The providers are great if you can get in touch with the front desk to make an appointment, which is nearly impossible!

After a couple years with a provider in Concord we decided to do some research and found this practice for my son and I am so glad we did. We will travel to Pineville no problem because the provider Jeff Woodard my son is treated by is amazing. The front desk staff are responsive and polite and so helpful. Would certainly recommend this practice provider.

I was referred to this office by a family therapist about 2 years ago. He actually called one of the doctors there & although the doctor had a full schedule of clients, he accepted me as a new patient anyway. I thought that was very kind. At my 1st appointment, I knew why this office came so highly recommended. The front desk staff are very polite & accommodating. Rarely, do I have to wait...usually my names being called before I have a chance to sit down! Thats such a welcome change compared to wait times at other medical offices! I received the most detailed attention from the doctor &

I couldnt be more grateful for Dr. Betancourt and Diana Remenar, PA-C. They are both extremely attentive, compassionate with their patients. They are knowledgeable and make sure that you are comfortable and understand your treatment plan and medications. It takes time to find a psychiatrist that fits well, and I was lucky PFBHNCwas the first place I visited when I moved to Charlotte. If anyone is deciding which psychiatrist or psychologist to see, I would highly recommend going to PFBHNC first.
