“Highly recommend Dr. Paul and Kema health services. Despite continuing medication through a primary care provider I hadn't been to a psychiatrist in almost 20 years. I was incredibly anxious about finding the right person to talk to and someone that could help me with my lifelong struggles. Kema was the 1st place I tried and in just a few visits with Dr. Paul I am feeling the best I have in years. He and his staff are very friendly, easy to communicate with and make me feel very comfortable”
