Dr. Menninger has been my psychiatrist since August of last year, when my previous doctor closed…read moreher practice. I've been very pleased with the care I've gotten from Dr. Menninger, especially in managing my medication. He was extremely helpful and concerned when I developed tardive dyskinesia (TD) from Abilify, which had been prescribed by my former doctor. It turned out I had been taking it at a high dose for quite a long time, and Dr. Menninger thought I should discontinue it. When I did, the TD symptoms showed up (involuntary mouth and facial movements that were obvious and annoying). He's been very good about working with me and my neurologist in coordinating care as I've been treated for the TD symptoms. Dr. Menninger is cautious and conservative when it comes to medication, which I very much appreciate after my experience with Abilify. I see him regularly, although only every few months, to check in on how things are going with my medications. These are short appointments and somehow there's no co-payment for them with my medical plan, so I certainly like that! During appointments Dr. Menninger takes his notes on his computer as he goes along. It seemed odd, at first, as I wasn't used to that, but now I don't notice it, and being "connected" Dr. Menninger can rapidly find and print out studies and articles on various issues for you while you're sitting in his office, which is very handy. All in all, definitely recommended!

Dr. MacKenzie is personable, professional, and knowledgeable. There is zero judgement, and he truly listens to your concerns and questions and takes time to address them thoughtfully. Meeting with him via video call multiple times a day gave me peace of mind and confidence in knowing that my care was thorough. I hesitate to say that the process was "EASY" just because of the nature of it, but I was pleasantly surprised by how comfortable I was kept and how excellently his evidence-based, well-refined process worked for me. I HIGHLY recommend Dr. MacKenzie and TelePsychiatry Associates for anyone searching for help getting off the addiction train! Give yourself the gift of YOURSELF back!

When I retired several years ago, I moved from San Francisco to Brazil. I spent three fantastic…read moreyears there until the rate of exchange did me in (the bottom fell out of the dollar) and I couldn't afford to stay there any longer. I had to give up my apartment, my new life, and my new life partner and move back to Kansas City (where I grew up and where my family still lives). I fell into an extremely deep depression about the collapse of all my plans and the loss of my partner, and knew I needed help. I was referred to Bob Feuer (pronounced Fewer) by my then-psychiatrist. I was looking for a therapist who is gay or gay-friendly and found that in Bob. He has been extremely good and caring when I was at probably the lowest point in my life, and over the past couple of years has helped see me through a really deep slough of despair. I really appreciate the help he has been to me, and the support I've received from him as my depression finally lifted (I'm glad to say it's gone now). If you're looking for a kind, caring therapist, I can heartily recommend Bob. He does a lot of relationship therapy, helps with coming-out issues, and does all kinds of other general therapy. He has extensive inpatient clinical experience. I can unreservedly recommend him. There is more information about Bob (and his partner in life and practice, Larry Tyndall) on their website.

They have gone so far as to hang up in my face twice after scheduling an appointment and then canceling because of a sensitive or perhaps biased nurse practioner, who claimed that I was rude to her simply by expressing my discomfort during a visit. I guess she expects everything to be roses when a person is sick. Kelsey, put on your 'big girl ' hat and understand when a person is sick, they might not be as pleasant as you would like and know it's not personal. I will not be labeled 'the angry black woman' or will I allow you to get away with treating me so poorly for expressing my concerns to you during an appointment, one that I quite frankly don't remember because it was insignificant. In the meantime, please seek training - in diversity and inclusion, unconscious bias and definitely, customer service. Despite all of this mess today, I have received the best care from the best provider in Dr. Sherard. So will I be prohibited from seeing my doctor because their behavior continues to go unchecked? Before today, I didn't know there was a problem. I'm still reeling over the fact that they hung up in my face, the power they have! At the end of the day, I will continue to take this as far up as I need it to go until I receive a proper apology.

If I could give zero stars I would, but unfortunately 1 star is the bottom limit that it will allow…read moreme to post. Dr. Uddin was my psychiatric provider, briefly, during his residency. He wrote a quote in my chart that was something I NEVER said, and then made a faulty diagnosis based on those words that I never said - for a condition that psychiatrists don't even treat, therapists do. When I saw this, I was concerned and followed up with my therapist about this diagnosis, which enraged Dr. Uddin and he stormed out of the office during our 3rd meeting and I had to have several talks with his attending physician who picked up the pieces from his awful treatment of me and refusal to consider that he had made a mistake in - again, I repeat for emphasis - putting something in my chart that I never said, after meeting me once for 15 minutes, and his notes were timestamped 2 hours after I had seen him so he clearly entered it from memory and made it up as he typed it, and then used that made up quote to justify a diagnosis for a condition that is treated in therapy, a condition my therapist (who i met with for 50 minutes every week for 2 years, and who has been a practicing psychologist for nearly 20 years vs Dr. Uddin being in his residency at the time, that is LITERALLY IN TRAINING and asserting that his expertise was greater than hers on a condition that is actually more within her scope of practice) says that not only do I not have, but that is a gross misdiagnosis. When confronted he threw a tantrum and stormed out of the office, but only after waffling through contradictory excuses such as "it was a typo" yet refusing to amend the chart for his admitted typo. Dealing with Dr. Uddin's ego disrupted the care I was seeking as my appointments became about managing his ego rather than seeing me as a patient. How can a psychiatrist treat a patient if he will not listen to and hear them, and if he puts his assumptions about a person on a pedestal? Not only did he do that, but when he took over my care (due to being seen by KU Med my care team changed every year as residents rotated through clinicals) he arbitrarily changed me off of a drug I had been on for 2 years because he just preferred the other drug, and the drug he switched me to was a different class than the drug it was replacing - and that drug class caused horrible side effects for me that landed me in the hospital for a full week. Avoid this practitioner at all costs. It has taken 2 years to get back on track with my care after the work that needed done correcting his negligence.

Shes the right balance of addressing concerns without over-intervening/over-medicating. Another adult family member had a very good experience with another provider for his intake as well and will be returning to her. In general, the clinic has been a very good experience. They have a lovely lobby. Privacy is great. We have had no issues with billing. They do have strict no-show policies and they do want more upfront payment for intake. but I was ok with that. Our care coordinator explained it all. This does help ensure they aren't booking a ton of intakes that no-show them. Billing has been totally within normal range for a private mental health clinic. It is normal and expected to have to keep a credit card on file. Even our pediatrician clinic does this now days. In healthcare, billing is erratic because of INSURANCE not because of the clinic. So it all depends on your deductible and how quickly your insurance company will pay their portion. every insurance operates at a different speed and everyone's copays/deductibles are different. So please beware the angry people's reviews. Insurance is usually to blame, not the clinic for unclear costs. Find out what your insurance covers-- if its NOTHING until deductible is met, then expect to pay full cost until you hit deductible. If you have to pay 20% of visit, then you can get an estimate for that cost. (and the answer, my friends, is universal healthcare-- cut out all the private insurance and things would be so much simpler for everyone! but thats a whole different essay.)
