Armanda Keci PMHNP is an excellent provider. She listens to her patient's concerns, work her schedule with her patients (even off hours), very approachable and provides honest feedback. Armanda is knowledgeable regarding her patient's psychiatric and medical needs. She explains the medication use and side effects to her patients and makes sure the patient understands the treatment plan, goals and expectations. She collaborates with other providers, such as the therapist and PCPs to address her patients needs. She follows up with her patients on a regular basis and promptly replies to their messages. I highly recommend Armanda and BZA for providing excellent support and care to their patients. Coming to BZA is like having a friend and shoulder you could count on.

I am writing this review because of the positive experience I had as a student while at BZA. The facility is very welcoming and esthetically pleasing. Another strength of BZA is its team approach. I have enjoyed observing my preceptor, Armanda Keci, interact with her patients/clients. She is thorough, personable and most importantly genuinely professional. She is an excellent role model for the psych and mental health profession. She is prompt is responding to her patients' needs whether online or in-person. As a student, she gave feedback on a daily basis, was available and responded to my needs within minutes to hours and my required clinical documents were submitted in a timely manner which truly helped to alleviate my stress level. I feel extremely honored to have had this opportunity to learn under Armanda's guidance. I highly recommend her to patients experiencing mental health issues any student pursuing a degree or certification in Psych and Mental Health.

I'm a graduate of Northwestern University and was distraught over my outcomes with other psychiatrists. I felt like I didn't suffer through that school to be on disability. Susan is a breath of fresh air. While she isn't in-network with any insurance company, her prices are reasonable (she's worth every penny), and she will work with your insurance on things like getting your prescriptions covered, provide you with documentation if you have out-of-network coverage, and fill out any sort of job-related paperwork that may be needed. I think it's saying something that she keeps her patient population functioning so well that they can continue to see her, even in the rough times. Unlike so many other psychiatrists, to the best of my knowledge Susan doesn't have patients in long-term care facilities, nursing homes, or regularly in an inpatient setting. We're all contributing members of society and she keeps us that way. As psych patients, I believe that's the most we can ask for: to be indistinguishable from people without mental illness. Susan ensures just that. If there's one thing you should spend a little extra on, it's your health. Take my word for it. Make your mental health a priority with Susan Bank. You'll be happy you did!

And, I have had more than a few over my lifetime. This doctor will not allow insurance companies to tell him how to treat his patients, because his office does not accept insurance. He and his staff are focused on their patients, rather than dealing with their insurers That's why I pay his bills "out of pocket." If my coverage allows me to submit his "out of network" bills for payment I do. Every dime I've spent to be treated by Dr. Gamze has been returned tenfold by the help and relief I receive in his care. This is a great psychiatrist with an excellent staff!

My adult son was a patient for years there with Aspergers, anxiety disorder, and OCD. His doctor…read moreleft the practice several years ago and he was assigned to a PA. What happened since then was more and more medications were added to his care. Five medications and the PA wanted a 6th, which my son had already tried and it didn't help! He gained lots of weight from these meds. My son is now with a new practice and a psychiatrist who just weaned him off one med and is adjusting another. He is looking to discontinue another medication eventually and begin therapy. This is how to practice psychiatric medicine! One other thing - many times the office staff was rude and completely focused on payment - not my son's care. When billed, my son paid them immediately but often they wanted money before an appointment or even a discussion. I think they felt they had the upper hand with dealing with patients similar to my son - who have emotional and/or mental issues and probably don't have advocates like me sticking up for them. Sad.

A formal complaint has been filed with the state regulatory board. I was a patient of Dr. Mills for over 6 years. During my last appointment, he felt it was appropriate to share his personal feelings on DEI and expressed that he is pleased with the way that things are shifting away from DEI to being "merit-based" because DEI was discriminatory to white men and people who are not LGBT+. As a woman who identifies as part of the LGBT+ community, I became very uncomfortable, told him that this was an inappropriate subject, and stated that I would be seeking a new provider to continue my treatment. He reacted appalled, and couldn't understand why I would be offended. I moved on and tried to go back to the purpose of the call: to assess my treatment and medication (am I eating, am I sleeping, etc). At the end of the appointment, I declined to schedule a follow up and immediately found a new provider. Three weeks later, I received an email from Dr. Mills with the subject line "termination". See below for full text. He attempted to terminate a relationship that was already terminated, acting as if I owed him an apology for standing my ground and expressing my discomfort while calling me "reactive and illogical". This rhetoric from a certified psychiatrist is not only inappropriate, it is abusive and damaging to patients who are seeking help. He is unable to manage his own emotions when a patient expresses discomfort on a subject and should not be trusted with providing support to anyone who needs mental health support/treatment. Avoid at all costs. Email text is as follows: Good morning Amy After thinking about our last conversation on 9/24, I have decided it is in my best interest to terminate our working relationship. I did absolutely NOTHING wrong by explaining that some folks are pleased with the shift away from DEI to a merit-based system. That is not even an opinion...it is REALITY. Your stated intention to fire me for saying something that is entirely FACTUAL was out of line and disrespectful to me and our working relationship over the past 6 years and I am not able to work with someone who would be this reactive and illogical in their behavior towards me. You've had 3 weeks to consider your words and apparently you feel no apology or explanation is owed to me and I find that unacceptable. Your last Rx will be released on 11/9 and, after that, I wish you well in your search for a new provider. Regards, Dr.Mills
