With Dr. B, it's real-talk all the way, which has allowed me to identify my problem areas and make significant progress towards becoming my best self. I'm a busy person and want to see results from my efforts and the expenditure of my resources (i.e. money) so it's refreshing to work with a doctor who is aligned with those interests. * His help is custom-tailored to who I am as a person. I can't speak for his other patients, but I've found that Dr. B doesn't provide me with canned answers, which my previous psychiatrists have done. Instead, he took the time to observe my mannerisms, my perceived problems, etc. in order to provide personalized advice and therapy. * He's there for me. I have literally called and/or texted Dr. B on the weekends or late evenings, and he is always available to help as needed. I'm careful not to overstep my boundaries and only use this info in emergencies since I don't want to lose him as a doctor, but it's amazing to know that he's always there for me when I need him. That's all for now but, hey, don't take my word for it. Go and see for yourself. I hope this has been helpful!

Dr.Buggie is an awesome psychiatrist! I was a patient of his for a couple of years before I moved…read moreout of nyc and during that time I was able to find a lot of clarity in my life. I never felt like Dr.Buggie was a 'pill-pusher' and my only other experience with a psychiatrist had been bad, so I was relieved to find that he's great as a counselor as well as current and professional with medication. He leaves a lot of space for listening and what he does say is very thoughtful and to the point. He can be blunt, but he never comes across as judgmental. I felt able to speak honestly and be met with an open mind. Also his doggo Turok is so cute, his office is really nice, and the online scheduling is a breeze.

I found Dr. Helbich as a last ditch effort thanks to ZocDoc on a particularly low/chaotic sunday morning.. First delight he actually DID have an appointment for that VERY same day (his office hours are friday-monday) which simply put is an EXTREMELY rare occurrence to obtain a same day appointment for therapy anywhere let alone Manhattan in which month long waiting lists are more common than not, let alone having WEEKEND & evening hours!! I easily booked through ZocDoc and within the hour he called me. His calming demeanor over the phone and genuine empathy even when acquiring basic information via the phone immediately put me at ease with my anxiety. He also confirmed the appointment time as well as discussed his rate and informed me that although he isn't in network with my insurance that he would be happy to provide me an invoice for me to submit for reimbursement. He also provided detailed instructions oh how to get to his office which is VERY convienietly located in the village. I can honestly say without a shadow of a doubt that Dr. H is THE most empathic, KNOWLEDGABLE, compassionate, dedicated, solutions based, insightful, honest, brilliant, genuinely cares & wants to help, very understanding, seemingly endlessly patient, ALWAYS punctual which I particularly appreciate considering my schedule is usually pretty tight/varies from week to week. He also is a very active/engaged listener and has provided me with invaluable insights and strategies that have proven very helpful with the delicate yet extremely traumatic issues that are on my horizon. I have never looked forward to seeing a therapist before however Dr. Helbich really has been able help me in a multitude of ways that I am eternally grateful and actually do look forward to our sessions as a reprieve even though the next layers of our journey together are extremely daunting on the horizon. I would completely 1000000000000% recommend him.

Dr. Termine goes above and beyond to support and improve the lives of his patients. Thanks to his…read morecare over ten years of therapy, I've been able to manage my severe anxiety disorder, process grief and trauma, and I've learned to cope with personal and professional challenges. It's not about "med checks" with Dr. T - he takes the time to really talk with his patients and work through any number of struggles they may be facing. He's encouraged me to make so many positive changes in my life and how I see the world, and I am so grateful for his care. He's not only a brilliant psychiatrist - he's a remarkably kind human being, and I have no doubt that he's helped so many other people like me, who had no one else to turn to in their time of need. His staff (namely, Anthony), is equally kind and exceptional in his work to support any patient in need of help.

This review is long overdue. I was a patient of Dr. Termine's for approximately two years before he…read moreabruptly decided to discontinue accepting UnitedHealthcare/Optum. Throughout the pandemic, he would schedule phone appointments with me every other month, which lasted fewer than 5 minutes. He would then bill my insurance company $675, and after the plan discount and my copay, took home $227. That's $227 for 3 minutes of interacting with the patient. When Dr. Termine told me he was no longer accepting UnitedHealthcare, he said "UnitedHealthcare isn't very psychiatrist friendly." Apparently $227 for 3 minutes isn't enough for him. Additionally, he informed me of this change during one of our appointments and did not schedule a follow up or provide a referral. This was in June 2021. Several months later, I received a letter in the mail from my insurance company stating that Dr. Termine's contract would be ending with UHC in September 2021... This man could have continued providing me care for three additional months while I searched for a new doctor, but did not give me that option so that he would have space for a new patient that he could collect more money from. Also, there was a time that I was prescribed a muscle relaxer for lower back pain and I read online that there was an interaction with the antidepressant Dr. Termine prescribed for me. I called Dr. Termine to ask about the potential consequences of an interaction and what I should look out for in case of a negative interaction, and he said "Let me look that up for you." Two minutes later, he says "Yes, I see that there is an interaction." I thought umm, duh... I learned that from a simple Google search. I was looking for a little more guidance from a physician who should be able to explain the pharmacology to me beyond what I can ascertain from a search engine. Dr. Termine was basically a glorified drug dealer. If you're looking for a doctor who isn't going to spend much time with you, doesn't seem to bring much expertise to the table beyond basic psychiatry, and all you want is easy access to prescriptions, this is your guy. If you want more thorough care, I'd suggest finding someone else. I now see a wonderful physician at ColumbiaDoctors psychiatry.

I have tried many therapists and have come to realize that no matter what style the therapist is using the key determinant of whether they are good or not is how I feel after the sessions and over the period of working with the therapist.

Meredith is also very knowledgeable about CBT, which was exactly what I needed.
