After 3 attempts and 2 payments of $375 being cancelled, I tried reaching out over the phone once more. There is no phone number for the service allows you to speak, person-to-person, with a human being. That being said, the extra star is there because they might be alright at therapy. They just come off as greedy and cold before you get in the door. P.S. The aforementioned "door" is metaphorical as they are still Tele-health only. At this juncture in the pandemic, it just seems impersonal.

As a person who suffers from panic attacks; it is very important that I feel comfortable with the decisions the psychiatrist is making for me. She doesn't force any medications on me and even helped me take a DNA test to see what medications work best for me. The only negative thing about going there is the wait. At times you can be waiting well over you appointment time and that can become a little frustrating. All in all it is still worth the wait. I highly recommend her to anyone who is looking for a great psychiatrist.

This facility is extremely clean, modern and the staff is very nice and super professional. This is the second year my husband and I have gotten our annual check ups here. It took us both exactly 60 minutes (with our blood withdrawn in-house) from the moment we arrived to the moment we walked out to the car. My favorite part is that if everything is OK they call you and tell you over the phone instead of wasting your time and making you make another appointment to simply get your blood work results. This facility is really nice too. Sounds too good to be true? OK, the only downfall may be you will have to park in metered parking in the near by garage. Other than that it should be fairly simple which is honestly how it should be. This is probably one of the best health clinics right now. Dr. Contiguglia is great and so were all the nurses and staff. Stay Healthy!

I was being evaluated to qualify for a certain procedure that would have made their medical practice money. But, instead she was honest and said I do not qualify. She could have lied and taken my cash. She didn't. 2.) She knows what she is talking about as I took notes and googled it all. She was spot on. I love a smart woman especially when they are my doctor. 3.) I am part Ukrainian. She is 100% Ukrainian.... Hell, I like that. 4.) I may sound superficial...but wow she is DAMN attractive.

If you're looking for a dangerous, negligent psychiatric practice, look no further than Elevate…read morePsychiatry. My experience here has been filled with administrative incompetence, medical negligence, and a blatant disregard for patient care. This practice appears to prioritize profits over patient well-being, leaving itself wide open to legal liability. The issues began immediately with billing errors. I was repeatedly overcharged for visits due to misinformation about my co-pay, which required me to fight for refunds. While frustrating, this was just the beginning compared to the negligence in my psychiatric care. Dr. Sused Hidalgo prescribed a medication for my diagnosis, but when my insurance didn't cover it, the pharmacy suggested an alternative. She issued a new prescription within minutes--without reviewing my chart or evaluating if it was appropriate for my condition. When I raised concerns, I found out Elevate had never even obtained my medical records from my previous psychiatrist. Despite completing a HIPAA form and requesting the transfer myself, they failed to follow through. Dr. Hidalgo prescribed medication without access to my medical history, and when I pointed this out, she dismissed my concerns, stating we could "discuss it during the next visit." There was no accountability or acknowledgment of the potential harm caused by this negligence. In search of better care, I was assigned to Dr. Dolores ("Doly"). Her approach was even worse. Despite providing her with genetic testing results showing which medications would likely work for me, she dismissed them as mere "suggestions." When I reported severe side effects from her prescribed medications--worsening anxiety, sedation, and erratic behavior--she refused to adjust the treatment plan. Dr. Doly also made bizarre and offensive comments, such as: "Depressed people don't wear makeup. I recommend some women wear makeup to feel better." "I don't believe in bipolar II. Depression is just a side effect of bipolar, and I think you're bipolar I." Her assessments were conducted entirely via Telehealth, which is not permitted for diagnosing and treating complex conditions like bipolar disorder. This is unethical and a violation of medical guidelines. On July 12, I sent a detailed email to the owner, Mr. Bhatia, outlining these issues. Despite following up with voicemails, I never received a response. My last appointment was on October 31, and as of December 10, no one from the practice has reached out. This lack of follow-up makes it clear they only care about money, not their patients' health. Elevate Psychiatry's negligence includes: * Medical malpractice: Prescribing medications without proper evaluation or access to my medical records. * HIPAA violations: Failing to request or obtain my previous medical documentation. * Insurance fraud: Overcharging me despite confirmed coverage. * Negligent Telehealth practices: Diagnosing and treating complex conditions remotely without required in-person evaluations. This practice is not just incompetent, but dangerous. If you value your health, avoid Elevate Psychiatry. I have documented proof of every interaction to support my claims. I feel so strongly about advising others to avoid this practice that I have written multiple reviews across platforms, filed a complaint with the Better Business Bureau (BBB), and made two separate reports to the Florida Department of Health (DOH) and HIPAA. I want to be very clear that this is not slander, libel, harassment, or defamation. This is my honest experience, and my only intention in sharing it is to warn others and hope that Elevate Psychiatry will make serious changes to avoid causing harm to more patients.

I had a very disappointing and frustrating experience with Elevated Psychiatry. Over the past two…read moreweeks, I had two therapy appointments scheduled, and in both cases, no one showed up. Last week, I waited in the virtual room for over an hour, but no one joined the session or reached out to explain why the appointment wasn't happening. Then, yesterday, I waited on the phone for half an hour for another pre-scheduled therapy session, and again, nobody joined. In August, I had an appointment with Carla and was informed that the cost would be $129, which I agreed to pay upfront. I joined the virtual meeting on time, but after waiting 15 minutes, the secretary finally joined just to collect the payment. Only after I paid did the doctor appear, and she informed me we had only 15 minutes left. That was barely enough time to even start discussing whether I needed any medication, and the session was rushed. Afterward, I received a bill for $428, which was clearly incorrect. I had to waste time calling them to get the error corrected, and they finally charged me $129. But even that felt unfair because I didn't receive the 30-minute evaluation I was eligible for. The appointment didn't result in any meaningful progress other than scheduling another session with a different therapist. To make matters worse, there's been no explanation or apology for the missed appointments, and it's almost impossible to get in touch with anyone to resolve these issues. It's incredibly discouraging to seek help for mental health only to be treated this poorly. Their unprofessionalism has only added more stress to my situation, and I wouldn't recommend their services to anyone.
