I am beyond disappointed with the non-collaboration at this clinic in particular having to do with…read morethe psychiatric nurse, Kristy. I am going through a very heavy circumstantial family loss that has been triggering back into another loss. Very destabilizing and somebody of her alleged caliber should know this and she chooses not to help in circumstances where she could actually make a difference, but she's a shame based person she wants to shame you for going through some circumstances that should've never been happening anyways she will not work with you. She has only her way of doing stuff she's super rigid. I fail to see why she even exist in this place...still clear of this place. If you care about your authenticity and being confident as a human being, please don't let this woman make you feel less then cause she is very capable of that and us that suffer from various mental health issues should be actually protected not shamed.

Dr Eric Speare is the best psychiatrist one could hope to find. I have been seen by many…read morepsychiatrists in my 5.5 decades and Dr Speare is truly gifted. He has made all the difference in the world to me. He is so intelligent, knowledgeable and perceptive that he can tell what a patient is struggling with and what medication would improve their issues very accurately and in such a short time. Dr Speare has an excellent personality for a psychiatrist: He is comfortable to be with and talk to, a great listener and you know he really cares about you and your well-being. He sincerely wants to help you and your life greatly improve and he is committed to that goal. Dr Speare is brilliant, he is a gift from God and I am so blessed that I found him.

Brynn confirms so many negative stereotypes of mental health professionals. Although it's not a…read moremandatory trait, compassion does feel like it should be a given for someone in her job. i found her completely lacking in it. shes a blunt reminder that psychiatrists are here to keep writing prescriptions, not to help you. I can't help but also notice that the majority of her positive reviews are either fake accounts or her personal connections posting more than once.

Best way to describe the type of care or lack of care my mother has received has only made her…read morequality of life worse. My mom began seeing Brynn Bailey about 9 years ago after I took her to be evaluated and admitted to a psychiatric treatment facility in the hospital. She used to require my mom to see a therapist in order to keep prescribing heavy doses of medication. Unfortunately she quickly disregarded the requirement that my mom continue to see a therapist for talk therapy and still proceeded to keep her on very high doses of 4 medications without seeing her in person for over 5 years, (this started before the pandemic ). There is no collaboration with her medical doctors which is essential to improving someone with a serious mental health condition. It should be required that her patients should actively participate in their treatment especially with this level of mental health decline, my mom should be regularly seeing a therapist to help with her mental health struggles, not just being over medicated. My mother is elderly and now addicted to Klonopin prescribed on top of 3 other serious medications. Brynn Bailey has not physically seen my mom in over 5 years but continues to prescribe heavy doses of medication that has affected her quality of life! Her medical physician's have advised my mom to lower her dosage to help her with improving her health but she won't work on lowering her dosage and Brynn Bailey has not EVER been in contact with my mothers primary doctor who has been trying for years to get her to lower her dosages because her quality of life has drastically decreased, she sits in a chair all day because she is OVER medicated. Please take your loved ones to another doctor who will follow up with the patients medical physician as well as requiring them to see a therapist if they are in need of this level of medication. She sadly is giving out heavy medication after a 15-20 minute FaceTime call. It's too late for my mom her life is already being cut short praying this information helps others not to be affected the same way or any family member who is caring for their loved one to endure the difficult struggles or repercussions of Brynn Bailey's treatment plans!

I've since moved out of state and have been hard pressed to find a comparable provider. She helped me through many dark days, had empathy and compassion, and was always engaged in providing high standards of care at every step of the way. This facility was out of the way for me but I chose to go here because of the quality of care I received. She really cared and there was never a time I didn't have a good experience with my visits, Holly, or the office staff. I have recommended Holly and this facility to others I am close to.

And…read morethen follow-up appointments are $500 an hour or $250 every half hour, and they will not renew your prescriptions if you don't actively have regular appointments. The brain scan and the counsel and the supplement advice I received were helpful to know, but I think I could have gotten a lot more out of those $5,000. It really didn't tell me anything new and they didn't prescribe me anything revolutionary. Even though I can see what's going on with my brain, you still have to think your way through this. So I don't think if you're considering whether you should spend $6,660 at the Amen Clinic or invest it in cognitive behavioral therapy, I say you'd be better off using it on therapy. It was an interesting experience, albeit expensive and not so fruitful, but I think the worst part is the not getting prescriptions renewed because I don't want to pay 500 bucks an hour. I found it's not a true "care" or solution place- it's a profit center primarily, with short-term focus and poor priorities for human care.
