I ABSOLUTELY ADORE DR. LOWE. i HAVE BEEN SEEING HIM FOR 12 YEARS AND WOULDN'T DREAM OF GOING TO ANYONE ELSE!
Daniel Drachman
I have been a patient of Dr. Lowe for close to 10 years. He has always treated me with the best care and found the best ways to treat me. He is truly exceptional and I would recommend him and the Amen clinic 100% of the time. Dr. Lowe is one of the best in his fields.
Donna Ritchie
I suffered for 7 years and doctors around my home kept misdiagnosing me. The meds they had me on were only making matters worse. I had become very suicidal. Since the Amen clinic in two short months I was feeling like my old self. I’m mental strong. Thank you for saving my life.
Alison Givner
We have had a very positive experience with the clinic. All the doctors and staff were extremely helpful and spot on with their evaluation , diagnosis and recommendations for treatment.
Justine Fisher
My experience with the Amen Clinics has been incredibly positive! Everyone has been super nice and welcoming! From front desk staff to patient intake and the doctors. I met with Joelmy who has been super sweet throughout the process and Dr. Romanelli who has been very nice! Very kind doctor and took time to go over diagnoses, my SPECT scans, and next steps as well as addressing any questions I had. Wonderful experience so far, I am extremely grateful for the Amen Clinics!! Very worth it! It is such a relief to have the answers I have been seeking for so long and to know that there is a positive road forward!

The Dr's and staff are very friendly and professional. Dr Lowe is super knowledgeable.
Dan Parry
The level of care received has been amazing! It is a unique experience to have your doctor actually care about the patient's well-being. The communication and follow up of Dr. Romanelli and his staff has been wonderful. Most importantly, the change in treatment plan they initiated is providing life-changing results for my son. I enthusiastically endorse Dr. Romanelli, and Amen Clinics for their compassionate care and concern with our family. Update: Dr. Romanelli and the Amen staff continue their wonderful care for my son who has been stabilized and is thriving in life once again! I can't say enough about the amazing team at Amen Clinics!

Absolutely The best .. I had a full brain scan that told me about a damaged section/lobe that I would have never known...I suspected for many years since childhood that there was an issue dr Rebecca was by far the most thorough I could ask for. Aside from being expensive they are great ...

I have been a patient of Dr. Lowe for over 10 years and I trust him fully. He is truly exceptional. He is very knowledgeable in his field and has such a kind, caring way with his patients. His approach is always personalized, and I feel confident knowing he’s committed to finding the best treatment for me. The staff is always friendly, and the clinic stays on top of the latest treatments. I’m deeply grateful for all they’ve done for me.

This place changed my life after 20 years of what seemed like going around in a destructive circle that I, nor anyone else could get me out of. If you come here, humble yourself, do what they tell you to do, your life will forever be changed for the better. It's expensive yes but cheaper than someone's life. I stand by this place 1000000000000000000% Do what you have to and come here if you're thinking about it. You've already found your answer.
Holly Hollandsworth
The entire staff at Amen Clinics has been nothing short of amazing! Always responsive, kind and truly cares. 💗 Dr. Gera was so helpful in explaining things but also giving us practical solutions and help. They take time to truly help and we are forever grateful!
Jonathan Ford
All the staff has been amazing and went above and beyond. They were understanding and welcoming. They use clear, kind, and highly professional communication. The treatment plan exceeded expectations and provided everything I needed to become a healthier version of myself after a lifetime of hurting and struggling. The care and support was outstanding. The entire staff exemplifies higher purpose. This isn't just their job, it is their purpose. Thank you Amen Clinics of New York <3

Dr Dobroshi and her team have helped me better understand my body. Highly recommend the Amen Clinic total brain assessment. It has been an invaluable tool for me.
Lorie Pearsall
I found Amen Clinics to be very helpful!! I have worked with both the Washington DC clinic and the NYC clinic. They are very responsive to needs and requests. After only 3 months I am already seeing positive results.
Natasha Millikan
Amen clinic is wonderful. I was very pleased with my first visits. I also like that we are setting things in place to make my body respond best to treatments before we start. And they are there for my questions. I was a little bummed that instead of me giving my history to my doctor, I gave it to someone who gave it to him. That did create some inaccuracies which probably didn’t matter but still was a little frustrating. But overall still five stars.

Great team and Great care. They are the best!
Martha Zhan
Dr. Romanelli is one of the best doctors my son ever had, he is compassionate and knowledgeable. We would not hesitate to continue to seek his care. Though we are still working through reimbursement issues with our insurance company which has been a huge challenge to get to the bottom of due to the question whether the clinic / doctor is in network or not. We are working with and hoping management can help us to clear that up so we can get some refunds back from our insurance company.
bernur ersoy
Outstanding care at Amen Clinic We recently sought help for our son at Amen Clinic and I cannot express enough how grateful we are for the exceptional care and support he received. From the moment we arrived, the entire staff went above and beyond to make our son feel comfortable and at ease, which is incredibly important when dealing with anxiety issues. The clinic's specialization in mental illnesses and brain scans provided us with invaluable insights into our son's condition. They took the time to explain each step of the process to both us and our son, ensuring we all felt informed and reassured. The Spect scan services were particularly impressive, the results were explained in detail, and both our coordinator Joelmy and Dr Dhawan was always available to answer any questions we had, which greatly eased our concerns. We are incredibly thankful for the support and care our son received at Amen Clinic. If you are seeking help for a loved one struggling with mental health issues, I wholeheartedly recommend this clinic. Their expertise, empathy, and state-of-the-art facilities make them an exceptional choice for anyone in need of mental health services. Thank you Amen clinic for making such a positive impact on our son's life.
John Dowd
Highly recommend, wish I knew about Amen Clinics years ago. Would have saved a lot of time and aggravation going the typical route. It seems costly at first, but in the long run it is worth it compared to other options.
Lauren Jones
I had the pleasure of meeting with Dr. Gera! We went over all of the tests conducted and she did not rush the process. All the tests were analyzed very thoroughly and she gave me an opportunity to ask any questions I had. After going over the results, I received a treatment plan that we both agreed to and she respected my wishes to take a holistic approach. Thank you!
Alice Ryan
The Amen clinic staff treated me with respect and care. Everyone I dealt with was very kind. All of the information I was provided with has given me the ability to address positive changes I can make to my health and I can thank the Amen clinic for that.
Gabriella Labuda
Dr. Anderson and all of the staff (including Joelmy - our care coordinator) at The Scottsdale Amen Clinic was fantastic! Super welcoming and attentive to our needs. We felt very supported and had a thorough intake assessment and a comprehensive care plan for our daughter who has dyslexia and adhd. We so appreciate the care of taking our daughters holistic wellbeing in mind. We are already seeing great results in our daughter and we are confident that things will continue to improve.
Kim Richardson
Wonderful experience with the Amen Clinic! Dr. Lowe is brilliant. His knowledge of the inner workings of the brain is exceptional. The office is so responsive and Taina, his Patient Care Coordinator is amazing!

