Reviews of North Houston Psychiatry, PLLC (Psychiatrist)

Ashley E

I haven't been to a psychiatrist since the beginning of October, I've been suffering from severe depression and anxiety, but for some reason after I had my son I had PPD and was put on Zoloft for a yr. My prescription ran out and I had no choice but to see a psychiatrist, instead of helping me they just diagnosed me with bipolar disorder, told me to stop nursing my son, stop zoloft, and to take latuda. Well I did, and not a week later I ended up in a psychiatric hospital for 5 days. I think it was the sudden stop of zoloft replaced with latuda and klonopin that made me have a mental break down. Still no one would listen to me, I was branded with bipolar disorder, something I knew was outrageous. I've been to doctor after doctor for years, no one cared, they just kept throwing meds at me. So I got tired and gave up. Then I realized I was in a deep depression and it was affecting my family, so I found this place. Went in today really nervous, but every one was really nice. I didn't see Dr.Godsey, but someone else. His name was Emmanuel? I believe. He was calm, and not at all intimidating like all the others. He allowed to talk about how I felt, he was like part psychiatrist part therapist, which was awesome. I've never in my life had any psychiatrist ask me what my strengths were, about my past, and whats going on in my life right now. He also said that my past trauma was most likely affecting my present. He asked me why I think I had that break down, after I told him, he agreed. The first person to actually LISTEN. I finally feel hopeful.

terrible staff. Girls up front always in their phones.

I was a first time new patient. When I booked, I requested Dr. Godsy. The appointment was scheduled for a Saturday and when I arrived (on time) I was informed "he's running behind". When I asked "How far behind" she refused to give me any estimate saying "He doesn't cut people off and I don't know which ones might be simple refills". In total I ended up waiting for over an hour. During that time, the receptionist asked me 3 different times to pay up front. I kept telling her that without any estimate I didn't know if I would be able to wait to see him and I wanted to pay after. She said they don't allow people to pay after because they "run out without paying". After the hour it was finally my turn, so I paid the co-pay and went back. When I got back, it was not Dr. Godsy. I asked the name and title of the person I was meeting with and I was informed he was a nurse practitioner. I was completely baffled as to why they would put a brand new patient with no history and no diagnosis with a nurse practitioner instead of a Doctor. So, at this point I asked to cancel my appointment. Which they agreed to. But then they informed me that the credit card terminals were already closed out for the day so I would have to wait until Monday for a refund. This sounded terrible since the other reviews I've seen on Google say that they never return phone calls. The one saving grace, and why I'm giving them 2 stars instead of 1, is that she did actually proactively call ME by 10:00 AM the following Monday and complete the refund. I will personally still be going elsewhere for my needs, but at the very least it appears they're hopefully working on improving their callbacks.

I went with my boyfriend to his appts. Currently he is experiencing withdrawals from Lexapro because the “nurse practitioner” (he’s not even a licensed psychiatrist ) will not refill the prescription without an appt even tho he’s been on this medication for over 6 months. The office originally said that our insurance would cover the visits and then called him an hour before his most recent appt that he will have to pay $464 or cancel. We payed over the phone and still had to cancel. The Nurse Practitioner did not do a through evaluation, and is scamming by having patients come back every month for a 5 min visit. This is a very unethical practice. We’re so lucky we have an appt with a different, licensed, doctor next week. However we will just have to deal with the withdrawal symptoms until then.

Poir service. Schedule to see them in 2 months but only wrote a 30 day prescription. They wont bother to write another refill and choose to blame the pharmacy even though they are the ones that wrote the prescription. Already feeling withdrawal symptoms and left helpless. Nice place and location but bad help. I don't reccomend them for your mental health needs.

My daughter is a patient here and each time I have called they always return my calls. No office is perfect. Dr. Godsey is thorough and compassionate. He listened to all of my concerns and ensured we were on the same page. Emmanuel is great as well.

Unable to reach clinical support staff during posted office hours, no appointment reminders, and no feedback on form submitted thought there website.

Dr. Godsy is the best psychiatrist!

Called to see Dr as new patient (cash pay) receptionist was rude and hung up on me after calling back she had no interest in adding me as a potential new patient. Must be nice to have the kind of job security to be rude to potential new patients.

overall quite good.
