Jasmine doesn't rush appointments and takes the time to explain things clearly. You can tell she wants to find the best approach for your needs. If you're looking for a provider who is compassionate, approachable, and supportive, Jasmine is absolutely wonderful. I am so grateful I found her.

Dr. Jacobson is a lifesaver. I have been in his care for over 20 years now. I first saw him in…read moreNorthridge because he was the psychiatrist my insurance company was contracted with. Immediately I bonded with him. His bedside manner is delightful and his work ethic is admirable. He after the first visit discovered that I wasn't just clinically depressed,I was manic. I was laid off my job in 2009 after the company was sold and went into a deep depression. I had been working with Tri-anim for 24 years. Dr. Jacobson worked with me closely. He was pleased when I found another job in just 3 weeks. He told me to update my resume and told me about Monster and Indeed.com. When my contract job ended I couldn't find anything because I didn't have a degree. He told me about online universities where the coursework is easier than going to college for 4 years. I was extremely anxious about how I was going to pay my rent. I had amassed over $375K in my 401K, and Dr. Jacobson told me to take out some money for the bills. When I called they said that since I was no longer an employee I had to leave it alone or open up a Ira at a bank and then transfer everything to the new account, so that's what Dr. Jacobson said to do. One thing I forgot to mention is that he moved his office to Agoura Hills, and he was not accepting Medi-cal. He said don't worry" I'll charge you the insurance rate of $75 per office visit which is unheard of. Psychiatrists of his caliber charge upwards of $300 to their cash patients. When I complained about the drive to Agoura Hills from Northridge, he said " Jordan don't stress. We can do television via Whatsapp and I'll see you at no charge. WTF? That was unbelievable. This is the kind of human being he is. I continue in his care today, and haven't paid him a dime since 2009. What a mench. Jewish for an angel. Recently my insurance company stopped paying for my medicine so he put me on Abilify. I only pay $25 per month, but it doesn't work as good as Vraylar for me, but the share of cost for Vraylar with Humana is $400/mo. I am only in Social Security and my husband is disabled so our monthly income is only $3,000. Our rent is $1895. My insurance broker Steven Ruhkmann told me to call the manufacturer and apply for financial aid. Dr. Jacobson texted me on Sunday evening at 7:00 pm to tell me he is finishing his part of the application and he needed to send me a document to sign. On a Sunday night he's still working. Old- fashioned work ethic. Now, I need a note from him to make my new kitten an emotional support animal for me because I wasn't allowed to bring him aboard the bus for a Grand Canyon West and Hoover Dam tour in Las Vegas. So, my husband stayed in the hotel and I and my best friend took the tour. When I asked to get a refund for my husband's ticket they refused. They kicked him out for a 3 week old kitten and won't give me my $109 back. I called Viator who is the 3rd party and they got back to me with the same answer: No refunds. Dr Jacobson suggested that I contact an attorney and sue for discrimination. Always looking out for me. I told him that I won $150 in Vegas and to give me his Zelle number so I could at least send him $50 bucks. He responded to me this morning at 4:00 am and told me "I got plenty of money and you don't. Enjoy your winnings. So, I asked him where I can share my experience with his wonderful care, and he said Yelp. I've given too much information but you won't find a more dedicated, hard working professional psychiatrist than Walter E Jacobson, MD

