About this business

We believe that mental illness is a treatable condition, but Dr. Wassef does not believe in using benzo's for that treatment due to the side effects and long term effects they have on the human brain.

I have been seeing Dr Wassef for about five years. His no nonsense approach has been good for me. He doesn't want you to tell him what you need. He wants to evaluate, diagnose, and discuss care with you. The longer you see him the better the communication becomes. He doesn't hold your hand. He expects you to do the hard work. In my opinion just how it should be.

I've had the pleasure of seeing Dr. Wassef for approx. 25 yrs. At first I thought he was a good doctor but a little rigid. I decided to stick with him as he was highly recommended by 2 friends. In the months to follow Dr. Wassef proved without a doubt his competency and concern for my well being. Over the years he has become a friend as well as medical provider. I only see him now for managing the medication he prescribes. This relationship has helped me tremendously in more ways than one.

I was referred to Dr. Wassef by my primary care physician to be tested for a more appropriate antidepressant for my situation. Even though we had a zoom meeting, with glitches on my end, I immediately connected with him. In order for him to access me, I had to answer initial questioning with yes, no, or multiple choice. If I started trying to explain, he brought me back on track. I didn’t take it as being rude, like some of the other reviews I’ve read here. After the initial testing he gave me his results, which were spot on... read more

Dr. Wassef helped me to get my normal life back. I was experiencing changes that I just could not explain & was extremely depressed. I was referred to Dr. Wassef & at first we butted heads a little. He was a bit gruff and wanted me to listen to him & I wanted him to listen to ME. Once I slowed down & listened & let him worked through his protocol he needed to use to determine my issues everything was great. We have built a good relationship & I'm very grateful for his help. His office staff is very friendly. To be honest I h... read more

I have been seeing Dr. Waseff for 8 years. I moved back from Houston in 2011 and was worried that I could not find a good doctor. I was very blessed to find him. I started seeing him when his office was in Longview in the Austin Bank Building....from the very beginning he assessed me and I was put on meds. I have never not once had a problem with the meds . him or his office staff. They have gone above and beyond for me from the beginning. The office staff is so kind and easy to work with. I couldn't imagine anyone being rud... read more

Let me say to start out with I am a senior, who has seen many doctors throughout my lifetime, all of which would prescribe various kinds of Antidepressent medications, plus zannex and sleeping pills. so much so I was a walking zombie. When I went to Dr. Wassef, I was a total mess, and had been for many years. I could not sleep but in small spurts, and then it was not restful, I was haunted by dreams from childhood trauma in every sense of the word. I could not understand why I could not remained focused. At first meeting he ... read more
