I was taken here as a teen around 15-20 years ago. This practice had me on handfuls of pills that made me incredibly sick. I couldn't swallow properly, broke out all over my face, and would sit and literally watch the walls melt like I was on hallucinogens. When I expressed my concerns I was told to continue the dosing as usual. I finally refused and was so traumatized by this Dr that I no longer trust any doctor anywhere. Thanks dude! Great job

I haven't actually had an opportunity to visit this place, however, I Believe it will save some trouble for anyone who is planning on using their insurance to know that they do not accept it there. The minimum amount that it costs out of pocket to see one of these specialists is $230 per visit, there is also a $230 first appointment scheduling for a visit. I have been notified that it is well worth the amount to pay out of pocket to see a psychiatrist that will listen to you and consider your opinions as you seek treatment.

I was a patient of Dr. Robertson as a teen and I found him to be friendly enough... and was overall satisfied with my experience and treatment under his care. (I'm 52 now, so this was some years ago, but my memories of him and Stephanie, a psychotherapist on his staff, are warm.) I think its important to be conscious that physicians are educated to treat and they treat using pharmaceuticals most often, especially in Psychiatry.

I am thankful for all Dr. Robertson and Lisa on his staff have done for years. They are professional and have helped someone close to my husband and myself. We cannot say enough good things about them. Psychiatric care is medical care with medication. It is not counseling or physical therapy. Psychiatrists evaluate based on symptoms presented by a patient or on the patient's behalf. Deciphering which medication is best for each patient will take the knowledge of multiple cases over multiple years of expertise - and patience ... read more
