Steven Sedmak has far exceeded my expectations as a therapist! He is the first counsellor in over 20yrs who has tried to get to the root causes of my depression, failed relationships and reactions to life situations.Working with him has greatly improved my mental health. He is very knowledgeable about many aspect of mental health and trauma.He is very kind and patient. He is on time and lets me work at my own pace. He returns my calls promptly if Im in crisis. I cant say enough good things about him. An added bonus is virtual appointments are available..He is amazing and an asset to Sharon Medical Group/PHN

I contacted the office last week and was told to see a specialist even though it could take 3 months to get into their office and that my pcp wouldn't do anything for me even though my issue is happening right now, not 3 months from now. I made it clear that I would look for a new specialist and a pcp on my own and asked the office to not contact me again as I didn't wish to continue with their practice since the doctor wasn't taking my concerns seriously. Since that day, they have called me everyday multiple times, sometimes the calls are coming within 5 minutes of eachother. I finally submitted a request to "customer service" and was told what they were doing was acceptable and that they magically found a specialist who could see me next week after originally telling me they didn't have anyone to refer me to. 🤷♀️ Long story short, look for a different pcp- especially if you are a female of childbearing age.

Dr. Ahmed refuses to listen/help his patients. He is rude and makes it so I’m uncomfortable sharing any info with him. I was told my mental health is apparently a “trend” by a therapist and anytime I try to talk about serious problems they make me feel like worse for speaking up. One of the worst offices I’ve experienced in my 14 years of going to therapy.

I went for an intake with the Behavioral group, and when I met with Dr. Ahmed, right off the bat, he was arrogant, condescending, and made me feel like I was being interrogated in a police station. His whole demeanor and the fact that he was interrogating me like that made me feel extremely scared and unsafe. When I told him that I was feeling attacked, not only did he continue to be condescending and arrogant, he showed me the door. Dr. Ahmed is a poor excuse for a psychiatrist, and I'm seriously considering reporting him to both the state and Medicaid.

Dr Rajvi Patel is outstanding. Vibrant personality, very caring and concerned about overall wellbeing. I find the staff from reception to nursing pleasant and professional. I love that the office doesn't overbook. It makes me feel like my health is important and I am a priority.
