October 9, 2022Abigail R.Verified patient
Dr. Welge is truly the best. With mental health, finding the right fit can be so hard. I’ve unfortunately experienced providers who felt closed off or judgmental.
With Dr. Welge, I genuinely felt safe and heard. He listens to my concerns, understands my goals, and approaches care in a collaborative way - never a top-down “just do what I say” dynamic.
He has my trust, and that’s a currency that’s invaluable in any doctor–patient
relationship. I would recommend him a thousand times over!
Melanie E.Verified patient
Excellent DR.Very knowledgeable

Great doc, extremely patient and helpful!
January 29, 2026Lidian V.Verified patient
Asked for a card on file stating it’s for security if appointments not cancelled in time. But then they charging me for my copay without even telling me what the bill is. All other offices always called me and asked if card is ok to charge after sharing my copay

I am already in love with my doctor. He listened to me responded to me in a way that made me feel judged. I’m really excited to start this journey with him and see where I end up after.
October 31, 2024Sierra H.Verified patient
Dr. Alex explained more to me about myself in one hour than I learned in 30 years of life. He listened and thoroughly explained the “why” which I really appreciate. I have not had great experiences in the past with psych providers, but this changed everything. Very empathetic, understanding, and validated exactly how I’ve been feeling. Looking forward to my next appointment.
October 14, 2024Lisa S.Verified patient
Dr Welge clearly knows his stuff and communicated in a way that made me feel calm, seen, and understood. Unfortunately I had to continue with a different provider after our first visit, but I have no doubt I would have continued to receive compassionate and competent care with Dr Welge.
October 14, 2024Darcy A.Verified patient

You can tell a lot about a psychiatrist after the first meeting. With our first meeting I saw Alex is professional, caring, and knows his stuff. I’m excited to get to work with him further.

Really good.
Anjali A.Verified patient
So thankful that this exists - was able to see a thoughtful, compassionate, engaged doctor much more quickly virtually than if I’d waited for an in-person appointment. Great explanation, clear understanding, and collaborative development of a plan,

He is not just a doctor who talks to you; there are real reasons explained clearly which give the patient confidence that an end goal of success is possible. Highly recommend for non alternative and traditional treatment.

I have seen many doctors in my life and I had almost given up. Dr Welge actually listened to me, spent time understanding my issues and tried solutions that I had never tried/heard of (and I have tried a lot). Really great attitude and communication.
April 29, 2024James R.Verified patient
Dr. Welge is incredibly kind, and he has been immensely helpful to me. I began my first session in tears, and he took the time I needed to recover. By the end of the session, I was feeling much better and filled with hope.
April 20, 2024Bruna F.Verified patient
Dr. Welge was very kind and compassionate. He listened to what I was going through and asked the expected follow-up questions. He spent the expected amount of time with me. I was very satisfied and have made a follow up appointment. I am very pleased with the process as a whole, and with Dr. Welge’s Professionalism and psychiatric service he provided.?
April 8, 2024Diana S.Verified patient
Alex was extremely helpful in providing constructive and tailored explanations for my issues. I have only had one initial session with him, and we have already identified meaningful skills that can help me cope with mental health. Will definitely be seeing him consistently moving forward. If you're looking for a more holistic approach to mental illness, highly recommend!

Much different than expected. In a great way.
Jaimie A.Verified patient
Dr. Welge listened to my concerns and used his knowledge as both a psychiatrist and internist to connect my current symptoms with my other health conditions. He recommended a series of holistic and medication treatments, and explained in detail the benefits and risks with each. I feel that lingering questions about my mental health have been answered as a result of my appointment, and I am grateful for his help.

Dr. Welge was very informative and knowledgeable. I was comfortable speaking with him right away. Which can be hard when starting with a new doctor.
Mercedez S.Verified patient
Great experience. Fantastic listener and took his time. Asked great questions and very thorough; wants to investigate things prior to prescribing anything which we think is fantastic. We highly recommend and are booking our follow up visits.