The information given was very useful, clear, thoughtful, and to the point. I would highly recomend the Amen Clinic.
Tammy Buckus
Premiere mental wellness check point. If experiencing any feelings of severe fear or aloneness definitely call 911. If you have $6000 and want your perspective to be vetted, also an option.
Cristina Carpenter
This place is amazing in their targeted approach to mental health care. I just started my treatment plan but am so impressed by how thorough and detailed the evaluations are. They truly create a custom plan for YOUR brain. No more guessing games with one size fits all medications. No other psychiatrist can say that and I'm so grateful for the opportunity to meet with them 🙏
Randy Jensen
Amazing staff ! Warm, welcoming ,friendly. Peaceful pleasant atmosphere Extremely kind people that are in the right position for this company. I thank you very much for helping me on my journey to finding better mental health
Tammy Thompson
All around everything and everyone was greats thank you for helping me get to a better me.
Christy Richardson
Our experience at every touch point with Amen Clinic was so wonderful! I am so thankful for them helping my son work on his brain health!
Ken M
I wasn’t sure what to expect when I made my appointment. Honestly, I was in denial of many aspects of my life history. My latest iterations of life with retirement, marriage separation after 40 years, and my own sense of ”something isn’t right” led me to investigate the Amen clinic when I first became aware of it reading “ Breaking the habit of bring yourself: how to lose your mind and create a new one.” I am so glad I have allowed myself this journey to what I have to hope will be the next positive change in my life and navigating it as well as possible. Deep gratitude to Amen clinic and all staff. 🙏
Rhea White
Dr. Grin was genuine in wanting to help me overcome my condition and humble in sharing his own journey with me.
Brigette Walton
Dr Gera has been such an amazing help for me!!!
Tom Lee
Everyone shud get a Spect scan. I believe it is not just for the compromised. It helped me understand so many things and connected me with great resources. Dr Siegel is one of those resources who has and continues to be part of my healing journey. Thank you Dr Siegel.
Richard Venezio
Amen Clinic was great. I wasn't certain who or how my medical issues were going to be handled. The team at Amen in NY were amazing. (Knowledgeable, Friendly, On time, etc.).
Peter Zeras
Amazing experience with Taina and Dr Lowe. Very responsive communication, and consultation was interesting and informative. I highly recommend!
Golden Moeras
I know I am seen and understood by Dr. Siegel. Having the brain scans was priceless. I learned that my intelligence was high, especially my emotional intelligence. For the first time in my life I no longer feel defective. My life is organized and I am in the driver’s seat. Thank you LA team, Siegel and Daniel!
Raul Orozco
I cannot express in words how much I recommend Amen Clinics and how grateful I am for the opportunity to work with them. Dr. Romanelli in particular has been of immense help and support. His attention to detail, compassionate approach to working with clients, and immaculate professionalism are far and above what is expected of even the best doctors. A huge thank you to Amen Clinics!
Eunji Kim
Dr. Grin and Jasmine, are impossible not to like, great team and scheduling availability and very resourceful. Have been going to their offices via zoom and in person for almost two years now and my mental health has never been better. 10/10. Highly recommend.
Lenny Morgan
Amen clinics provided excellent service from the beginning of the inquiry call to the end of the consultations. They worked with me, staff was very understanding and supportive. The Dr. was knowledgeable and provided clear explanations of the diagnostic and treatment. Will highly recommend!
Talia Plaut
The staff at Amen Clinics really took the time to gather all information needed to help treat me. My doctor, Dr. Lowe, is very knowledgable and created a comprehensive treatment plan for me. After starting the recommended supplements by Dr. Lowe, I immediately started feeling better!! The staff has been really great in following up with me and supporting me to make sure I feel well. I'm so grateful for Amen Clinics!
Denise Jacques
It was great! I am very confident in your services.

Dr Siegel and her team put a lot of time and care into taking care of my son. Thank you to Dr S and Kirsia and Amen Clinics
M D B
I can’t say enough about AMEN clinics. They’re completely amazing. They do all of the test and studies so they can understand things better and then my doctor personally.Dr Grin Is amazing. He’s been my doctor for years and every single day. I learned new techniques to help me do with things I feel so positive now I’m happy to be alive. I can’t say enough about them, but if you’re suffering through any kind of issues and you want professional, perfect, and caring help, this is where you need to be. This is where you need to go. . …. Trust me, it feels good to be able to take a deep breath and be happy about taking a deep breath. They are truly amazing and caring..
Stephanie Isaac
Dr. Gera is absolutely wonderful. I started working with her during a very traumatic time in my life and she has been an immense help.
Lewis Coughlin
I had a very positive experience with the Amen Clinic in New York in May 2024. The testing and scans conducted at the clinic and subsequent medical services received by the various specialists involved were of high quality and contributed to my health and well-being.
Michael Shaich
I have been going to the Amen clinics for about 2 years. I started with a brain scan that although expensive was used in conjunction with other testing to help explain my condition. I worked with Dr. Siegle who used a holistic approach to help treat it including meds, supplements, diet etc. In addition to Dr. Siegle, I want to give a special shoutout to her assistant Kirsia who is incredibly responsive and gets back to me within 24 hours to ensure meds are filled promptly as sometimes I need a quick refill. Thank you Dr. Siegle and Kirsia!
Mark Snider
Dr. Gera has changed our sons life, and in doing so has changed our family’s life in the most profoundly wonderful way. Her expertise in diagnosing our son and her expertise in prescribing the appropriate medication and vitamin therapy has been nothing short of transformative. Our family owes a great debt of gratitude to Dr. Gera and the Amen Clinic.
Josh Feldstein
Dr. Gera is a caring, smart, insightful and diligent provider. Highly recommended!
George Slefo
Dr. Lowe and his staff are truly incredible. They are kind, caring, and most importantly, helpful.
Patricia Wenzel
The doctor was very knowledgeable but also was an excellent communicator. He explained, in an understandable way, the results of testing and he demonstrated respect for me, making me very comfortable to ask questions.
David Rose
From reception, intake, scans and Doctor review: Everything was patiently and thoroughly explained. I felt seen and heard. My anxiety and apprehension was eased each step of the way. Thank you All.

