I refer some of my female clients to this group for their psychiatry services. I have always had good luck with their psychiatrists taking time with my clients to get to the bottom of what is really going on with their medications and symptoms. They are willing to consult with me, which is so important for continuity of care. This office is responsive and if there is something extra that myself of my clients need, they always figure out a way to make it happen.
