I am a veteran with ptsd, tbi and multiple other anxiety disorders. I've tried working with doctors at the Veterans Affairs since 2009 and none have came close to the way my sessions with Dr. Novitzky are. Thank God I found out about him on a site just like this and I've felt the best since he's been my psychiatrist. Totally worth trying out Novitzky MD Boutique if you are feeling too stressed out in life. I spent most of the past 9 years since I got out of the Army in and out of mental institutions going over the same routine and racked up over 10s of thousands in debt that the VA would not cover, going to hospitals because of panic attacks. 3 times in the beginning I still went to hospitals but that was just until he got my medication dosage right and now just talking to him and taking my medication has kept me out of hospitals and debt free. Highly recommend. Great guy. Great doc. Great friend.

Days went by, & I just never heard back from them. This was the first time in my life that I reached out for help in regards to my mental health - to have been flat out ignored by a group of professionals who are supposedly there to help people like me was infuriating, & legitimately made my situation worse. If they called my back at this point, I would refuse an appointment out of principle.

Mike T is the worst, most aggressive and rudest doctor I have ever seen or encountered in my life!…read moreHe does not listen, he will cut you off talking, over talk you and try to over medicate. I asked what side effects of a medication he wanted to prescribe me, never answered that/ refused to answer that and then got a nasty tone when I kept asking! A doctor should be able to answer what side effects of a medication they are pushing to prescribe a patient! He has a serious attitude issue when you question him. Stay far away from this doctor if you can! He fishes for appointments, esp once telemed became a thing. Every time I saw him he would make small changes up or down on medicine and make you schedule another appointment every few weeks. I did this for 2 years and was dumb of me to continue to use him, but with COVID it was hard finding other doctors. Once he couldn't tell me side effects of the medication he was prescribing me and got verbally aggressive with his tone talking to me I decided to fire him as my doctor. One of the smartest decisions I made. I would never recommend him as a doctor. I never in my life had a doctor refuse to tell me side effects of a medication they were prescribing! BIG RED FLAGS!! No wonder he was the only doctor I could find without a wait list and I wish I looked at his reviews because that would have saved me from making a 2 year bad decision.

Dr Yacoub is great. He really takes his time with me and remembers personal details about my life…read more He always asks about my boyfriend and he takes his time explaining things. However, this office has some shady billing practices. The company that handles their bills disguises their phone number to make it look like you're receiving a call from the doctors office. Once you call back, you are forced to stay on hold for over 30 minutes before you even find out what the call is even about. When I questioned the rep about calling, he said I owed $150 from over a year ago. Never received a bill and I pay my copay every month. When I questioned the rep further he said oh never mind, "disregard the call" and it looks like I have a visit that was never sent to the insurance and they will send my account over to accounts receivable to sort out all my payments. Forty minutes of my life that I'll never get back. And they woke me up after working a 16hr shift! To say I'm a little irate is an understatement.

TLDR- it's fantastic…read more This is a long review... I have been to many therapists for trauma work but no practice has helped me the way Therapy for Women has. I broke up all the reasons I think Therapy for Women is amazing below. The values: This practice is based on mutual trust. You're therapist will happily share bits of their own life experiences. This always makes me feel less alone in what I am experiencing. Additionally, the open conversations make sessions comfortable/feel less like a doctors appointment. Therapy for Women also makes a point to let you know that you can switch therapists at anytime. Besides therapy won't be effective if you aren't comfortable with who you are talking too. In the office: The atmosphere is calming and quiet. Therapists have white noise machines at their door so your conversations will never be heard by someone passing by. If you are finding it hard to share something most therapists have art supplies, cards, fidget toys or board games that you are able to play during the session. The sessions are flexible and can be tailored to what you need. This is especially great for people like me with ADHD. The online portal: This might not be something many people think is important but the online portal is so simple. The rules, expectations, and prices for the practice are shared openly once you become a client so there is transparency. If you are ever confused about something or wondering about your last bill it is easy to look up past records and chat with your therapist directly. Price: Therapy for Women does not accept insurance (this is my understanding/ I'm not sure if there are specific exceptions). Sessions are relatively expensive since insurance doesn't cover the cost. However, Jen is a therapist I could stick with for years and I feel it is completely worth the extra cost. Over all: I really think this practice is something special and I am SO happy I found it when I did.

I explained that I was looking for a provider for a friend and I had already spoken to another neuro-psychologist who explained that there are a lot of differences in neuro psych assessments and highly recommended that I ask other providers about this before deciding which one to make an appointment with (the provider who gave me this information was too far away for my friend to see). I also called another office and learned they were not taking new patients but the owner/psychiatrist there spent quite a bit of time on the phone advising me how to best help my friend. I actually offered to pay him for his time with me since he spent a significant amount of time educating me but he refused to take any payment. These experiences really highlighted how differently Rittenhouse Psychiatric operates and also highlights how focused they are on money rather than patient care. They even tell you on their general voicemail, before you even have an opportunity to speak to anyone, about their requirements for credit card up front since they don't accept insurance. Seems super creepy to me.
