Vaishali Cooper

The psychiatrists here have really gone above and beyond to meet my needs! They take the time to listen to you and they're available to message in case any problems arise. Plus, they're respectful of my pronouns and identity! If I could give more than 5 stars, I would!

I have not had the virtual appointment yet so I can't give a review on the actual appointment but customer service up to this point has been extremely good. I have been treated enthusiastically and the staff were completely helpful with any questions I had. If the appointment goes well I will be a loyal client.

Animo Sano has helped me understand how my mind works. They have been professional and listen carefully to my concerns. My life has improved greatly since starting there.
