Today was my first appointment with the practice, and I was absolutely satisfied with my evaluation. I was so impressed by Leslie’s thoroughness, knowledge and professionalism. She knew about the different medications that I have been prescribed, and she was knowledgeable about my diagnoses. She was also very upfront, and she asked the right questions. I felt very comfortable during the evaluation, and I felt like I was in a very safe place. This is very important to me.
I also have to thank Alpha for her all of the excellent assistance that she provided in the initial intake process. She was very thorough with helping me complete the paperwork necessary for me to begin my treatment. She is truly a great asset to the practice, and her kindness and attentiveness to my needs were amazing. I am so appreciative for the outstanding service that Potomac Shores staff has provided me.
As a new patient, I feel very hopeful about my future treatment with Potomac Shores. I made the decision to find a new treatment team because I was not getting the help that I needed. At the old place where I was being treated, I felt like I was just a number. In addition, my old doctor only offered medication management without therapy. Over the years, I have learned that I need both medication management and therapy. I am a firm believer that effective mental health treatment requires both medication management and therapy, in addition to other things.
I was so thrilled to learn from Leslie that Potomac Shores believes that mental wellness requires both medication management and therapy. Therapy is something that I desperately need, and I have been unable to find a practice that provides both medication management and therapy. I even tried therapy online, but it didn’t meet my expectations. However, I just signed up to start my therapy sessions with Takisha, who is a Therapist at Potomac Shores. I am so excited about being able to begin my therapy sessions. I am even more delighted that I can get medication management AND therapy through Potomac Shores!
So, to sum it up, Potomac Shores has made an outstanding impression on me. Even the office atmosphere is welcoming and very clean. I can tell that they take pride in the work that they do and that they care about their patients. I am so lucky to have found Potomac Shores! Now, I will be able to move forward in my mental health recovery.
