And he's not just incredibly knowledgeable about ADHD, but he cares about my holistic health. After years with doctors who took my medication more seriously than my symptoms or who prescribed at me and not with me, I'm incredibly grateful to have found him. The quality of my life improved dramatically once I started seeing him.

But you did work with my parents and they listened to your recommendation of upping my drugs, because even though I was a D1 athlete, I was fat so obviously, I was metabolizing the drugs really fast and there was something going on there. but again, you NEVER suggested any other forms of therapy for me and knew I wasn't getting anything else. You commented every single time I had the same name as your wife. But she went by Kathy. You also saw my father with same last name. One time I tried to tell you how interacting with my father made me feel and you said, "whoa hold on we don't do that here." My name is Kathryn Molitor and you have my permission to release my records to prove me wrong.

He is keenly insightful with children, especially. Dr Verby is awfully patient, to the point you know he cares and knows ones' individual situation. Without him, my kids wouldn't be as great as they are. (I had begun treatment with him after moving back to SF from NY, @ Columbia University , and back to UCLA Dr's... and..back to him) .... then was lucky enough to have him be there for my kiddos for the last 7 years. They both have adhd. Office experience note: I suggest you don't try to play his piano unless you actually know how to play [in the waiting room].

He came up in conversation today, which has happened many times over the years and it's always about how he constantly upped our doses as children to an excessive level. I have spoken with countless people over the years who had the exact same experience and some people, including myself, started using hard drugs by hooking kids on adderall at such high doses. I've met many of them in AA who went through the same thing with him and started using cocaine and meth due to him. I could go on and on. And every time he comes up, it's always the exact same story and the disbelief that he still has his license . I don't normally write yelp reviews but after meeting another person today who he got hooked on high doses of adderall as a kid and later experienced addiction as a result. I'm not exaggerating when I say tons of parents and kids had the exact same experience with him countless times over the years.

I can't imagine seeing another psychiatrist. Dr Amin LISTENS and truly cares about her patients.

As a mid life woman, my gut instinct was to see a female psychiatrist and in my case, this proved to be true. Not only is she a very intelligent and knowledgeable psychiatrist, she is warm and caring as well. She took the time to explain to me her findings and did so in a compassionate way. All the while answering any questions I had along the way. I can already tell that this initial consult will lead to a productive and positive partnership in my health and well being!

His sensitivity and evidence based therapy guided me towards success and also quite literally saved my life. After going to multiple psychiatrists, therapists, and even hospitals with no relief from my symptoms of PTSD and anxiety, Dr. Towery was practically my last shot. His spirit and sensitivity immediately led me to trust him. I have not regretted that decision since. His brilliance not only helped me work through my PTSD but also completely inspired me. The cognitive techniques he used were beyond helpful, helping me regain the sense of hopefulness that I had thought I lost forever. Through hard work and expert guidance I have officially graduated therapy! Dr. Towery truly helped me and I recommend him to all those who are seeking help.

Dr. David Goldstein is a fabulous doctor, though some might find him robotic and quiet , consider…read morethat even though he is a doctor he may also be shy at first with his patients as he is a human being first and foremost. Dr Goldstein has gone out of his way to make sure I have stayed safe in two of my worst nervous breakdowns, mainly major depressive episodes that were too severe for me to come in to see him. Dr Goldstein returned my calls , assured me at anytime I could not get ahold of him he would have an on call Dr. Available, and made sure that I continued to consistently take my medication. We have faced some disagreements as he has pushed my comfort zone (which is good for me!) instead of prescribing me another med, and got down to the nitty gritty reality that much of my treatment relies on not just medication but on doing the work necessary, (which he promptly reminded me when I informed him I quit psychotherapy) The man truly cares, especially if you are genuine and make an effort to show you are invested in getting help and making a connection with your treatment team. He works with my therapist, my general practioner, monitors my refills (I'm a recovering addict) and has given me MORE than extra support and reached out to me personally at no extra charge. If you are looking for a psychiatrist that understand though medication in most cases is more than crucial, but still understands that medication is not the ONLY form of crucial treamtent needed to help rehabilitate psychiatric disorders and mental illnesses of all kinds, (including day treatment , spiritual life, meditation, psychotherapy, hypnotherapy, Trauma Processings and Therapies such as EMDR, and even give the harsh truth that it's time for residential treatment, and you want a doctor that can guide you through your healing process every step, Goldstein is your guy.

I expected that perhaps over the course of a few months of therapy and hard work I'd experience a little relief, which would have been welcome. This isn't my first go-round with therapy -- I've seen two other therapists at different institutions over the past two years with no success, and I felt nervous about starting up with yet another therapist. But after two 2-hour sessions my anger, resentment and anxiety disappeared. Completely. It's like waking up from a long and terrible nightmare. I feel immensely grateful for Ellen's expertise and the unique, effective cognitive tools implemented by all of the therapists at FGI.
