Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Negative Stars
If I could give a zero or negative star rating I would! There is such a lack of communication and care that it’s a joke this is considered a Psychiatric facility.

Rudest front office
This staff is so rude. Our appts were late afternoon and the office staff was always too busy trying to close to print me a receipt. I emailed and called many times trying to get a billing summary and it took more than five months for me to finally get the information I needed. I was 5-10 minutes late for an appt one day which I called them and the doctor beforehand to let them know that my daughters bus had been late getting home, there was a wreck, and it was raining., but that I was on my way and about 5 mins away. The front staff insisted that I needed to reschedule and pay a no show fee even though the doctor was willing to see me. This practice is all about the money! I left and haven’t regretted it at all! There are many other practices that are more caring than this place! Run away!

No place for strugglers – Nov 30, 2021
×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Wilson?
I would not recommend seeing Anika Wilson for psychiatry. She was not personable, cold, uncaring and showEd no interest in my needs and concerns at hand. I saw her for three years on the account of convenience with my relocation to hsv. Every appointment was less than 20 mins and my last time in her office she asked me how many sister I had....Again.... after three years. The office staff was rude and Annika pushed me into feeling like I had no control over MY mental health.

Rudest office staff I have ever encountered at a doctor's office. Poor service and lack of compassion. I cried when I left their office because of the way they treated me and my child.

Their office staff is rude and the practice will try to bleed you dry. They gave me mis-dated appointment cards TWICE while also not sending me appointment confirmation texts, then insisted I pay $130 or I couldn’t see the dr for my maintenance medications. They do not care about your wellbeing, avoid at all costs.

Our first appointment with Dr. Wilson I was not super pleased. She did not smile once the whole time. She was not friendly. I think maybe she was just having a bad day because since then, she’s been nicer. She isn’t a super warm and friendly type person but she does a good job prescribing meds for my son. I would prefer someone more personable, but there is a huge shortage oof child psychiatrists in the area!

Dr Wilson is knowledgeable, thorough, and creative with finding solutions and the correct mix of medications to treat my elementary school aged autistic child. She clearly explains pros and cons and offers options to me in deciding how to treat my child. She listens to how my child is responding to meds day to day and also offers suggestions for non-medication interventions. Our appointments never feel rushed. I can highly recommend Dr. Wilson.

She goes above and beyond to further my success and I couldn't do this without her.

The most bizarre doctor visit in my life! I brought in my daughter for ADD challenges for FIRST visit. Her receptionist was very kind. Dr Wilson however, didn't exhibit basic social skills (courtesies such as an introduction, hello, or goodbye). Didn't ask anything about our family dynamic. She seemed extremely irritated and condescending. Never smiled during the entire visit. Not at all personable. If you need help, how are you supposed to trust her sour personality? She needs help! Run away!
