My doctor is one of the best in the industry, she treats me like I am her only patient, every time I message her in portal she always answers within minutes. She cares about you and your well being. When you have problems with meds or prescriptions, I have seen her take care of it even after hours. I have been under her care for 2+ years and I would say she is a very strong professional counselor ! I would recommend her to anyone!!!!!!!!⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 10 stars

I just wanted to thank Melissa Aull and the phone support staff for helping to quickly remedy the situation of finding a prescription refill at a walgreens that was open post Milton. I'm feeling much better after 7 days without a refill from my previous pulmonary doctor I lost at the fall of the diagnostic clinic in late August. I look forward to continuing my healing process with your corporation. Greta thanks to all involved. It was a full team job solved relatively quickly together.

I love Dr Aull. In the past the other doctors I’ve been put through much more pills. Dr Aull helped me get me off of several. I feel much better. Lastly, I appreciate her listening to my concerns and we discuss them. So so many other doctors just don’t care. I’m thrilled with LifeStance.
