“I’ve been a patient of Dr. Ambrass since early 2022, and I cannot thank him enough for his services throughout our time working together! I was diagnosed with ADHD and OCD not long before this, and both discovering and navigating this at 21 was overwhelming. Scott was extremely communicative, attentive, and receptive to my questions and concerns. He also offered great clinical advice for managing my symptoms, and was extremely thorough in explaining side effects and cross-interactions of medications. Although this shouldn’t be the case, he initially surprised me with how genuine and kind he is following negative experiences with past providers. His positive attitude definitely makes the appointment feel more comfortable. I highly recommend following up with Dr. Ambrass if you’re looking for professional ADHD support!”

My psych always listens to my concerns and truly cares. He may be one in 1 million but he’s fantastic.

Nurse Practitioner Ambrass is an excellent clinician and mental health provider. He is kind, considerate, prompt, and professional. To be candid, I only met with Provider Ambrass only one time for an initial consultation. Provider Ambrass has a depth of knowledge and an understanding of appropriate medication, and he has a personality where one can deliver not-so-good news while also sharing very positive news – he is balanced in his approach to things, and very observant about a patient’s lifestyle and behavior. He is also respectful of wait-time, for patients, and is accommodating in providing extra time. If I had not met with another provider I “clicked” with a little easier, I would most definitely go with Provider Ambrass. Provider Ambrass is an excellent clinician, in my honest opinion, and I felt compelled to leave a review here for others – as he in fact offered some good insights on my current medication – and, for this, I am grateful. Thank you, Provider Ambrass!

Dr. Ambrass listened to all of my concerns and it felt like an informative, yet friendly conversation that made me feel less nervous going into the appointment.

Mental health appointments can be nerve racking but Scott was great! He made me feel at ease, was clearly listening to me and asked great questions that I’ve never been asked by a mental health provider. I highly recommend seeing him!

I had a wonderful appointment with Scott! He was very friendly, paid careful attention to my questions and concerns, very knowledgeable, and helped me to make informed decisions regarding my treatment plan. I would definitely recommend him! Best experience I’ve had with a psychiatrist by far!
