Compassionate, Comprehensive Care That Works
After nearly a year of debilitating symptoms and a frustrating cycle of referrals at Kaiser, I was exhausted and still without answers. Each doctor ran their tests, shrugged, and passed me off to someone else. No one connected the dots. The moment my primary care physician said, "I've got nine minutes to spend with you, and it's already been eight," I knew I had to look elsewhere.
That turning point led me to Amen Clinics, thanks to a trusted recommendation from a close friend of my wife's. We researched their approach and booked an appointment, cautiously optimistic.
From the start, the experience was different. After a detailed intake, medical records review, and a SPECT scan, I met with Dr. Momaya. He was everything I hadn't found elsewhere: thoughtful, compassionate, and deeply thorough. He didn't just interpret the scan, he integrated it with all my previous tests and built a clear, cohesive understanding of what was happening. For the first time, I felt truly seen.
And then, things started to change. Dr. Momaya adjusted my treatment with precision, recommended targeted therapies, and even suggested lifestyle shifts that made a real difference. Week by week, I improved. And for the first time in a long time I had hope.
Today, I'm 99.9% back to where I was years ago. In some ways, I'm even better.
I can't overstate how grateful I am to Dr. Momaya and the team at Amen Clinics. They are prompt, kind, compassionate, and most importantly, effective. If you're searching for answers and haven't found them elsewhere, this is the place to go.

At the Seattle Amen Clinic, my parents and I were greeted by two friendly reception staff. The reception area was quite comfortable and spacious. Then the SPECT instrument specialist walked me through the entire prescanning and scanning procedure at a very comfortable pace. I felt quite comfortable during the scans over the two days and I never felt rushed during the whole time. From visiting the Amen Clinic to meeting the doctor online, it has been a very positive experience and I feel that my health goals are moving in the right direction.

My daughter had a mental breakdown and we were going through Kaiser, which would seem to be connected as you see only Kaiser people, but was very difficult to navigate and did not at all feel like they were caring for her as a whole person. Through this breakdown, she was diagnosed bipolar. We did not have the money for the Amen clinic, but did it anyway and put it on a credit card. It was the best decision we ever made. Getting her care specifically tailored to her brain scans and unique needs has made all the difference. The Amen clinic treated all of her, and all the doctors that helped her were connected in a way we never felt with Kaiser. Today, three years later, my daughter is 100% back to the person she was before all this started (which I wasn't sure was going to be possible when we started this journey). She is faithful to her medication and counseling and I can 100% say this is due to the Amen clinic. Taking this debt on was the best decision my husband and I made for her care and we would do it again in a heartbeat.

As a mom, there’s nothing more painful than watching your child struggle and not knowing how to help. We came to Amen Clinics during a very emotionally difficult time for our daughter, and I can’t fully express how thankful we are for the care, compassion, and clarity we received. Every single person we encountered went above and beyond; far beyond anything I’ve ever experienced at a doctor’s office. From bringing us tea, to taking the time to answer every question, to even sitting on the floor and playing with our daughter so we could talk to the doctors in peace .we were in the hands of people who truly care. For any parent feeling lost, unsure, or desperate for answers, I cannot recommend Amen Clinics enough. This team gave us not only insight, but hope.

The Amen clinic was able to figure out my sleep issues after years of insomnia. Highly recommend making the investment as the spect scan was able to see into areas other tests cannot and the team was able to make a plan based on those results. Worth the money and the staff is awesome!
Dr Darmal and his team at Amen Clinics are professional, caring and responsive.
I went to them with a brain injury and they quickly diagnosed and treated my issues.

I really appreciate the patience and time Dr. Karimpour took to visit and consult with us. I could tell that she knows from experience how to best help her patients. Her expertise allowed me to make changes to my routine and my medicine that helped me feel better about myself.

I've received nothing short of excellent care from Amen Clinics. From the front desk staff, Hailey and Luis, to the Patient Outcome Managers Ashley and Makayla, to the Clinic Director Elle, to my evaluating physician Dr. Johnson, and my therapy counselor Paige. I have never been treated with such compassion, understanding and expertise. This team treats you with individual care and respects the delicate nature of brain health.
I have never felt more validated, seen and cared for in any level of medical care in my entire life. I recommend this clinic to all that are interested and know that you will find the care that you deserve with this team.

Dr. Amen is the GOAT!!
Dr. Emina at the Amen clinic was able to help our teen, after dozens of neurologists, psychologists and therapists could not. He is compassionate, whip-smart and data-driven. Our teen connected with him immediately and trusted his guidance, which has turned her life around. If you feel like you have tried it all, yet are still suffering from mental health or learning issues, it's time to visit the Amen Clinic!
Nicole Nestor-Gray
Dr. Momaya was wonderful. Met me where I was at with interpreting my scans. Offered insight beyond a traditional MD. Great connection and I left feeling heard. He kick started my healing journey and for that I am truly grateful. I have nothing but respect for him and the Amen Team!
Dr. Darmal has been a thoughtful and steady guide for over six years. His insight, patience, and encouragement made a lasting impact. I'm grateful for his support and the difference he has made through his care and wisdom.
I really listened to him carefully and took his thoughts seriously. He gives little nuggets of wisdom on small doses which helped my family member. Sometimes simple but it's the small changes, consistency and realizing things just takes time. Expecting instant change is not realistic. Thank you for helping me as a mother.
Also, I believe in the vitamins work too!

My experience at the Amen Clinics Costa Mesa was excellent. They were amazingly accommodating and treated me with kindness and respect. I am very thankful I was able to attend this clinic which has given me a new perspective on my health and personal goals.
Johnny Shee
My experience with the Amen Clinic has been absolutely wonderful. All of the staff there are extremely nice and helpful. My assigned intake person was Emily Brownrigg who was exceptionally nice and very professional. I feel I am getting the best care possible and look forward to a long and successful relationship with them.
Cori Fox
Kristen is hands down the best therapist I have ever had. Intelligent, intuitive, pivots as needed easily, and doesn’t miss ANYthing. I needed a quality therapist who could see through my diversions and she is the first one to ever nail it, and she does it consistently! I am so thankful. My mental health has improved considerably under her care.
Grant Schettler
One of the best They combine innovation and creativity with empathy and new exciting forms of help.
Morgan Nyberg
I have had nothing but an amazing experience with the Amen Clinics here in Costa Mesa. Everything from my brain scans to my on going therapy sessions with Kristen it has been nothing but supportive and helpful. Her assistant Luis, along with everyone and anyone in the clinic have been nothing but friendly and attentive. Thank you so much Amen Clinics!
I wish I had come to Amen clinics so many years earlier as it has made such a change in my everyday being. I always knew I had some element ADHD but learned it was more than I realized as I watched Dr. Amen and his wife Tana speaking about it on videos. After 2-3 weeks of being on supplements, I felt a calm that I had not felt before. Even without anxiety, I didn't understand that my mind was in the frantic state that I had become accustomed to since my teens (I'm in my late 40s). The calm was strange but peaceful and I am now able to finish tasks without thinking about what else I need to do or going in between different tasks at the same time. I am looking forward to "catching up" with life where it always seemed impossible and to starting a business that I have always wanted to but felt held back from because of my lack of focus.
The people working in the clinic are amazing too. It is so nice to be known by name every time I walk in. Everyone is so friendly! Dr. Momaya has been great, Elle is so helpful, Hedy is so sweet in HBOT (I love seeing her every time I come in), and I always enjoy chatting with Dr. Gattis as he answers my neurofeedback curiosity questions or having conversations with him about what affects frequencies in my brain and connecting the dots. It's so fascinating!
If you are considering coming in, I would definitely take the step to at least start the conversation and find out if treatment would be helpful because it certainly has made a difference for me and I am so grateful!