Thank Dr. Daniel Amen!
Courtney Butcher
Dr. Gera has been such an amazing psychiatrist ever since the first time we talked after my brain spect. She is very knowledgeable and understanding. I believe she’s one of the best. She is always available to me if I need anything urgent she even made an appointment to talk to me when I was having a really rough time and my therapist was on vacation. She is really on my side and helps me get through things. She never has a problem reaching out to my other doctors if needed, even getting in touch with my jaw surgeon and having a phone conversation with her. They both praised each other as well! I’m so happy to have Dr. Gera as my psychiatrist. I always feel comfortable and safe in her care. She has even went out of her way to research things for me. Her knowledge and expertise is remarkable. It’s refreshing to have a doctor who can listen to you and trust what I’m saying and help me fix the root issues and not just put a band aid over it. It took me so long to write this review because I wanted it to be perfect because she doesn’t deserve anything less.
Ted Francavilla
It was very revealing to see images of your own brain and the consultation with the doctor was so thorough and informative. This has given me strong motivation to address potential issues early and keep my brain as healthy as possible.
Jennifer Bartley
We were fortunate to find Dr. Sonia Gera through Amen Clinics. She puts so much thought and effort into getting the best results for my child. Dr. Gera is always so thorough, and continuously reviews the various tests we have on file (genetic tests, scans, bloodwork) in order to determine the best treatment as my child grows and changes. She listens to me as the mother, values my opinions, and keeps in touch with me by email between appointments. Dr. Gera is trustworthy, kind, and handles difficult situations with positivity and hope. We have been working with Dr. Gera for two years, and my family is in a much better and brighter place now because of her.
Paweł Piekarski
Worth every penny! The staff at the clinic is friendly, helpful and professional. Dr. Romanelli is very detail-oriented, helpful, proactive and available, his assistant as well. My experience was and is great - a new diagnosis and the treatment (including a vast amount of helpful information and literature) helped me change my life.
melissa calman
Dr. Gera is a God sent! She has helped my son tremendously! I love the fact that she believes in holistic remedies, and doesn't rely just on medication. Dr. Gera is compassionate, empathetic, knowledgeable and very humble. I would recommend her without hesitation!
Anne Matechi
My Nephew has been seen Dr. Sood for the past 3.5, and what a difference we have seen in his Life. After searching for so long finally we got the answer of what was wrong. We went to so many psychiatrists and changed medication almost after every 6 months for more than 4 years until we were referred to Amen with one of my friend. After Brain scanning Dr. Sood explained to us what was going on and we realized all this time they were treating something that was not there. He was very thorough and patient with my nephew. He explained everything to us and appropriate route to take. He changed Him medication and included brain vitamins which has helped him a lot. My nephew never liked to talk to doctors before but since he meet Dr. Sood he is so free with him. I want also to thank his assistant for always be prompt in everything when it comes to questions and appointments. Thank you for all that you do Amen Clinic team- you are giving so many families their love ones back
Jodi Isaacson
My experience with the Amen Clinic in New York was nothing short of transformative. During my visit, I received comprehensive scans and consultations over four days and was treated with utmost care. I was particularly inspired by the expertise of Dr. Grin, who not only effectively explained my scans and medical history but also suggested positive steps I could take to improve my brain health, instilling in me a sense of hope and optimism for my future health journey. I had a wonderful experience at the Amen Clinic in New York. I received scans and consultations during my four-day visit and was treated well. I was particularly impressed with Dr. Grin's expertise. Not only did he effectively explain my scans and medical history, but he also suggested positive steps I could take to improve my brain health. While I initially encountered some communication issues with the clinic, I was pleasantly surprised by the swift and effective resolution of these concerns in my recent interaction with Dr. Grin. This experience not only reassured me of the clinic's commitment to patient care but also put me on the right track for the needed services. I wholeheartedly recommend Amen Clinics to anyone seeking answers about their health and well-being, confident in their dedication to providing the best care possible.
Dawn Ferrari
Dr Sood is top notch. After being an RN for 35 years, with 20 of those being in behavioral health, I was fearful of going on psychiatric medication again. I felt many patients were being either over prescribed or not on the type of medication that was best for them. However, Dr. Sood really listened to me, and supported me with such a well rounded plan of care. He gave me many options, including regular medications, natural supplements, and many different ideas on ways to treat my obsessiveness and anxiety. I felt very safe with him and confident that I was receiving the highest level, most natural treatment for my issues. He is extremely knowledgable, perceptive, and kind. His patient care coordinator Fadyah Kayal was very pleasant to work with and efficient.

We have been working with Amen Clinics for over a year for both of our daughters and have found it to be an incredibly insightful and supportive process. The evaluation/intake process is extensive and thorough. The ongoing treatment and support is key. They really stay with you once you are given your treatment plan with several follow up appointments and one on one care. I don't feel rushed and appreciate that I can ask as many questions as needed. I also like that they approach the patient from a holistic point of view taking into consideration all the aspects of ones life and try to address any health issues naturally before they might prescribe medication. We have been working with Dr. Romanelli and have been having a very positive experience with him. He is generous and thoughtful. As a parent, I also appreciate his sound advice complete with additional resources like articles and books for reference. I highly recommend him and Amen Clinic.
Ana Maria Enriquez
I cannot express enough how incredible the Amen Clinic in NYC was and has been with us. My son has ADD, diagnosed only two years ago, he is 20 y/o. Unfortunately he was using a stimulant prescribed by a non holistic psychiatrist which, for his type of ADD, was causing too many side effects. The medicine was exacerbating his symptoms. Meeting Dr. Grin at Amen was life changing and proposed an alternative treatment, holistic, encompassing life style changes from nutrition, to healing treatments, hypnosis, meditation, and a huge array of supplements for brain health. Understanding how the brain operates and what really is going on was again, life changing for my son, and for me the mother and his father. The support and help provided was almost immediate, caring, compassionate, efficient, effective. We are still in the midst of trying the Amen Clinic proposed treatment and already I see huge improvements. Above all, the sense of relief and peace that we finally experience as a family, particularly my son means the world to us. Thank you to all the staff at Amen Clinics, particularly to Dr. Grin.
Robert Ellson
I am very pleased with the quick response to all of my requests for information. It is a pleasure to work with the Amen team.

