Patient Reviews
Mar 09, 2023
I’ve been a patient of Dr. Paintal for about 10 years. I never feel rushed at my appointments with her. She listens to me is caring and wants what’s best for me. She is prompt when I leave her a message she always gets back to me the same day also if I need my prescriptions refilled she will fill it the same day. All my 10 years with her as my psychiatrist I haven’t had a issue with her. Would recommend her.
