Dr Frampton is extremely arrogant and weird and he does not know what he doing. Theres something wrong with him. And his handwriting is unreadable worst than a 4 year old.

I have been seeing Dr. Frampton for about 10 years now. He is the best..I just LOVE him! I have NEVER had to wait for my visits with him. He has ALWAYS taken me at my EXACT appt time. He takes pride on never making his patients wait for him. I also don't understand the fuss about his office workers. They have never been rude to me and I feel like they don't judge me. When I've called them to get a script sent to the pharmacy cuz my appt wasn't on time to get my meds, they give me no problems at all. I just love EVERYBODY there!

I have been going there for 5 years, and I hate it, I wait about 45 minutes after my appt time just to be told then I still have to wait which is fine, if they would just tell me ahead of time. Also every time I call them the lady at the desk is so rude to me and treats me awful. Its fine though, Im sure porter starke would you love to help me with a smile, unlike these rude ladys that answer the phone every time. So please hire better employees, because the ones you hire for the desk are the face of your business and they are driving multiple customers away! After todays experience

Dr. Frampton & his psychologists are amazing, however their office staff is horrible. They have the absolute worst attitudes, do as little as possible to help with paperwork or prescriptions and even refuse to let patients talk to anyone in management. These patients need caring, understanding people to help them through some of the most difficult times of their lives. Not sarcasm, negativity and just plain rudeness when asking a few simple questions. Some of those employees have no business being in customer service. I'm surprised the office allows that. Such a shame.

My psychiatrist, Kim Sirk, changed my life. Before, I was constantly anxious and depressed, for years. I didn't know why I was so tired and no motivation to do anything for myself. When I went there, I got blessed with having Kim Sirk work with me to find the right cocktail and dosages for me. She changed my life for the better and I am so grateful.

I really dont like seeking out mental health help. It seems like a waste of time and money most of the time. However, after seeing Michelle and Sandra my life has, literally changed for the better. Michelle is so kind and listens, reallly listens to you. Sandra is awesome if you are looking for someone who treats you as an individual and not a diagnosis. Her approach is nonconventional which in today's mental health climate is refreshing. Usually docs are quick to diagnose and push pills. With Sandra you have the option to try and resolve things naturally. If meds are required that is an option

I did not have a good first experience with Dr Frampton. Dr Frampton was arrogant, extremely blunt and rude and had no compassion in our first session. I have been to other therapist but have never experienced such rude behavior to a patient. I came in happy and in a good mood and left feeling degraded and very frustrated because of his attitude and rude comments. When I told him he was rather blunt and demeaning, he casually and proudly said this was just his way and I had to deal with it. Of course, I was too sensitive in his opinion. I believe he was insensitive. When you are hurting and build
