They don't tell the patient or the doctors that they are making changes. I love my doctor, but I hate this office. If it weren't for my insurance, I wouldn't use it.

Second, when I try to login to the patient portal on my computer, there is an option to login with email only and they will send a code, but when I tried to login this way they did not send me an email--at all--with my code, making me unable to login. My psychiatrist, Madison, tried calling me, but it was on the line I was already on, so I was unable to call her back, and had to wait for her to ring me again. I have it noted in my portal where I want my medicine to go to, told Madison where, and confirmed with her when she read the address back to me, AND THEY STILL sent my medicine to the wrong address. This has happened numerous times before, which is incredibly frustrating especially because I am taking this medicine for my anxiety, which only skyrockets when dealing with this constant miscommunication. My anxiety is at an all-time high whenever I have to deal with this establishment, and I genuinely do not understand how they instill a fight or flight response in me every time I have to communicate with them.

In short, while the program is a great idea and most of the staff seem really great, Dr. Silver,…read morethe founder and sole decision-maker, is also one of the facilitators, and he is pompous and sexist and thus a really terrible example for vulnerable young men. Read the online reviews before you send them a cent! If you want more details, here's more of our story: On paper this program sounds fabulous. There were some minor issues from the start: the staff were often not all on the same page (especially Dr. Silver -- perhaps they just try not to loop him in whenever possible), and scheduling was incredibly challenging. More concerning was that my son, who went to the farm for a day to try out the program, reported that the participants all expressed hatred toward Dr. Silver. My son's concerns were allayed by another member of the staff, though, and we were preparing to start him in the program, when we were fortunate to get rejected before we got too deep, in time or money, all because I asked a question when Dr. Silver was not ready for one. (My first "offensive" question: If we have questions about some of what you just mentioned, should we bring them up now, or should we wait to discuss them later?) The doctor makes a lot of assumptions and doesn't take kindly to being asked to actually listen to people, which is not a great way to behave in this line of work. This included interrupting and not listening to my son when he was trying to explain how he felt about something. Dr. Silver thought he knew what my son was going to say, but he was wrong. He did the same to me, repeatedly, and also criticized everything I said. He would not answer my questions without first complaining about how I said them. Like an abuser, he blamed me for his own bad behavior throughout that meeting, and he couldn't stop himself from lashing out at me. I think he may have felt that because I had been a single mom for most of my son's childhood and had struggled accordingly, I was the cause of all my son's problems and deserved only disdain. (That's not how ADHD works, by the way.) The only person whom he didn't interrupt and to whom he listened patiently and respectfully was my husband. After the meeting, we looked through the schedule and realized that it wouldn't be possible for my son to entirely avoid the doctor. I was concerned that he might say something against me that would alienate my son. My son suggested that, due to the doctor's performance in that meeting, it was apparent that my husband should be the one to bring up such a concern. That got us booted from the program just days before my son was due to start -- with a full refund, fortunately. The doctor refused to communicate with me in any way at that point even though my husband is actually my son's stepdad, not his father (as the doctor insisted on calling him all the same). He also promised us something in his final e-mail that his staff later indicated that they couldn't deliver on. It was a wild ride! Please don't continue to facilitate this man with $$.

I was temporarily without my phone where I have the Thrive number stored, so went to google to look…read moreup the number and was super surprised to find the low rating - I've been coming here for years and have found the staff - both clinical and administrative - to be caring, attentive, kind, resourceful, and other words that I would use if I'd had an entire cup of coffee. The front desk staff greets me super kindly when I come in. I've had 3 different prescribers in my time here and they have all taken the time to get to know me and to find out if everything is working for me well, and to request updates. And greatest of all I've developed the kind of relationship with my therapist that I've always dreamed of having and never before found quite so solidly. If it were possible to award more stars I would do so. I understand that everyone has different experiences, and mine in no way diminish any disappointment that others had, and I'm sorry that they didn't find what they were looking for, but I'm glad to be able to offer a different perspective and hope the positive experience is one that others are able to get here.

Dr. Fuertes is one the most kindest, compassionate, and supportive doctors I've ever met. She asks all the right questions and actually listens and reflects on not only what the parents have to say but especially what the child has to say. It is a hard decision to medicate a child, and Dr. Fuertes takes parents' concerns very seriously. But the reality is a low dose of a medication can go a long way in helping alleviate the symptoms of a child and greatly improve their lives and those around them. I would follow Dr. Fuertes to the ends of the earth to treat my children, and I recommend her to everyone I know.

I have trusted Dr. Milan Joshi for over 25 years, he has helped me navigate my mental difficulties,…read moreI will miss him if he retires or dies. The only thing I regret is him passing me to a younger associate with limited experience, but how would you get that without the doing. When needed he has referred my family to professionals in his practice in areas like relationships, personal crisis, or life's travails. No one is perfect when it comes to dealing with the human psyche but as I said it takes time to build experience. Personally I have never experienced any real negative attributes when it comes to his staff, so yes, I recommend he and his staff.
