I can't say enough good about Dr. Santy.When I was looking for someone, I asked the nurses who they'd use. All of them said Dr. Santy, and I have to agree. I am very happy she was allowed to do a remote practice. She is sympathetic, supportive, and always available.

Dr Santy makes me feel I'm not alone with this depression
Dr Santy is the best! She has been my psychiatrist for years, and I always feel I have gotten a higher level of care. She listens, explains, and is engaged with me during my appointment.
I was in the middle of TMS treatments when my psychiatrist flew the coop.a nurse was subbing for the TMS treatments. I asked her who she would use and she immediately pointed to Dr. Santy.You can't get higher praise than that from people who watch you work. The nurse was correct. Dr. Santy is empathetic and professional. She is outstanding.
Answered questions about medication which was appreciated.
Dr Santy is the best! Knowledgeable, good listener; discusses issues and possible solutions; recommends steps forward. I have worked with a number of psychiatrists, as we've moved around the world and US. There have been other good doctors, for sure.

Excellent session with all concerns addressed.
Dr Santy is excellent. She is helping manage my stress and focus on the positive aspects of my life during a most difficult time as a caregiver who is going to lose my husband.
Not an advice-giving session as I did most of the talking. More of an update. Another session scheduled.
She's to busy watching the clock and leaves before the time is up and said it was because she had other patients to see, I don't think she cares at all and she's just rushing thongs through.
The focus of our visits is always on what's best for our needs
Good explanation on why I'm on the medication and treatment plan.
Great.
All good
