I found Lifestance due to a recommendation. My previous doctor was a nightmare. months to get an appt and was either way late or canceled and rescheduled for another month away and then did same thing the following month. I just at first concluded that was the way the industry operated. When I called my expectations were pretty low. Lifestance got me a telehealth appt for 2 days after my call and a follow up call for 2 weeks after that. Melinda Fisher is knowledgeable, compassionate and actually does what she says she is going to do. Many many thanks

It was so easy to schedule an appointment and everyone I spoke with treated me with compassion and respect. Melissa Fischer listened to what I had to say and what my needs and wants were. She spent the time and effort going over my history and asking the questions needed for my background. She wanted to make sure I understood my plan of action and make sure I was comfortable with what WE had come up with. She is highly recommended.

Melissa has been wonderful. She continues to be wonderful. She has made a huge difference in my life. She listens, pays attention, is never judgmental. I feel so comfortable being honest with my ups and downs. She cares and it shows, she takes the time to interact with me. She has been a lifesaver. The quality of my day to day life is getting better everyday. I look forward to continuing to work with her.

I’m so glad I found Melissa! I chose her based on reviews I read about her. I totally understand why she is loved so much. I’ve only seen her a handful of times, but already feel a bond… she’s very soft spoken, compassionate and takes sincere interest. This field of psychiatric care needs more people like her!! She’s great!!

Very professional. I really like the experience i have when going to my appointments. They don't keep you waiting . They cover everything that needs to be covered and let's you say anything that needs to be said. They will take the time you need to tell them what is going on and know the best best way to treat you. Rick Blei
