I think the fact that this business has zero reviews really speaks volumes about the enormous stigma surrounding mental health, and its a real shame because I would recommend the professionals at Advantage Mental Health to anyone who needs help with anxiety, depression, addiction, or anything remotely related. I first came to this office in May 2015 in a very, very bad way. I dont think I need to explain further about the state of mind I was in. I saw Dr. Obregon and after taking my personal and medical history he provided me with a diagnosis and started me on medication, all the while reassuring me that what I was going through was highly treatable and that I would be ok. Shortly after I switched to Lisa Ramos because of her more flexible availability; she is a psychiatric nurse (who in my opinion is just as knowledgeable as the doctors) and shes fantastic. She truly cares about you, wants you to get well, and is 100% dedicated and determined to get you on the right track. It took some trial and error but Ive been on a combination of medication for several months that has truly transformed my life thanks to her knowledge. Ive also spoken to Dr. Hervey over the phone (very helpful and reassuring) as well as Carrie Lynn, a nurse on staff who can answer any medical questions if your doctor is unavailable. David and Nikki man the front desk and both are delightful. They always offer water and coffee and snacks and make you feel welcome and comfortable. I felt safe, heard, and valued with everyone I encountered in this office. They truly saved my life and I recommend them with my whole heart. If youre struggling, reach out and ask for help. Its out there, you just have to take the first step.

I have been going here since June of 2016, after seeing a handful of doctors and prescribers who treated me like a file rather than a person. After a complete lack of empathy and understanding in this field, I set up an appointment with Lisa. It has changed my life, literally. Everyone that works here really does care. If youre not drug seeking, you will have no problems getting your prescriptions filled and refilled. There is really good communication through the office from reception to the doctors and therapists, and everyone works as a team. Lisa is very caring and will treat you like a human (not all prescribers act like this) and the staff at the front of the house is super nice and accommodating. They will even fill out your insurance forms if it applies. Danielle is awesome. I have seen several therapists, and shes the only one with whom I have made any progress. I highly recommend this place. I literally look forward to my sessions with Danielle.

The practices of this place should be illegal. They have the audacity to promote, and over-prescribe, suboxone as a long-term (possibly life-long) maintenance therapy which "prevents relapse". Ha! How can you relapse if you STAY addicted to a drug? I find it absolutely disgusting that they advocate for a drug that numbs people; reduces empathy and compassion; causes people to lie, cheat and steal to feed their addiction. And when I called to try to help my loved one, they told me we could come in for a therapy session together - yeah, so they can profit as much as possible. These "doctors" are just thug drug-dealers. They must pay their front office staff well, because theyre pushing the agenda as well.

Today was my first visit and I could not say how thrilled I am. The staff are so helpful and kind (thank you Nikki and David). It was very homey, yet extremely professional. Ive looked for so long for a good place to aid me with my panic disorder with agoraphobia. Not only with medication, but beyond. This is the place Ive been looking for. Lisa Ramos-Archbold, ARNP-C is wonderful and a great listener. She;s kind and empathetic. I must say I was very nervous, but my my fears have been laid to rest. If youre looking for a good place to help you, this is the place. These people actually care. Thank you to each and every one of you! One less stress on my soul is a great thing.

I just recently started going here... and Ive got to say so far this place has gone above and beyond anything you normally would expect from a Drs office. Great staff and great Drs... usually from what Ive seen thats a rare occurrence.
