See what our patients are saying about Vanessa Freeman

Dr. Freeman and Leslie Westmoreland are both caring healthcare providers. They always conduct themselves to the highest degree of professionalism. We have benefited significantly from their care over the last few years. They take the time to understand what issues and concerns we have. I am also impressed with the knowledge they possess within their fields of expertise. They are also well prepared prior to our visits. I am extremely happy with the service they provide. We are much better off with both of them helping us through a difficult season of life.

She is a godsend. I have been so grateful to have her as my psychiatrist. She really cares and it took me a while to find someone as great as her! I would never want anyone else because she has been with me through some of the hardest stuff I have ever been through. She ALWAYS has my back and we have a lot of trust. Seriously, you couldn’t find better.

Dr. Freeman helped me to be finally be free from the baggage I’ve carried for 50 years. Dr. Freeman has helped both my husband and me. I’m 64 years old, & Mark has been right beside me for 46 years. After trying to find help for a doctor that would listen to me, I searched Google & found her! GOD is who helped us find each other.

I have been so very pleased to be working with Dr Vanessa Freeman. I feel more positive when I’m working with her. I also need to mention Leslie. I was with her for TMS therapy for 36 visits. I had a wonderful rapport with her. She was a great listener and was also prompt for my appointments. I really love Dr Freeman and Leslie!