IF I COULD GIVE 100 STARS I WOULD !!!! ** Once or maybe twice in a lifetime could anyone be blessed enough to come to World Class facility that compares to the Amen Clinic. From the moment I was warmly and professionally greeted by Joshua M. I knew I was somewhere special. He helped me along as it is difficult to follow directions with a Traumatic Brain injury and he did not miss a beat and always kept the patience of a Saint. I then met Dr Zana Debroshi that came up with a safe & effective treatment plan for my particular issues. My concerns and challenges were addressed professionally with the care and concern at all times. From scheduling to treatment any difficulty found Joshua there to make it go away and make it a distant memory. There is not enough space to give a case by case compliment but I will say I highly recommend the Amen clinic for anything to do with brain related issues. Sincerely, Lambros Vassiliou
Sawyer Gray
The staff at the NYC Amen clinic were all very kind and personable. The process was fast and painless !
Micah
Amazing healthcare service. I wish I was referred sooner. If you have any inclination to try it, please go.
Parenting For The Future
The Amen Clinic is simply amazing. Visually appreciating how various conditions impact the brain and working with the clinic's empathetic, expert care team was a life-changing, life-saving experience.
Sharon Gardiner
I found my way to Amen Clinic (NYC) after acquiring a brain injury from being hit by a car. This happened in Vermont where there is a scarcity of expertise in evaluating or treating brain injury. After months of futile effort to get help other than making it on to the 1-2 year waiting list at the state's one facility, I went to Amen Clinic who made it easy to get fully evaluated, diagnosed and provided with a comprehensive treatment plan. The care, support and expertise I received from the doctors and staff at Amen was a blessing. My only regret is that I didn't seek them out immediately. In my opinion, they are the best and maybe the only option for someone with an acquired brain injury.
John Folan
Dr Romanelli an his staff were amazing. The brain spect reveled what I suspected, and the Dr gave me a clear therapy paln and diagnoses. I high recommend Amen clincs and Dr Romanelli and team.
Pramod Tiruwal Bishwokarma
Amen clinic saved me from some dark place. My mental health has been much healthier and better after visiting this clinic. I have been following Dr. Amen for a few years. That’s why I went to this clinic in Manhattan having that faith that my mental health will be improved. And after visiting, yes, it’s improving tremendously. The only thing, I am little disappointed is the cost. It’s little pricey. I know, all the staffs have to be paid, but it’s still little pricey. I strongly believe that many people in US who are struggling mentally have avoided medical help because they could not afford the cost. I hope, this will be considered by the authority, of not only this clinic, but by the country too!!
yesmin hasan
We recently visited New York Amen Clinic and we had great experiences. My son was so nervous about getting an IV to do his SPECT scan and he wasn’t sitting but Crystal made it happen. She was so kind, patient and didn’t give up. She was fabulous; I wish all the pediatrician’s places had a person like Crystal who is very understandable and patient. All the NY Amen Clinic staff were welcoming too.
Kailie Kline
Dr. Dobroshi: Exceptional Psychiatric Care Dr. Dobroshi is a game-changer in psychiatric care. Her personalized, holistic approach creates a foundation of trust, making every individual feel heard, understood, and valued. A nod to Joshua, her assistant—his dedication and efficiency are the perfect complement, enhancing every aspect of the patient experience. What sets Dr. Dobroshi apart is not just her medical expertise, but her radiant positivity and unwavering commitment. She empowers individuals with the tools and guidance to reshape their lives and reach new heights. In conclusion, if you're seeking a psychiatrist who brings unparalleled knowledge, compassion, and transformative care to the table, look no further than Dr. Dobroshi. She doesn’t just meet expectations; she surpasses them. Highly recommended!
Maria Ortiz
Dr. Romanelli, from the New York Amen Clinic, has literally saved my daughter's life! She has suffered from tremendous trauma, was hospitalized with psychosis as a result, and he was able to sort through the mess of medications that the hospital had her on(they over-drugged her to the gills), and slowly, carefully, wean her off three meds, and onto just one. I have never seen my daughter so happy and healthy, and it is all because of the Amen Clinic. The SPECT imaging and other testing that was done in the beginning was invaluable, giving us insight into what was going on and how to treat her. Worth EVERY penny. Most importantly, Dr. Romanelli is very intuitive, and a great listener. During the medication changes, he kept in touch with us and was also very easy to reach if there was a glitch, unlike doctors or other "providers" in the past who were nowhere to be found during a crisis. Dr. Romanelli is truly a Godsend. If only there were more psychiatrists out there just like him, the world would be a better place. Like any medical practice, there will be naysayers who leave bad reviews because they didn't find the quick fix they were hoping for-let me say that when dealing with brain health, as with any type of illness physical or mental, there is NO such thing as a quick fix. You have to be willing to do the work, make positive life changes, in order to achieve any kind of wellness. The Amen clinic has the knowledge and resources to help you become the best that you can be.
Suzanne Moyer
My 9 year old was so nervous about getting an IV to do his SPECT scan, but the team was wonderful. Office staff were kind and welcoming and Crystal was fabulous- my son said he didn’t even feel the IV. He was happy to come back and do the second IV the next day. Still waiting for the results of the testing, but overall the experience with the office was excellent!!
Veronica V
Jordanne is the best there is. She is better than any psychologist or psychiatrist I have met in my entire 20 years of dealing with medical professionals. She is my intake person and the case manager at Amen. Jordanne has a special skill of asking the right questions and truly, genuinely being concerned about my well being as a patient. She is very to the point, clear in communication. She has helped me with many basic things I have been struggling with in just a 30 minute conversation. Amen Clinics Jordanne is an invaluable asset to your team.
Scott Orourke
I highly recommend Karen Mayo, hypnotherapist and integrative nutritionist. She helped me quit smoking. It's been six months and I have no cravings at all. I have more energy and I feel healthier. She's very knowledgeable and I'm sure she will be able to help you too. Thanks Karen Mayo!!
Betty Boop
We had an appointment at Amen Clinics in NY. Our child was so over-the-top anxious because of the needle. This lovely lady (Amanda) was so professional, so calm and really kept her cool and walked our child through it. I highly recommend this clinic. The staff is professional and we were lucky to get someone so patient like Amanda. Thank you, from Montreal!
Elle Baez
I was referred to the Amen Clinic and was somewhat skeptical. Due to a series of negative experiences, my belief in psychiatry had expired. However, after giving it a chance, I was beyond surprised and I could not be happier. Their brain-based approach truly goes beyond traditional psychiatry. Not only has my mental health improved, I feel heard, and can now better understand myself. I didn’t realize the inadequacy of my previous psychiatrists until I had the privilege of working with Dr. Siegel. Her comprehensive approach to caring for and evaluating her patients exceeds expectations. The degree of her professionalism is paramount, and her kind and fun personality make her even more unique. Her intelligence is unquestionable, and she is a role model for those within her field. Further, the Amen Clinic in general is superior in its staffing. They are so prompt for refilling prescriptions that I get my medications the same day I email a request for them. Additionally, their standards for punctual assistance are invaluable. When I went on vacation and didn’t pack enough of my medication (we can’t always predict when our flights will get canceled) I was astonished by the responsiveness of Dr. Siegel’s lovely assistant Kirsia. She helped me immediately, and even though Dr. Siegel was out of the office, I was called by the covering physician. I was shocked that I was able to, again, pick up my medications that same day. I couldn’t say enough good things about the Amen Clinic, nor could I recommend it more highly to any that are suffering in regards to their mental health.
Yvonne R
Excellent experience overall - wonderful and efficient scheduling and insightful, thorough and caring doctor
Nutritionist Karen Mayo is the best! She provides helpful, actionable ideas and the background so you know why a food or supplement is worthwhile. Karen is also a great coach and a good listener. She tailors her ideas to each person's individual needs by asking great questions. If you have the opportunity to work with her you will be blessed.
Jamie Friedman
Dr. Siegel is absolutely amazing so appreciative of all her help! 100% recommend
Brittany Hernandez
The staff at Amen is phenomenal. My sincerest thanks to Alexis for being kind, compassionate, patient and extremely understanding

Dr. Siegel has been wonderful with my son who has been struggling with his ADHD in college. She was open to a variety of treatments including prescription meds which have been very effective. She is cautious about the amount that he takes and listens to his concerns and gives good feedback.
Adrienne Cain
First and foremost I have to thank God for sending me to the Amen Clinic they saved my life . I was so broken when I got there but Dr. Gera was so amazing she found the best way to help me help myself. I am so happy I went thru horrible abuse and Amen Clinic saved my life .

