This was an experience that was a waste of time. This doctor did not provide me with any help that could help me mentally and charged me money even-though he states he took my insurance.

Great dr.
April 28, 2018Roger O.Verified patient
It was my first time in therapy and I was pleasantly surprised with how comfortable Dr. Kalman made me feel. Walking out of the first appointment I felt like I had already made reflections I hadn’t otherwise realized before. I will definitely return to continue progressing with Dr. Kaplan’s great bedside manner.
More than 1 year agoInitials hidden
Our conversation was a bit stilted and awkward, and I felt his comments/interpretations were more general rather than a direct response to my case. He did seem kind and attentive though, so maybe someone else will find him a better fit.

First session, I was not paired up with Dr. Khodik. I had someone who was still great. It was nerve-racking, but Dr. Pasternak always tried to make me feel as comfortable as she could. It was extremely easy talking to her. I definitely look forward to the second session!!
March 29, 2018Jazmin S.Verified patient
I didn’t mesh with Dr. Khodik during the initial session. He made some assumptions about me without knowing me that made me uncomfortable. Maybe he is good for others, but it wasn’t a good match for me.
February 14, 2018Aaron D.Verified patient
I am a long time therapy goer and was VERY happy to meet Dr. Khodik. We agreed to meet a couple more times to make sure that it's a mutual good fit before committing to a weekly treatment, which is what I am looking for. It was a first session, but I can say he is smart, attentive, organized and caring. Highly recommend.

Great, I think he is very knowledgeable in his domain of expertise. Very nice and listened carefully to my past experiences.
Wait to see the next meetings.
January 27, 2018Roger O.Verified patient

Dr. Khodik came off as brusque and short-tempered from the first phone call, when he gave me 5 hours (mostly in the evening) to respond before threatening to cancel my appointment which was in 2 days. I attended despite the trepidation that this caused, and while the session felt rather tense we were making progress until the issue of billing came up. He was absolutely insistent on my paying immediately, which I was hesitant to do given the complications of insurance billing procedures. He then got quite worked up and accused me of wanting to 'stiff him' for simply stating that I had an HSA and would cover the bill when it was received. The experience was extremely sour. Never again.

Good visit today. Very open and honest.

I didn't know what to expect and honestly didn't really want to go in the first place. Dr. Khodik set me at ease very quickly with how relaxed yet professional he was. I look forward to our next conversation.
thanks doc!

Wonderful listener, really good first appointment and looking forward to going back. Dr. Kalman is welcoming, warm and only feeds back once he really understands a situation.
July 8, 2017Adam K.Verified patient
It was not great and I felt a bit uncomfortable because of some awkward silences. He Wasn't good at being warm or making me feel comfortable. I also think he sees so many different people It felt like he was just repeating typical psycho babble. Not for me.

I wanted to see a psychiatrist and accidentally booked a psychologist who could not prescribe me my medication. It was completely my fault and a total misunderstanding. It was however a great session and I would continue to see the Dr. Khodik if I were in the market for a therapist but I'm not as of present.

Dr. Khodik listens patiently and without bias, and guides you to self-discovery in a relaxed environment. I find the sessions to be very positive and cathartic.
November 18, 2016Abigail Y.Verified patient
Unfortunately, what I thought was a "Free Consultation" turned into a paid session due to insurance deductible. Bummer... Will have to keep looking.
October 31, 2016Luke J.Verified patient
He made a point to start off the appointment (our first) with 30 minutes of talking out the issues I've perceived. This is in contrast to many who may spend the introductory time dealing with insurance details and/or paperwork.
More than 1 year agoInitials hidden
Dr. Khodik is great. I've seen several different therapists in my past, but Dr. Khodik is the first to make me feel very comfortable during our sessions. I look forward to our appointments. If I could, I'd recommend him to all my friends and family (but I think that would be a conflict of interest lol)

The elevator wasn't working in the building and had to walk about four flights of stairs, but didn't mind because I love a great workout. Dr. was polite and I want to return again, to find out that he has no available appointment's what a bummer.
April 14, 2016Tamika M.Verified patient
Was not willing to make an effort to treat me and fit me into his schedule even though I am in great need of help. ....As per his own evaluation.
March 17, 2016Lilia V.Verified patient
Dr Khodik was very professional and sympathetic, I really appreciate the fact that he spent some extra time with me to finish up my first visit. It made me very comfortable that and I can speak to him in two languages to deliver best illustration of the problem. Very pleasant experience.
