As soon as I met Dr.Kirsch I was very comfortable with him. I haven't seen a psychiatrist in years…read morebut after going back to school I wanted to go back on my medication. He's easy to talk to, very accommodating, and professional. The only thing I wish I could change would be for him to accept my insurance! Although, he did as much as he could to help me out in the financial department. He helped me find coupons for my medication, which I've never had any doctor do for me before. He's good at his job, and goes above and beyond to meet his patient's needs. I'd highly recommend him!

This place is horrible. Waited six weeks to see a doctor. I get there for them to tell me the…read moredoctor was not in. They told me they can fit me in 4 weeks later. I even had a voicemail confirming the appt from the day before. I'm such a nice guy and couldn't believe how rude they were to someone with a mental illness. I've been in mental health for 15 years and never been to an office where I was treated like that.

Behavioral health treated my spouse for more than five years. Back in 2010 they had a competent…read morepsychiatrist on staff. The original psychiatrist quit, as did several in succession--the reason might be the disagreeable owner, Errol Nadler. Mr. Nadler lacks the competence to oversee a behavioral health clinic. As a result, he has been unable to staff the facility with a real psychiatrist. Instead, he employs a nurse practitioner, who is not only underqualified but also lacks the temperament and intelligence to handle the issues to which she has been assigned. My spouse was subjected to lies, misrepresentations, repeatedly incorrect diagnoses, and resentment. At one point the nurse practitioner prescribed medication, then, to make a point, rescinded the prescription so that when I arrived to pick it up, the pharmacy personnel told me that she had called to rescind the prescription. In short, I became uncertain whether my spouse should have been treating both Mr. Nadler and the nurse practitioner rather than the other way around. Eventually, as my wife's condition worsened thanks to Behavioral Health's incompetence, my spouse had to check in to the psychiatric emergency room at Kingston Hospital. In keeping with their pattern, and given my spouse's chronic anxiety, depression, and emotional instability, Mr. Nadler then took it upon himself to write her an insulting dunning letter. Clearly his concern is your money and not your mental health. I very much wonder what the "cure rate" for Behavioral Health is. My wife went there for years with no improvement. They made things worse. Stay away from this place.
