In patients' words

"Call in holding time is too long. We keep calling and no one answers... sent to the voicemail, only to be told that the mailbox is full."

Birdeye Review

"I feel steamrolled in every session. I’m trying to deal with serious issues and all she wants to focus on is sleep and exercise... Truly horrendous."

WebMD Patient Review for Dr. Aiying Xiao

"Dr Menon in Walnut Creek is an excellent Adolescent Psychiatrist. Great listener, transparent about her thinking regarding medical options."

Berkeley Parents Network Recommendation

"I’ve been seeing Dr Stein for many years. She keeps excellent records of meds I have tried, and is open discussing alternatives. She has a great pharmacist that calls to check up when I have new medication."
