    I was recommended to Sami by my sister and I think she was very accommodating/kind. She also replied back to my questions very quickly before the appointment and addressed all my concerns during the appointment. She was very attentive and I would recommend her to a friend.

    Office and Zoc Doc scheduling was not coordinated properly for in person versus virtual appointments. I had to get medical transportation, so that was frustrating. The provider was kind and rescheduled me for a proper in person appointment. Ms. Moezzi is a caring, compassionate, kind, and attentive woman. She seems very interested in helping her patients get the help they need. I've been seen twice in person now. Both times, even with a shortened second appointment (my fault), she was a careful listener, even when we had limited time. She is kind and helpful. She seems to be genuinely interested in helping her patients, really wanting to understand what they are going through, and said we will work together to find solutions. I wanted an initial in person appointment so we could get a true sense of each other. Now, I'm going to do virtual appointments for most appointments.

    I’m new to mental health care, and I was a little nervous about my first appointment with Dr. Sammi because I wasn’t sure what to expect. I also sometimes struggle to put my feelings into words, but from the moment we met, she made me feel completely comfortable. She created such a safe and welcoming environment that I felt at ease the entire time. The appointment never felt rushed—she truly took the time to get to know me, understand my needs, and offer thoughtful tips and suggestions. I left feeling supported and optimistic, and I’m already looking forward to my next visit with her. Highly recommend!

    I have been seeing Sammy for a few years now. She has a gentle manner and very informative. Sammy truly cares about your mental health and will work with you to find what the right fit (medicine, therapy, etc) is to help you on your new healthy way of living. I always look forward to our Sessions together she really listens to you and she has welcoming spirit.
    Sami is the best! She is so patient and compassionate and works really hard with you to make sure you’re getting what you need. I can’t recommend her enough!
    I really appreciated Sami’s patient listening as I perhaps rambled with so much going on in my life at that first visit. She asked pertinent questions and tried to assess the big picture as well as details related to each concern. I found her very thorough and I felt she really cared about how I was doing. She is so knowledgeable about the biology and physiology of what can happen in a person and understands many environmental factors, lifestyle practices, medications (or lack thereof) and how all this can impact a person. Over time my initial impressions deepened and I am very glad to have her as an important professional as part of my health care team. I appreciate her honesty, straightforward style and her genuinely caring nature.
    I have been seeing Sami for many years, and I can confidently say she is the most compassionate and attentive provider I’ve ever had. She is not only knowledgeable and dependable but also deeply invested in her patients' well-being, which is the most remarkable aspect of her care. Sami is incredibly kind, understanding, and unrelentingly supportive. I hope I can be as supportive to another person as she is for me.
    I cannot speak highly enough of Sami. She takes the time to make sure all issues are addressed and works with me on a treatment plan that is best for me.
    Dr. Moezzi knows me well. She is familiar with my work, family, and life goals. She undersrands that I am not my illness, but has helped me manage my illness. Together we make sure that my medication is adjusted corrected. I feel comfortable reporting any possible symptoms or changes in my life to her. She is definitely on my side and I value our appointments.
    Sami listens to your issues very attentively and suggests healthy and natural lifestyle changes with her treatment plans. She helped direct me in a path to identify a problem that I’ve had for over 15 years that no other doctors took the time, patience, and interest in further investigating. Her beside manner is top notch and you never have to feel ashamed or embarrassed about your issues. She never makes you feel rushed at your appointment and is always on time. Her staff is very professional and friendly and great about following up and scheduling to ensure you are good with your prescription refills. I’ve had 5 psychiatrists and Sami has been by far the most thorough. She also offers telehealth which is convenient. I consider her as one of my most important and influential doctors. I wouldn’t be where I am now without all of her support and guidance. Highly, highly recommend.
    Over the years, I’ve seen therapists, but none truly took the time to get to know me, understand my challenges, or help me effectively manage my mental health. It wasn’t until I met Dr. Sammi—after working with a few different therapists—that I was finally diagnosed with ADHD. Dr. Sammi stands out because she genuinely takes the time to understand how you’re feeling. She is both personable and professional, and her approach has made a world of difference in my journey.
