I have been seeing Dr. Saben for many years. He has helped me immensely with what was debilitating anxiety, depression and PTSD. He has a very kind and caring manner, and I'd recommend him to anyone. I dread the day he retires!

Dr. Saben was my doctor for many years. The only reason he is no longer my doctor is because I moved to a different state. He is kind, very knowledgeable and made me feel that he was always there for he if I needed him.

Caring, responsive doctor – Dr. Saben is friendly and caring, if rather abrupt or straight to the point, as others have mentioned.

That being said, if you know exactly what you want or need and have been taking the same meds forever, he's a great doctor to switch to. ... read more

I wasnt looking for a drug dealer, I was looking for a good doctor, and was open to options other than drugs. But he asked the questions of past medications and didnt give me a chance. I called Dr. Laurence in hopes of finding a new Doctor. When he ask about my past perscriptions, I told him what I had taken. He abruptly said, "I dont give that stuff out, youll have to find someone else,good luck" and hung up.
