“(Zocdoc should really have the provider's name above this field for easy reference. Hold on ... ) OK, Royston Ogbuagu was my first experience using Zocdoc, and it was an extremely impressive one. I don't know what the future holds with Mr. Ogbuagu, but as for the initial consultation, he was extremely thorough, insightful, polite, and professional in terms of taking and reiterating critical comments from me about my background, history of mental-health treatment, and medications. In terms of medication management, Mr. Ogbuagu was knowledgeable and conservative in his approach to treatment. I intent to have ongoing sessions with him and will update this review should anything change. ”
