Reviews of Progressive Psychiatry, P.A. (Psychiatrist)

On Point

The doctor himself was very kind and empathetic but unfortunately the solutions he suggested were rather expensive suggestions. If you have money or good insurance I would suggest this place, otherwise consider MyHealthMyResources (MHMR- formerly known as Mental Health Mental Retardation).

$400 initial consult - not sure why it's so much to have a conversation with a doctor. I got the brand new doctor. She was very sweet, but quite unprofessional. Didn't review my chart, she told me. So it was an awkward first few moments while I sat on her couch. I guess that's my fault, I did show up 6 minutes early, which she seemed quite shocked I would be so prompt. I'm not entirely sure why. I feel like this place is looking for the quickest solutions and the easiest patients. After having some concerns about the discussed medications, I used their patient portal to communicate. I ended up feeling really confused and felt like I had spent a lot of money to just be more clueless about how to get the help I need. My doctor said she would call me, she didn't, I waited over 24 hours and then I reached out to Dixon. He got back to me very quickly! But then I was told I'm basically too needy and they wouldn't be seeing me at the practice. He assumed my questions meant I needed an additonal appointment, no... a follow up in a month would have been fine, but I was confused on the medication so I emailed. His response... I was shocked. I was diagnosed and prescribed, told to review the med and it's possible side effects, but then once doing so, I reached out to discuss different options and they've closed their doors on me. Arg! I wouldn't recommend this place to anyone. Very very expensive for what service you are given. I was really expecting so muchmore. I hope they read this and listen to understand their patients. I've kept all the emails sent back and forth. Dixon promised a full refund and apologized to me that they wouldn't be able to help me further since apprently asking questions about my medication is deemed too needy. Good Luck to you Docs! **Response to the response** EVERYTHING you just replied with, you proved otherwise. I DID email you, and you shut your door on me! Your facility isn't an open door allowed to ask questions facility. Before ever emailing Dr. Dixon, I had read all these google reviews and thought "Man! Wish I had read these sooner!" because I saw the same reply you just gave me, and I thought, "Hey! I'll email Dixon! He seems like an approachable down to earth doctor! He can help me out with how I"m feeling towards the appointment I just had on Sunday... Glad to know I have this safe environment to communicate and get the assistance I need!" WRONG!!! FALSE!!! This review is meant to warn others like me... don't think you can email him because he sounds so understanding. He's not. This standard response he's been replying to all the 1 star reviews is hog wash. I was really excited thinking Dixon and his staff was going to be comfortable to work with. I knew the fees seemed high before I went, but I thought that would mean better care and more comprehensive analysis and treatment. It's not. It's just a scam after the people in Southlake.

I truly can’t believe how hard it is to get into a psychiatrist these days and Progressive has to be the worst! So impersonal and a major waiting game only to find out they can take you, but AFTER you see someone else (and they give no recommendations). So if you need to get in with this place in your lifetime... find somewhere else to go!

From day one we had a terrible experience with this doctor. I left multiple messages over the course of a week. Lack of communication continued to be an issue causing us to look else where for services.

Emily Daniell

So thankful for Dr. Dixon. We have seen lots of providers throughout the years, and Dr. Dixon gave us hope. He was kind, empathetic and offered attainable goals. For what he provided, his cost is reasonable and worth the wait to get into a physician. Highly recommend.

I got bad service from the start. I left 3 leave message asking for a call back to set an appt and then ended up having to get my childrens' therapy office to call them just to get a return phone call to set our first appointment. Then come the day of our appointment, 40 minutes prior to, they called to cancel due to the doctor not feeling well. As a working mother trying to balance a work schedule, therapy schedule and appointments for 2 autistic 5 years olds this was just not acceptable. I was referred to them by our ABA therapy office and notified them of our experience and asked for another recommendation for med management . I will say when I did talk to their office staff they were very nice and respectful, they just dont seem to have their stuff together. Sorry to say. Hopefully others have a better experience than we did.

We love Dr Dixon. He is very knowledgeable and kind. We brought our five year old son in a few months ago for some help with his ADHD. We have chosen to hold off on medication for now and Dr Dixon is not pushy. He’s given us some discipline strategies that have seemed to help a bit. He’s a good fit for our son and we will continue to work with him. We are so thankful that we found this Dr.

Dr. Dixon’s infectious warmth and humor, consistency and clinical skill allow him to develop the trusting relationships with children, teens and parents that are essential for growth. Rather than relying solely on medication, Dr. Dixon takes a more holistic approach to treatment and is committed to equipping children and teens with the lifelong skills they need to overcome challenges and increase wellness. He prioritizes empowering parents to effectively navigate the challenges of parenting while learning additional strategies for supporting their kids and is a strong advocate for his patients and their families. Dr. Dixon also advocates for issues that impact families, including healthcare and education, at the local, state and national level. Working with him for several years in a community health clinic allowed me to experience what an asset he is to patients and their families, colleagues and the community.
