Sharon Packer MD

She has the worst Yelp reviews I have seen for any business - overall 1 star rating. But she takes my insurance and she's close to home - how bad can she be..... After filling out 6 pages of forms and chasing this woman down for a week and a half, she, having clearly not read any of my dozen or so emails or any of the forms I completed, inexplicably said that she couldn't help me. If she is trying some experimental treatment involving challenging people's frustration tolerance, she is exceptionally good at exasperating. I did not, however, find this approach therapeutic. Steer clear of this nut case.

As quoted from a previous patient's comment, this lady is a real nut. Steer clear. Do not, even if she is the last doctor in NYC, DO NOT GO TO HER. After chasing her down for months and finally getting an appointment, she was not understanding my tardiness due to a major snowstorm. She never read the piles of paperwork and repeatedly asked me for things I had already filled out and sent over. She was wildly unprofessional and extremely rude. Very insensitive and not accommodating at all. Save yourself the trouble and aggravation, find another doctor! Zero starts is a more accurate depiction of her services.

I don’t understand the bad reviews. She’s the best psychiatrist that has ever treated me. She’s never harsh and has always been kind to me. And she listens. I can only guess that certain patients she treats are difficult. She’s a lifesaver for me.

Horrible experience. Please DO NOT see her and find another doctor.