Dr. Siegel has been extremely supportive and compassionate since she began caring for me several years ago. Her assistant, Kirsia, has been exceptionally responsive and kind.
I just did my spect scan and was absolutely blown away by the amount of information it revealed about my brain. Dr Romanelli reviewed the spect scan with me and better helped me understand what is going on with my brain and what we can do to make improvements. I was so impressed by his observations and experience that I signed up for weekly therapy calls. Dr Meinhardt was my functional medicine doctor and went in depth with my medical history and blood work. She answered all of my questions, we created a plan, and now we are working on next steps to help me lose weight and get healthier. Amen Clinic has greatly surpassed my expectations. I have had such a fantastic experience with Dr Romanelli and Dr Meinhardt that my son and wife are signing up for their own spect scan and health evaluation.

the experience of going to the Amen clinic was very enlightening. the information I received was life changing and I believe has helped me in many ways. the best part of my experience was the follow up. I never felt like I was alone on my journey. Dr. Romanelli and Jimmy helped guide the way. great people

I have been seeing Dr Seigel since 2021. As a person who has been on medications for years, it was an incredible relief that she instantly wanted to work with me on taking LESS. I have never worked with a doctor so wonderfully aware of her patients and their needs. I am on the lowest dosages of medication today and I feel my best. I am endlessly grateful for finding her!!!!

Re: Crystal Mendoza, Nuclear Scan Technologist I am writing to say Thank You to Crystal for her caring way in which she guided me through the SPECT scan process. She is a gentle person who seems to be able to read other people and be there to help in whatever way she can. Crystal puts one at ease, and as a result, makes the process go smoothly. I’m sure all those who have had her as a technologist found her to be well prepared in whatever she was working on, at the time. Thank you Crystal for your kindness and professionalism.

My recent comprehensive evaluation with Amen Clinics is one of the most informative and validating experiences I've had on my brain health journey. The results are informing what's next so I can work smarter, not harder, in continuing to change my brain. I recommend everyone get a baseline scan.

Where do I start with my poetic brain thinking in Spanish and trying to get to the point in English! First, I would like to tell every single one of you that your are not alone with your brains, thoughts and feelings. Many years ago, I came across a book from Dr. Amen in a gym..(of all places), right? At first I thought it was a religious book and not quite what I was hoping to accomplish at the gym when I took a peek. I went back home and did some research as I was curious and captivated enough with what he said about the lack of knowledge there is on subject of the brain and basically how we get treated with meds for behavioral issues without first taking a look at what is happening in our own brains. It was not until my teenage daughter started on this rollercoaster of emotions that I kept thinking would go away. Even with all the given support I felt I was lacking on the fundamentals. She had been diagnosed with ADD and All dds you can possibly think of. I never medicated her as I had read a lot and did not want to go there. She managed to correct and compensate many behaviors with good habits but it was not enough. Little issues become big ones as they grow. There we were after hurricane Maria in PR with a turmoil of a life which triggered what had always been laying beneath. It was back to school and off to college and she seemed ok but I knew she needed a supporting system and real knowledge for herself on what was happening to her. I remembered that name( hard to forget and pretty convenient too( I think he chose his name on purpose.. lol) Searched him up in Instagram.. never thought I would ever join that trend either! There he was.. giving knowledge and being honest. I liked him more after I saw him talking.. so I decided to call. I was glad they were in NY as well. So I called, his staff was extraordinary! Super through and very helpful. Made me feel I had a supportive family with me as I asked so many questions and they never got annoyed at me! They very patient and the tests done were like Nasa! It does not get more detailed than this. I am glad I made the decision. It cost me, and I am a middle class working mom so It can be done if this is a priority for mental health. For me its an investment to be able to understand better what My daughter goes through every day. Also They are conservative on giving meds right away. They started my daughter with supplements first. So this is not about starting with meds right away like most doctors would tend to do. Its about trying alternative first before you go take it further in her case. She is doing so much better every day with her supplements and the doctor’s recommendations. I am thankful.. and now is time to go.. I over exceeded my review! 🤦♀️
Thanks to the doctors here at amén clinics I'm back on my feet after a year of depression. The Other clinic that I went to did a terrible job with my medication that did more harm than good. Thanks to doctor Grin , I am now doing better in many aspects. I'm still waiting for a full recovery so I can add the 5th star. I know in time amén clinics will help me achieve my goal. Note you do have to put in the hard work.

I received outstanding customer service and great advice in a thoughtful and caring way from Karen Mayo.

The Amen Clinic continues to fill the educational bridge so badly needed for understanding not only how the brain functions but also how to best take better care of it. The clinicians all go the extra mile and spend extra time to understand how each brain functions to better customize the most effective treatment protocols. Their research is superb! I recommend everybody to get a baseline of their brain just thet would their heart, and be a part of the movement towards the best possible informed brain care! Donna Lalwani is an absolute doll and surely... an angel being among angels...

I heard about this clinic from a podcast from a business lady with ADHD who made me question myself and think I might have one too. I went and had my brain scan done. There is something special in seeing your brain and have the actual organ being analyzed (alongside with a list of questions answered and having a conversation with a doctor to get the final results) versus being evaluated on questionnaires only. You can actually see the lack of the blood flow in my part of the brain that manages focus. The staff is incredible. dr Siegel is very pleasant to talk to, she listens, suggests solutions, and praises you for achievements (yay for dopamine infusions, haha). We are still in the process of finding the best medication for me which - I know - can take time. She suggested some good supplements as well and other recommendations. They also provided a list of ADHD coaches in case if I’ll need a help of one. Can’t say enough good things about my coordinator- Kirsia. I’ve had troubles with medication shortage in pharmacies, with insurance not approving another medication etc, and she would patiently help me to resolve all the problems. One of the best things from being evaluated is understanding that my feeling were valid, suspicions of having adhd were legit and I’m not lazy like I used to think all my life. Knowing my diagnosis leads me to finding the way to live with it. Thank you so much!

excellent attention to detail. Crystal was very professional and helped my 88 yr old mother to ambulate with attention to detail. When my mother smiles, 5 stars are not enough. A thousand stars to Crystal and all there at Amen Clinics. Thank you Dr. Amen, Amen Clinics and stafs and clinicians, for providing "specialized" brain technologies, that mom's neuroligist AND neurosurgeon did not even suggest. Her former neuro docs wanted to perform surgery without a formal diagnosis. We're so blessed to have physicians like you, and staff at your clinics throughout the country now. Am looking forward to moms recovery. As her daughter and careworker it became difficult to see her condition progress, with increased memory and mobility decline. We have hope now, and look forward to her new horizon. Thank you to all.❤🧡💛

I highly recommend Amen Clinic for all services offered. They have treated Dr. Siegel and Mrs. Kirsia have treated me with respect; and each meeting has been highly effective.

