DO NOT BOTHER contacting if you have ever been hospitalized. it is their company policy to refuse to see any patient that has been hospitalized until AFTER three months. They call themselves "Comprehensive" except they literally refuse people without ever even meeting them? Truly a scam company, I don't know how any self-respecting doctor would work for such a company. Avoid like the plague! read more

They are an awesome group of individuals that really care about my mental health. I see Dr. DeSantis in Venice, who has taken great care of me and has worked with me through many hardships. I've also had the pleasure of meeting with a few of the psychologists in the group. Great experience all around. read more

No way would I give them my credit card. And how nd how can give them 5 day advance notice for cancellation-as if I know when I will sick or an emergency cam up! They are also the most disorganized company I have ever encountered. Getting in touch with the right person to fill a script or make an appointment is a circle jerk. No answers the phone there other than the receptionist who connects you to voicemail. Eventually (sometimes days later) you get a call back. Who ever is setting policy for the company should get his or her head examined. read more

AVOID LIKE THE PLAGUE! I'm in Tamarac Fl. and called my local office and I get someone from the Venice, Fl. office calling to set my appointment as a new patient when Sarasota is the corporate?? For 3-days, she couldn't set the appointment because Tamarac had not forwarded her the calendar of the Tamarac doctors or the resident(s). Then, when she's ready to make the appointment, she tells me, as a new patient, I won't even get to see the doctor, but, I get to meet with the "resident" who only works 1/2 a day hours and has limited availability which would cause me to lose probably a half day of work. All that considered, I still was willing to set the appt, at their convenience which would have cost me a half a day of work smack in the middle of day before I could get back to work, but, then she checks my insurance and can't confirm what my insurance told me which was the doctor was listed as accepting Blue Cross and my co-pay should be $50. Still, while she worked on that and would have to get back to me, I was willing to set the appointment. But, then, the punchline. To set the appointment as a new patient, over the phone, she wanted my credit card number in advance. Now, that's security! Whatever happened to HIPPA compliance, let alone financial compliance? Give your credit card number over the phone to a stranger? Is their receptionist bonded? And, that's not all. The worst is yet to come!! This money-hungry could care less doctor firm told me I would have to agree to a $100.00 charge on my credit card if for some reason I cancelled the appt less than 5-days in advance. Can you believe that? Never in my life has a doctor demanded a credit card number over the phone in advance or had terms like that where I get charged $100 to cancel an appointment, less than 5-days in advance. I can understand a service charge or something. But, what if I got a flat tire or something. Stuff happens. What if I was sick or there was a family emergency, 2-days ahead of my appointment.? They want to jam my credit card $100.00 and I don't even get a full appointment with the specialist, just a resident! IS THAT CRAZY? THESE PEOPLE ARE THE CRAZY ONES WHO NEED A PSYCHIATRIST! CROOKS! MONEY HUNGRY DOCTORS IN IT FOR THE MONEY! BAD NEWS! Just like so many of the reviews I've seen. STAY AWAY! UNBELIEVABLE! THEY ARE BAD NEWS! read more

I, too, have a big problem with giving them my credit card number over the phone and before I have even been to the place. They will charge $100 if appointment is not cancelled 5 days in advance. Too risky. I need to see a doctor but I hesitate because of the credit card situation. read more

This practice has an online new patient intake form to complete and they will supposedly contact you within 24 hours. I completed it thoroughly with my current contact information and waited over 48 hours. I still have heard nothing. It does not matter how competent they may or may not be, I will not give this practice my business. read more

I just moved here from Minneapolis, and found this practice on Yelp. I met Dr DeWolf, and found him to be a very knowledgeable psychiatrist. His personality is very approachable. He was very thorough and despite being 15 minutes late, I did not feel rushed. I look forward to having a long standing professional relationship with Dr. DeWolf. Btw- the office staff is terrific too! read more

I had good experience with them for anxiety depression, however, they refuse to see daughter. I tried twice to get her in to see someone for bipolar disorder, because she deserves a good doctor. The first time they charged me for the appointment and told me they weren't going to help because they don't have inpatient services. I admitted her to Bayside, brought her back and was refused again. Devastating having to face that she has to see doctors that aren't as good because she actually needs help. read more
