If on the other hand, you're looking for someone to treat you holistically with both therapy and medications including in-depth analysis of hormones in addition to the far more extensive thyroid panels than my original psychiatrist ran, then Michelle is the one for you. Also, while she is always aware of your low moods, if you're looking for someone to coddle you and just say 'Oh my poor baby!' and pat your hand, when instead you need directness, she also is not that. She is sensitive, and does modulate her demeanor absolutely appropriately depending on where you are in your recovery if you're in the throes of severe highs or lows. I've been seeing her for over 10 years and she is why I am as whole and functioning as I am. She is the one that characterized my progesterone levels as being too low, contributing to my anxiety that drove me into MDD episodes. She also ran thyroid panels that showed my active T3 was too low, instead of just looking at T4 like the rest of the MDs. She also worked with me to teach me to set therapy boundaries and responsibility so that I wouldn't dive into heavy therapy and exhaust myself emotionally. Boundaries, who would have thought?? So yeah, by all means, skip her if you just want a shoddy, half assed, 'Oh my poor dear' shoulder to cry on. If you want to actually live a functional life then see her as much and often as possible.

I started seeing Dr. Indianer when I needed help navigating my relationship problems, first and…read moreforemost with my husband, who had recently begun an affair. Dr. Indianer asked me for some background on the relationship, and she asked me to think about what I wanted from her in our sessions. Not having insurance for mental-health coverage, I was grateful that Dr. Indianer used a sliding scale. I ended up going through a divorce, and receiving quality care at a more affordable price helped me immensely. I found Dr. Indianer to be a "straight shooter," and I would even say she showed me some tough love when I needed to try to focus more on my present and future rather than dwelling in the past or remaining caught up in my backstory. That being said, she is an extremely caring individual, spiritual, and personable. I recommend Dr. Indianer as a psychiatrist and osteopath for those of us, especially middle aged and older, who seek a wise helper who is practical and wants others to attain their optimum physical and mental health.

I'm really surprised no one has reviewed him yet. Maybe it's because he is new to Los Gatos? Well,…read morehere it goes - I suffered for years with suicidal depression. Someone recommended Dr. Mahan when he was working in San Jose, and with his help, and a change of my meds, everything changed. Nothing is easy, but he helped by looking at how I think, gave me mental exercises (sounds dumb, I don't know how else to describe them, but they work) to change how I think about my life, and he has become a, sort of, life coach for me. I wouldn't have gotten by B.A. or changed my job without his help. He also lets my bitch as much as I want, so... :) Now, I know this shouldn't be a factor, but his new office is really cute, and, wait for it, is above Sushi on the Run. Arguably the best sushi in the Bay Area (has won "Best of" for like the Guardian or some newspaper...forgot). He also has a nice view of downtown Los Gatos / Santa Cruz Mountains, and it has more of a homey feel then the hospital / formal feel of other offices. Los Gatos is nice. I need to review places there. Great coffee houses, little shops, and bars. Okay, this is what I do when I have a chance. Two perfect days- 1. Make a morning appointment with Dr. Mahan. grab lunch, book or cheesy magazine, and drive a little bit further to Santa Cruz. Mountains, Beach, Sun, Ocean, Roller Coasters (when was the last time you Rollercoastered it. It's a Word!). Worth it. Good for the soul, and a mini-break, or 2. Make a morning appointment with Mahan, and the Dry Bar in S.J. (you can make an appointment with Dry Bar easily online), so after you talk about your life, you go get a blowout, then go across the street and grab sweet potato fries (double the order, and make sure you get the sauce, too) from Veggi Grill, maybe go next door and grab a burger. Go home, and have a Homeland/ Game of Thrones/ Grimm marathon. Perfect days. Promise. ps. Dr. Mahan, I stole your picture off your website, and stuck it on your Yelp page. I hate the icon they put if you don't have a picture. Bugs me. You said to be pro-active! Sashimi!

Having struggled with addiction in my early…read more20's, it was determined that the thing I was abusing actually has medicinal benefits to treat my ADD/ADHD. I'm the face of adversity and defending science over court opinion, Dr. Klimdt prescribed me Desoxyn(Methamphetamine). 10 years later I had enjoyed, through a company that I built, $4,200,000 in sales with over 50 employees/tradesman working every day. The need for the medicine only came about on a few occasions but combined with the 12 steps, and a strong Faith, Dr. Klimdt and I are living proof of a true success story against the most extreme odds possible. There is quite a bit of political corruption with the courts since my step father was a billionaire before he passed, and now am dealing with having to investigate alongside FBI such people as Mayor Sheng Thao of Oakland, who was recently raided for political corruption after my December 2022 complaint uncovered evidence the FBI needed to execute the warrant in their ongoing investigations. (See my email in photos of this yelp post). In conclusion, Dr. Klimdt was originally referred to me by a lifelong friend and former college professor, George Hinn, and both deserve noble prizes imo. They just don't care about outside opinion, only about their patience, and factual scientific data. Mad love and respect for both these gentlemen, Dr. Klimdt is worth every penny he charges and then some.

I have had the pleasure of knowing Dr. Quach for a few years now. I have worked with numerous…read morepsychiatrists over the years but Dr. Quach is by far one of the best. Walking into a new doctor's office can be at best uncomfortable and at worst scary, but the kindness Dr. Quach shows really puts you at ease as soon as you walk into the office. The compassion and care he provides to each and every individual is something that I have not seen before. He takes his time to engage with you and really puts in the effort to understand what you need, and more importantly what you want. He truely listens to each individual and tries to incorporate their wishes into his treatment plan. He makes you feel like what you want in your treatment matters, and that your input is valued. Dr. Quach also takes his time to explain each medication that he is proscribing, including the possible side effects, risks, and benefits so that you feel informed and empowered in your treatment. I would recommend Dr. Quach to anyone, and encourage anyone who has the opportunity to work with Dr. Quach as your Psychiatrist to take it!!

I truly can't express how grateful I am for her. She supported me through some of the darkest periods of my life with compassion, insight, and genuine care. She has an incredible ability to listen, understand, and help me make sense of what I'm going through in a way that feels safe, empowering and grounded. She was able to support me through my aging parents, mental health, perimenopause, menopause, and career changes with remarkable skill and sensitivity. She also guided me through a period of transition, helping me pause, reflect, and truly understand the major changes happening in my life. Her understanding and support through perimenopause and menopause is something more women should have the opportunity to experience. I can't recommend her highly enough for her knowledge, professionalism, and deep empathy. I will always be grateful for the support she's given me.