What can I say about the Amen Clinics, but truly an amazing organization and staff from top to bottom. The Amen Clinics understands that this process of working on ourselves starts with the doing the work. And they practice what they preach with a very comprehensive intake program that is meant to find what the root of our/the patients' challenges may be. In this instance, my son, who is an active kid, but struggle immensely with focus, concentration, impulsivity the list goes on... ADHD to a tee!!!! :) But the initial care from starting the process with Katie Benson their outreach manager (amazing energy and enthusiasm for this healing journey) and Lauren Marcheftka the diagnostic specialist who put so much care into my son and left him being so intrigued and enamored by what is to come with the brain scans, and made him feel at ease and excited to take the next steps in this wholistic approach to treating his body and mind! Dr Karimpour what an amazing treatment plan that was customized for my son and the care and time she put into answering our questions and putting forth a very comprehensive road map of supplementation, diet, potential school initiatives that we should look into to enact for his studies, and the collaboration with other therapists that we are working with as well. Very impressive of the care given and quality. And last but not least, Elle Mollet the Clinical Director for the Amen Clinics, she is amazing, the field general of the clinic who has an amazing heart and soul and understands what we needed for this healing journey. Elle's care, empathy, and support is unmatched. She gets things done and was so proactive in getting my son what he needed from the initiation of tests, to supplementation, to connecting with him; where Cash had said, "Elle is really cool!" Elle made Cash very comfortable with the entire process of the brain SPECT scan and just spoke to him with a big heart and made him feel like a rock star. So thank you Elle for your TLC and just top to bottom professionalism and care for us. The Amen Clinics understands care and service and puts the wellbeing of their patients first. We look forward to continuing our work with the Amen Clinics and cant wait to tell more of our results!

I cannot say enough good things about Amen Clinics! From the moment I walked in, I was met with professionalism, warmth, and genuine care. The front office staff are welcoming, efficient and so kind.
The Clinic Director took the time to come out to the lobby and introduce herself to me and my family and to make sure we had everything we needed and to let us know she was right around the corner if we had any questions.
For the first time in my life, I feel like I am getting the care I've always searched for.My Doctor listens deeply, takes time to understand my needs and has given me a treatment plan that I can follow.
This clinic has exceeded all my expectations. They've created an environment where quality care is the norm, and patients are treated with respect, compassion, and expertise. I am incredibly grateful to have found them and cannot recommend this clinic highly enough!

