I don't consider myself to be someone who needs constant therapy or medicated help and although Dr…read more MEL is a clinical psychiatrist, when I was looking for more of a counselor to talk to just because I was having a rough couple of months, she came so highly recommended that I decided to give her a try. I have never seen a therapist, psychiatrist, etc., so I don't have anything to compare to, but I do know that one visit with her was enough to convince me that she is the real deal. She is kind, understanding, patient, relatable (SO RELATABLE) - which I think is super important. She didn't think anything I was saying was stupid (and I thought it was so stupid) and just made me feel so comfortable. Her studio is clean, cozy and resembles a residential area so as to make you feel at home. She does take insurance and explained the whole process to me prior to booking my session. I will definitely see her again if I have the need and also recommend anyone I know.

I started seeing Janeen my sophmore year and continued to see her until I graduated and went away to college. I would not be where I am today without her, and I am so thankful for her. She's not your typical therapist, which was perfect for me. I highly encourage anyone to go meet with her if you are at all considering seeing a therapist.

I had a strange experience here with a counselor - P. There are many counselors so it may be just…read morethis one. She was EXTREMELY casual and even put her bare feet up on the couch next to me. I was having an issue with a friend, and she snapped, "Think about it from their point of view!" and "That must be so hard for THEM." Nothing about how I was feeling, even though I was the one in counseling. I only went to two sessions and they both ended a few minutes early. During the last session, she kept telling me she had to leave right after the session to beat traffic. She literally left the office right behind me and sped off in her car. It didn't feel like counseling - I felt like I was chit-chatting with my judgmental aunt or something.

We were referred to Dr. Ford through our trusted pediatrician at Allegro. While it took quite…read moreawhile for our child to received an assessment for learning challenges (due to a high volume of requests, we experienced this with another practice) as well) we were able to schedule the intake, assessment, and report out in one call with the office administrator. Our child had a positive experience during the assessment. Dr. Ford's professionalism, expertise, compassion and approachable style was a highlight. She provided actionable steps and solid recommendations for supporting the needs of our child, and exuded care and empathy for us as parents. We found the scheduling process easy, and the office staff very responsive. We haven't dealt with billing yet-TBD.

I understand things change as insurance claims are processed but when you want to talk to someone in the billing department, they send you to a call center and they cannot answer any questions. I asked multiple times for a statement and the attached is what I got, no explanation (cust pmt or ins pmt) for credits or charges and as previously stated multiple appointment charges for the same date with no explanation. They have now forwarded my bill to a third party, and I can't get any answers from them. The experience with the doctor and literally everything leading up to the appointment and final report I have no complaints. It was smooth. The doctor communicated well and often. But their billing department is awful.

Dr. Reilly has had a longstanding professional relationship with our family. He evaluated my…read moreyounger son five times over approximately 13 years, beginning when he was very young, and also evaluated my older son on several occasions. Because of this history, I trusted his expertise and felt comfortable returning to him when my younger son needed an updated comprehensive neuropsychological evaluation as he approached adulthood. My primary goal was to obtain an updated understanding of my son's overall functioning, strengths, challenges, support needs, and preparation for the transition from high school to adulthood, including future education and employment. On the intake questionnaire, I was allowed to submit five questions. Four focused on his overall functioning and transition to adulthood, while one addressed gender identity and emotional well-being. Although this was part of the information I provided, it was never the primary purpose of the evaluation. Unfortunately, the process became increasingly frustrating as repeated requests focused on obtaining documentation related to that one aspect of his life, despite the broader purpose of the evaluation and the extensive history Dr. Reilly already had with our family. What disappointed me most was the lack of direct communication. Over the years, Dr. Reilly had communicated with me personally, which made this experience particularly surprising. After approximately 13 years of working with our family, I would have appreciated the same level of communication, especially when questions arose about the evaluation. Instead, all communication went through his office, without any direct explanation from him. Eventually, I asked whether Dr. Reilly was willing to proceed with the evaluation rather than continue trying to obtain additional documentation. I never received an answer. After so many years of trusting Dr. Reilly with my children's evaluations, I found this experience particularly disappointing. I had expected clearer communication, a more comprehensive consideration of my son's needs, and, at the very least, a response to my final inquiry. It is unfortunate that such a longstanding professional relationship ended this way.