    Sami is wonderful!!! She is always consistent, gives not only great life advice but the tools necessary to navigate each situation. She genuinely cares about her patients and that is very evident with how she follows up, responds immediately, and provides research to back up her diagnosis / treatment plans. HIGHLY recommend her.
    Samaaneh (Sammi) is truly exceptional. She is kind, patient, and incredibly easy to work with. Her approachable and compassionate demeanor makes every interaction feel comfortable and supportive. Of all the providers I have worked with in any medical field, Samaaneh stands out as the most communicative and understanding. She listens attentively, provides thoughtful guidance, and creates a safe space where I feel truly heard and cared for. I cannot recommend her highly enough to anyone seeking a dedicated and skilled psychiatric nurse practitioner.
    Sammi is a phenomenal ally, a true advocate for my personal health and wellbeing. Someone I’ve trusted for years, through significant life events, and I can’t see myself considering anyone else. She’s incredibly bubbly, genuine, and approachable. That’s been true since the day we met. Visits feel personal, not clinical; we’re having a conversation about my health not filling out a survey. Her personality cut right through 25+ years of “going through the motions until I give up”. For the first time I felt believed about the impact my physical health has on my treatment. I was met with interest and enthusiasm, a care plan that accounts for it, and help in keeping tabs on both. Sammi has had a bigger impact than all of my providers before combined, that’s why I call her my ally. She treats me like a person, she’s fighting as hard (ok sometimes harder) as I am, and she makes sure I know I’m not alone. Any provider can promise those simple things but Sammi actually remembers to do them.
    My visits with Sami always pleasant. Alays happy to talk to her. Her method to speak with patient it’s relax and fun, it feels like you talk with a friend. And she do listen of Any concern that I have. And try as best as she an to help me to solved it.
    Sammi is one of my favorite providers to go to. She listens and really hears you. She has helped me so much this past year. Her kindness and sweet nature make our sessions great! Highly recommend!
    I’ve been seen Sami for the past couple of years. She is incredibly understanding and compassionate. I recommend her without hesitation. It is not easy for me to find someone who I can relate to so easily. She is a very wonderful and understanding kind person.
    Sami is incredible! She’s very personable and approachable. Every session, I can tell she has my best interest in mind. Sami creates an open and welcoming space where I feel comfortable asking questions and voicing any concerns about my treatment plans. Overall, I would absolutely recommend her services to anyone and everyone I know.
    I've been with Samaaneh Moezzi for 3+ years, and she's been nothing short of a blessing in my life! I even followed her when she opened her own practice! Unfortunately, I've had more than my share of bad providers and horror stories to go with it. I was very untrusting and paranoid that I'd suffer again by someone who lacked integrity/abused their position. But, in order to be eligible for certain health benefits, I was required to see a provider. Fortunately, I was directed to Samaaneh as a new patient! In just our first session, I felt at ease/safe; a very uncommon feeling at that time. I found myself looking forward to sessions with her, as it was always positive, and she has so much insight, passion, and emotional intelligence. I started out with Samaaneh as a very broken individual, void of all hope. I was not living my life or even felt in control of it, rather just existing. Now, I'm enjoying my life, actually living it and I have so much hope! Samaaneh is seriously a God sent!
    I began seeing PA-C Moezzi to address my depression, and I cannot express enough how grateful I am for her care and expertise. She has been able to identify the right form of treatment that is not only comprehensive but also tailored specifically to my needs and other medical conditions. PA-C Moezzi takes the time to truly understand the areas where I might be struggling and approaches my care with compassion and thoughtfulness. What sets her apart is her dedication to uncovering underlying issues rather than immediately resorting to prescribing medication. Her thoughtful approach has made a significant difference in my journey to better mental health. I highly recommend her to anyone seeking a provider who genuinely cares and listens.
