    Psychiatrist doesn't judge but doesn't bring much insight to your condition. You will do most of personal work.

    He is very willing to provide help to the patient, but the technical side of the video call is lacking.

    I had a very positive experience with Dr Charles. He was calm, patient, and truly listened to everything I was describing. He didn’t rush me, and he explained things clearly in a way that made me feel understood instead of overwhelmed. What stood out to me most was that he took my symptoms seriously, offered thoughtful guidance, and helped me feel reassured. I left the appointment feeling relieved and supported. I would absolutely go back and would recommend him to anyone looking for a psychiatrist who is professional, knowledgeable, and genuinely caring.

    I had a virtual visit with Dr. Charles, and it was an incredibly fast, easy, and effective experience. With the holidays quickly approaching, I appreciated how flexible the follow-up process was. Dr. Charles made me feel confident and cared for throughout the process. Highly recommend.

    For some reason, during an ADHD evaluation, I was asked about my weight. I assumed for medication dosage if I needed it. He told me I was overweight, which I explained that I lift weights and don’t think BMI is accurate. I am very healthy. He said it’ll be a problem as I get older and should weight 105lbs, which is even 20lbs lighter than BMI would suggest. He then prescribed me something I did not agree with, and didn’t really explain the goal or the side effects. He did say it has been used to lose weight, LOL. It was a very uncomfortable experience.
