This place is unethical, unprofessional. I had the best doc and she left. The new one, utterly terrible. She started me on a new med, then missed THREE virtual appts. I have the screenshots saying your provider has not logged in. Only after the third one did her receptionist call me. No follow up on the others! What? I couldve been dead, whatever. Then this receptionist. I could barely understand her. Then right in the middle she lets out, hey girl! You just go on and sit down! Right in my ear. Then she gets the name of my m... read more
While my psychiatrist is a lovely woman who has helped me find the medications I need, I would never recommend the Lifestance Health company to anyone, let alone mentally vulnerable individuals. I have been a patient for a year now, and in that time I have switched insurance from private to ******** (which was confirmed to be in-network). Their billing "department", if you can call it that, is impossible to get a hold of. They have continued to **** my old insurance which is under my mother's employer, despite having my curr... read more
The billing department is a disaster. I have received multiple bills for out of network charges when they are in network with my insurance. When disputing the claims because they were coded incorrectly I was met with resistance and incredibly slow response times. I also got an out of network **** for services performed over a year past the date of the appointment. They do not answer the phone so you have to leave a message and hope you have time to talk when they call back. After hearing "Our team will get it sorted out, I d... read more
Spent a good amount of time trying to find the right person with appropriate training and specialization for my situation, and happened to find a Dr that worked with Lifestance. I made an appointment online, and a few days before the appointment they scheduled an intake call. The morning before the intake call I get a text asking me to confirm my appointment, however during the course of the intake call they tried to pull a bait and switch with another ******** Dr they tried to switch me with had none of the qualifications o... read more
The counselor cancelled or was late to numerous scheduled appointments. Also, after a year they claimed I hadn't paid for my initial appointment and rather than sending me an invoice they called and then sent it directly to a debt collector.
I have decided to move my treatment elsewhere. My provider constantly canceled and rescheduled my appointments, and I found it impossible to keep up with them. After allegedly missing an appointment, they had the nerve to charge me $100 after I have been nothing but flexible with them. To this date can not find a single reminder text or email regarding this appointment. Things have gone downhill since the merger. When I first noticed the charge on my account, I attempted to reach someone in the office numerous times and was ... read more
I had been with Lifestance from early 2020 to late 2021. In that time, I have had three psychiatrists; the first two ended up leaving the practice a few months after I started seeing them. Needless to say, I did not have a coherent treatment plan. I've had so many frustrating and harmful experiences with Lifestance's doctors and corporate end that it would take a book to fully detail them; instead here's my kindly condensed version:The first doctor I saw (I'll call him J) came in not taking my symptoms seriously. I had to pr... read more
BEWARE OF THIS COMPANY- ALREADY INVOLVED IN CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT. My elderly mother had a major issue with this company that caused her physical and emotional distress. At the time of the initial call to schedule an appointment with a psychiatrist, she gave her insurance information ********* with PPO) and was told her insurance was approved. Her appointment was scheduled for 6 weeks later, and she was issued a confirmation number. At the end of business on the day before the appointment, she received a message that Lifestan... read more
I should have noticed when all the doctors started to leave the practice that there was a real problem with LifeStance taking over my former practice. One appointment I tried to switch to Telehealth and was denied the ability to do so (especially with my personal situation LifeStance should have been understanding of why I couldn't come into the office - but they really don't care about patients well-being) so when I tried to cancel they charged me a missed appointment fee because it wasn't 48-hours notice (it was 24). My re... read more
