Love this doctor. I don't say that often. She is so warm, unlike the psychiatrists I have seen in the past.
She is very compassionate and caring. She spends much time with her patients to be sure she understands them.

She actually cares for her patients, and you can really tell.
I've been seeing the doctor for 4-5 years, and she's great.
She is the best, most caring psychiatrist I have ever seen.
Wonderful experience with a caring, compassionate doctor!
She is an excellent doctor, very caring and supportive.
She is the best psychiatrist that I have ever been to.
She is a kind woman, and skilled at her profession.
The dr. was kind and caring but she did prescribe a few different medications in the first appointment for several different conditions with no discussion of easing on to one medication at a time, or more holistic options. I feel like certain conditions could be diagnosed with a more thorough and patient approach. If you are looking for someone with a cautious/judicious approach to medication perhaps not the right dr. for you.
She is wonderful. So is her staff.

She seems very well meaning, but like most psychiatrists in this area, she has so many clients she can’t keep them straight. Been there three times now and she still asks me what I do for a living. So it’s hard to build a relationship that way. She is nice though and if I were a little more open to opening up it would probably be better, but she doesn’t overly pry (which I sometimes need). My initial visit she tried to push tons of meds, I didn’t need any of them and since the initial no’s on the first visit she has left it up to me to bring up if I am interested in any other medications.
I love this doctor!
She was very polite, and professional as usual.
Always the best time there, and the best help you in right away low wait time if any. Gets you in talks for about 15- 45 mins very caring, and really does want whats best for you, Always goes over how meds are working for me. Just all around amazing office and of course its always a wonderful time when her regular receptionist is there...One of the best people ever! and this new doctor i I have seen twice now....She's older white lady who I love with all my heart...she really cares about people.
Loved her as usual such a sweet, nice, and actually caring doctor..She honestly makes you feel safe,and that you can tell her anything without being judged. She has a therapist I think it is, and she sat in on my last session with my permission of course. She was amazing as well and I plan to be making an appointment after next year when i do my health insurance stuff, but that's besides the point. Everyone in that office even the receptionist are professional,nice, understanding and probably the best in the area! Colin B
Does the job right.