Not the care I expected…read more I was initially hopeful starting out with Dr. Jacobson. I looked into providers in my area and found his "shrink bites" on YouTube insightful, especially on forgiveness. So, I became a new patient. Unfortunately, I was quick to realize that he rushes his appointments, leaving no time or opportunity for questions for further discussion. I did not feel invited to share anything or ask questions, as he often responds quickly with little patience--at least that's how I interpreted it. I followed his instructions when I started my medication and provided a summary on my experience, as directed for ADHD. I was responded with criticism for sharing too much. And this over-sharing happens to be an effect of the medication, which he failed to recognize. In my perception, his demeanor is overly professional and he does not take careful effort to monitor his patients' progress. I understand that he may have a large number of patients, but he should have at least take demonstrate patience with each one of us and have interest in our subjective worlds as patients. Speeding through obligatory questions and concluding an appointment in one minute was not what I was expecting. I believe patients have accountability on our ends to reach out when necessary, but we struggle with mental health and sometimes require an extra hand. We shouldn't be expected to be perfect, formal people. A passive aggressive text informing that I need an appointment is not the best move, considering I was going through an SSRI withdrawal for a few weeks. My depression got worse, as I felt uncared for and I blamed myself for expecting too much. It took me some time to get over my anxiety to reach out. Even though his part of my treatment is psychiatric medications, I could at least expect some empathy or emotion in his messages. A welcoming attitude is necessary on the provider's end for patients to open up. I struggle with depression and social anxiety, and it didn't seem as though he was considerate of that. I decided to accepted my mistake and moved on. I entered a PHP program after my SSRI withdrawal had sent me into a long depressive episode (which was my fault). There was a psychiatrist at my program who made minor changes to my medication plan. She knows I see an outside provider and I had allowed disclosure of treatment information to Dr. Jacobson. I did not consider her my primary psychiatric provider, so I continued seeing Dr. Jacobson. It seems there is this expectation from him that we know everything about insurance and the healthcare system and he gets frustrated over misunderstandings. So I was scolded at and I felt genuine fear as it reminded me of my childhood trauma. I was then instructed to come back when I am discharged from the program. Essentially, I just felt like another patient, and not another person. He just isn't what I was looking for. Maybe I should've been transparent, but I fear talking to him honestly. I've never felt this way with someone who is supposed to make me feel the opposite. He is not the best fit *for me* but he does his job sufficiently. If you just want a prescription quickly and conveniently, Dr. Jacobson may be your provider.

I am so grateful to have found this office. Dr Hill and Carla have been so helpful…read more Dr Hill is the most compassionate and caring doctor and very knowledgeable. I have seen several psychiatrist in the past but none have come close to Dr Hill. Carla has been my TMS technician. She has been very patient with me, very comforting and caring.

I highly recommend Dr Hill and the team here.

I have spoken to the billing department and office numerous times, "dr.hill and the psychiatrist working under him" even told the billing department they offered me it at no cost, yet they continue to harass me!! People are constantly quitting and they're getting new employees so no one knows what's going on, it's a complete mess. All they care about is pushing you to do expensive treatments to charge your insurance company and take advantage of their clients. Literally they will promise you the world just to get you locked in and completely disregard their promises and stick you with a bill for a service you had no intention of doing prior to being talked into it. Horrible upper management pushed by the greedy owners. I will say though Sara and Dr. hill are very nice and professional, they have tried helping resolve this issue. It's the owner who is responsible for this ongoing problem. Multiple people have been scammed from their game.

For someone with such experience and expertise, she's extremely down-to-earth and approachable. I came to Dr. Vause at a time of change in my life (at work, with family, and in my relationships), and my stress was surging. My depression and anxiety levels were becoming hard to manage, and I was turning to drugs and alcohol to cope. Dr. Vause helped me get through it. In addition to counseling, she guided me through some challenging but needed adjustments to my medication regimen. Every med suggestion was explained clearly, Dr. Vause answered all of my questions, and I knew what to expect in terms of effects and side-effects. I never felt as if pills were just being pushed my way; she really wanted me to participate in my own treatment and understand her reasoning. In addition to the excellent medication recommendations and adjustments, she is a wonderful therapist. Since seeing her, I have felt much better, and have experienced real improvements in my life. Her combination of innate sensitivity, compassion, and deep medical expertise is quite rare. I feel completely comfortable and secure in this relationship, and am fortunate to have found this exceptional doctor. I know I am cared for as a whole person, not just a bundle of problems, and there's nothing I hesitate to talk to Dr. Vause about. Having her in my life is itself therapeutic and a source of strength for me. Thank you Dr. Vause!
