Very good first visit with Sarah. She made me feel very comfortable and was very professional. She listened to me. Appreciated!
Very professional and supportive!
I showed up for my first appointment in a crisis. My provider took the time to address my crisis. At my second appointment, Sarah was able to get my history intake at that time.
Sarah is great! She really knows her stuff. She makes recommendations regarding my meds, adjusts them as needed, ALWAYS discussing my opinion on it first.
I wasn't sure at first but after a few appointments, I'm really starting to like her. She listens to my concerns and tries to accommodate if she can. She really listens and she has very good bedside manner. She also responds very quickly to medication refills and messages left with her staff. I really like her and would suggest her to someone if they needed psychiatry care.
Sarah Heredia was easy to talk to. Empathetic and non judgemental. I felt relieved to share some of my feelings and history.

Sarah Heredia has been great, I get appointments in a timely manner and she actually listens to me and what I feel. She also cares about my health and safety. She gave me a diagnosis I’ve been wondering about for most of my life and it was a relief. I look forward to continue being under her care.
