I've been seeing Dr. Edward Oklan for over 10 years now. He has always been a great guy, nice with…read morea good sense of humor. He also is really skilled. Previous psychiatrists I had before Dr. Oklan were nowhere are skilled as he is. Experience and expertise go a long way. I am stable and in great care in regards to my psychiatric needs, thanks to him. He listens well and uses what he hears and sees to make good judgement on the next step forward for me. 5 stars all the way. He's the best in the business.

Edward Oklan was my son's psychiatrist in 2013 and 2014. My son had schizophrenia and was…read moreprescribed 200mg higher than the international consensus for safe dosages of Seroquel (generic form). For another patient, Oklan told me he prescribed 2000 mg daily, which is 1200mg over the safe dosage consensus. Both dosages were well over the 600 mg highest dosage tested by the pharmaceutical manufacturer of Seroquel. Since that time, I discovered that Dr. Oklan has received payments from the drug company for prescribing Seroquel since before 2014; averaging around $110,000 a year while the drug was still in patented form. My son committed suicide one year after being put on antipsychotic drugs alone. During 2013 through 2015, there was no suicide ideation or risk of suicide put on the drug information sheet, nor were we warned about this risk from taking the drug. I believe that accepting payments from the drug company strongly influences clinical decision making and is unethical and irresponsible.

You'll find no one else even close to Dr. Steve Balt, in terms of his expert skill, sincere empathy…read morefor his patients, and uniquely effective approach to mental health treatment.  If you've grown exasperated or etiolated with other providers who just won't *listen* to you; if you're looking for someone to selectively challenge your thoughts to inform your "gestalt" to you and others, as appropriate; or, if you just need someone you can trust to have your best interest at heart, I can personally attest to the fact that you should see Dr. Balt now, while you can. The rough can only obscure a gem like Dr. Balt for so long.  Dr. Balt's style precludes traditional "paper" diagnoses, which, at least to me, makes the most sense because no one can maintain with any level of confidence that their thinking and psyche can be wholly and correctly labeled in a box. Let's face it: our thinking is fluid, as our issues may be of mercurial function. Dr. Balt not only fully understands this truth but clearly relates to it in his treatment, which I would describe as medication-assisted psychotherapy.  Seeing Dr. Balt every other week since Summer 2018 has been perhaps the most rewarding experience I've accrued in that same timespan. I had seen other providers, but only Dr. Balt recognized my issues as specific to only me, as a person.  Dr. Balt's "collective" approach assures that you won't be stuck scarfing down tablets for reasons you don't fully understand or agree with, and compromise is the name of the game when loggerheads nears broaching.  Without delving into my personal issues, suffice it to say that complexities have been manifold, and I've honestly actually come to eagerly await each and every meeting with Dr. Balt!

I take a conservative and rational approach to medication management and I am willing to work with patients and their other providers (therapists, primary care physicians, other psychiatrists) to simplify or reduce complicated medication regimens.
