 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Facilities like this are so needed! They are such a great resource for quick, emergency access to mental healthcare without having to wait months for an appointment. They were able to diagnose and begin treatment immediately. After several months, they seamlessly transition you to their other facility for ongoing care. Highly recommend!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I visited a few different psychiatric clinics over the past month and this one by far has been the best.  The staff seems to genuinely care about their patients and they all have a good attitude. Their treatment planning is great and I can tell they are serious about providing help and not just throwing medication at you. I definitely recommend.
