TESTIMONIALS

I have been seeing Dr. Elsamra for over four years and for the first time in my adult life, I feel like I’ve found the perfect mix of psychotherapy and the right meds to handle my intense mental situations. When I was at rock bottom with my addiction and doing many treatments, IOP's, etc., nothing ever clicked. I was bombarded with meds that were not prescribed for my condition, therefore, never helped me. Things changed upon seeing Dr. Elsamra. He is very respectful, knowledgeable and truly listens. I totally entrust my care in his hands.

Dr. Elsamra and the entire team at Elevate were fantastic! Not only was it the first program that helped my recovery, I feel like they also viewed me as a whole person not purely on recovery. The gains I've made in my overall mental health due to Elevate and Dr. Elsamra have made every aspect of my life better.

Dr. Elsamra epitomizes professionalism. He shows genuine concern and empathy and takes a pragmatic, comprehensive approach to care. He and his staff provide an integrated and coordinated patient experience where therapy and medication go hand in hand.

Dr. Elsamra played a critical role in helping me achieve important goals. His willingness to be transparent, honest and upfront has made me feel extremely comfortable. I feel very fortunate to have Dr. Elsmara as my therapist and look forward to continuing a successful journey with him.

Attentive, knowledgeable and professional all around. A very coordinated and multi-faceted approach to mental health care.

He was extremely kind and took the time to try to understand my unique story and to figure out how he could best help me. He prescribed me meds to detox at home as well as a couple of meds he felt would be useful to support my healing. Dr. Elsamra isn't afraid to prescribe meds that could be helpful, but he also doesn't over-prescribe. He seems to look for the sweet spot for each client, looking for the optimal mix of maximally safe and effective meds for each individual, depending on their unique needs. I also love that Dr. Elsamra sits in on the IOP group from time to time to get to know the members.

Exceptional doctors and caring staff. I could not be more impressed with the work they do & the dedication they show to helping their patients. Dr Elsamra is one of the most respected doctors in his field, and he absolutely deserves that level of respect. He is very knowledgeable and does not give up, though he lets patients slip until they take responsibility for their own health and future. He is also brutally honest when he needs to be. I’m not sure if my daughter’s father would be here today if it wasn’t for Dr Elsamra. I also have tremendous appreciation for the other doctors and staff, because they have helped me find strength, clarity, and stability through a very challenging time in my life. Dr Elsamra and the doctors at Elevate are also capable of treating patients with very complicated and challenging mental health issues, including dual-diagnosis disorders.

Dr. Elsamra and Jen are both great. They helped me process when I was at a pretty low point. Jen is the absolute kindest and is a great person to have in your court. Dr. Elsamra was able to get me sorted out within a couple of weeks and I'm feeling so much better. I also LOVE that they care holistically about your mental health and have both therapists and psychiatrists available in the same place. It's so much easier and takes the pressure off of miscommunicating information between offices.

Dr. Elsamra is the best!

Dr. Elsamra has been amazing at guiding me through two pregnancies with perinatal depression. Initially I was skeptical that the only providers in my search were men, thinking they couldn't possibly relate. But Dr. Elsamra is very empathetic, listens attentively and is extremely knowledgeable about medication management and pregnancy.

Dr. Elsamra is excellent!

I am very grateful to Dr. Elsamra for helping us find a diagnosis for my son. He was the first doctor who did not dismiss my observations and concerns. In addition, his insight and knowledge has been invaluable in helping treatment for my son.

I feel I have made a great deal of progress with my anxiety and the right medications have been very important. I’ve also been able to gradually reduce the amount of medication I need to take for sleep issues. Thank you, Dr. Elsamra.

Dr. Elsamra is the best and he really cares.

Dr. E is amazing he saved my life and opened my eyes to a better way of life - a sober life. I am so grateful for this place. Thank you for all you all have done for me!
