What Patients Are Saying

Excellent psychiatrist. Takes his time with patients and knows how to help them. I felt comfortable with him. - Mrs. T

I enjoyed working with Dr. Angarita. He helped me reduce my anxiety. He explained everything to me very clearly. - Mrs. I

Doctor Angarita provided me with excellent care. When I came to see him in 2012 my mind was phrased out and my mental state was disorganized. But he took the time to listen to me and analyze what I was saying. He correctly diagnosed me with PTSD and chose the right medications for me.  I have been on those same medications and doses for the past two years and my life is back on track.  No one knew what was going on with me, but Doctor Angarita really took the time to understand me and give me excellent treatment. - Nelson

Doctor Ben tried to understand me and what I was going through. He really went the extra mile. He was encouraging and never gave up on me. - Sabrina

Doctor Ben did a good job. My experience with other psychiatrist is that they do not listen to you and just give you medicine. Doctor Ben listened to me and explained to me my options. We made decisions about my treatment together. - Mrs. J
