Another was 22 minutes to add context. I then stopped using this office. After about a week or so I started to receive harassing phone calls from a rude and obnoxious person threatening me with legal action if I didnt pay a ridiculous amount of money for time I never received care for. After refusing to pay for care I never received, they then sent a fake legal notice from the office. Check your insurance data for accuracy And choose another therapist Not only was the therapist unqualified but the quality of care wasn't good at all.

I used to see Dr. Beskina for about two years. She is an ok doctor, I wouldn't say she's friendly…read moreor personable. Our monthly appointments were always very short, she'd just ask how I was doing on the medication, our conversations probably lasted 7 minutes tops. Also, it was common that she was very late to our appointments or wouldn't call at the scheduled time which was difficult because a lot of the times I was at work and scheduled my appointment for a certain time because I would be free, then she'd call later on. I'd say the office is fairly easy to schedule with, they do most of the communications via email. However, they don't automatically charge the card on file for your visits which is annoying, so every time you have a session you have to pay using a link that's texted to you. I'd rather just have the card on file charged. Sometimes if Dr. Beskina was out I would see another female doctor named Alex who I really liked working with. She was friendly and seemed to actually care, however didn't accept my insurance and was only covering for Dr. Beskina so I couldn't change doctors. I remember Dr. Beskina also questioned my level of depression a few times, kind of downplaying it saying that if I had depression I would always feel sad, even when I was busy and distracted with other life things, which I disagree with. I never felt like I connected with this doctor, she isn't a warm person, and didn't really make me feel like she cared. I stopped seeing her a couple months ago. She also prescribed me 30 mg of Lexapro for anxiety, which is a dosage that is unheard of by every doctor I've ever mentioned it to, the highest dosage is 20 mg, so I'd take a pill and a half which all my other doctors (gp, obgyn) always questioned. However, it worked for me for a long time. Overall, I'd say my experience wasn't terrible but I wouldn't really recommend this doctor.