I received documents I needed very quickly! Thank you!!
Incredibly supportive environment, great mental health experience
In this job you learn so much, but not in an overwhelming way. Everything is broken down into small steps and what you end up learning here is valuable and often fascinating. The management team is so nice and supportive. I have never once felt like I can't ask a question or give/receive genuine feedback. Co-workers are also all kind and always helpful. It really feels like a team here. If you don't like sitting at a desk for most of the day, this job is not for you, and taking calls back to back can get a bit repetitive. You will hear many real-life stories from around the world, so you will learn a lot of applicable information. Many calls can be emotionally charged as well, so it takes an empathetic and patient person. This job also requires good listening and good multitasking skills. This job includes monthly potlucks/catered food, the possibility for monthly bonuses, and the management team is always creating new activities to keep things light and fun. Biggest takeaway for me is the opportunity for professional growth and mental health experience.
Brendan Martinez
Gabbi was very helpful! She is a professional and was super helpful the entire time during our dialog. Ashley is Amazing! I have a crush on her 😅 She helped me so much and is the exact type of person you’d want to talk to while dealing with whatever your ailment is. Couldn’t recommend them more Dr. Johnson was Perfect. He understood me, and is very intelligent. He is someone that I would like to keep near me, and I look forward to working with him more.
David Cha
Dr. Johnson has been amazing. I've been working with him for years now and his personable, easy-going nature makes it very easy for me to work with him. He's down-to-earth, humorous, and genuinely cares about my welfare through and through. I would recommend Dr. Johnson and Amen Clinics to anyone looking to really get better. It's not just therapy. The brain scan, medicine, combined with therapy really helps.
Macy O
Dr. Darmal and Hedy have been nothing short of extraordinary. Over the many years I’ve had the privilege of working with their team, they have consistently gone above and beyond, offering unwavering support and expertise. I can honestly say I wouldn’t be where I am today without their guidance and dedication to there practice. If you are considering working with them, I wholeheartedly recommend it—you will not be disappointed.
John Joseph Miranda
Dr. Gattis and team are great. They listen to concerns and are very helpful with giving information that we didn't even know we needed. They go above and beyond to help meet our needs. The resources they recommend are great as well.
Charles Chwalowski
Absolutely Amazing experience with Dr. Storage super thankful and grateful, he's an ADHD expert and super great psychiatrist, ver appreciative for my time with him, would reccomend
U Jaya
I have been a patient of Dr. Darmal for over 15 years and consider him a great medical professional.
Emily Fajardo
Dr. Seawell was phenomenal. He was so thorough and detailed in how he obtained history of my son's anxiety journey. He reviewed information on the brain scans etc in language that was easy to understand and incredibly helpful. He was very empathetic and willing to listen to any questions/concerns we had and provide helpful solutions. He tailored his recommendations for treatment to our family's beliefs and needs. It is evident that he has done extensive research and has much experience in his field. We would most definitely recommend him to anyone who is in need!
George Niethammer
Had a fantastic experience at Amen clinics, Makayla was a great help to make sure the process went smoothly by giving me all the help and information I needed
Colleen Riddle
I have been a patient of the Amen Clinic since August 2013. I am beyond satisfied with the personalized, excellent care I have always received from my doctor at the clinic. His care has literally saved my life and totally changed my outlook on life. Do not hesitate to let the Amen Clinic help you with your health and mental needs. Colleen Riddle
Kristin Daniels
Was very concerned about my brain, as I am 52, dad and gramma both died from Dementia, and I was just hoping to find what shape my brain is and how to be preventative moving ahead. Very expensive testing, so it was a big commitment, but I did find the tests to be thorough and Dr. Seawell, who worked with me was great in taking his time to work with me and break down all we were working with. I do have vitamin protocol which is more of an expense, but I expected this, and they were actually very conservative on taking only what I needed, and did not try to "upsell" me on a lot of other "stuff" I may need. I have a lot to do, its not an overnight fix, but I really am glad I took the step to do this, find out where I am at, and now am making a commitment to move ahead and work with the Amen Clinics to see what we can do to help my brain a bit!
Melinda Oschmann
I first heard about the Amen Clinic in 2010 when I saw a documentary starring Dr. Daniel Amen, and the use of Brain SPECTS to diagnose and resolve any neurological or psychiatric health issues. So when my husband’s HMO couldn’t resolve his sudden personality change and stress related panic attacks with the antidepressants that seemed to sedate him, I called the Amen Clinic for an Evaluation. He had not worked or improved for 5 months. The cost was reasonable for such an indepth evaluatuin that included both brain SPECTS and his total physical condition, and inclusive treatments from both a psychiatrist and Integrative doctor. Both doctors were very sensitive to his condition and very thorough in explaining the remedies which included diet, supplements and new antidepressants that took him out of the fog. Additional therapies such as EMDR was also recommended. He is nearing the 3 month mark since his brain scan, and he is almost back to his gregarious self, and showing alert behavior. The administrative and medical staff assigned to my husband are very communicative & caring. I have now signed up for an evaluation to address my growing memory problems. I highly recommend Amen Clinics.
Bita Farrokhroo
Kristen is sharp, right to the point and knows what she is doing. She is accurate, knowledgeable and skillful. Trauma doesn’t go away by itself however there are ways to get help from expert to reprocess it. To leave the weight off, feel lighter, laugh louder and live more profound.
John Hill
The Amen Clinic is a great place and I would recommend them to anyone looking for same more mental health and brain health care that might helps finding some answers that your looking for and it sure helps me with my mental health and brain health
Ronen Barda
Emily and Amen clinic have made a reL difference in our family understanding ADHD and I will affect our day-to-day lives and communication. As an adult to finally understand why I operate the way I operate and to see that there is something that can help get better is very eye-opening and exciting . Thank you Emily and Amen clinics
Michelle Chen
Prior to neurofeedback with Dr. Gattis my son had regular emotional outbursts ending in him an outburst and him fleeing the situation. He would perseverate on unhealthy thoughts and had low impulse control. I he was a very quiet and anxious. Today his verbal and non verbal communication skills, empathy, and impulse control are beyond belief. His new school advisor said she would have never guessed he was a quiet child. He is emerging as a confident young man at 14, taking healthy appropriate risks socially and physically. He is becoming a leader in his math class and on his Volleyball Club team. He told me sometimes he looks at himself and doesn’t even know who this person is. He said it was as if he had lived like one person up until seventh grade and has become a new person in eighth. When I asked him how he felt about joining the club volleyball team, even though at first he thought he was too scared, he replied,” It’s amazing, it’s like being a part of some thing I never thought I could”. Our relationship has grown much deeper as he now talks and I get to know him. Thank you Dr. Gattis. And a big thanks to Dr. Amen for providing the Daniel Plan which has helped me to be the person I am today.
Betina Genovesi
I love Amen Clinics. My daughter has CP and is non verbal. She had a stroke when I was pregnant and doctors said she would be useless. She is a super smile girl that understndas three languages. Facing disability and teenager years is not easy, so i asked for help to understand which are the real issues in her brain. After all the exams we can just say thanks for Doc Amen, Doc Emina and all the staff. Now we know what is wrong and we can take the right actions.
Taryn Mickus
The doctors at the Amen clinic were able to help our teen, after dozens of neurologists, psychologists and therapists had not. If you feel like you have tried it all, yet are still suffering from mental health or learning issues, it's time to visit the Amen Clinic.
Sean Kitchin
Emily Brownrigg demonstrated an inside awareness to my medical needs, while an expressed understanding put me at ease.
Richard Sambado
All around an AMAZING team…
Jean Zurbuchen
Dr. Plante and Dr. Emina are extremely helpful and professional in their approach. They started me on a course to solve my problems immediately and we began in the first week following the appointment. This is amazing. I hope we can meet our goals to completely solve my physical and emotional issues.
Cathy Bates
Extremely happy with Dr Filidei and his staff at Amen Clinic in Costa Mesa. In particular I would like to give a shout out to Tyler Klosterman for his excellent service. In addition to always being on top of things and even going beyond, he has a great sense of humor and is extremely compassionate and kind.
Julissa Martin
My experience has been flawless from the beginning of my initial doctor appointment with Angela Carlson. She helped in answering a lot of my questions which convinced me to book an appointment with Dr. Plante. Her patience and caring demeanor are very good. Dr. Plante was very thorough, provided me with several options for treatment, and I finally felt listened and understood by a medical professional. I am really looking forward to my next appointment with him. Jake Buhman was also a strong member of Amen Clinic’s team. His communication via email and phone call was thorough, professional, prompt, and kind. Easy to work with. Overall, it was my first experience at Amen Clinics and my only regret is not being a patient sooner.
Marilyn Harvey
We are very pleased and grateful for the support and care of our daughter. Thank you.
Chris Tran
I had a great experience with the Amen Clinics. I learned so much about my brain and how to help my anxiety through methods aside from medications. The doctor and staff were so nice and friendly. Would definitely recommend!
Vincent Nguyen
I found out about Amen Clinics through social media and decided to give it a shot and call to inquire. They were full at the time, but I got lucky and received a call a week later letting me know one of their therapists opened up. Hailey and Paige are two of the kindest and most personable people I have ever met! Hailey helped onboard me and was quick to help me with any questions I had and Paige is a great communicator and creates a safe space for me. I appreciate and recommend the both of them!!!!
Matthew Ewing (Matt E.)
Wanted to come here to impart a most sincere appreciation for the peace that Dr. Seawell and the whole support staff at the Amen clinics have afforded me. The journey I am on has become more clear and hopeful due to them. Thank you!
Larene Crossman
I like Dr. Memaya, he is a caring Doctor and wants to help his clients.
The psychiatric care is personal, therapeutic, and competent. Everyone is friendly and caring, from the phone staff, to the personal assistants. Dr. Licciardi sets an example for what a knowledgeable and caring psychiatrist should be. Brittany and Anthony are fabulous assistants, always working to resolve any complications I may be experiencing. Also, their communication with the doctor is impeccable. I highly recommend.
Adam Brown
Very friendly staff, extremely patient and knowledgeable. Super clean office, on time with minimal wait. The scan isn't much fun, but it's painless and only takes 20 minutes. I've recommended Amen Clinc to multiple family members and friends .
This place is THE BEST! The brain scan process was easy, the staff made me feel relaxed, and the overall experience was worth it to me. Dr. Karimpour at the OC office is so wonderful! She listens, she's kind and honest, and she has made it clear that her goal is to take a holistic approach (rather than just pushing tons of meds) to helping me feel my best. I am super grateful for the Amen Clinic!
Todd Black
Dr. Faber, and my Patient Outcome Manager, Emily, are amazing. I enjoy working with them. I didn't understand what was I was really getting into when I signed up for my scan (my wife and therapist insisted that I do it, so I did) but I've been pleasantly surprised and the results have been positive. So, if you're on the fence as to whether or not you should do it, I recommend that you do.
Madison Plaza
Going into my experience with the Amen Clinic, I was nervous. In the past, I haven’t had positive experiences with doctors or medical staff who have truly listened to me. My experience at the OC facility was nothing short of amazing. Emily, my outpatient manager, played a huge role in making this process feel comfortable. As I opened up about my mental health history (something that isn’t easy) Emily made me feel at ease. I felt seen, heard, and understood. It is clear that she’s passionate about helping people. Her warm, empathetic nature makes her a perfect fit for this role. Dr. Storage walked me through every step of my results in a way that was clear and compassionate. He didn’t just throw prescription my way. He sought out the root causes, recommended nutritional advice, therapeutic approaches, supplements, tools, and exercises that could improve my specific brain function. I’m genuinely excited to continue working with this incredible team. It’s extremely rare to find medical personnel who care so deeply about your well being. I can’t recommend this team highly enough. They are truly changing lives.
Going into my experience with the Amen Clinic, I was nervous. In the past, I haven't had positive experiences with doctors or medical staff who have truly listened to me. My experience at the OC facility was nothing short of amazing.

