When they shut down a couple of years ago we had no choice but to follow her to Meridian Psychotherapy. We have had no problems with Meridian. We are actually pretty happy with them thus far. It's a small building in Virginia Beach. I love the fact that it's more of a small homey feel vibe instead of a clinical sterile vibe. The employees at the front desk seem nice enough. Not overly friendly. I love Danielle. She really listens to our concerns and is very friendly and relatable as well. The only downside is that it's a bit further than where I live. But I'm definitely a fan so far!

She takes the time to listen without rushing, asks thoughtful questions, and works with me to find the best treatment plan instead of just handing out prescriptions. What I appreciate most is how approachable and compassionate she is. I've had psychiatrists in the past who felt cold or clinical, but Dr. Steward has a warm and supportive energy that makes it easy to open up about even the hardest topics. She explains things clearly, makes sure I understand my options, and I always leave feeling more hopeful and supported. If you're looking for a psychiatrist who is professional, empathetic, and genuinely invested in your well-being, I highly recommend Dr. Keesha Steward. She has been a true blessing in my mental health journey.

This by far is the most unprofessional practice. The entire staff goes to lunch at the same time. Why require patients to be early when the office is clearly closed.

I saw her once a month, and during Covid, I saw her more frequently with other issues. The transformation is incredible and I've found am amazing peace with her guidance. In fact, she helped me with multiple problems, and this has increased the quality in all my relationships with family, friends and my Self. The quality of care did not change, nor lessen, moving to videoconferencing. I plan on continuing videoconferencing because of my schedule. Dr. Gudor is very gentle in her approach but is also very skilled at challenging me when she believes (and I agree :) that) I'm ready. I trust her judgement and direction because she is an excellent listener. I also really like that she gives me book and video recommendations.

Updating my review to respond to the owner since I wasn't clear enough before…read more Number 1: I didn't get a prescription from TWO DIFFERENT PROVIDERS. I got prescription #1 for my anxiety and prescription #2 for ADHD. BOTH were always prescribed by the SAME doctor for years. It wasn't until Dr. Denise came to the practice that I started having problems getting refills on medication I've been getting prescribed for YEARS. SHE was the one who advised me to get my anxiety medication from another doctor because she would not refill it for me. It has been months since I've had a refill. She DID NOT disclose to me that if I get my ANXIETY medication (prescription #1) from another provider (because she refused to refill it) that she would also refuse to refill prescription #2 for my ADHD. These are TWO TOTALLY DIFFERENT medications. I was not trying to get "extra" or cheat the system, I ran out of my anxiety meds and needed a refill. My last refill was back in MARCH and I was only prescribed 10 pills. Dr. Denise refused to refill my prescription for some reason but advised me to get it from another provider, which I did. I was simply following the advice that Dr. Denise gave me to get my regular meds that I've been taking for years. After following her advice to get prescription #1 (anxiety meds) elsewhere, she later on refused to refill prescription #2 (adhd meds). I have been going to this practice for a few years and have loved it here when Dr. Charlene Bell was still working here. Dr. Bell was attentive, caring and actually LISTENED to patients instead of coldly rushing them off calls after not listening or helping them at all like Dr. Denise Olutoyin Akinyanju. During an appointment with Dr. Denise, I was advised to seek my anxiety prescription refill from another provider. What was not disclosed to me (and should have been) was that doing so would result in my ADHD prescription being denied. I only learned this AFTER I needed a refill on my ADHD medication, at which point I was abruptly told to get all my prescriptions elsewhere. Had I been given that information UPFRONT, I would have just gotten both from that other doctor right then and there. Now I have to schedule ANOTHER appointment with that doctor and miss more time at work. This lack of communication disrupted my treatment yet again, since this happens often with Dr. Denise, and felt very unprofessional. The lack of clear communication, paired with what appears to be punitive action taken after I followed her guidance, has significantly impacted my care. I believe this conduct was unethical, possibly retaliatory, and clearly not in line with patient-centered practice. Additionally, this is not the first time I have experienced undue difficulty receiving long-standing, necessary prescriptions from Ms. Akinyanju, despite a stable history with these medications. I previously reached out to a higher-level manager at the practice about similar concerns and received no response. By the looks of other reviews of this practice, echoing the same treatment by the SAME provider, this is clearly not a one-off situation for this provider. I have been a patient for years with no issues but now I've since decided to file a formal complaint with the Virginia Board of Medicine and have discontinue my care at this practice. If you're considering care here, especially for long-term medication management, I would recommend giving that a second thought.

