“Outstanding. I poured out my heart. With my mom dying. I was her caregiver for 5 years. The day she died I became homeless and my purse and all the important contents was stolen after the funeral. I feel orphaned. I felt well heard. ”

Latest Review
“I have been working in residential care for 15 years and I have never met such a caring, knowledgeable and personable psychiatrist. Dr. Sal sees all the youth at our residential facility, the youth are 12-21 years old and it’s very difficult to build rapport with them, but Dr. Sal was able to feel the youth safe and cared for enough for them to trust him and share their needs. He never rushes appointments and he never pushes meds. The entire team is amazing! I am so grateful for their help!”
