More information on payments and coverage
Because we accept insurance, we can reduce out-of-pocket expenses and still offer high-quality care. You may not have any cost related to your visit with us, depending upon your insurance plan. Most patients pay a small copay per visit, subject to any deductible or coinsurance that your health plan has. The Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services determines appropriate billing guidelines. These guidelines depend on the length of the visit and the complexity and severity of your diagnosis. For this reason, we need to wait until after the visit for the final determination. We then submit the claim to your insurance company. The charges are calculated based upon pre-negotiated prices with your insurance company. Your insurance company will then determine what amount, if any, is your responsibility per your insurance plan.

March 17, 2025Angela P.Verified patientVideo visit
Was very personable and asked all appropriate questions to understand my condition and history. Took all my medical history, including that of my parents. Wanted to know how I felt on my current medications and if I thought I needed to
Change anything. She listened to what I had to say and understood what I’ve been going through. In short, I would absolutely recommend Dr. Saad
May 21, 2024Janice S.Verified patientVideo visit
This was my first appointment with Dr. Saad, and after the past four years of bouncing between different psychiatrists & therapists, she was by far the best experience. She was patient, listened closely to my symptoms, asked questions, and made sure to explain each medication she was prescribing thoroughly to make sure I understood what each was meant to do and the reasoning behind prescribing each one. I am excited to continue with her and for the first time, I feel hopeful in my mental health journey!

March 30, 2023Bridget V.Verified patientVideo visit
I would highly recommend Dr. Saad! She was very nice and had a warm demeanor. She spent a long time with me gathering information about my background and symptoms I am experiencing. She broke down the different types of medications and made sure to go over things like side effects, etc. I was definitely nervous about visiting a psychiatrist, but Dr. Saad put my anxiety at ease. She’s truly great!

Dr. Saad was warm, attentive, thoughtful, used appropriate self disclosure where relevant, and helpful. she heard my concerns, asked follow-up questions, and was open to how I wanted to managed my own care. Got much needed answers after a long season of advocacy. Grateful.
August 25, 2022Elise T.Verified patientVideo visit
Dr. Saad listened patiently to my concerns and walked me through a clearer understanding of my medications than I'd previously had. She's very personable, experienced, clear, and sympathetic. I feel like she took the time to learn about my medical/mental health history in depth; I never felt rushed during the appointment. It's next to impossible to find a great psychiatrist in NYC, and I'm delighted to have found her!
July 21, 2022Erin S.Verified patientVideo visit
Dr. Saad is fantastic. She is an amazing listener, and really tries to understand why your there. Not once did I feel like I was wrong for seeking help, or that I didn't actually need it. Would and will recommend her to other people seeking psychiatric help.