Appreciate your care and support thru the recent years as I work on issues to improve life with a brain injury. Both the supplemental medication and therapy sessions are helpful in that pursuit. Also appreciate the work of support staff.
Awesome Workplace with Purposeful Job!
Working at the Amen Clinics has been a great experience. Between the awesome coworkers, exceptionally kind management, and fun other benefits like monthly catered lunches and potlucks, working here for the past year has been a joy. The job itself can be a bit repetitive, and sometimes emotionally tolling, but the positive and fun work environment helps lighten things up when needed.
OK everybody so it's been a while and I have to say that I had to give them that extra star reason being that they have been extremely faithful in their follow up and the medication they recommended has worked wonders. I'm not saying that I'm 100% but what I am saying is that the follow ups have been very informative and very helpful so I would definitely recommend Amen clinics to you
Linda Busschau
Excellent experience , thank you .
I had Dr. Daniel Amen evaluate by SPECT advanced imaging scan, that scan was previously completed at OHSU in Portland, Oregon; his insights were helpful. Dr Amen encouraged HBOT sessions plus nutritional analysis with a future follow up. I wish HBOT was easier to get covered by Insurance
Mo Kashmiri
Some very smart and hardworking doctors here. Dr. Emina has been very helpful and figured out answers where others failed. Been very pleased with them.
***** was the accepting patient at the front desk. I brought my 10-year-old son for treatment. She was graceful and thorough in making sure our appointment went smoothly. She was able to explain the procedure and what to expect. It was my first time, and everything went well, all on time.
I have worked with ************ since 2010 beginning with the brain scan for my 22 year old daughter. Since then I have referred many of my own clients to him, and now my daughter's daughter. I've always received information that has helped the individuals. His work is brilliant and the results have been life changing. Knowing what causes certain behavior issues helps to keep the individuals off medications, and understanding reactions to life-stimuli allows all of us to know how to live without the stress from confusion and frustration. His books have also been helpful.I would not know how to help these individuals without these scans, books, and expert guidance from ************ and/or his associates. Especially for my family. ***** for his research, work, and kindness to those who struggle.
I have been with the *********** for 2 years. It took so much for me to reach out to them but I'm so thankful I did and, I had the resources to do so. I truly wish everyone could experience this type of care. There would be a lot less devastation, grief and suffering and a lot more understanding, care and hope.From the start Dr.****** has made me feel incredibly safe, listened to, and so cared for. His compassion and empathy is something Ive never felt by any other person in my life. Im not sure I ever will.Because of him, his wonderful Care Coordinator - *******, their combined care, appointments, follow-**** emails/reminders, Im now feeling better than I have in so many years.******* is truly precious and she deserves to be celebrated along with Dr. ******* They pay such great attention to detail and their thoroughness in needs. From the first appointment, to the scan, to the follow-up/plans, check-*** and everything in-between.Dr. Chakra is such a supportive doctor, he has such a beautiful heart. Ive never been happier with a doctor. Ive never experienced such emotional care and support in my life.Literally from anyone.AMEN CLINIC - is so important to me.
Rewarding job
I honestly felt that I learned a lot from working in this company. It’s rewarding to see patients come in to the clinic and hearing about how life changing their journey has been.
Rachel Byers
This experience has been such a gift. Though we couldn't afford to pay for it ourselves, a friend offered to pay so that we could help our daughter. This has been invaluable. Though it is expensive, the price is well worth what you are getting. Just hearing the results alone was so comforting and reassuring to know which direction to go in regarding treatment for our 15 yr old. The staff was so helpful and compassionate as well as incredibly knowledgable. I wish with all my heart that the medical community as a whole would start off with things like testing and brain scans instead of just medication. I feel like we have just been throwing darts at a dartboard while blindfolded. But not anymore. Now I feel like we have true direction. I would recommend this clinic to any and everybody. 100% with no reservation whatsoever.

Getting a scan helped change the trajectory of my mental health and therefore the health of all of my family and my community. Thank you Amen Clinics
comfortable and positive work space
I have been working for Amen Clinics for 7 months now, I can easily say that I've had a really positive experience here so far. Its been easy and enjoyable to represent a company when you agree with their approach and methods. Its a science based, natural and holistic clinic with a brilliant team of doctors and staff. The job requires you to talk to a series of potential patients from various backgrounds. You listen to their experiences and guide them to the best services that will help improve their situation. The management team in my department really cares about their employees and makes a constant effort to show their appreciation. The hours are great, time off request is fair, OT options available and pay is reasonable. The more work you put in, the better the out come for pay as well. I love my team and the staff remains professional. Overall I would say this is a comfortable and positive work space.
Mark Tullius
After two family members recommended the Amen Clinics, I decided to give it a shot. I couldn't be happier with my experience despite finding out what terrible shape my brain is in. The entire staff was very caring and compassionate and I really appreciate my doctors, Momaya and Plante. Emily Brownrigg did an amazing job coordinating care and Hedy helped make my HBOT sessions relaxed and enjoyable. I highly recommend.

Love the Doctors and especially the assistants. I always get what I need almost immediately, and it’s always with a friendly, courteous and professional demeanor.
The staff and faculty at Amen Clinic have been excellentWe cannot thank the staff and faculty at Amen Clinic enough for their exceptional assistance in our healing journey. The clear-cut answers and well-defined next steps provided have been an immense relief for our family. Their thorough assessments and professional recommendations have instilled in us a sense of trust and confidence. We highly recommend Amen Clinic to anyone seeking reliable and effective healthcare services. to assist in healing! Our family is extremely pleased to have the answers and next steps!All recommendations and assessments have been thorough and professional.
I had the most wonderful experience at amen! I felt very heard and understood when communicating about my struggle with medication and finding the right fit. I felt like I had been doing trial and error with other doctors for years who just kept prescribing medicine and told me I would probably need them for the rest of my life. I expressed to ************** that I didn't want to be dependent on a medication and I would like to understand what was going on and how I could best fix it. He was totally on board and explained in great detail what he noticed in my SPECT scans and what he thought could work for me. The then talked to me about my medication options and we picked one together. After a couple months, I realized the immense change in my quality of life for the better. He also created a plan to get me off of them once I find other solutions via different therapies or lifestyle changes. I couldn't be more grateful for my experience with the Amen clinic.
Elizabeth Von Schultes
Amazing clinic and staff!! Extremely satisfied!
Leslie James
I could have written this review years ago, but I felt adequate words to embrace this experience eluded me. I credit Dr. Emina at the Amen Clinic with saving my husband's life - and restoring his quality of life. A diagnostic brain SPECT scan revealed my husband has a traumatic brain injury from the age of 15 when he was hit over the head with a tire iron. He also has clinically significant tinnitus, & is deaf (sadly a cochlear implant was not effective for him). Over the course of a year Dr. Emina was able to build his brain reserve back up and slow down his cognitive decline through micro-doses of several key medications, supplements, diet geared to his specific needs and exercise. After 7 years of working with Dr. Emina we still gain helpful insights which surprise us. We are forever grateful for Dr. Emina's gracious expertise in providing this foundational gift of brain support for my husband, and Dr. Amen for his research, education, training and clinics with brain experts who have uplifted so many people's lives through the gift of improved brain-body health.
I am extremely grateful for finding the Amen Clinic, my experience has been nothing but positive. The team assigned to me was thorough, and comprehensive and showed genuine interest in me. I showed up at the Amen Clinic combating a severe case of anxiety and was reluctant to go on any medications. My SPECT Scan revealed some underlying issues that were detailed out in the final report. My scheduled phone calls and Zoom Calls all went off as scheduled. I Was evaluated and counseled along with the necessary recommendations to best treat my condition. I wrote out each and every recommendation and went to work, change in nutrition, sleep habits, exercise, nutritional supplements, removing copious amounts of coffee and sugar and grains from my diet, lost weight, I simply decided to take take 100% responsability for my mental and emotional health and the outcome has been nothing more than complete satisfaction. ********************** supplied me the necessary tools, but I understood that I needed to take control of my underlying external environmental conditions that was creating my anxiety. My final report sits on my desk I value it as a prescription, and I will review it from time to time to ensure I am dialed in. Do I have periods that I am challenged with bouts of anxiety, yes indeed, but ********************* had presented me with the proper tools in my tool box for me to live life now on my terms, no longer do I find myself with the inability to function through my day. Gratitude.
My father first came to Amen Clinics as a result of a TBI as a result of a terrible car accident. ***************** and the team at the ******* Clinic have been exceptional! As a result of this evaluation, my father was able to address other underlying issues and concerns he had been dealing with for a while. Whenever we had questions about medications/supplements the team was always pleasantly available and quick to respond. Needless to say, we have received excellent service and are extremely grateful!!!!