T.M I just wanted to add to your comments how I went…read morethrough the same issue with this business cancelling my first appointment with them and no one called to tell us. Their claim was that I didn't fill out the paperwork online, so they just went ahead and canceled our appointment. My husband took off from work to take my child to the appointment and their excuse was the same as yours. So, I thought I was wrong. Now if you read my first review ( by the way this is my second replying to yours), you will see how terrible this business is. First, their administrative assistant or whom ever she is or was, took my credit card and kept charging me without checking with my insurance. I called my insurance and they told me that I only have to pay $35 for copay. She was charging me $130.95 per visit, so when I called my insurance and added the admn to the call, she kept arguing with the insurance agent and her excuse she did send a claim and it was the insurance fault. This woman had no clue how to run a business because my insurance told her to submit a claim and apparently she didn't know how to do it and that's why she charged me the full price as if I didn't have insurance. Now, to get my money back is another story. She charged me $130.95 twice and $70. My insurance told her that I only need to pay $70. So when I asked her to refund me the $261. She couldn't do the math and refunded me $95.00 x2. I have no clue how she rid her math. This is charging me $70 twice. But I couldn't convince her that she's wrong and she told me that she worked for a bank, the same bank I use. I went to my bank thinking that I WAS WRONG AND MAYBE I COULDN'T DO MATH....lol. so my bank agent insisted that I need her to refund me $70 back if she's only giving me 2 refunds of $95. I went back taking the chance that I maybe arrested or something like that because the first time I was there, she called security even though she was the one yelling g and screaming in my face to count my math and look at the statement she emailed me. This women was bold and vulgar in the way she was conducting herself. So, when I went back, she was already gone and couldn't fi d her to explain to her what my bank said. The lady at the desk give me the owner's info because the admin wouldn't give it to when I asked to speak to someone else that can understand math better than her.....I'm a teacher and have a strong background in math. But that's not the case because this was simple math. Anyway, I finally got the email address of the owner. Those owner was not a business person that knows how to handle his customers. I believe he's in this just make money in any shape or form. I had lingering emails with him that went no where. I didn't get my $70 yet because he first offered to send me a check and I agreed, but when I made the comment about my credit card was charged multiple times, it generates interest. So he went ahead to tell me that he will throw an additional $30 for the interest and I believe his way of apologizing. I accepted the check and told him I was not looking for charity but only my money, so he insisted. The final straw was that. But then he tells me that I have put a fraud claim through my bank which I did and he wanted me to cancel it. My response to him was, after I get the check I will cancel the fraud. I believe that if he did send the check, things would have been fine, but he turns around and tells me to go ahead and choose which way, i was done with this long lingering issue with this business and deal with my bank. To this time, I still don't have my money back because my bank is doing an investigation and they are dealing with people that probably don't know how to reverse a payment and that's what started from the get go!!!!!!!!!! To keep it's only $70 but gguess what, KARMA is....you know what!!!! $70 can't make ANYONE rich....I'm ok as I told the owner in an email " I'm easy to work with". Sometimes I spend $70 on things I don't even count, but for this bbusiness, they will pay more than that and I do know for fact, they will. I'm from Morocco and lived in the USA for a while and I have never been treated like this in my life. It's a shame and I believe in good dedeeds. So, it's not much but your reputation will suffer!!!! Good luck with your business!!! Mrs. Knight
