See what our patients are saying about Suzanne M. King

I was sad to find out Dr. King was leaving Center Point. I have been with Dr. King for more than three years. She helped me through some difficult times. It took work and time, but she helped me become stable. I feel like she always listened to me and was working with my best interests in mind. I felt like we collaborated, but when the time came for her to take the lead and be the expert, that she made good decisions and gave good counsel. I would definitely recommend Dr. King.

I cannot say enough nice things about the Life stance team. But my Doctor has a super special place in my heart! Dr. Suzanne King is the best she listens to all of my concerns and is well educated in her craft. When I was in crisis she was there, I truly believe she saved me, an then helped me change my life . The progress I have made under her care is amazing! Thank you for all that you have done for me! I’m forever grateful

I really felt like Dr. King listens to me. She was always friendly and caring. She took me in when my previous Doctor had me over medicated. She gave me my life back. I feel in control of my Bi-polar disorder. Her staff was hard to work with though.
