Sarita Shrestha is incredibly approachable and easy to talk to about any concerns or issues. They took the time to understand my unique situation and provided the most appropriate and effective care. Their warmth and compassion make every visit feel more like talking to a trusted family member than a typical clinical experience.
Dr Shrestha is very paitent and kind. Her office has a nice calm atmosphere. Prior to my 1st visit I was very nervous, because I havent seen a Psychiatrist before but after meeting her I felt instantly comfortable. She has a wonderful positive vibe that makes it easy to open up about what you are going through. Not only is she a great listener but also explains things so you understand. I strongly recommend her.

I have the pleasure of meeting with Sarita once a month and I always look forward to my appointment. I am impressed with the level of care I receive from her and her overall expertise. She is always professional, attentive, friendly, and very knowledgeable on all things pertaining to my mental health and well-being.
This visit was fine, but for previous visits I had been waiting in the waiting room for 30+ minutes. She also has had a tendency in the past to argue with me about what are the best ways for me to manage my mental health and disregard my autonomy over my decision making, which appeared very disrespectful at the time. Luckily, she has presented herself much more respectfully during recent appointments.
Always professional and very helpful.
Extremely knowledge, emphatic and patience.
