See what our patients are saying about Leah Silver

Leah is the best psychiatric provider I’ve ever had. She is so knowledgeable and friendly. She has really helped me understand my ADHD diagnosis so much better. Which has helped me navigate the debilitating symptoms that can come with unmanaged ADHD. She listens to me, hears my concerns, doesn’t speak down to me, and I feel like she really cares. I’m so happy to have found her.

I cannot speak more highly of Leah Silver. She is patient, a great listener and works hard to try and pinpoint what’s going on. I’d give 10 stars if possible.
