I'm super surprised Craig Emes has 4.5 star rating. He did diagnose me which was super important. But that's all he did . He said just go back to my doctor and all the recommendations are sent to my gp. So basically my life is still shattered upside down , it's been 4 years now. And I'm still just totally dysfunctional. Great phyciatrist thanks a lot .

I saw Dr. Emes about 5 years ago to get help with ADHD medications as the ones I was on were not working. He had to re-do my whole history as I am an orphan. He took his time, and got me on the right meds. I would highly reccommend this Doctor if you're thinking you may have ADHD. He's very thorough and listens well. Recently had my husband referred to him as well.

Dr. Emes is knowledgeable, punctual, helpful, organized and considerate! He was efficient at diagnosing my ADHD and took the time to see how he could be of support.

The first meeting felt a bit rushed and I had some doubts about how I’d feel about his treatment plan. But I was happily surprised by how satisfied I was with a treatment plan that felt personal to me and well rounded...not just medication. I’d recommend him to anyone wanting to learn more about finding health and balance with ADHD.

Dr. Emes provided me with a generous amount of time considering how we lack funding for this kind of service. He was very patient and kind, he took the time to explain to me things that I didn’t understand from being undiagnosed for so long. He also offered an array of different treatment options and assisted me with planning for my future. He took the time to explain what was going to happen step-by-step and followed through with everything. I felt safe in our appointment and supported, he is a genuinely non judgemental and caring professional, I’m super happy.

Once I was referred to Dr. Emes, it was about a 4 month wait which wasn't as long as I thought it would be. I really liked that I was sent an assessment form prior to the appointment since I'm typically much better at writing out my symptoms/issues instead of having to think of them on the spot. I was quite nervous at the beginning of my appointment, but Dr.Emes calmed me down and told me my diagnosis right away so I didn't have to anxiously wait. The next appointment was going over a treatment plan which I will be starting shortly. I am so grateful that I was referred to Dr. Emes and finally feel like I was listened to!

Dr. Emes was really comforting and reassuring during the whole process, making me feel very relaxed about the diagnosis and overall treatment plan.

Long wait time to get in, but can hardly fault him for that as caseloads are terrible for most medical fields around here. During the zoom appointments he was perfectly on time, listened to me about my past experiences and worked with me to treat my problems in a way I was comfortable with. 100% satisfied with the appointments and would happily go to him again.