Very thorough detailed customized treatment programs that in a short time can optimize overall health performance. While there are no short cuts in life, this is one of the most direct routes to improve your physical and mental health. This is the way healthcare should be delivered. Dr. Siegel and her staff are truly exceptional.
The clinic was very professional. The staff was friendly and proficient. Alex Trotman was also friendly and professional. Still working with Dr. Sood but initial appointment was helpful and he wanted to make sure all my questions were answered.
Sarah Gross
Dr. Grin is a wonderful listener who took the time to read my book and understand the full picture of my medical diagnosis. He was able to see me last minute for an emergency appointment and help get me the medication I needed when my other doctor was unresponsive. I really appreciate his attention to detail and how he treats holistically. He’s one of the best doctors I’ve ever had.
anne haumacher
Dr. Lowe and his Patient Care Coordinator - Yanebel Abreu were extremely responsive in working with medication refill complications between our mail order pharmacy benefit and the retail pharmacy. This level of responsiveness leads to great peace of mind.
They are kind people but more than that, they saved my life and validated what I was feeling. Regular psychiatrists never got this right for over 10 years and I've just passed the one year mark from starting my journey through the Amen Clinic and their amazing recommendations and I am healthier, happier and more healed than I have ever been in my life. I was so overly and wrongly medicated when I got here and worn down from not being heard and pushed around by doctors who were guessing what was "wrong" with me. The doctor I was assigned, Dr. Lowe, blew myself and my family away when reading my scans back to us of his findings. Turns out, my head hurting didn't mean I was "crazy" rather I had a neck injury from the many car accidents I was in. I was recommended to the top doc for this specific injury, Dr. Rosa, and sure enough, I have an Atlas Orthogonal Impediment that was blocking spinal fluid flow to my brain and cutting off my brain stem which was blocking my whole body function and putting pressure on my brain. I followed what my Amen Dr told me to do over the last year and I'm SO grateful for the opportunity to be cared for by people who genuinely are top of their field, highly connected to the right specialists and most importantly they had my trust right away. Worked with the recommended trauma specialist for PTSD, Dr. Ruden, and after the first session (30 mins) I cried from relief. He's that incredible. Without ever meeting me my Amen Dr. described me down to personality traits, only I and my family would know, from reading my scans, validating me and genuinely helping me to be whole again. I have all my cognitive functioning back, physical functioning back, take no psychological medication anymore (after decades of it being thrown at me and not working), am working with a function medicine dr , Dr. Buzz Mingin, (recommended by my Amen doc) who's reconnected me to my family and most importantly to myself. I fully trust the team that was built for me here. They got it right, right away, after over a decade of doctors putting me through hell...this place and these people, who really care, saved my life and I'm grateful.

Dr Trujillo is literally a life saver. We have been lucky enough to benefit from his experience, expertise and compassion across 3 generations. His approach to treatment is thoughtful, informed and perhaps most importantly, successful. Where other doctors have failed, Dr Trujillo succeeds. He isn’t afraid to think outside the box and he incorporates many levels of treatment from dietary changes and supplements, to exercise and of course medication. His approach to medication is a thoughtful balance of the SPECT scan reading, history and conversations with patient and family . Combining these things with his years of experience and amazing depth of knowledge gives him the skills needed to truly change peoples lives for the better. We are truly grateful every day for the way he has helped the members of our family to live happy, productive and successful lives. His positive impact cannot be overstated. He is a remarkable man for whom we have endless gratitude.
Kathleen Beyer
Got my results today and it was so eye opening. Wish I would have come here from the start. Would have saved me months of wrong medicine choices that made me feel awful. Dr. Romanelli was so knowledgeable and explained things in a way that really makes sense. I was skeptical at first what this would show me but now I think it was worth every penny.
Devon thompson
I’m going through so much with my brain and mental health amen clinic is the only ones helping, answering all my questions, and on top of everything and doing everything for me too get healthy and feel better, great clinic, great people, appreciate you dr amen, dr grin, and Ruben

Lana Lawrence
I can’t say enough about DR. GERA she is absolutely amazing!! She has taken such great care of my son Louis and has such a charismatic way about her and is extremely knowledgeable. She is also a very nice courteous doctor!! So happy we found her thank you amen clinics.
Aida Barnette
My vocabulary is extensive, yet I don't have enough words to express how pleased I am with the work of Dr. Gera, and everyone at the Amen Clinics in Reston, VA and NY. The giant question mark in the bubble over my head has now turned into a lightbulb, shining dimly right now but ever increasing in brightness. Dr. Gera was thorough and informative, polite, professional, kind, and it's clear she is very interested in the health of her patients. I'm thankful to be one of them and am looking forward to the coming journey of healing.
Dawn
Amen Clinics is wonderful! The staff here are very friendly, interested in you, and your brain health. Two thumbs to Maritha, Jasmine & Donna. Thank you.
Carol and Roger Pisani
I had to take a moment to deeply thank Dr. Grin for the extraordinary care and wisdom he offered to me. He was not only an active listener but also offered concrete wisdom and recommendations that have helped in many ways. I still have a long way to go but I am encouraged and have grown because of him. Thank you Dr. Grin. Sincerely, Carol Pisani

I highly recommend Dr. Zara Dobroshi and the brain scan procedure for anyone who is struggling with a traumatic brain injury, depression, PTSD or anxiety. Before coming to Amen Clinics NYC, I had been dealing with debilitating TBI ( traumatic brain injury ) symptoms for 2 long years. Regardless of everything I tried - vestibular therapy, cognitive rehabilitation therapy, physical therapy, talk therapy methods- I continued to suffer and was actually getting worse instead of better. I had literally begun praying for God to take me so that I no longer had to endure the torment I was in with my brain in so much pain and my not knowing what to do to help heal it. THANKFULLY, I found the information about the brain scan procedure just in time. Everyone at Amen Clinics - from the initial phone call to the receptionist to the doctors - were so kind and reassuring. For the first time ever, I finally felt like I was talking to professionals who understood my brain injury and knew what to do about helping me reclaim my life. It's been 4 months since I've gotten the brain scan results back and I feel like I have come out of the grave I was buried in to bask my face in the sunshine of life again. Progress with a TBI is a slow process but I AM making measurable progress with each passing month! Dr. Dobroshi has been so helpful in my journey of understanding what happened to me ( the physical, mental & emotional effects of a TBI ) and I can't express how grateful I am for her helpful and kind way of interacting with clients. You get out of Recovery what you are willing to put into it. So with the help of the brain scan results and Dr. Dobroshi's wisdom, I am putting my 100% into helping my brain heal and getting back to living a beautiful & fulfilling life! ❤️ Thank you, Amen Clinics NYC , for giving me HOPE and the ability to live again!
Alaina King
Absolutely the best. This clinic is grounding breaking and super helpful. Not only have our family members received exceptional treatment, but as a mental health provider I refer clients to help support holistic treatment and wellness beyond staying on a prescription for their lives. The brain does heal itself!
anne henshaw
I was acutely Ill with an ( non covid) infection and an unexplained ataxia ( with pre-existing ADHD) and the phone intake person listened patiently and was thorough and comforting. My case manager Julie was also a good interviewer and data collector and judgment free. The SPECT staff was able to move my time up that day as I was tiring and had a long commute after the scans, much appreciated flexibility. The office was calming and professional. My SPECT scan Nuclear professional was excellent in expertise and in giving positive feedback and a friendly vibe, good insight. Dr Romanelli expertly took my complex data and scans and computer cognitive data and integrated them into a personalized plan. The suggested hotel on the same block was kind, reasonably priced and quiet and Christian at the front desk was wonderful despite my short notice. Everything was done timely and seamlessly. As a retired healthcare professional with a neuro background, I appreciated that they treated me like an educated professional. The report was comprehensive. Thanx to the Amen NYC Team and have a smooth move in Feb 2022 to a new NYC location. Joke: make sure that great California SPECT Nuclear Professional gets back to Sunny California, too cold in NYC....you were great!

