Felt like the provider was legitimately concerned and listened attentively to my issues, and caught the smaller details. Even though the appointment time went over even, it never felt rushed.

I felt my symptoms were validated and never dismissed, and now my day to day life is much better at my work and productivity.
Refills are really convenient. Michael is easy going and nice to talk to. The weekend availability is also appreciated.
We had a great discussion and michael really helped remove the stigma with ADHD. I am very happy with my treatment.

Good Psych who provides alternatives and involves you in the treatment. Excercises, supplements, and other recs which stood out.

I definitely would recommend Michael to others. He is I feel, one of the few doctors ive seen that laid out and explained the treatment options involving me in the process of psych meds and I felt I had knowledge and choice of what routes to go down, and the “what ifs” of going forward. I look forward to both results and any future appointments.
finally found a doctor that can prescribe me the medications i have been on previously since as a child. Absolute life saver amongst border line disrespectful psych doctors. Would defintely recommend Michael!
Switched insurance and was able to stay on my same daily meds for variety of psych history diagnoses. Michael was clear and understanding, and i did not have any issues, he answered any questions i had.
I was skeptical of telehealth working for my specific prescriptions but it has been trouble free with Michael for a while now. Glad to have made the switch easily!
I always suspected i fit a certain diagnosis since my childhood and Michael was really validating and listened to me about my whole past and got me started on a medication that is working well so far
Made a same day appointment and was able to be fit in, It felt like there was no rush and Michael took his time and attention for the appointment. Able to grab my prescription for pharmacy later in day also. Good experience all around.
Its a big decision to trust a doctor with your childs medications and I want to leave a review saying I feel like Michael was a great choice! They are doing much better in school, and any concerns of side effects or things to watch out for are thoroughly explained and with no real worry too. I feel like they are being appropriately monitored if things change.
Super happy with the patient experience. Michael was able to take care of my med needs quickly and easily. If i had known it was this convenient i would have gotten back on my previous meds a while ago
understanding and able to answer questions in an explained way which made things feel comofrtable with treatment options that i felt like i had the control over
Surprisingly nonjudgemental about psych related history and pleasant during our appointment, it was refreshing. was able to transfer prescriptions really easy and hopeful going forward
Michael has been with me as we tried out several medications for ADHD and we finally found something that works, and it has been several dependable, smooth months. If anyone has hesitation getting help and is reading this please give things a try first at least to see, it may be very worth it as it was for me.
I will likely stay with michael and his office. They actually do speak to the pharmacys if a medication is out of stock somewhere, and i like that reassurance if when it ever happens
Michael really help calm anxiety about medications and the appointment was super painless between the actual time speaking, having my prescription, and refills and questions I had along the way
Michael chose the right medication on the first try after what felt like really listening to my symptoms and needs, and he was responsive. Would recommend for any medication needs
Going forward now I think I will be doing telehealth for most of my psych visits. Very positive experience, Michael was still able to take time and be detailed, and i was immediately able to pickup my medication the same day.I later asked a question and he responded very quickly the same day.
First time and micheal did not just throw some generic antidepressant and call it a day. he took time to really find the right fit for what i needed mentally and it worked out great i feel so much better because of the what i feel was a well thought out medication choice
Michael was great and we got straight to the point. I felt comfortable and supported when talking through my needs. I’d definitely recommend him for any prescription needs.
Saw Michael for ADHD and would recommend, likely will stick with this office due to how responsive and quick they are. sameday availibility is also very nice
Amazing Psychiatrist. Answered all of my questions and concerns in a reassuring and informative way. I was also able to get a refill of my medication very quickly the same day of the appointment
Saw Michael after moving states to continue my monthly medications. I am very happy with how smooth and hassle free it has all been. I definitely recommend him for a psychiatrist
Michael has consistently helped me get refills of monthly medication with no hassles and worked with pharmacies very quickly with stock shortages of medication. would fully reccommend!
Super easy and convinient to get a refill of my regular medication after my previous doctor retired. Michael was easy to talk to and knew what i was needing.
I recommend for anyone with ADHD! I have never had a previous doctor take the time to work with me and pharmacys so quickly and it is very appreciated
