    My 14 yr old has been seeing Meredith for the past 9 months. She has helped her deal with her…read moreanxiety, navigate her social life, better understand and communicate with me (Mom) and deal with depression. When we first brought my daughter to Meredith she was struggling greatly. She now has a better foundation and a safe place to talk about whatever she might need. I highly recommend Meredith for any of your counceling needs. She has been wonderful with my daughter!

    I first want to advise that this practice is made up of partners in the firm (much like a law firm)…read moreas well as therapists in training, therapists who rent office space and 2 psychiatrists who are independent contractors. Giving all of Pathway 1 star because you didnt have good results with one therapist is irrational and does not represent the entirety of the practice and the good it does in the community. All of the practictioners here take different types of insurance, some take Medicare and Medicaid, and have different hours and availability. I have been a patient of Darrin Bronfman, LCSW for over 9 years now. We meet together on a weekly basis to address issues related to my diagnosed bipolar disorder, borderline personality disorder and PTSD. During the years i have taken jobs which required travel or had medical issues that kept me homebound and we still met via phone or Skype on a weekly basis. Mr. Bronfman has always made himself available for after hours coaching in emergency situations by email or phone. He takes more of a psychodynamic approach to therapy, combining cognitive behavioral and DBT concepts in as well. I have improved significantly in the last few years thanks to his coaching and support. Mr. Bronfman has also successfully met with friends and family members of mine over the years to help them understand my illness and behavior. For several years I was in a dating relationship and Mr Bronfman referred us to one of his trainees for couples counseling. The trainee was well educated and supervised throughout her work with us. She helped us come to the difficult yet necessary decision that our relationship was not sustainable. We appreciated her guidance and were able to remain friends beyond. The trainee has since gone on to maintain her own successful practice elsewhere thanks to her experience at Pathway. I attribute the work Ive done with Darrin to be critical to the improvements I have made in my illness, improvements I have made as a human being and in my personal and professional relationships. 9 years ago I could not hold down a dating relationship or job - now I work full time and have positive interpersonal interactions in all areas of my life. And bluntly put - without the connection I share with Darrin, i am not sure I would be alive today. Darrin thank you for everything youve done for me, and heres to the next 9 and more.

    I have a serious issue with this facility, my friend was in dire need of help and emitted herself…read moreto a hospital that she was unaware of, the suicide line did not tell her where she was going, or what the place was like before dropping her off at this hellish place. She ended up being stranded and held hostage at this facility for about a week with no results besides more mental scars that she has to try and heal on top of the ones she had to begin with. My friend is strong and resilient but just to survive in this place she had to act completely out of character just to get her voice out, she and many others have been neglected, pushed aside, degraded , and out right dehumanized! having bed bugs in the facility is a safety and health hazard, not categorizing your patience and having everyone together male, female, insane, and least insane is a major liability! my friend could have died and I could have never seen her again! And the nurses were nothing but rude, heartless, and money hungry. I've worked in retirement homes that had more care than what these people had to offer! And also Dr. Figiel's nurse practitioner Monique count your days of being funded by the government because I will be coming for your job! talking to my friend in such a disgusting manor, using her information against her to get a gripe out of her emotionally and mentally after she was vulnerable to tell you to get help, and to be petty to get a last word is not what a nurse does. Im sorry to say that you will be putting fries in the bag somewhere else On top of this they are withholding her medical papers in order to go back to work, further crippling her mental as she's trying to get back into the work force to survive. Poor work ethic at its finest.

    I've been seeing Dr. Mehdi for about a year after deciding to seek care outside the VA system. As a…read moreveteran, I needed a more modern, individualized approach and medications/treatments the VA doesn't typically prescribe. From day one, Dr. Mehdi's expertise, compassion, and availability have been outstanding. His team/staff are top-notch--always prompt in answering calls and emails, and genuinely committed to my well-being. Dr. Mehdi is easy to talk to, listens carefully, and regularly updates my treatment plan. If you're looking for a caring, forward-thinking psychiatrist, I highly recommend Dr. Mehdi and his practice.

    Pro: I really liked the NP I was seeing. (5 stars). Con: A…read moreprovider is only as good as their support staff (2 stars) Before I get to the support staff, let's talk about the doctor. I was a patient for 3.5+ years before I spoke to him. Our first appointment was scheduled for 20 and billed for 30 minutes. Actual length? 7 minutes. He called me "my dear" several times which I think was an attempt to build rapport, but it landed somewhere between fake and lecherous. (2 stars for him) Back to the support staff, all offshore except the office manager. There is often a language barrier, like when the billing department called and asked to speak to "Doe Jane" instead of "Jane Doe" and referenced my recent visit with "Smith Mary." I usually need to call twice before someone answers the phone, and need to leave several messages before the provider gets them. On 2 occasions, I had a conversation with the NP where I mentioned trying to reach her several times and she said she never got a message until that day. Another time, the receptionist called and said, "[NP] wants me to tell you that she had an emergency and left early. She won't be able to call you today, but she will call you tomorrow." The provider hadn't been informed that I was looking for her. And didn't call back until I had left 2 more messages and spent 2 weeks thinking that she was purposely avoiding my calls. Another time, I left 2 messages for and emailed the office manager over the course of a week. When I called the next week and said I thought there was insurance fraud happening, she called me back immediately. Billing practices were explained in different incorrect ways by the billing department and then the office manager, both of which led me to believe there was insurance fraud happening. When I finally spoke to the NP, she explained it in 30 seconds and it made sense. Yes, the NP is good, but she doesn't operate alone. I stuck with her for nearly 4 years, but I finally got fed up with everyone around her.
