Irina S. Addes's Online Review Report Card

I’ve been w/ Dr. Addes for awhile now but the only reason why I stayed because I didn’t know any better. I mean I knew in my heart she was not there for me. It was just routine questions and ok your done, here’s your meds. She’s not someone who you can talk to. Because she never really was there to comfort me and listen and understand my situations. Ok this med don’t work let’s try another. My anxiety/panic disorder have been with me since right after I graduated h/s and the only time I found comfort was seeing a therapist. You would think since she’s a doctor, that she will be better than those license therapist. But anyways… I dont recommend her. When I asked her to excuse me for a jury duty b/c it makes me nervous & panicky. She said it’s not right! Um excuse me… if she only knew the stuff I go through or went through. (She excused me before) I didn’t want to feel paralyzed again. So now it’s time to move on. Sorry, not sorry!

DR. Addes’s is very thorough in explaining clinical diagnoses and helpful in working together to achieve applicable therapeutic goals. DR. Addes is caring. and accepting of individual diversities. I get as much time as I need to address my therapeutic concerns for each clinical session I participate in . ( time varies depending on what I have been going through.) I trust DR. Addes in her ability to apply her clinical knowledge to my specific needs. I especially appreciate her personal communication style of working collaboratively with me to problem solve the clinical needs I have ongoing. DR.Addes is very open to collaborating with my other medical and mental health providers .

I came to seek help for my anxiety and depression but she failed to help me. She is not a good listener and made me feel uncomfortable. She is not compassionate or caring at all. She also charges a fortune for only a 30 min session-almost $200 per session for me. It was also very difficult to schedule appointments with her. Her office staff are also extremely rude. I dropped her after 2 sessions and just went to my pcp who truly helped me with my mental illnesses by prescribing me effective meds and advised me on how to control my anxiety and depression with talk therapy.

Dropped me after 7 years without enough medication.

HORRIBLE 4 almost the last 7 yrs. She does NOT listen to the client & tries to prescribe the STRONGEST meds.

Dr. Addes was the second psychiatrist assigned to care for my husband who has Alzheimer's. She is far better than the first. Dr. Addes takes plenty of time to assess my husband's condition and has succeeded in finding the proper drugs to help him through stressful situations. Basically, Dr. Addes has been a life saver to my husband and our family.

Ran out of medication had to beg for a refill. It took 5 days, switched doctors.

Great

AMAZING. best help Ive received

My child has a serious mental disorder. This doctor did nothing but prescribe meds. She had no insight into age appropriate programs or treatments. She asked us if we wanted to try a different medication after she noticed that she was over medicating our child. She simply wrote us a prescription for a different med without any suggestion for weaning her from the other medication. We are now seeing a new, competent physician and it's a huge change. Avoid this practitioner and her group.
