Patient Reviews
Oct 13, 2020
I’m not sure what our family would have done without Dr Melinda Young when my boys were little. One of my boys had debilitating anxiety with some OCD and had been misdiagnosed and put on highly inappropriate drugs by a collaboration of two well known Bay Area child psychiatrists and a pediatrician. The other had atypical ADHD and was acting out, under the care of a different child psychiatrist. In both cases, several years apart, Dr Young was able to disentangle the mess, with endless patience and careful prescribing, keeping notes on each incremental change. She put them both on the correct path not only medically but with some down-to-earth talk therapy. Both are doing wonderfully years later. I wish every kid who needs medication could have that chance.

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

A board certification represents a provider’s dedication to ongoing training in one or more specialties, including the completion of intensive exams. While not all specialties have board certifications, if your provider does have one they’ve taken the extra step to master their specialty and to keep up with the latest advancements in their field.
