Dr Ralph, Is amazing! I have never left that office without feeling better. He has a way of resetting me.

Dr Ralph was welcoming and took me right in. we spent the entire hour talking and notes as we talked.

My rating is only based upon my needs. He is a good doctor, but I don’t believe he was for me and my needs.

Extremely negative experience; Ralph needs some close advisory to improve his clinical skills and protect his patients. Booked a couples televisit to discuss a specific issue. Ralph asked very few questions over the course of the session and monologued at length about the nature of thoughts and emotions. A few times he'd say something like 'is the situation you all are dealing with like this example' and then describe an example at length that didn't at all fit what we were experiencing because he wasn't particularly interested in understanding us. My partner kind of checked out towards the end which seemed to deeply offend Ralph and he said to my partner 'Well I guess you have all the answers' in a combative way. Whole thing felt more like a ted talk than a therapy session. I don't recommend this provider and frankly think he's lacking some needed clinical oversight.

Ralph’s service was beyond our expectations! Not only incredibly educated but also able to put things in blatant terms and listened thoroughly. Amazing human that is passionate about helping guide others to more understanding of themselves and their relationships.
Very grateful we found Ralph!

Dr. Ralph. is excellent.
January 15, 2024Jim C.Verified patient
Great Doctor and a ton of experience. Very knowledgeable , you can tell her truly cares for his patients. I am blessed to have found him.
August 8, 2023Monica C.Verified patient
I found my meeting with Dr. Whetstine incredibly helpful and insightful. I appreciated how much experience and different approaches to treatment he brought to the session. He was very compassionate and understanding of my concerns, and in only one session helped break down a lot of the negative thoughts I've been dealing with for months. Highly recommend for anyone with questions/issues related to mental health or life in general.

I think our lines were crossing the entire televisit. I was completely transparent with the doctor. Instead of appreciating, or giving me any insight at all, he used it against me and told me that I was emotionally unstable to work with him.
His bedside manner leaves a lot to the imagination; it reflected rudeness, a cold attitude, inadequate listening skills, and a complete disregard for my needs.
He offered me no alternatives no suggestions in how to move forward, and just outright refused service; I will be disputing the bill upon arrival.

Very friendly and an EXCELLENT A+ experience

RUN AWAY !!! Please view my review-
unfortunate to have to write a review, but at this point I feel I need to. First appointment was very welcoming, office is a disaster, papers all over the place, incredibly unprofessional, but I still have him a chance as he came off very insightful.
Second appointment, he was very rude and snarky when he saw I was becoming shy and quite.
There was no need to be aggressive and tell me “ I’ve heard this before, I’m being up front with you, that usually means patients won’t come back” nor tell me “I won’t change my style of therapy “
If a therapist is not for me then that’s okay, I’ll find out in my own terms. Just because I said I was unsure of how I felt and was becoming shy, does not mean I should be treated with less respect.
Well… maybe you’ve heard it all before and maybe there’s something you need to improve on, I would start by cleaning up your attitude.

Dr. Whetstine knows how to make patients feel comfortable and has years of experience helping others. His knowledge is extensive and he gave me optimism and a deep sense of trust even after one session.

Fantastic Doctor very easy to talk to
January 5, 2021Allan G.Verified patient
Definitely impressed with his thoughts about behavior and root causes. He offers a lot of useful skills to use if your other half can be difficult, but in a way that is constructive and consistent. None of us come into a relationship perfect, and acceptance is key. Strongly recommended if you feel like some of your issues revolve around the same thing - same fights, no real resolve.

Good
October 29, 2019Viviana M.Verified patient
Very nice and polite, had a lot of helpful knowledge and good advice and I was very comfortable talking to him, highly recommend!!
October 25, 2019Brian O.Verified patient
Very unprofessional. Gives a hard time with Medicare if you're not a senior. Threatening behaviors, and kinda off a bit. Ungrounded. Do not recommend, unless you need a sloppy office doc to reassure yourself that you're ok even after a sloppy office or bedroom question revisitation.

It was great. I’m glad I found him.
Gabrielle B.Verified patient
Was very rude when it came to explaining the cost and didnt give me the time and attention I wanted. Horrible experience and he shouldn't be doing this as a job.
June 28, 2019Michael B.Verified patient
Very educated and well versed in his field. Does not just sit there and listens like most in his field. Very interactive. Highly recommend.
April 5, 2019Frank S.Verified patient
Dr was extremely attentive and speaking in a way that was very understandable. He made sure I was comfortable while assuring me that if I didn’t feel that it wasn’t a good fit that there was no hard feelings.

A very straight forward honest psycologist/counselor! Enthusiatic to achieve goals for my needs in what is needed to be done. Has many years in his practice and seems very passionate about his work.
December 16, 2015Frank L.Verified patient
Best decision I've ever made was meeting with Dr. Ralph. He is great at his job and he really cares about helping you. I'm very happy about seeing him.
Lola R.Verified patient
Dr. Whetstine was exactly what my husband and I needed. A breath of fresh air! He was able to accommodate our schedule and see us at short notice. Left feeling a sense of accomplishment and look forward to seeing him again.
June 26, 2015James S.Verified patient
I'm always pleased, comfortable and looking forward to my appointments to be able to help further myself in my goals with seeing him.
RCVerified patient
Dr Ralph is exceptional! have referred my son & best friend already. Dr Ralph is very knowledgeable but still has such compassion.
MTVerified patient
I looked forward to my weekly visits with Dr. Whetstine. He is very easy to talk to and very knowledgeable. I've seen a few "therapists" throughout my life and none has been as good as him. He actually talks and gets me thinking. I highly recommend him to ALL my friendly and family.
ESVerified patient
Dr. Ralph is an excellent listener and very patient. He has helped me immensely in better understanding and controlling my anxiety. He genuinely cares about helping me and that has proven to make a big difference when compared to other therapist/Dr's I have seen in the past - he sees me as an individual instead of just another "copy-and-past treatment" case.
MLVerified patient
My visit was enlightening. I always discover the best aspects of myself during my sessions - when I leave I am refreshed and feel a sense of the strong woman that I am - Excellent
MJVerified patient
I always learn something new about myself during each visit. Though I don't have the most enjoyable visits, I find each session helpful to my self-discovery process & overall well-being. Plus, my doctor is hilarious. Brownie points.
