GARY L. KANTER, MD REVIEWS

Dr. Kanter is an amazing Psychiatrist. He really cares for his patients and he understands how to provide the best care for my relative. I have not had to worry about the level of care for my relative since she started seeing him. My family and I thank Dr. Kantor for all he has been able to do to better our lives.

One of the sharpest doctors I've ever met. Knows his discipline cold and is well versed in a wide variety of protocols - can't say enough good things about him.

Wish I could give home more than 5 stars. Really explains things well without being condescending.

LAWRENCE ADU, MD REVIEWS

I have had a very positive experience with this office. Dr. Adu Lawrence has a warm and friendly demeanor. He is a good listener, also empathetic and understanding, and knowledgeable and communicative. It’s a refreshing experience compared to other doctors I have had experience with. His wife runs the front desk and operations. She is very pragmatic and organized. I have never had any issues. I also like that this is a small local private office versus a large corporation.

Dr. Adu is a great Dr. and has always listened to me and helped me get my life back on track. I have such a better quality of life now and I have a much different outlook on life as a whole. Only negative I can think of is the parking area is almost nonexistent so if you don't have an early morning appointment then expect to have trouble finding a spot to park.

I have seen Dr. Adu as a client for about the last 6 years. He is the most helpful, insightful and empathetic Psychiatrist I have encountered in my 50+ years experience as a psychiatric outpatient. I have had nothing but professional, understanding interactions with all of his staff. Thank You All.

KENT WENGER, MD REVIEWS

Dr. Kent Wenger is an excellent representative of his field. Dr. Wenger is very interested in the welfare of everyone he has referred to him. I am very blessed to have had the opportunity to work with him. I had looked for at least an adequate therapist and psychiatrist since I was 15 years old. I always struggled with my self esteem, tried to control my moods and there was always a part of me that never liked myself largely because I didn't really understand what or who I was! I went in to the same field and studied for 10 years to try to understand and get a handle on myself. It wasn't until I met Dr Wenger that my life turned around. I finally found all the help I needed in one place. He is an excellent pharmacologist as well as an excellent therapist and diagnostician. He saved my life.

Dr. Wenger seems to be the first professional I’ve seen in 25 years that understands my needs and medication therapy. He’s courteous, determined to get to the issues and is always a call away if I need him. His office manager Carolyn is the sweetest, caring person you could meet, highly recommend. Thank you Dr. Wenger you’ve restored my hope in the mental health community.

This Dr has been an absolute blessing to my life he genuinely cares about me and wants to get to the root of the problems I'll always have respect for him and Mrs Carolyn because they saved my life about a year ago when I called for the first time.
