She was very kind and patient.
Dr. Hamd is one of the best mental health professionals I have seen. She took the time to learn as much as she could about me, and because of that was able to give me the right diagnosis and treatment. She is kind, funny, and my appointments with her are always a joy. One of my favorite things about her is that she takes me incredibly seriously- and does not let me downplay or feel silly about anything bothering me. She's helped my improve my life and mental health more than I ever thought was possible, and I am incredibly thankful for her.

Very understanding.

After a few good visits, it became apparent this practice is laughably backwards. Don't expect your messages or voicemails to be listened to, let alone your issues. As an adult, being berated by a clueless disorganized and despondent doctor is offensive. As a child, damaging. I wouldn't trust my children to see her, don't trust yours.
Terrible I will never go back to her!!
She was very understanding, listened to my symptoms, and went over on how to deal with them. I feel I can trust her and that she can help me.
Doctor Hamd was wonderful. She clearly know the medicines available and was excellent in discussing the different options with me. She didn't at any point make me feel ashamed or embarassed, it seemed like she just wanted to help. I will definitely be going back.
Dr. Hamdheydari made me feel comfortable instantly, her office is beautiful and registration was easy. I had to look all over CT to find a new provider with her specialties and am incredibly happy my search is over now. I would highly recommend her to anyone in need.

Dr Hamd saw me for my initial consultation and she took her time, asked good questions and responded to my answers. She was genuinely interested!
Ladan Hamd (Hamdheydari), MD was very accommodating. She listened attentively, addressed concerns, and fully explained the course of treatment. I feel like I am in great hands with her as my medical professional.
Had a great experience appointment was seen on time. Provider addressed all of our needs. Ease of scheduling was great as well as the text reminder of the appointment and the follow-up. My son really like the Dr and she made him feel comfortable.
Late for appointment didn't know my name by end of session. Didn't read why I was there and offered no support other than prescription
She was very professional and helpful.
Excellent doctor. I've never really been inspired to write reviews before, but I'm grateful and pleased to have the chance to do so for Dr. Hamdheydari. When the only psychiatrist I had seen retired a while back, I was okay with just seeing my primary when necessary...until anxiety resurfaced in my life. I was reluctant to have to go about finding a new psychiatrist, but I'm so thankful to have found Dr. Hamd. I've seen her twice now, and I couldn't be happier. She has many great qualities: very knowledgeable, friendly and pleasant, professional, caring, and very helpful...also nice office, very easy parking, and easy to find. I would definitely recommend Dr. Hamd to anyone.
She examined me. Listened well in our initial interview and prescribed me meds. I'm doing better a week later and can't wait to talk with her again. Please don't think twice about using her to help you. Take it from a broken depressed, anxious, recoding addict who thinks no one can help me. I believe me meeting with her is helping me in my recovery and my help to fix my mental issues. Take it from a self described lost cause. See her.
Dr. Hamd is very sweet and understanding of your needs and takes all of your thoughts and questions into consideration when constructing the best plan for your mental health! Highly recommend her for my family and people I care about.
She knows what she is doing and is great in that sense, but she does not seem really interested in what you have to say. She just wants to give you meds and send you on your way.
Very kind and knowledgeable.
Dr. Hamdheydari was patient and kind, but also willing to ask probing follow up questions to get background on what you're talking about. She seems genuinely interested in figuring out how to help and what the source of your problems are.
I have been a patient of Dr. Hamd for over a year now. She is always very professional and accommodating. I arrived an hour early for a scheduled appointment today and instead of making me wait she was able to squeeze me in between other appointments which allowed me to get to work on time. The staff is friendly and the office is easy to access on the first floor of the building. There is always plenty of parking within steps of the main entrance.
Goodlistener, diligent, love her!
She was very pleasant to talk to, but also very straight to the point in determining her assessment in our conversation. She say me right away, I could tell she is quite diligent.
Fantastic doctor, and so easy to talk to.
She was wonderful at performing an initial consultation and her willingness to discuss my research on a new possibility for my diagnosis made me feel like my opinions mattered. She even found me a PCP doctor!! I highly recommend.
Awesome!
My son had an appointment and was very comfortable with Dr. Hamd. He was relieved to find someone who can relate to his Anxiety and be so thorough. We are very pleased with this doctor.