    Very good. She is very knowledgeable and is very easy to talk to. I am able to share my struggles and any issues I’m having without judgment. I feel understood, where other doctors, I have not.
    She's not just a professional and cures me also she extremely cares about her patients with the best knowledge and is nice personally I'm so fortunate to have her as my psychiatrist beside me I already recommend her to most friends and family I have been living here at Montgomery co Maryland over 40 years I never meet someone as nice and professional as Dr. MOEZZI, SAMAANEH I appreciate everything she did and cares about our health and our wellness.
    During my first consultation with this provider, I was asked many questions, and I did not understand the relevance of some of them at first. But, she has a wonderful manner and appears both caring and non-judgmental, so I did my best to provide my history and issues without hiding anything. Through her follow up questions, she was able to draw a great many more facts from me in a relatively short period without seeming hurried. I did not feel that I had to get to the point of something to keep her attention; instead, she was fully engaged at all times. I have continued with her and am so glad I did. I feel ever so much better, and I appreciate that she remembers all that we have discussed, even if it was a while ago. I never have to remind her of anything that may have bothered me at any earlier point, and she often will ask about issues from a while back. She is absolutely awesome, and I recommend her without any reservation!
    Sami is great, exuberant and patient with you as you work with her. She doesn’t stop with uncovering symptoms and offering medicinal treatment; she digs deep to get to know you and make sure she’s going the right direction and that you are aware of additional adjustments you can make to aid in your healing.
    Sami is truly one of a kind! I have been seeing her since 2021 and she has helped me become a better version of myself. I highly recommend anyone to see her. She is such an intelligent and kind person.
    I started seeing Dr Moezzi many years ago when she was with another practice. I suffer from debilitating depression and she has been a constant support and source of information to help me. She never cancels appointments. She is always able to fit me in when I have an emergency. She has coordinated with the Veterans Affairs and other doctors to make sure I received the best care. She has advocated for me many times with the VA and Social Security. Dr Moezzi is compassionate and driven to help her patients. I’m so grateful for her.
    Samaaneh is amazing! Words cannot describe how outstanding she is at her job. She goes above and beyond to always find a solution for her patients. I am thriving today and living a normal balanced life all because of her. Most of all, you can tell that how passionate she is about helping others. Although, we discuss very personal and difficult things, she always finds a way to make me feel comfortable and up lift my mood. It is an honor being one of her patients!
    Incredible! Finding the right person isn’t always a simple thing. Dr. Samaa categorically fell from the sky and landed n my lap! The consummate professional, the epitome of care and intellect. She is my dedicated provider, never failing her commitment to my care. Recognising what I may need, when I may need it. I don’t have emergency moments, but when I was confronted with the one moment when I felt a strong sense of urgency, she was but a click away! Thank you is not enough but thank you Dr S! ????
    I have finally found the right doctor! She is absolutely amazing and very good at explaining things in an easy and understandable way, even with difficult diagnoses. I will never change doctors again and that's a good feeling!
    Sami is by far the best psych practitioner I have worked with. Sami takes the time to understand her patients medical conditions, life circumstances and truly digests it into a beyond refined approach to medicine. As someone with multiple psych related illnesses Sami has always made me feel like she would any other person, has always taken my input, answered any questions about my treatment and has always gone the extra mile for me and my care. I have always and will continue to recommend Sami.
    Sami Moezzi is a fantastic psychiatric PA! Instead of a five minute psych med management session like I had with my previous psychiatrist, Sami spends an hour each session with me getting to know me as a person and to see me in good moods and bad. She’s an amazing person who has such great insights into my mind and is very knowledgeable about psychopharmacology. My only regret is that I didn’t meet her years ago. I highly recommend Sami for your psychiatric needs.
    Sami is an excellent practitioner who truly cares about her patients. She’s a great listener, and was able to accurately diagnose a condition my primary care doctor had missed just by carefully listening to my symptoms. I followed her when she changed practices and have recommended her to family members. Highly recommend!