3RD VISIT TO AMEN CLINICS In a word: “reverence” was the gift I was given for my third visit to the New York Amen clinic. My visit was with Doctor Sood to give me the final results of the SPECT scans and all the results. Doctor Sood came aboard the zoom call beaming. This was an auspicious beginning. Like most of the rest of the world, I have been pretty battered from life. Yet the results of my SPECT scans showed that the work I have been doing on myself for the past at least 42 years especially on my own mental health have paid off. Doctor Sood explained that they were able to see in the physiology and overall health of my brain, that my choices were working to preserve the health of my brain. My choice to sit with ALL my feelings including the painful ones from a highly traumatizing childhood was what made the difference. The scans showed my results in the healthful activity of my brain. Dr. Sood showed me pictures of my brain, and said “You have a beautiful brain." Except for two areas that were a little underactive, my overall brain is very healthy, t.God. Dr. Sood suggested a book about inter-generational trauma. He also said I wouldn't need any additional medications, but did recommend 3 highly- researched supplements. Since then, the 3 supplements have helped a lot with mood and functioning. It is wonderful! Through very sophisticated testing by Amen clinics they were able to see that rather than Generalized Anxiety Disorder, I have Society Anxiety. Many of you like me have wandered like homeless nomads from doctor to doctor to find answers. I did not know what condition my brain was in at age 60, but Dr. Sood said I have no sign of dementia. All of us should be greeted with the reverence that I was lucky enough to experience by Doctor Sood and his colleague. I believe that reverence, the need for “awe” is a human need -- the need to feel awe as well as to experience awe from one's fellow beings. I believe essentially it is this reverence, and awe which do the healing. Because hand in hand with awe, of necessity, as Doctor Sood and his colleague, so aptly demonstrated, comes humility and they had it in abundance God bless them! So, if you're hurting don't go to doctors who don't see you,. Run instead to the Amen clinics where at the beginning, reverence may seem understated, but once they see you are oriented and fully capable of receiving, it becomes so obvious that they truly care about their patients. I have no religion and can’t be counted upon to explain what or who God is. My mind is too small. But I feel him/her/ it -- in the work done by the people at Amen Clinic in New York. And this third visit there confirmed it. So, the takeaway here is that yes, this is a good place to invest your money for your health. Because there only ever will be one of you and one of me in all of eternity so let's take care of ourselves.
Graham Lape
Dr. Dobroshi is one of the most knowledgable doctors I have ever had the pleasure of meeting. I would recommend her to all of my family members, friends and anyone looking to better their health. She is kind, genuine and thoughtful with putting a plan together that works. I only gave 4 stars because we have just begun to work together, but will add additional reviews as we progress together.
Marilyn Baker
I have been with Dr Grin for three years he is completely amazing most compassionate caring Dr. psychiatrist I have ever had the pleasure to spend time with his secretary It’s such a pleasure to always talk to they both go above and beyond to do everything to make your life as comfortable with any experience it’s all Wonderful and very pleasurable . .

I’ve never had a doctor or service make me feel so comfortable if you’re having any of these problems or any problems at all I highly recommend both of them
For the first time in my life I feel listened to. Natalie, Amanda and Melissa were wonderful to work with gently assuring me and removing any extra anxieties I had about the process. I'm looking forward to talking with Dr. Lowe about my results and finally finding a more holistic treatment plan for my mental health.

