We took our daughter there 3 times, because it was the "only show in town!" for residential care…read more She has a serious mental illness and needed that level care. The first time we took her was during Covid and she tested positive during her stay. However, instead of isolating her by herself in a room, they sent her home. The county person who was called out to consult about the situation, told us they should have kept her. I was a bit surprised, but understood why they would release her. They would want a client who could participate and they needed her room for that client. However, the 2nd time we took her there, it took us 2 weeks and several discussions to convince them to give her the prescribed meds she needed to remain stable! That seemed very odd and unprofessional! I'd even say negligent! The 3rd time we took her there, they asked us to participate in a Family Session with their "therapist." This very young woman obviously had no experience in leading a family session. She sat there mute, not asking any questions of any of the 3 of us. I kept hinting, what she could do to get a conversation going, but she didn't get it. I finally took over and started asking the questions of each of my own family, including myself and our daughter. Being a Family Therapist myself, it was a good thing I knew what I was doing. However, for most, if not all, of their clients, they would not know how to do that. Bottom line, they need to. hire professionals to work in their program, not inexperienced students. They also need to follow protocol on meds!

Our family had a deeply distressing experience with Sierra Meadows in January 2026…read more Before admission, we were told my daughter's insurance had been verified and that she was approved for treatment. Based on that information, she traveled a very long distance to Fresno to receive urgently needed inpatient psychiatric care. Six days into treatment, while she was still an inpatient, we were abruptly informed that her stay was not covered by insurance after all. This disclosure was delivered without adequate preparation, emotional support, or coordinated clinical involvement -- despite the fact that she was being treated for significant anxiety, emotional dysregulation, and distress intolerance. The impact of this sudden news was severe. During this time, administrative staff did not return calls or respond to repeated inquiries. There was no meaningful guidance, transition planning, or support offered to help stabilize the situation. The result was that my daughter left the facility in crisis -- far from home, stranded in Fresno, without housing, and emotionally overwhelmed. As a parent, I had to urgently travel to Fresno myself to ensure her safety and arrange alternative care. The financial and emotional toll was significant. If you are considering sending a loved one here, please be cautious. Insurance verification and discharge communication are critical in psychiatric care settings. In our case, the lack of clear communication, administrative responsiveness, and crisis support caused additional trauma during an already vulnerable time. I would not want another family to experience what we did.

I referred a friend to this organization, but unfortunately, their experience was very concerning…read more The staff demonstrated a lack of cultural diversity and sensitivity, particularly toward my friend's daughter, who is Muslim. Despite having therapists from Hispanic, Caucasian, and Black backgrounds, there appeared to be little understanding of cultural competence or inclusivity. Considering the significant Muslim population in Fresno, it is disappointing that they do not have even one Muslim therapist on staff. While they accept Muslim clients, my friend's experience felt dismissive and culturally insensitive, all while being charged extremely high fees. Although Dr. Baird comes across as pleasant, the overall impression is that the organization prioritizes profit over genuinely serving diverse communities.One of my friends I recommend

I have found the office staff to be just as courteous and always helpful. Some people need to understand that there is a difference between a "talk" therapist who will spend 30 - 50 minutes with you and a doctor or nurse practitioner qualified to prescribe meds. I have been to many therapists and would highly recommend Randy. Sherry M.

I got their e-newsletter for some reason recently and remembered when my child's mother and I…read moredecided to bring our child in for an evaluation. We each filled out intake paperwork in advance. When I showed up and handed mine over to the front desk, the front office worker said that they had mom's and didn't need mine and proceeded to throw mine away. Fortunately, the medical practitioner was wiser and less rude and eventually retrieved it. I also was not allowed to get or give the front office any information, though I was the one to initiate services. I was told only mom could do things like make and change appointments. Over months and months of interactions, I was treated rudely and dismissively and repeatedly reminded that my opinion didn't matter by both office staff and the clinician.

There is so much detail that goes into such a treatment and sadly unless you have experience from multiple locations you may not realize that you may or may not be getting proper treatment.

I can not recommend her enough. She has a heart of gold and the world needs more people like her. Thank you Linda!!

Seeing the review showing that doctor Dr. Sadlek is letting go of patients because they refuse to…read moreget their COVID vaccine I'm sorry but that made me laugh. I've been a patient of Dr. Sadlek's going on 4 years and she sees myself and my children, my son being 21 and a daughter who is 17 and 13. They absolutely love her as a doctor!!! One day my son came home from an appointment with Dr as usual I asked how things went. He said they talked about him getting the covid vaccine. He says Dr came in the room and asked if I had got it yet I told her no, she then said well you need to put your mask on correctly and keep it on while in office. He stated Dr explained to him why he should consider getting the vaccine and he told her he would think about it. Her response was when you decide and your ready just call to get scheduled and in the meantime you have to wear your mask and correctly in the office or I won't come in the room to see you. He stated he told her okay no problem, they finished the appointment and was on his way. Lol now anyone who knows Dr. Sadlek knows that she is straightforward when it comes to things. In my personal opinion that's one thing that makes her great. She doesn't sugar coat things for us she's straightforward when it comes down to it. She will listen to you, help you when needed, but she will not be your mama and treat you like a baby. So if your looking for a Dr to coddle you and treat you like a fragile child then this is probably not the Dr for you. She is amazing, awesome and my kids being young adults and teenager love her, I love her she's the best Dr we have ever had. Appointments available almost every time we call, she and her staff our outstanding. Oh an I've been to a few Dr's in different states and even a different country. Dr. Sadlek out does them!!!!!!! Keep up the outstanding work Dr.

Worst doctor I've ever met! WAY past actually caring about delivering wholesome Medical counseling…read moreor care. I've only had the displeasure of meeting her twice. The first time I met her, she was belittling me within 3 minutes for being organized, for listing out significant medical things or peripheral information that I thought would be helpful for my 'new patient appointment.' She literally ridiculed me! Not at all interested in the slightest explanation about meds or health concerns YOU may have. She gets pissy over the slightest inquiry labeling YOU as 'difficult.' She walks into the room and says hello WITHOUT even looking at your face or eyes... could not make a worst first impression. How does any medical professional start an assessment like that? Tired and needs to retire. She simply does not care and is quite happy to say as much. I've never been treated more rudely. WILL be filing a grievance just like you can with your insurance company! -G

My husband goes here, which he believes his psychiatrist is wonderful (she is; the stories he tells…read moreare awesome), but he does complain that the front desk is very rude. I have actually had to call on his behalf before due to their lack of response. It is kind of insulting how they will call me back because I call and leave a message like a Karen, but won't call him back when he won't leave a message due to his call anxiety. ‍ Also, I love being constantly cut off while trying to explain something [sarcasm]. I would recommend this place for the doctors themselves, but never for the front desk.
