I went to her office to discuss different medication options and treatment for my tween after she was ALREADY evaluated for suicide following suicidal ideations stemming from a new SSRI. We were actively taking steps for treatment and have a team of mental health professionals guiding us. She spent less than 10 minutes with my daughter, then immediately demanded she be admitted to a private mental health hospital, for a 7 day lock-in and no contact with her loved ones. Or I could take her to ECMC (to be placed with mentally unstable 12-18 year olds of all genders), if I didn't want to pay an exorbitant amount of money for an unnecessary stay at a private facility. I found it fascinating that Krista felt like she had more insight into my daughter, in such a small time frame, than the team of professionals who evaluated and cleared her days prior. Those professionals worked closely with the guidance team at her school (who have been involved with her mental health for 2 years already), spent over an hour speaking with my daughter and were incredibly thorough. I valued their opinion more than this woman who barely spent any time with my child, and she did not have any insight from those who have already been working with my tween. I did not even make an appointment for this reason, we just wanted some assistance with medication. Immediately I contacted other services to have her reevaluated and SURPRISE! Not a single person agreed with her hasty, incomplete and wreckless recommendation. Krista chose an extreme response that would have inflicted more trauma and issues on my child than would have solved- and she did so with minimal information. The next day she called me and threatened to call an ambulance and take my child by force if I didn't follow her recommendation and was so angry when I told her my daughter was immediately reevaluated and cleared. She then contacted the office who gave me a second opinion, deeming hers inadequate, to scold them for not following her orders. But they had already been working with my daughter and had more insight than Krista. Overall, we had three evaluations for suicide risk, all by qualified mental health professionals, Krista was the only one who made such an irresponsible decision, and it was the least thorough and quickest assessment yet. I am so thankful for Spectrum Services, who offered me legal counsel when she threatened to take my child forcefully, despite having been immediately reevaluated leaving her office. It seems Krista has a problem being wrong, she kept saying "i know what I'm doing, this is my job". Well, it is also the job of the other mental health professionals who cleared my daughter and actually took the time to know her and assess her entire situation. It is honestly alarming that this woman works in medicine and has the power to make life-altering decisions on someone's behalf with little to no information. Stay far away.

I was very hesitant to continue my search for a psychiatrist since my last place basically said out…read moreof nowhere that he was losing his DEA license and could no longer give me the medications that work for me. I called spa hoping to see a certain doctor but they explained that she wasn't taking new patients but I could see a psychiatric np .

I felt incredibly comfortable talking to her like she was actually listening and treating me as if I'm a human being and not just another patient.

I have been coming here since roughly 2011 and I see Dr. Alan Atkinson. I have PTSD and anxiety…read moreand have suffered from depression in the past. He is a very understanding no nonsense kind of doctor. I am a very strong personality so I need someone who can call me out and bring me back down to earth. He has a keen knack for reading people and working off of that. It has been an eye opening experience and he helps me see things in a way I wouldn't have seen it before. Unfortunately he is in partial retirement, but I have noticed his practice has a steady flow of clients. My daughter and husband see Dr. Sandra Reinhold and they have had a lot of success with her as well. She is compassionate, observant and gives her patients a direction to help attain their goals in therapy and be more successful and overcome their issues. I have gone in a few family sessions with her and have been thoroughly impressed with her approach. This group has really helped me and my family work towards healing after a long and hard road. I am blessed to have them in my life to assist and guide me when I feel helpless or can't find my own way. They also do trauma therapy and work with all sorts of cases and issues. Not sure if they are still taking patients, but either way they will be able to direct you in the right direction. They are knowledgeable, experienced and connected.

There should also be signs saying you can't use the cell phone as a phone in the waiting room. Headsets are needed. The welcome reception desk is nice. Well organized. Pleasant. Smooth. The appts seemed to be running on time. The rooms were clean and didn't feel cramped. The exit process was easy and smooth too. All in all this was a good place for a dr visit. They lost a star because the waiting room isn't managed as well as it should be. A few signs and a little bit of enforcement from the front desk staff will do wonders. I'd point out the tv isn't needed, or at least the volume doesn't need to be on, closed captions would be fine.
