The staff is very hit or miss. some people there are very sweet whilst others are awful. i saw a social worker named karen (of course lol) who seemed to hate me as soon as she saw me. she yelled at me a few times and insulted me in a shady way. she quit before i mustered up the courage to report her, lucky her! she's probably terrorizing other innocent people somewhere else. the doctor, dr. cermik is condescending and somewhat racist. he made fun of a disabled black guy who would go round the building and made gorilla noises imitating him! completley inappropriate! he also is always talking about himself and his family as if its relevant. he asks me how im doing and then when i ask him he starts rambling about his family.ummm what? maybe he's just trying to be friendly but he does it a lot and its annoying. im looking elsewhere for help but i have very little hope to find a good therapist, i have gone through so many of them.

Three out of three appointments made (both in person and by phone). and each time my appointment was cancelled without notifying me, the patient. Completely unprofessional and detrimental to already at risk clients. I will advise anyone I see to steer clear from this place. I will be reporting to the state.just came back because my lhcsw just called me back to put all the blame on me for them cancelling my appointments with ZERO notification. She continually talked over me on the phone in order to argue. Completely disgraceful and again UNPROFESSIONAL. Go here if you want to continue to decline in your mental health.

This place is absolutely unprofessional and you think dealing with people with mental health they would be held to a certain type of standard. Telling me an apt time is the time I'm going to go by, if someone tells me my apt time and the automated system tells me a time and has me confirm that time, why would I assume I have to show up earlier than my expected time. And no apologizes, just ( nobody told you to come earlier ) obviously not.

They have no consideration, and obviously terrible communication they don't even care, they just move you along. No services moving forward for here, I should've known to stay away from the previous reviews to begin with, nothing really has changed here. I would stay away and just find somewhere else to go to, being honest especially being in a mental state of mind you don't deserve this.

Tried to make an appointment here and was turned down. No referrals, no help, no guidance on what next steps to take. Receptionist seemed bored and irritated with trying to help.

I have been going to The Providence Center for about 15 years. I have been through a lot of doctors and therapists but I am stable. I'm currently looking for a job and am going through their program. Yes sometimes there are problems, but keep in mind it's a clinic. They take in lots of different types of people. I wouldn't go anywhere else.

Be very carful before booking an appointment here, unless you have a severe drug problem or you are homeless and can't seem to get help anywhere else this place may be for you.otherwise stay far away from this facility it's very dangerous and the doctors, therapists and psychologists are all extremely rude to deal with. For those of you who disbelieve this post walk in there for your self and make your own decisions.
