Dr Tusken was exceptionally honest. While we decided not to work together I very much appreciated her straightforward and 100% honest approach.

I’ve been jumping from psychiatrist to psychiatrist for the last 7 years looking for a good, knowledgeable, thorough doctor again. Dr. Tusken is exactly that and more.

June 18, 2024Sara W.Verified patientVideo visit
Terrible. She should only be booked for a very specific niche of patient. She couldn’t handle (nor did she want to deal with) the “complexity” of my issues.

December 5, 2023Peter V.Verified patientVideo visit
Megan stood out amongst the 4-5 psychiatrists I’ve seen in the past few years. She was exceptionally warm, empathetic, intelligent, and holistic in her approach. I felt for the first time a provider that understands and caters to my narrative, rather than shoehorning me into a framework.
November 6, 2023Thien C.Verified patientVideo visit
I think its odd that Talkiatry reviews all the patient's information and then denies providing care (based on their standard of telepsychiatry). The consultation last 20-25 minutes where the doctor said that I was too complicated for telepsychiatry. Shouldnt she have received all the paperwork that I submitted to Talkiatry before the appointment to see if I was an "eligible" patients. Literally, I was baffled when she said that they only treat simple cases. Then why does they have a screener for psychosis and other more complicated cases. I think that honestly Talkiatry to just treat depression and anxiety, as they cant handle more complicated cases. The reality is real psychiatrist know how to handle all types of cases or will reference information if they truly care. You say explicit that you treat ADHD, Bipolar Disorder, PTSD, Depression, OCD, children. So why would you advertise that when you dont follow through? Very disappointed and will find a better quality psychiatrist.

Dr. Tusken really cares and listens. Most importantly she is open minded and gives you multiple different treatment options and let’s you decide what is best for yourself. I really appreciate how understanding she is and how comfortable she makes me feel during the appointment. Would highly recommend.