Dr. Storage has assisted me immensely, and I am so grateful for his knowledge and compassion. Hedy, the HBOT director at Costa Mesa clinic, is nothing short of amazing! She's caring, accommodating, knowledgeable, and comforting. Great experience thus far.
Lori Austin
Dr. Filidei has been my doctor since 2017. I have come to truly trust his judgment, opinions, and expertise. Regardless, what other doctors or medical professionals may advise, I always lean heavily and do what Dr. Filidei suggests. I am that confident in his knowledge, skill and advice! PS – thank you, Dr. Filidei ❗️

Our family has worked with Dr. Karimpour for over five years. Her professionalism, exceptional medical care and ability to navigate complex situations with compassion are exemplary. Jordan and the staff provide superior support and make it easy to navigate services.

Great service. Truly worked to my personal needs and I feel 100x better after treatment and follow ups.
Andreina Diaz
I’m grateful for my experience at the Amen Clinic. My team of doctors - Dr. Storage and Dr. Filidei - have helped me understand and prioritized my mental health. With the help of the brain scans and proper evaluations we found the right answers, to create the best set of protocols to help me find the balance I have been longing for. My brain and mental health went from a personal goal, into a complete life style change. I feel my doctors really have my back and are constantly fine tuning my treatments, making the necessary adjustments to make sure I life to my full potential.

Dr. Johnson's team, led by Jordan are amazing and highly professional. Anything from scheduling to pharmacy needs to exploration of alternative therapeutic practices. Awesome group of individuals!

Ann Curtis
I have worked with a variety of mental health professionals including psychiatrists and hold no one in higher regard than Dr. Karimpour. The use of the Amen clinic was very purposeful, the use of evidenced based assessments and testing is crucial, I think, in order to provide comprehensive care. Dr. Karimpour provides a comprehensive, integrative treatment plan that optimizes the interventions recommended. She collaborates with other non-medical treatment providers to enhance the overall treatment of care. She is very knowledgably and approaches each patient relationship with care, compassion, support and encouragement. I have recommended the services of the Amen clinic, and to request the services of Dr. Karimpour. It is rare to find a medical provider who epitomizes the true meaning of comprehensive medical care, she practices this on a daily basis, and it is a blessing to have her providing care.
Peter Gerard
I have had mental health issues since I was sixteen (fifty one years ago). It was not until I found Amen Clinic that I finally got the correct diagnosis and treatment for my condition. More words would not say it any better.

Once, once again, I called… And once again, I had a wonderful group of people help me get things done and head me in the right direction. I am so appreciative to get to work with this team.
Billy Durkin
I had a positive experience with Emily from the Amen Clinic. She listened to my story and made me feel understood.

We followed Dr. Bello from his previous practice because he was the only mental health professional that our adolescent child would be willing to engage with. We are grateful for our child's improvement and to Dr. Bello! Alyssa is very helpful and responsive. Thank you for your service!

