Patient Reviews
Feb 22, 2016
Dr. Forest is thoroughly invested in the well-being of her patients and 100% committed to approaching treatment from a holistic perspective. Very intelligent and scrupulous as well. Incredibly refreshing to find a psychiatrist who genuinely cares about finding a long-term solution for her patients rather than recklessly tossing pills at a problem.

What’s a board certification and why is it important that my provider has one?