I'll leave the kind of review I would have liked to find when I first Googled to find a treatment…read moreclinic: The fact that they take my insurance (Cigna) brought me to Quest, but I'm so glad it did because this has been the best thing I've ever done for myself. I've been on various antidepressants (Wellbutrin, Zoloft, Prozac, Cymbalta) over the years, and they helped, but only for a while before I had to switch again, and I don't remember any of them working as well or as quickly as Ketamine Therapy. It works differently from other depression treatments - all the others just evened my emotions out and numbed me, but it's easier to be productive and socialize instead of scrolling through the internet in bed all day. The bad: The Osmind App sent me a welcome email, but no way to get into the account, and the reset password button didn't work. It was easily resolved by calling and getting them to reset/send me a password. The good (from most important to just nice touches): Mitch is a certified anesthesiologist. I'm a patient with depression and anxiety, but chronic pain patients apparently take higher dosages, so that feels important. You're hooked up to an EKG, blood oxygen monitor, and blood pressure Cuff the whole time to monitor your vital signs. They've invested in great audio setups, comfortable electric reclining chairs, heated/weighted blankets, air purifiers in every room, etc. They make sure you're as comfortable as possible. The audio/music - I can't imagine how many hours Hayley has spent curating playlists to help guide you through the treatment. They're a great resource, and she gave me her username so I can listen to them at home after my treatments. The music plays in the room when you walk in, and on the headphones during your treatment session. Hayley and Mitch are just really kind and caring people. Call it good energy, friendly, relatable, whatever you want - they take the time to listen and genuinely care and want to help. You can reach someone anytime by hitting a button on the table next to you. They will check on you during your session, but you're mostly alone. Whenever I've needed to speak with Mitch or Hayley, I've just hit the button (it lights up to let you know they've been notified), and they're always there immediately. Before you begin your treatment, Mitch will place the IV (He's great, you'll barely feel it) and give you some anti-nausea meds through the IV. He will also give you some oral anti-nausea meds after your session if needed. Each patient gets their own eye mask. It's usually sitting in the treatment room waiting for me when I get there, but one session, they forgot it, and when they brought it into the room, it was in a Ziplock bag with my name on it, which I thought was really great for sanitary purposes. Scheduling has been easy. I arrange my appointments over text. The waiting area is nice and spa-like. You're not supposed to eat or drink anything for several hours before your treatment, so it's nice that they have water, tea, coffee, and candy available after sessions. Parking is easy, and their office is in an office park. I also don't really see other patients, so I don't know if they stagger patient sessions, but either way, it's very discreet. What it's like: It's different for everyone, but I enter a dreamlike state. I can still focus enough to lift the blindfold and check the time or something, but I have a better experience when I go where my mind takes me. *Uber or have someone else drive you. You do not want to be behind the wheel after your treatment. The feeling is similar to being drunk.

We were expecting our first child and were keen to have a low intervention hospital birth. We had not considered hypnobirthing but found the sessions with Nancy and the practice at home invaluable at the birth. Nancy had a calming confident presence during the birth which was short and intervention free. My husband had been reluctant to have a Doula as he was worried this would take away from his support role. Nancy was great at helping us to work together as a couple through the birth. We had an amazing birth experience which brought us closer together as a couple and we are both in no doubt, that it wouldn't have been such a positive experience without the preparation and support Nancy provided.

During labor, we did what we practiced and the mother later reported that this was the most helpful tool for managing the intensity. When a complication arose in labor, there was not a lot of time and several fast decisions had to be made. Having Nancy there as a trusted resource made all the difference. All it took were a few adamant nods of approval from Nancy to help me feel like the right decisions were being made. This helped avoid critical time delays since I normally would have wanted to spend more time to understand what was going on in more depth before making any decisions. In the end everything worked out and the right decisions were made. Thank you Nancy!