Jordan is extremely helpful, I highly recommend her!
Mary Tamborski
Working with the Aymen clinics hasn’t been nothing short of relief for me and my family. The staff and clinicians have provided so much help, support and reassurance that we are doing all the right things.
Sherrie Buzby
Andrea B. ( the historian assigned to me) did a great job in listening and asking additional questions about my physical and mental history; seeking out any additional information that might help the doctor to provide an accurate review of my brain health. Dr. Momaya was warm, patient and felt more like a friend than a doctor. While the scans provided hard evidence about the concerns I have for my brain health, the experience with the Costa Mesa staff gave me peace of mind. I now have the steps to create a healthier brain and a better future.
Brenda M
Dr. Johnson and his team have helped me overcome many obstacles in life. My health continues to improve in all areas as I work with them. They have been accommadating during times of crises and that has been a great comfort. The brain scans have answered many of my deepest questions and I'm hopeful that I will be one of the first to try any new advances in medicine as a patient with the Amen Clinic. Many thanks, to you and your team!
Hilly Min
Amazing and knowledgeable staff and doctors, everyone is so nice and have lots of understanding for you, I am so glad I got to go to this wonderful place and it’s a miracle place that saves people lives , I am so grateful for Dr.Amen and his quality doctors and staff.
Phillip Dunn
Dr. Storage and Emily Brownrigg have been awesome working with my 5 1/2 year old daughter and me. Watching Dr. Storage speak with my little girl was a joy; he treated her like an intelligent person and not like a broken doll. My wife and I are so relieved to find him and Emily to help my daughter succeed!
Patty C
My son has been a patient of Dr. Emina's at the Amen Clinic for over 2 years. We were trying to find some answers, some help for him, we thought we had exhausted all options, when one of his doctors recommended the Amen Clinic to us. We submitted an extensive history and got started with a phone call to us by Dr. Emina. Many tests were done, some tailored to our son's needs. The staff have been great explaining the process, and scheduling Zoom meetings, and in-person meetings. With dietary changes under the guidance of an Amen Clinic Nutritionist as well as medication and supplement adjustments, (some meds being phased out completely) our son is more like himself. He is engaged in his day to day life, active socially and more like himself again. He went from a very dark place to being himself again, and we are forever grateful.
Kyle Pierce
Amen Clinics has changed the the trajectory of by mine and my son's mental health and our understanding of it. We couldn't be more complimentary of the care that we have received throughout our time with the clinic. From Lauren, our patient outcome manager, who was so thorough and responsive to Dr. Momaya and Dr. Storage who have educated us and provided us with incredible recommendations and care, along with the rest of the staff who helped us throughout our evaluation process. We are thankful.
Glenn Hodson
Dr. Johnson is genuinely interested in my well being, not just from a psychological perspective, but also my physical and spiritual health. He is a friend who happens to also be a psychiatrist.
Gerardo Coronel
Had a great follow up with Emily Brownrigg, she's been very kind and very detail oriented during all my full evaluation process.
Kurt Kemmerly
Love working with Dr Filidei!
Angela Freitas
I can’t say enough good about Dr. Emina! Autism is hard… Dr. Emina has worked with my son and our family for years. Without him, I do not know where I would be in this autism journey! Thank you for caring for all of us Dr. Emina! I really appreciate all of your efforts to help give us a more calm life!
Christian Galvan
Dr. Bello has been more than helpful as well as his assistant Alyssa! I am appreciative of their service.
Rob Kornahrens
I did my 1st spec imaging several years ago and have used Dr Filidei ever since. He is very detailed in every aspect of my care. He requests bloodwork that no one else has asked for before and we discovered a few things that I would not have known about unless he has asked for it. They are always very responsive. Strongly recommend him.
Pete Brandel
Dr Momaya was a pleasure to work with. Thorough, kind, thoughtful, on-point and not pushing pharmaceuticals. What a refreshing combination. I was referred to him by the fabulous Jennifer Crandall and have had a lot of success.
ALBERT DEBS
Dr Filidei is an amazing doctor I had a very complex diagnosis he figured it out what was the problem then he heal it was an amazing experience Dr Filidei is a life saver thank you
Maguire Kane
I have been working with Dr. Plante for a little bit over 8 months now and have been extremely happy and grateful for him & his entire staff. For the 8 months prior to meeting Dr. Plante, I had lost hope that my illness could be cured and cared for after months of clinical testing, procedures, and other work done during that time. But, he truly goes outside of your standard Doctors tool box and does everything and anything he can to support your needs on getting back to full health. I went from barely being able to get out of bed to being fully functional in my day to day life with just a short span of getting the proper care from him & his recommendations. I 100% believe in their work and cannot be happier with the care I've gotten.
Rebecca Boyle
Dr K was very warm and thorough with me. It was a very positive experience.
Vee Cee
I have had a great experience with the Amen clinic. All staff is very friendly and welcoming. I am working with Emily B., she has made me feel very comfortable and not judged when it comes to discussing my issues. I would definitely recommend this clinic.
Ill be 100% honest - it seems as though wealthy individuals send their kids here to find out why theyre stupid... this isnt that kind of place. If you were stupid to start with, Will be stupid afterwards. This place is for people that have serious issues from TBI or what have you. Although I have not been able to fully implement the treatment plan that has been given to me, due to limitations... They totally understand what is going on and are making strides to make improvements in my life. I do completely understand if you cannot afford the service it might seem like a scam but I assure you ****% that it is not.
Jake Grant
Regarding my son, my wife and I tried hospitals, mental institutions, counseling and could not get any answers to what is going on, we found Amen Clinics and got the answers we needed right away, with a brain scan and evaluation Amen Clinics pinpointed the problem area and got our son on the right track with medication, counseling and some brain vitamins. We now see our 19-year-old son returning to his normal self. He has started to work full time again, and is able to get out of the house. Amen Clinics is lowering his dosage of medication as we continue our counseling sessions. If you have not tried Amen Clinics out yet I highly recommend them...
April Gensler
So far the people at Amen Clinics have been amazing! Friendly, competent, professional, kind and caring. Looking forward to my results and plan moving forward!
Susie and Dale Nack
I will be forever grateful for Jordan K. and Dr. Karimpour. Dr. K., thank you for all of your time, you have made such a difference in my life. Jordan you have been so patient and kind with me especially when I've been beyond difficult. I am so very sorry for treating you with disrespect and for making your job 20 times harder. Thank you both for helping me, Susie
Karen Reiman
I had my 2 brain scans done and then I met on Zoom with Dr Karimpour, psychiatrist. She is so easy to talk with and easy to understand how she thinks. She is so specialized and has experience and over all my years of trying to be treated for ADD, therapy sessions where no one listens and naturopathic doctors that are great in their own expertise but not involving the brain I found a place that takes me seriously. So at age 70 I found out that I do NOT even have ADD so the Amen Clinic is amazing and now they are guiding me on what to do to improve my brain and to hopefully stop my brain from making me look like I have ADD. It is such a relief and I had been wanting this experience for more than 10 years and I finally did it and they even opened a clinic in AZ and I didn't know that so yayyy. I would HIGHLY recommend anyone struggling with anything that doesn't make sense to get your brain scanned now; don't wait till you are 70, and then you can enjoy your healthy brain for a lot longer; however, my information discovered will be great for family history for my 4 adult kids and their kids. When they all see the change in my actions, my hyperness, my forgetfulness etc they will be asking me what am I doing different and then I can pay it forward to inspire them by educating them. If you have never heard of Amen Clinics or Dr Daniel Amen, watch YouTube podcasts where he is being interviewed or check out Brain Warrior's Way podcast. Good Luck on your own journeys. Karen
Chris Kunzi
Thank you Amen Clinic for all that you do for Kathy and I and so many others ! Blessings ! The Kunzi family !
Connor Allen
Such a pleasant experience
Mike Fleming
As a patient of Dr Filidei for a couple years, I am very happy with how thorough he is. I also appreciate how dedicated he is to my overall health. It’s like going to a tire store for tires and they also check under the hood for possible problems. He also suggests natural remedies as well
Bella Bleza
Nice to be working with a group of HEALTH PROVIDERS/SUSTAINERS instead of working within the usual "Sick Care/Symptom Cover-Up/Trying to Get Back to Health Too Late" System... I love that my care is based on brain scans and recent labs. And I also love the built-in substantive Accountability Checks! Thanks Drs. Johnson and Plante and THANK YOU to everyone at the Amen Clinic, OC! <3
Nancy Holcomb
Such a wonderful experience for me! The brain scans are incredible and I very much appreciate Dr. Amen for establishing the many clinics to help people like me. All the people I dealt with at the clinic were so kind, while being highly knowledgeable and thorough. Everyone could benefit from this amazing service provided by these clinics. Watching Dr. Amen on the Jay Shetty podcast is how I came to know of him and his clinics. After watching this I knew I had to have my brain scanned and I am so impressed with his organization. It would be great if more people could benefit from this!
Benjamin Wolff
Upon reaching out to Gabriel at "Amen!" clinics, I had but one request. Could he help me recover my full evaluation and scans? I was there in 2008. Gabriel was able to track down and email me everything and was happy to help, which is refreshing! I had written Dr. Amen many letters in the early 2000's about the potential medicinal augmentation of a SNRI with dextromethorphan.(Today it is actually a FDA approved medicine, Auvility) On my final day at the clinic he made himself available but I was so hung over after watching our 44th President get elected the night before. I used to write President Obama about reparation's in the form of opportunity, a free college education with room, board, and laptop. For a plethora of reasons, the idea made "cents" I told him...
James Meacham
Dr. Love has been a tremendously helpful partner in the journey I have found myself on. Her humane, pragmatic counsel is always based on science and aimed at treating the whole person. I have achieved goals that have eluded me for a decade, so I highly recommend Dr. Love and Amen Clinics.
Nick Papageorges III
I struggle with betrayal and lack of justice in this world. A bitter divorce, tough business climates and selfish people that have no problem steeping on me and others. Off and on counseling through marriage and other stuff. I found it harder and harder to endure these injustices that make little sense to me and create so much unhealthy stress in my life. I was referred to Dr. Jennifer Love of Amen clinics. Not only am I heard, I feel understood. She cannot help me with bad people and legal systems that fail us often. But with an understanding medically of what long term heavy stress does to an Individual She was quickly able to recommend treatments that we quickly balanced and really help keep me not only calmer, but alert and clear minded. I have legal battles and professional debates I need to stay in the fight for hours at times and sometimes a day straight stress load. Other counseling cannot help when your system is over loaded as well. I am a diagnostician in my own world and to have the aid of a higher level Doctor is very comforting AND successful. Your mind has to be calm to accept full reasoning and healing. If you have been struggling in this world...counseled and not better. If you have been told to "accept things" and "move on". How about trust God and forgive for your own heath. These things are true. But if you CANNOT get away from the causes of your stress or people that keep after you...you need her help. Would you like to be heard, understood and then someone actually get the fire extinguisher and come to help?! Yeah...pretty good stuff. Also with calm clarity, my armor stays tight, I can discern useless flaming arrows vs real threads and not get upset...but focus on the important issues and let the stupid stuff not rob my attention and energy. I hope that is a very specific and powerful positive testimony for Dr. Love and the Amen clinic network. Do not stay in lifes battles alone too long = you will get taken out.
Jennifer Walker
My husband and I both have struggled with anxiety ever since we were young. We finally decided to go to the Amen Clinic in Orange County to get our brains scanned last year in hopes of finding new treatments to help. The experience full circle has been amazing and very beneficial for both of us. We are finally able to understand why our brains process things in certain ways and things we can do to help our anxiety and overall mental health from what the scans showed us. I worked with Dr. Emina and continue to do check-ins every few months with him. He is extremely informative, kind and has a great background in mental health. I recommend Amen Clinic & their supplement line BrainMD to everyone I know!
Leah Mcsweeney
I have struggled with depression and anxiety for years. I lost many years of my life trying medication that didn't work. I went to the Amen Clinic last year and felt so validated by the amazing doctors who explained my brain scan to me and made new suggestions for meds to try. I was also extremely relieved that my drug abuse as a teenager did not leave permanent damage to my brain. The Amen Clinic takes a an approach that falls between holistic and medical, we need to start looking at mental health this way. Thank you Amen Clinic!
Joseph McClendon III
At the risk of sounding arrogant. I consider myself well-versed and even highly educated in both psychology and health. Tiana has open my eyes and taught me so many new and different processes and techniques that it is still amazing. And she just keeps it coming. From the sublime to the ridiculous from the basics to the nuances. She hits the target every time.
claire kelley
The Amen group have been so Supportive. The Dallas group where they took the SPECT Scans & CostaMesa where Hedy shared support info on Hyperberic/ Chamber. The MD Supplements are helping me alot. THANKS AMEN CLINIC!!
Jason Wahler
I had such a wonderful experience. The staff and the doctors were absolutely incredible. I highly recommend them if you are struggling with mental health issues.
Zach Skow
Dr. Amen and Dr. Storage have really been there for me since the moment I walked in the door. It was difficult to receive some of the information for my scan, but the game plan is working. Dr storage has almost become a family member and I just greatly appreciate his approach, candor etc. I start my hyperbaric treatments soon and am excited to experience some progress and diminished symptoms. I would recommend everyone go through their protocol—it’s only helpful.
Jordan Younger
Such a fan of Dr. Amen -- loved getting my brain scanned with him and how much I have learned from him since then. Huge fan, he's the best!
Alexa Luria
I absolutely love Amen clinics!!!! Dr. Amen is a healer and changes lives drastically for the good every single day! He has helped me so much with my own journey to healing my brain and I will forever be grateful! The staff is so kind and professional and it’s such a beautiful space too!

