I liked Michael from the get-go and so did my therapist. I liked him because when he knew I was in class, he texted me to schedule my first appointment...who remembers and actually does that? Then, after my first appointment, my therapist said he called her and went over absolutely everything with her. She told me that's rare, that she was very pleased with how thorough he was, and that she'd be referring clients of hers to him in the future, if it were ok with him. Getting that first appointment with Michael was extremely easy and I also like that he lets me choose whether I'd like to see him every four, six, or eight weeks.

Michael definitely remembers me and chatting w/ him is a fun, comfortable, and beneficial experience because he's both direct and supportive while being very personable. I see him to get prescribed ADD medication and even though I have a therapist, I like seeing him too because it feels like therapy specific for ADD, which is really helpful. Any MD can just prescribe you your meds, but he's given me so much more than that. He's prescribed me both four and eight hour pills, which no one else has ever done for me before. So, I now have the options to be medicated for only four hours, four eight hours, or even for twelve hours, and it's great to be able to have exactly what I need on any given day. He's also provided me with great new coping strategies that I haven't gotten elsewhere, and that's what really makes seeing him so beneficial for me.

No cons...big building, good parking, and there's even an on-site pharmacy.

Highly recommended.