Truly the staff is amazing.
A clean, quiet, inviting waiting room, with gentle music in the background was what greeted me when I came out of the elevator on the 9th floor. Ariel, the main receptionist, was warm, kind and helpful. Paperwork went seamlessly. I had the whole waiting room to myself since I was the first patient of the day. And I almost didn't have to wait at all. Sue, the nurse practitioner who administered the tests on the first day, gave me a painless IV. There was none of this phoney "saccharine" sweetness nonesense from any of the staff that one can unfortunately find elsewhere. And, when the first brain (SPECT) scan was complete, because Sue knew that I sometimes get dizzy, she handed me my cane, even before I thought to need it. Sue had told me that there might be some discomfort during the scan, but I was perfectly comfortable. AND, she even told me, periodically during the scan, how many more minutes were left. So that was pretty good. Once the scan was done, reception handed me a receipt for my payment, which was good. I was able to get a cup of herbal tea from them, so that was nice. It was cool not to have to wait, definitely.
Tracey Riess
I'm so grateful to have had the experience to come to the Amen Clinic for SPECT scans and an evaluation.My scans were full of information which has improved my life with added supplements,diet,behavior modifications,exercise,quality sleep and I continue to see my doctor at the clinic monthly for now.I lost 8lbs,my energy is good,I'm happier and I'm going to continue do what I'm doing.
patrick gaffney
Very thorough, respectful and helpful. Tech who helped me with the tests was very lovely, and dr Lowe was very good at breaking down the results I. Terms we could understand. Would recommend to anyone!
Janet Drachman
My husband and I have been visiting this office for years now, and it has been an exceptional experience. Dr. Lowe has been outstanding, responsive, and I feel he truly listens to my needs. I was lucky enough to find him after another physician told me I was “pathetic”. His assistants have helped me through some difficult conversations- particularly Shivan and Kiera!! I would strongly recommend this practice to anyone!
Nicholas f
A world class psychiatric and neurological treatment facility that gets right to the heart of the matter! Thank you Dr Sood, Natalie and staff for helping finally diagnose my mother's problems. She has been like a different person in the last weeks. 20 years of suffering solved in 2 days! God Bless You All!!!
James Levinson
Was struggling with post concussion syndrome and they litterally saved my life. Found out that i had cranial cervical syndrome where essentially your vertebrae in your neck are pinching your arteries in your neck restricting blood flow to your brain. Got it fixed and i have never felt better. I can’t thank them enough for getting my life back on track!
Annette Boland-Pletten
I am expressing my deep appreciation, for the opportunity provided by the staff of Amen Clinics, New York, to experience first hand The Amen Method approach to Brain Health. Through this experience, I was provided with clinical shadowing training, by it's highly professional and pleasant staff members. The shadowing training included a review of neuroanatomy of the brain systems and behaviors related to each system, intake and clinical history processes and assessment tools as well as interpretation of neuroimaging scans during physician evaluations. I was extremely impressed with the thoroughness of the assessments and SPECT scans, the quality of the information provided by the physicians in their analysis of the scans and the treatment options provided. I would not hesitate to refer other clients to the Amen Processes or clinicians to the Brain Health Coaching Certification Course. Thanks once again to the Amen Clinic in New York, for providing me with a knowledge base to help me provide my clients with an integrative approach to assist them in taking care of their brain health, from an information base.
Steven Giuffrida
The whole staff at Amen Clinic was so professional and so caring. Dr Lowe was so kind to us and gave us hope with our daughters medical condition. Hoping this is the start of recovery for her.
Claudia Sosa
Going to the Amen clinic and finding out how my brain is working and understanding how to take care of it was the best.
edward buro
We were very impressed with our total experience. Everyone was very professional and friendly. More importantly, they were all concerned about helping us. Dr. Lowe is an amazing doctor who possesses the qualities of kindness, compassion, and takes the time to see to our needs in order to succeed. We are very happy to have encountered him.
Caroline Haydu
The staff at Amen Clinics was friendly and professional, and they clearly have a heart for helping people. I’m excited to get started on their plan for my son.
Nicki Butane
Although it will be some time before the results take effect, my understanding of the overall conditions that I'm dealing with gives me great optimism for the future. I learned so much more than I imagined and it's all good. Great folks, a brilliant experience, truly grateful for this discovery in my life. Rod
Brian Wilford
All of the clinic staff from the receptionist, administrators, technicians and physicians were very caring, friendly, welcoming and competent. Dr. Lowe is outstanding! Looking forward to returning for follow up.
Alexander McClean
I was warmly received by the front desk staff, directors, and medical professionals. Between my sessions to go over my history, online assessment, scan, and sit-down with my assigned psychiatrist (Dr. Sandlin Lowe) I was provided a very thorough review with a wide range of resources. I feel extremely grateful to have had the opportunity to visit the clinic receive such incredible guidance.
theresa ferraro
Dr. Sandlin Lowe and his staff Natalie was amazing with our family. They offered us choices and solutions we felt were safe and effective for our daughter. He was thorough and spoke in layman's terms when it came to understanding the brain and how it works. We left hopeful and can say we even had a good time at the Amen clinic.
Louise Dietz
I had a wonderful experience at the Amen Clinic. The entire staff was so attentive to both my granddaughter and me. The combined results of my SPECT scans, history and computer quizzes were explained clearly by Dr. Lowe. I received far better news than I had expected to hear. The packet of materials that I brought home are very informative.The materials are keeping me interested in being faithful to follow the Omni Diet as well as the recommendations I received at the clinic. Thank you Dr. Lowe and all of the staff. I definitely recommend The Amen Clinic.
Dave Dornfeld
Dr Sandin Lowe is very good and spent the needed time and explained his resoning well. very knowledgeable!
Hannah Wamhoff Hofer
The doctor I visited was very knowledgeable and the administration staff was very friendly. The information and treatment plan I received was thorough and helpful. The technician who administered the SPECT scans was unprofessional and even rude at times. She did not ask me if I was comfortable for the scans and I didn't feel like the process was as sanitary as it could be. She seemed very absent-minded and I worried she forgot about me. Apart from my experience with the technician, I would definitely recommend the clinic and doctors there.
Glenda C
I just completed my 3 day evaluation with the Amen NYC Clinic. Dr. Sood was very helpful and all of my scans validated what we suspected was going on in my brain and gave me new information that left me in tears because it explains issues I was having but were never identified by previous healthcare providers. I came away with a workable plan to get me started on the path to great brain health. The staff was incredibly professional and the Clinic Care Coordinator and Clinic Director took the time to meet with me and discuss my visit and let me know they were there to assist me in any way. My follow up is in 2months. I'll repost an update after my visit. So worth the time and the money!
Carolina Bennasar Felix
Make a difference in my life!! Very professional and Dr Sood is great
Marion Taylor
A great overall experience. Professional and friendly. Warm, caring staff.
Patrick Gray
Dr. Sood is a great doctor to work with. I had a positive experience at the clinic.
L - S
The experience at Amen Clinic was exceptional from initial contact, through the SPECT and clinical history, and meeting with Dr. Sood. I am a clinical social worker and alcohol and drug counselor who knows the impact of substances on the brain, but I learned so much more about my child's brain and feel more hopeful than I have in a long time with the treatment regimen presented. Dr. Sood sat with my husband and myself and patiently explained everything. John took the clinical history and was very thorough. Thank you to everyone at Amen Clinic. You are truly wonderful!
Karen Belleville
The staff at Amen were very friendy, informative, and helpful. Overall a great experience and we left with a realistic, feasible treatment plan.
Jo Massaro
Everyone from the beginning of this process, including phone contacts, emails, and office visits were exceptional. I felt that each person took their time to explain what to expect, what was happening, and subsequently, the results. The staff was great and even assisted in other needs. I really appreciated the fact that my spiritual life, which is a very important part of my life, could be included in my plan. The results made me feel that I had greater clarity on my issues, a plan well developed, supported and understood. My husband went with me and this was a great support to the overall understanding and follow through for me in my life. I have made a commitment to make changes in my life and am thankful that I have this intervention in my life. I'm not going to give up and recognize that I have to take it one day at a time. Thank you.
Ashley E. Pincins
I remember sitting in a Practicing Mental Health Nursre Practitioner's (PMH-NP) office during my Post Graduate Year 1 pharmacy residency at a health center in Bangor, ME. I was undergoing a rotation of shadowing mental health providers. Mental health and psycopharmacology was an area I seemed to have a lot of interest in, had been giving advanced pharmacy practice experience in (working in in-patient mental health institutions) and also taking psych electives during pharmacy school. I remember during one shadow session, my eyes wandered to the book 'The 7 Types of ADD'. Intrigued, especially due to my just being diagnosed with ADD in my 6th and last year of pharmacy school, (after presenting with anxiety), I found that I agreed with the aprroach Dr. Amen was taking towards treating ADD. When my parent's saw a cable special featuring Dr. Amen, they were convinced I had Ring of Fire and wanted me to go to the Amen clinic right away. I was a bit cautious of this idea, and a bit resistant as well. It took me viewing Dr. Amen's 'TEDx' talk to really understand and get excited about going to the Amen Clinic. Now that I have had a brain scan and have completed my 'Evaluation' with Dr. Lowe, I find myself immediately charged with self-esteem. It was amazing to have the ability to Look at my Brain, an organ that had been puzzling my friends, my families, my medical providers and above all, myself for some time. I feel as if we should replace other costly, uneccessary testing such as Bone Density Scans and Vitamin D levels with SPECT scans. Everyone should have the opportunity to Look at their own brain. I was a bit emotionally stirred at the anticipation of what my scan would show, but now that I've seen it, in all it's objective glory, Wow! I wish this Joy upon everyone who struggles to Live and Exist and hold Relationships with the world while simultaneously having to cope with some mental irregulatrity they or others have diagnosed themselves with. Shakespeare in Hamlet wrote 'Know thyself.' He meant many benefits by it, but one of them is the Power of Self-Awareness that comes with viewing one's on Brain in front of them. Having the shapes of the Brain invite questions about behavior, rather than having shapes of behavior invite questions abiout the Brain. Brain imagery and psychiatry are truly a story of backwards diagnostical approach. Just like many beneficial vitamins, minerals and supplements are being developed and marketed to the public in a backwards manner as well. This is truly an example of bottom-to-top, ground level up, grass roots (if you will) approach to caring for the Human Body. Not only am I proud that we have discovered in my Lifetime that the Brain is Connected to the Body, but that we can also See the Brain as we See the Body. Imagine the road blocks, miscommuinications and poor decisions that will be avoided once We as a Society can Conquer the Human Mind, as much as we have conquered Space travel, Deep Sea mapping, high impact exploring and invasive surgery. Just as Singer/Songwriter Amanda Palmer has helped shape the future of Art, as social media has empowered the Public as the Media, so will Brain scanning empower the Individual to See Themselves, Know Themselves, Love Themselves and Care for Themselves. Once we find that resulting Inner Peace, we will be closer to Peaceful relationships between people, cultures and countries. Namaste.