Absolutely fantastic facility and even better people! Everyone should have their brain scanned.

My son had several mental health struggles arise unexpectedly. He went through repeated hospitalizations, multiple medication changes, and psychiatrists that weren’t paying attention. As they just checked boxes on a page and gave him a few brief moments of their time, he got worse and worse. We were very fortunate to find Dr. Karimpour and her assistant. Dr. Karimpour spent ample time going through my son’s medical history and family medical history, and not only was she the first to actually listen, but she also went out of her way to give my son and myself the time required to understand the situation entirely. Her assistant has been the same. She has gone above and beyond on multiple occasions fielding emails and calls with pharmacies during medication shortages, offering information when needed, and being available for urgent concerns. They remain a consistent, major support system and advocate for my son’s health.

The most amazing office , staff and doctors, they changed and my saved my life, literally. I could not thank or recommend them enough. I’d give them 100 stars if I could. Not only are they kind, they are empathetic towards whatever you are going through and knowledgeable on how to make you better. They allow you to communicate with them as much as you need. I’ve never felt in safer hands. Thank you amen clinic& Dr.bello. Additional thanks to Dr plante, I literally don’t know what I would do without you, you are the greatest physician I have ever had the pleasure of working with and I thank you for not only your wisdom and knowledge, but for your empathy and motivational words as well. You sir, are the best of the best. Special shout out to Litzy for dealing with my chaos. You guys are rockstars

Michael Walker
Brian Plante, ND, you, sir, are awesome!! I mean that sincerely, in every way! Your insightful and intuitive nature, your calm demeanor, your caring and empathic approach, your ability to connect with my daughter and to skillfully communicate so openly and honestly are all truly inspiring. And of course, your tremendous grip on the many and varied treatment options, both mainstream medicine and otherwise, is impressive! We are truly blessed to have you leading her care. Thank you!!!

Went to the DC area clinic. Brilliant analysis of my mental health and state of my brain after 2 scans. The psychiatrist spent 45 minutes telling me everything I had experienced for years just from my scans alone. We had never met. And the plan going forward was easy to understand and outlined perfectly. After 17 years of failed treatment and dozens of professionals guessing as to what was happening in my brain the scans eliminated the what ifs and showed what was happening and why. My advice is to skip the guesswork and get a scan to know the real reasons behind the problems.

Amen Clinic gave us hope when we were hopeless. Thank you, Amen Clinic, Dr Emina, & Dr Chapek for playing a significant role in saving my husband’s life shortly after a freak injury, especially when other doctors had no idea how to help my husband. The work they do is creative, revolutionary, life-changing. Hubby’s doc, Dr. Emina, is a rock star. He’s sharp, responsive, informative, candid, and genuinely caring. I’m exceedingly grateful for his keen analytical skills, without which my hubby would still be languishing in bed. SPECT scan was incredibly validating, clearly directing Dr Emina’s treatment prescriptions. He gave us a healing plan which gave us hope when we were hopeless & confused re: next steps. We also benefited tremendously from Dr Emina’s collaboration with Bellevue Amen Clinic Dr Chapek — resulting in a dynamic duo providing extraordinary care and support for my husband. Hubby and I found staff to be helpful, friendly, and responsive. Atmosphere is comfortable, peaceful, welcoming: tea, water, comfy seating areas, clean restrooms, informative wall decor. Nearly three years after our first appointment, we are confident that Dr Emina and Amen Clinic played a vital role in saving my husband’s life despite hubby’s extraordinary injury that baffled other medical professionals.

