In patients' words

"Dr. Ross is an outstanding psychiatrist. She is incredibly knowledgeable, kind, and compassionate. She truly listens, creating a calm and comfortable environment where you feel heard and supported."

WebMD review (Dr. Rachel Ross)

"It is dangerous for Adekunle Ajayi to be running any organization... The entire process takes over two months from booking an appointment... I walked out of the office."

Vitals review (Dr. Adekunle Ajayi)

"At that point, I said I would find a different location because the interaction felt unnecessarily rude... This is not how a place that claims to support mental health should treat people who are actively reaching out for care."

LocalityBiz review (LifeStance)

"My child has been going here for over a year... We notified the therapy group that due to ongoing family matters, we are unable to continue services with them. They still booked appointments for him and charged us for no-shows."
