What would you tell family and friends about your experience with this provider?
The two women at the front desk are very rude and disrespectful, and they will try to talk you out of getting services or just make you feel like garbage. Everyone else is great if you can make it past the two at the front.

Sarah Rings is an excellent provider. She makes appropriate referral recommendations when needed and truly listens to my symptoms and takes the appropriate course of action. She also does an excellent job coordinating my care with Nancy Kotwicki, another therapist that works there who is also excellent. I have had nothing but great experiences with the care I receive there. The office ladies are also warm and friendly when I come in for appointments. They do a great job with scheduling.

What would you tell family and friends about your experience with this provider?
Great provider. I never feel rushed during appointments. She is very thorough and listens to me. She is on top of any medication changes as needed. Sarah is friendly, helpful, and competent. She explains things in detail and makes me feel heard when I have concerns or questions. She is excellent at documenting any changes in symptoms, which is very helpful with medication changes or adjustments. Sarah was excellent when I was struggling and made time to speak with me via phone to discuss symptoms and make necessary medication changes. I see her in addition to a therapist for individual sessions. Both are excellent, and my overall mental health has improved since I began receiving services from both.

What would you tell family and friends about your experience with this provider?
Sarah helped me reach my potential by doing one thing. Listening and believing my opinion might have value since I do know my symptoms best. A good many could learn professionally from her on how they do not know the patient by hearing them twice.
