“I've only been seen by Dr. Konana a couple of times. But I can say so far that she is professional, bright and caring. She takes your time seriously and tries to make sure that you're getting the best out of your appointment with her. She doesn't want to just medicate your problems away, she wants to find the right treatment plan for you. ”

First experience with seeing a mental health professional! I quickly realized there was no reason for me to be nervous, and I was comfortable very soon after the call started. She understood my concerns about medication and was able to reassure me that I have a say in how I want to be treated.

Dr. Monisha Konana is by far the friendliest psychiatrist I’ve ever been to. She listens to what your issues are and gives actionable directions at the end. Not once was she dismissive, which is an issue I’ve frequently had in the past. Can’t recommend her highly enough!!
May 16, 2023Grayson G.Verified patient
She made sure that I was comfortable and assuaged any fears that I had about my appointment, she took her time and really listened as well. Throughout the appointment I felt very safe.
More than 1 year agoAnaadi A.Verified patientVideo visit
Based on this being my first visit with Dr. Konana, I can attest to how happy I am to have found her. Her bedside manners are great! She is a great listener and I felt like she was able to get to know a lot about me in the little time we had because of this. We talked about my treatment plan, and how we will proceed going forward. We have our next visit scheduled. I believe she wants to work with me and that is so reassuring, since it is so hard to find great care. I want consistency and someone who truly cares about my well-being. I think I found that with Dr. Konana!

Dr. Konana is an amazing psychiatrist. She is very friendly, bubbly, and knowledgeable. I felt very heard in my appointment and she was able to empathize with me in a non-judgmental way. She seemed to really care about my mental health and my progress. She actively listened and spoke through her thought process in a way that made her care feel very collaborative and compassionate. I would highly recommend her to family and friends.

I was very nervous for days prior going into the appointment. Dr. Monisha was great at listening and empathizing with me as well as calming. She was very clear in her explanations and her plan of action for my care. I am excited for my followup appointment and would definitely recommend Dr. Monisha especially if you are nervous as she has a great bedside manner.

Dr. Konana was absolutely amazing. I was very nervous prior to the visit as it was my first time visiting a psychiatrist, but Dr. Konana made it so easy and comfortable for me. Everything felt so natural and she made me feel at ease while listening intently to what I had to say. She did not rush me or make me feel like I was taking up too much time. She took the time to really get to know my issues and took into consideration my fears surrounding medication. She was so validating!

Monisha Konana, MD was a very kind and open person whom listened very closely to my trauma. She was able to very quickly make a diagnosis. I was also placed on specific medication catered to my personal needs and encouraged to visit a counselor. I am scheduled to see her again in a couple of weeks to reassess my diagnosis. I highly recommend!

Dr. Konana was extremely attentive and empathetic to my situation. I appreciated her disclaimer that she goes for a more holistic approach and did not want to overwhelm me with all different types of medication. I really enjoyed our visit!

Dr. Konana was wonderful! The best experience I have ever had with a psychiatrist! She really took the time to get to know me and what was going on in my life. I felt like she truly cares about helping you figure things and figure out the right medication for you! I highly recommend her.
February 22, 2023Sarah Jane L.Verified patientVideo visit
Dr. Konana was very helpful and explained all of her clinical decisions to me very well. I have seen a couple of psychiatrists before and this visit has been the best I've been to. She took an extensive case history and used all that I told her to put a puzzle piece together of what might be best for me and such. I am very glad to have seen her and I will continue to.

Have had an amazing experience with this provider. She took the time to listen, and was very knowledgeable. I found her to be the best psychiatrist I’ve seen in that she really cares about helping her patients. Would highly recommend to anyone looking to get serious about their mental health!

Let me tell you - 2020-2022 were some pretty rough years! Saw multiple providers before Dr. Konana one after another who were honestly useless. Multiple diagnoses were thrown around without addressing the underlying problem.
Dr. Konana was the first provider who took the time to listen to me and understand what was going on. I finally have the correct diagnosis and have started treatment and let me tell you - 2023 is going to be my year!

Dr. Konana is really easy to talk to, caring, compassionate, and clearly very knowledgeable on psychiatric medications. I would highly recommend her. She is the first psychiatrist I’ve had who is punctual, attentive, and takes the time to really understand my history and explain medications well.

Dr Konana was so helpful to me, she asked me great questions that made me think about my particular situation and was both insightful and a great communicator. I would highly recommend her to those wanting to seek a provider for mental health. I loved our visit and would love to see her again!!

Dr Konana was highly empathetic and personable. I felt truly heard and understood, and that we were collaborating towards improvement together! Highly recommend!
More than 1 year agoPD
Dr. Konana is my second psychiatrist, and I have been blown away by her professionalism and empathy. I saw my previous provider for almost a year and didn’t realize how much better it could be. Dr. Konana clearly outlined her approach during my first appointment, and gave me space to discuss my goals before jumping in with any recommendations. I’ve felt well-supported ever since that day. If you’re looking for a provider you can trust, look no further! Dr. Konana will take great care of you.
