Didn’t listen to me properly. Ignored my patient history. Bad experience. At the end of the appointment I felt like I should have just found someone else. Waste of copay

Very professional and Knowledgeable.

I am used to psychiatrists just telling me what I need to do and what I need to take, he actually listened to my issues and we came up with a treatment plan together. I look forward to working with him in the future. His main objective was to make me feel better as a person which I completely appreciate. I would absolutely recommend seeing him if you are looking for a psychiatrist that will listen to you and respect you, as well as giving you his honest opinion.
