Dr Mizani is a miracle. When my therapist insisted I change…read morepsychiatrists from my last one to Mizani, I was reluctant because I thought "all psychiatrists kinda suck, I might as well deal with the one I have because it doesn't get much better." I have dealt with quite a few psychiatrists in my time, including at treatment centers; and all but her have supported this idea I had that psychiatrists have no emotional intelligence, but just a purely clinical view of the human brain and don't view patients as people to listen to but subjects to examine and push drugs on, always thinking they know better and saying insensitive things to invalidate my real struggles. But not her. She LISTENS. God, I have never met a psychiatrist who listens and really LISTENS like her. She cares what you have to say and takes everything you say seriously and into account before all of her carefully thought out decisions. She makes me feel seen, respected, taken seriously, cared for, and listened to. That's a rare find. And she really knows what she's talking about; her knowledge of psych and medication is very impressive beyond expectations. As soon as I started seeing her, she was able to immediately help what was wrong with my meds and change things around to the right mix. She always lays out multiple options (some containing adding meds, but always presenting alternatives and respecting any apprehension to meds), and takes the time to listen and weigh things out to whatever you feel is best for yourself. She helped refer me to mental health treatment in August when my depression was at its worst, and though the treatment was incredible, the psychiatrist there just couldn't compare. It reminded me of how lucky I am to have Dr Mizani, the best of the best. I have depression, anxiety, and a past of an eating disorder and she has been nothing but helpful and wise. These problems are big in my life but she has kept them under control like no other, and when they get less manageable, she finds the right solutions (like when she strongly encouraged me to go to treatment and provided those resources). Finding mental health professionals who know how to handle eating disorders and don't say totally triggering and incorrect things about them is surprisingly difficult, but she is one of the few who knows what she's doing and doesn't say triggering things. If you're struggling with your mental health and like me have fear around psychiatrists and their lack of emotional intelligence, please give Dr Mizani a try. She's different. She's gold.

I was referred Dr. Mizani when I was pregnant, dealing with anxiety and let's face it, I exhausted…read moretalking to my girlfriends about my issues and marriage. I would say I am a type A personality and I like things under my control. Pregnancy, however, turned my emotions on its head. Thanks to a surge of hormones, everything made me highly irritable and aggravated. I knew, or hoped, that it was just the pregnancy. I decided to seek help because I wanted my pregnancy to go smoothly. Dr. Mizani was the perfect person to hear me out. She heard me out and used her expertise to see patterns in my actions and offered me ways to approach concerns I had differently. She got mad with me, when I was mad, and she validated me just enough that it opened the gates to tell her more of what I was dealing with. She was able to discuss sensitive issues about my marriage that didn't make me feel embarrassed. She is highly professional and very experienced with working with personal matters and intimate matters of the heart and soul. I am so glad I was able to have her be my doctor . She is so well read, researched and up to date in her therapeutic approach. I have since referred two other friends to her who are also equally satisfied and comfortable with Dr. Mizani.

My experience with dr Goldenberg has been exceptional. My Insurance does not cover it , but it is…read morewell worth having a psychiatrist that fully understands medications and understands the importance of letting the patient have input on what medication he/she feels comfortable with instead of pushing a single "best" med . Previously my psychiatrists would always tell me how bad certain behaviors or feelings were . Dr Goldenberg does not make you feel guilty about things you have done or thoughts you have . There is an issue , okay let's address it instead of making you feel even worse about things. Dr Goldenberg is always quick to respond through email and educates you about the side effects you may experience so you are not thinking what the heck is going on here ? Long story short He does his job really well . He is not a psychologist do not expect therapy . But he is there for his patients ready to answer your emails And give you options when it comes to meds . He makes himself available and easy to contact .

Dr. Goldenberg is a highly trusted colleague, effective psychiatrist, and respectful provider. I…read morehave worked with him for a few years to date, in a variety of treatment settings including residential treatment, intensive outpatient and day treatment, and private practice outpatient settings. I'm a psychologist that works with personality disorder and trauma, and I continue to refer clients to him due to the high quality of care he provides and expert consultation. When Dr. Goldenberg takes a case, he engages in ongoing consultation with all treatment providers to ensure consistency, continuity of care, and overall highly effective treatment all around. He never assumes authority over any other provider, and engages with each as colleagues supporting each other's work for the best outcome for a client. As a colleague, he is an invaluable resource on every case he works on. All of my clients have reported very positive experiences and successful outcomes with their treatment with him. They often report he is highly respectful of their needs and wishes, never pressures any client to take medication or engage in an intervention, and offers multiple options and perspectives on how to achieve their goals. He is very kind and approachable, and clients report they trust him to work in their best interests and feel very safe in his care. If you are a client or a referring provider, Dr. Goldenberg will certainly exceed your expectations and provide expert care and supportive treatment.

My personal life for me is, well personal, and I don't enjoy writing about it. But if I can help one person, then I will do it. I am just a tad loony tunes and without Dr. Bierman I just would not get out of bed. I have been with him for years. He has seen me through cancer, surgeries, more cancer, more surgeries, the fall out from chemo and other drugs given to me. He has been my first call when I am sick. He is not a medical doctor (he is but his practice is psychiatry), but he is always my first call. I am not talking about a cold, but serious, life changing medical issues. He has saved me more than once. I don't take a pill without talking to him first. He knows everything and had I not talked to him I know that on at least one occasion, I would have been very ill with a mix of drugs that just did not mix. Most doctors really do not know what you can take with something else, this is especially true when they are dealing with someone who has more medical issues then I wish to count. I don't take over the counter without his approval. Dr. Bierman has kept me off pain killers. Going through chemo and the aftermath is not always fun. Bad things can happen, but are needed to save someone's life. All, that is 100%, of the people that went through chemo with me, that I still know, all take some sort of narcotic. I don't blame them, but I have stomach issues that would make for trouble. I talk to Doctor Bierman and with his help I have gotten through all of this, without narcotics. It has saved my colon from some potential serious problems. Dr. Bierman cares about me. Of this I am sure. He calls to check on me, he will see me last minute, he learns about whatever new and fun illness I have. He deals with the fact that, as I said, I am a bit loony tunes. If one medication is not working, he moves on. He ponders and thinks about what is best for me. He knows more about me than anyone on this planet and I can be a challenge. I hate going to doctors, I don't even see my primary care physician. I am just burned out on all of it. Instead I see the one doctor that will help me do what I want, spent as much time as I can with my grandson and my family. If you need someone, he is the man you want. He just is.
