    Scott is patient, kind, understanding and a great choice if you feel like your psychiatrist has not understood or listened in the past. I was really anxious about seeing a new psychiatrist, and I feel so relieved and hopeful after my appointment. Us ladies know how hard it is to find a doctor who doesn't just write off our problems!! Thank you, Scott!!!

    I couldn’t recommend Scott more. If you’re like me, you’ve seen a whole slew of providers. I’ve had my fair share of bad experiences where I felt like the person on the other side of me couldn’t have cared less about me or the issue I was presenting. That’s not the case with Scott. I found his process to be very relational and like he wanted to know more about me and why I was there. This is one of the good ones.

    Scott Fricke was an excellent listener—attentive, non-judgmental, and highly knowledgeable in his field. My appointment was thorough, and he took the time to walk me through all available treatment options in detail. Highly recommend!

    I couldn’t ask for a better provider. Scott is absolutely phenomenal in every way. As a person with severe mental illnesses, I’ve been tossed around by more psychiatric professionals than I can count. But Scott put an end to that disheartening cycle for me. I have been his patient for a couple years now, and despite incredibly low moments of mine having occurred during our time together, Scott has never given up on me. To him, I am a person, then a patient. And I can’t stress enough how valuable & rare that quality is in mental health care. Scott is more than just the person I go to for medication management- he is a partner in my healing journey, always listening to my concerns, and using his expertise and compassionate heart to guide me, while validating that I know my body and mind best. As I advocate for what I need, Scott’s professional insights help make the best treatment possible for me. I am endlessly grateful. I truly cannot recommend R.M.W enough! Scott is the best!
    Dr. Scott is a fantastic practitioner. I think he goes above and beyond to make sure I feel heard and supported. Lucky to be his client!
    Calm, collected, non-judgmental and knowledgeable. Offers other solutions than just prescribing more medication. Works at your pace.
    Scott was incredibly communicative, accommodating, and professional. I am appreciative I was able to have seamless day off booking, thank you!
