This "Dr" dropped me as a patient after I was hospitalized to a forced inpatient stay at the hospital for a breakdown. BEWARE.

I've been a patient of Dr. Chawla's for several years. I've struggled with bipolar depression for…read moreyears. Dr. Chawla usually spends a decent amount of time with me via our phone appointments. However, her affect is somewhat deflated. She doesn't seem very interested in what I report and I feel like she usually makes small tweaks to my medication that haven't really helped. I once sent a somewhat important email to her office staff and asked they pass it along. I never received a response via email. Also, it seems a bit annoying that I have to re-sign consent forms every year, but perhaps there's a law on that I'm not familiar with. I believe since COVID, she only does zoom or phone appointments, rather than in person. I recently saw another psychiatrist that ordered gene sight testing to determine if my medication dosages are appropriate. I had no idea that was an option. Thus, it seems other practices are more advanced in their knowledge of how to treat mental health symptoms. TL, DR: If you're OK with the status quo of your mental health, Dr. Chawla might be able to help. If you're looking for improvement, I'd seek other options.

Dr. Chawla's bedside manner and overall interest in my teenage child is nonexistent.

Additionally, the office staff is incredibly unprofessional, disorganized, and defensive. On multiple occasions I requested that Dr. Chawla call my teenager for appointments, instead of my phone number. And randomly, every few months, she would call my number. This resulted in missed appointments, which i would be charged $100 for. When I challenged the fee, Dr. Chawla and the office staff (most notably Arianna) never took responsibility for their error, let alone correct the error moving forward. The majority of her recent reviews are all rock-bottom 1-stars, and I'm not surprised.

I have been a patient at Stillpoint for well over 7 years. I've recommended them to many friends…read moreand family members throughout the years. Never had any issues. I received a voice message from Kim @ Stillpoint in June 2020 regarding 2 office visits in 2019 that were never paid by my insurance company. I was told that the insurance company needed to verify some information. I called my insurance company and was told that I needed to verify if I had other medical insurance. I told them that I didn't and gave them the dates Stillpoint said they weren't paid. I was advised by the insurance company that they would process the visits and send payment to Stillpoint. I called Kim back and left a voice message advising what I was told by the insurance company. I asked her to call me back if she needed any additional information. Fast forward to August 2020. I received a letter from my doctor stating he would have to drop me as a patient due to non payment. Now I didn't hear anything about these missing payments until I received the voice message from Kim on June 2020. I'm under the impression that I resolved the issue because I did not receive a callback or mailings regarding it. What it comes down to is that Stillpoint had contacted me, a loyal 7 plus years patient, once in June 2020 regarding payments not received for 2 dates in 2019. I did exactly what they asked and rectified the issue with my insurance company and left a voice message letting Kim know it had been resolved. Instead of contacting me if there was still an issue, they decide to drop me. This type of behavior I can do without. Not to mention, they're dealing with people who have mental health issues, who are trying to make it thru a pandemic which is causing extreme anxiety and depression and now I need to find another psychiatrist to manage my medications. I would not recommend Stillpoint to my worse enemy.

Stillpoint Mental Health has been a tremendous asset to us during our daughter's difficult mental…read morehealth journey. Specifically, Dr. Vermani is easy to talk to and listens to our concerns. When in crisis, he is always available to check in with us and/or schedule an appointment. I appreciate his honesty, compassion, and communication. He always calls back, responds to our concerns, and has our best interest at heart. I have had nothing but good experiences with the staff, despite less than stellar insurance that caused all of us misery. I would highly recommend this practice.
