The doctor is really nice but the front desk gives you attitude! I'm just trying to make an appointment and you're getting mad at me for asking what days are available that's ridiculous. You work at a facility that helps with mental health and your acting like a rude miserable person.

THIS IS THE WORST PLACE TO EVER SEEK HELP. I was involved and medicated with another facility who referred me to these people. FOR months it was impossible to get a proper intake, along with ANY therapy. IT WAS three months before I COULD get incontact with a doctor for medicine. It is truly despicable that when you are in need of help you can not even get any from a place that is willing to provide it. Especially after this year you would think, mental health would be a priority for facilities. DO NOT BOTHER WORKING WITH THESE PEOPLE.
