psychiatrist with immediate communication and compassion. We made a plan & got my medicine prescribed immediately.
> I have been under psychiatric care for 23 years, in just a single session, he showed more genuine care & dedication than anyone.
> His dedication is unlike anything I've experienced. He personally reached out to me before my 1st appointment—spending 40 minutes on the phone ensuring we had a clear, solid plan in place before we even met. After our appt, he continued to touch daily to check on my progress.
> He saved my life. He discovered that I was on a dangerous mix of medications that could have killed me—something no other doctor had ever taken the time to do. made sure medication/dosages were safe.
> Words cannot express how grateful I am for this doctor. I highly recommend him, even if you have a current Psychiatrist, at least book appointment because he is exceptional. I cannot recommend him highly enough ??????????