I would like to honor Dr. Daniel Emina, psychiatrist with the Amen Clinic, for the excellent care that he has given to my son who was suicidal and suffered from low thyroid and low energy. He no longer is suicidal and is now able to attend school and have some contentment in his life. You truly are a life saver. Kindly, Nancy NK

They were very good at helping a nervous dad (me) make my special needs child feel safe and welcome for the SPECT brain scan process. They are very dedicated in their work to bring hope and healing to people.
Yes. I went to their Manhattan office. I was treated with the utmost respect and professionalism. I did 2 SPECT (brain) scans and a psychological test. I am waiting to hear my results. Most encouraging is the out-of-the-box thinking to get me to where my brain will function optimally and hence the rest of my life. Yes, I will recommend Amen Clinics. I have an appointment for a very detailed medical and life history coming up, to culminate in the final detailed analysis of what is going on for me and, based upon their years of experience, how I can correct the problems/symptoms I have been experiencing once and for all! Wish me luck!
Charlton Bilow
Dr. Daniel Amen and his wife RN Tana Amen are very intelligent, funny, and great teachers. I highly recommend their books and courses. I have learned much from them and gained motivation from their teachings. I am currently part of their Brain Warrior's Way course wich is giving me new insights and focus on being the best, healthiest, smartest person I can be.

I felt that I was in good hands with the staff and clinicians at the Amen Clinic. The process for the initial evaluation was clear and thorough, explained to me well, and delivered results that I feel will be helpful to my overall good health. I would recommend the Amen Clinic to anyone who is interested in delving deeper into recovery from brain related issues.
Hattie Frederiksen
Overall I was very happy with the care I received. The people were genuine and caring but also knew their field well and provided me with helpful accurate information. My one complaint is that there was a miscommunication regarding one of my appointments. I was scheduled for a web test at the clinic but it was also emailed to me to do at home. I did it at home then arrived at the clinic to find that I had already done it and didn't need to be there for that appointment. I live about two hours away and had risen early to make it there in time for my appointment so I was frustrated that I now had to kill time till my next appointment that day. All that said I felt the care I receive was worth the extra hassle and would recommend the clinic to anyone looking for psychological help.

Amazing

The Amen Clinic in Costa Mesa, California has served our family for the past 4 years. One of us suffers from a brain disorder and the Amen Clinic has helped not only "the patient", but also the rest of the family by providing customized/situational care. Dr. Love (Farrell) is a wonderful, caring doctor who has seen us through many ups and downs of a medical condition, and continues to investigate (and try) new approaches in treatment.
nicole yragui
Amazing staff. Treated very well by everyone. Got lots of much needed answers. Top notch technology.
Roxie Saffari
Brain scans offer a very interesting and in depth visualization of the problems that can arrise structurally in our brains. Dr. Faber and the rest of the doctors at Amen use these scans to appropriately offer customized medications and recommendations for recovery.
Laurie Rudolph
Everyone was helpful, patient, and friendly. With the brain scans and Dr. Momaya's in-depth explanation I was finally able to understand why I have suffered depression and over-eating for years. Now I can begin to heal my brain and change my life!!
My family and I have visited many very good therapists and excellent psychiatrists over the years to deal with husband's PTSD, my ADHD and resulting depression, and one son's ADHD and resulting oppositional behavior. The Amen clinic and the Spect scans along with all the other supporting therapy and testing that goes into the final report has been the most cost effective and truly helpful package that we have received. The information we received has helped our family to help ourselves.
Robbie Clarke
The staff and doctors were amazing. I have never been treated with as much care and concern at any doctors office, like I have been treated here. Hands down the best, most caring and amazing staff available, work here at the Amen clinic. They have truly set the bar. I walk away today with answers that I couldn't get from over twenty doctors and seven plus years and a huge abundance of tests couldn't find a single answer for

The people at this facility were kind, caring, and well educated. In my situation more needs to be done with research education of Mold toxicity poisoning as a whole in the Medical world. However of all facilities these people would be my recommended choice to know what your brain is doing as a way to start your next step to recovery. I trust they will become more advanced with mold toxicity poisoning and hopefully my brain SPECTS can help with their future discoveries.
Orlando Vargas
This is a great company full of great professionals who are passionate about helping individuals. The facilities are state of the art and well kept. I highly recommend the Amen clinics.

Great place to really find out how the brain works and what treatment will help that person to be a better human being
I went to the Amen Clinic in Atlanta last November and had Spect scans done of my brain. I have to say it was a turning point in my life getting the results, feedback, and guidance on how best to move forward with not only my treatment and supplements but also the education into why I was feeling the way was. 5 star ? experience and 2 thumbs ? Up!
I was and am impressed with Amen clinic. They did testing and spect scans of my brain. They helped me to recognize what needed attention through their evaluation, recommendations, and suggestions. I implemented them and it has been life changing. They look at brain systems not just mental health systems. They provide what people need to know and do, to get better. A method that should be adopted by all of psychiatry.
Interesting reading the feedback here because my experience was completely different. I learned about this clinic via a family member and their process was much different approach than previous "professionals" I've been to. I didn't feel judged at all and I finally had a better idea of the issues I've dealt with and still was dealing with. They didn't just want put me on a bunch of pharmaceuticals and I didn't really understand why, they broke down their assessments of me and they recommended one along with some natural supplements specific to my situation. If I had it to do over again, I definitely would
My husband paid $4,000 for a three visit therapy, a few hours each visit,for our daughter who is chronically depressed. We were not impressed by the care given to her. Apart from her brain scan, they did little to help her. We paid to fly her out to Los Angeles where she stayed for the days required for her treatment. For the almost $5,000 we spent, I think it would have been better if she had received regular, traditional visits to a psychiatrist. She still suffers and as far as I know, there was no follow-up. In short, we were not satisfied with the ‘care’ they gave her. One thing, they were swift to suck that money out of our account, days before her visit. All in all, my daughter was not helped by Amen Clinic and we wished we had gone another route!
I don’t say this lightly: Amen Clinic saved my husband’s life. Well worth it to have my husband’s toxic brain injury validated through the SPECT scan. My husband suffered from chronic toxic exposure that no local professional knew how to treat. Amen Clinic Dr Emina and Bellevue-based Dr Chapek teamed up to provide treatments with supplement support that noticeably helped hubby feel better *immediately.It’s rare to have such highly capable, competent doctors who are humble and who take the time to listen and give clear explanations + superb treatment. Hubby is a compliant patient, follows Dr’s orders, and has his follow-up appointments. Dr Emina speaks in easy-to-understand terms, using analogies to help us understand the importance of compliance. Dr Chapek asks incisive questions and has done an amazing job providing an effective and powerful detox regimen. We will be returning for hubby’s follow-up scan. Thank you, Dr Amen, for your courage to choose the road less traveled, despite the unfounded arrogant and ignorant criticism. Even Jesus had and still has his critics?
I really dont understand the negative reviews about AMEN clinic I have been with AMEN clinic in Manhattan for three years Dr *** and his secretary are completely amazing the whole place is amazing the opportunity to have herbs instead of medication the way they cut cost to make sure you dont pay too much the testing that they do they are completely amazing and a godsend I do not understand the negative reviews they do not deserve any of these at all because they are truly amazing I suffer from brain damage complex post traumatic stress disorder DID hypervigilance. And if it wasnt for them helping me I would be truly lost I praise God every day that I have them in my life that I can call them anytime day or night and they will always answer the phone Dr *** is my guardian *** and people should leave a great review because if it wasnt for this company. If it wasnt for Dr *** I dont know what I would do . Maybe people that dont have problems dont appreciate every single thing they do but Im telling you right now theyre amazingI would be totally lost and I am finally getting my sanity back because of them kind regards
