I have been seeing Dr. Lopez since I was around the age of 17 and I’m now 25. I’ve struggled with anxiety issues since I was a kid and Dr. Lopez has help me tremendously. I was recently diagnosed was cancer which caused me a lot of anxiety and depression. Dr. Lopez provided me with a lot of comfort, coping mechanisms, and adjusted my medication which alleviated a lot of my anxiety. I can tell that Dr. Lopez is very passionate about what he does, which makes me feel very comfortable under his care. His office staff is also wonderful. They were able to get me in for an emergency appointment when I had first found out I had cancer, which I am extremely grateful for. Thanks for all you do!

Both myself and my husband are patients of Dr. Lopez. I have seen him for several years. Finding him was like a God send, after going through many doctors who just didn't seem to care. Dr. Lopez is engaged, thorough, thoughtful, concerned, and listens carefully to anything you care to share with him. He is the Best of the Best!

This office screens their new patient calls. If you are on the Affordable Care Act Insurance, they say they are not taking patients.

Dr Lopez is by far the most competent, diligent and respectable psychiatrists in Pinellas County. I've never had a Dr remember specific details about my life that I briefly mentioned to him in past appointments. Maybe he reviews my chart before my appointment or maybe he doesn't but to me the fact that he wants me to know that I'm not just a human dollar sign is good enough for me. I have had some awful experiences w/ therapists in the past and Dr Lopez put my faith back in behavioral health!

I have seen Dr. Lopez for over 13 years for major depression and anxiety. After working to stabilize my medications, I am relatively free from symptoms. He always listens and works with me when my situation may change or there is an event that I believe he can help with. He has my well being in mind and my trust.

I have been seeing Dr. Lopez for over eight years. I remember when I first met him. I was a miserable twenty some year old kid. Since then he has helped me grow so much. I only live in FL part time and a big part of that is due to him. He respects me and my schedule. I will never switch doctors ever. I trust him so much. He listens to me, gives me suggestions and positive feedback. If you are looking for someone who you can talk to and who will listen... I highly recommend him.

Dr. Ron Lopez has a very compassionate and warming personality. I first started seeing him five years ago w/my symptoms diagnosed. I felt really relaxed and at home due to his warm demeanor. He helped me diagnose my symptoms. If you or someone you love is struggling with depression, schizophrenia, or bi-polar disorder; I would highly recommend him. He has helped me and I feel like he really cares for me and doesn't treat me as another number!
