"I cannot say enough good things about Aura MD, but specifically about Erica, the Office Manager…read more In a world where healthcare can feel like an automated machine, Erica is a true gem. She consistently goes above and beyond, taking the time to talk to me and calm me down when I call in between my appointments. It is clear she truly cares about people and their well-being. This is the most outstanding service I have ever experienced with any medical provider, and Erica's presence alone makes this practice world-class." Jamie

I made an appointment but had to reschedule at the last minute due to an unfortunate pet emergency…read morethat occurred just 30 minutes before my appointment. Im not really sure why it had to happen at the time of my appointment. Sadly, I had to make the difficult decision to put my pet down. I reached out to see if they could offer any leniency with their strict cancellation policy. They had already taken a deposit ($50, if I remember correctly), but then charged me an additional $100 for the cancellation. I tried to explain my situation, but it felt like I was talking to an ai robot person on the phone who kept saying the same thing over and over like a horrible broken record. This kind of response is unfortunately pretty common and probably not surprising. I did find a new friendly psychiatrist who doesn't even have that policy, or atleast after the VERY FIRST TIME. I DIDN'T EVEN MEET ANYONE IN THE OFFICE YET. anyways yeah, i do NOT recommend this place. So thankful there's better out there! :)

Another bad experience with doctors here in Houston. Worst experience ever. Inconsistent with my…read morecare just left me hanging at a time when I really needed them. Staff wouldn't allow or let me make appointments with my providers Dr.Venkatesh or Nareeman Bashatwah and they didn't even support me too. They stopped my care because of billing and financial issues. I'm still struggling with my mental health especially after the loss of my son last year; they didn't even help me to get better and feel better and they didn't want to help me anymore and discharged me via letter and I feel like it was all about the money to them not my mental health status Didn't even have the decency to tell me or talk to me about finding care somewhere else because they were no longer going to take care of me. Left me cold turkey without any medication which put me into going withdrawal and had to get help from other doctors/providers that didn't know me and give me medication causing confusion and trust issues from them and pharmacy. Band me from excess to all of my medical records which had notes exchanged between me and Nareeman Bashatwah which backed up all of this and my medical records and history and all the medications that I was being treated with and medication history of what I was on and dosages and quantities prescribed to me.

The Woodlands Psychiatry and Counseling has been a wonderful place that has been extremely helpful…read moreto me for the past three years. Dr. Bishai and his staff are nothing but first-rate. Their kindness and patience is excellent. Scheduling appointments are a breeze and their response time is extremely quick.

Never have I had a doctor that matches Dr. Partida: professional and courteous front office staff, fast access to care (both at appointments and via phone call follow-ups and prescription refills), bilingual, culturally competent, and kind. Every now and again I stop and reflect on how much better my life has gotten since I started seeing Dr. Partida. Across the board, she's an extraordinary practitioner in psychoanalysis and medication management.

The new patient paperwork process was kinda rough, I ended up filling it out a couple times and…read morehaving to re send it in which was annoying but that was more so me not paying attention to detail VS the process being a hassle. Lol The receptionist was quick to respond to my emails regarding the new patient paperwork, and called me the next day to schedule my appointment. The availability was awesome and ease of getting a appointment was refreshing, but both times when the receptionist called me to schedule and when I was called an hour before my appointment to 'check in' staff weren't overly friendly and made no attempt at establishing any type of 'rapport.' Dr. Glenn Humphress was the psychiatric physician assistant whom I spoke with and who got to know a little bit about me and making some medication recommendations. He was very 'to the point' but was genuine/nice as well. He spoke carefully as to not offend throughout the process and was able to thoroughly talk through medication options and routes we could take. Looking forward to booking my next appointment!

What can I say that hasn't already been said here. There seems to be problems fairly consistently…read more From the bad attitudes and poor training/training retention, to getting prescriptions refilled. The portal is just so cold and impersonal. $150 for a 10 minute consultation with a PA, just to be pushed into getting upset, and feel inhuman by the staff. I've never met my psychiatrist. He is just a name in to portal. I've traded messages with the names in the portal. I would assume that in a mental health clinic, they would understand the patient issues coming in and to be able to act appropriately. NOPE. They are rude, insensitive, and are more interested in paperwork and holding your "treatment" hostage, until they get you to fill out the paperwork you have already filled out multiple times. Then they coldly just close the glass window and hide from you. Yes, that is what they choose to do to "de-escalate" a situation. They shut the glass window on you, and argue and threaten you when you re open their special window. It seems to me that this is just a pill brokerage. It seems more about the money and pushing meds. It's not about helping you solve or get control of your issue. I truly feel like they want me to go somewhere else for "treatment". Because they really do not seem to care about anything but their policies, paperwork, pushing the latest pills some pharma rep pays them off to prescribe. The last attempt to a med change was going to cost me $800 per month, when my current prescription cost less than $10. If I could give negative stars, I would.
