Office in Gables is poorly run; bad RX policy.
I booked an appointment at with Dr. Saiz at Mind & Soul Therapy & Acupuncture, explaining I wanted a doctor who was willing to provide medication maintenance without requiring me to make an appointment every month for a refill. I called the office several days before my appointment for advance forms to save time. Their portal didn't work. After several phone calls and left messages, I was able to get advance forms by email. When I arrived for my appointment, the forms were completely different. Dr. Saiz had a NEW form saying face-to-face appointments are required for all refills of Rx's. The doctor would not discuss her policies with me before the appointment and curtly told me this might not be the right office for me. Also, office staff did not verify my insurance coverage until 7 pm the night before my appointment and told me incorrectly the amount required by my insurance. It took a conference call with the insurance to straighten them out.

Dr. Saiz has been my doctor for a few years now. She has given me more motivation and confidence than my own family. She has helped me through situations that I had absolutely no answers for. There are still kind hearted and sincere doctors in this world and she is one of them. She is absolutely amazing and I could not thank her enough for everything that she has done. I wish there were more doctors like her.

Horrendous! Dr Maria Saiz was not helpful at all. At first, I believed she was there to help myself as with most of her patients. Later on I noticed within her staff and her attitude included. She began to be very nasty with another patient where she was to the point of tears. I wouldn't expect that type of behavior from a professional. They supposed to help people and treat them with respect. That to me was a bad impression. Will go to another doctor.

Dr. Maria Saiz Quintana is an excellent professional who is very knowledgeable, attentive, extremely compassionate and caring. She took the time and effort to understand the root of my problems. She was the first doctor to suggest a genetic test to determine the best medication for me and treated me properly. The office is comfortable, beautiful and clean. The office staff (Yeimy and Yadira) is very kind and always available via messages through the office cell phone when needed. Spanish/English

I have been seeing Dr. Saiz Quintana for several years now and I cannot say enough positive things about her and everyone in her practice. She is one of the most professional, smart, caring and supportive doctors I have ever seen. She has helped me in countless ways and I highly recommend her services. Her support staff is friendly and very responsive to any request such as scheduling an appointment or refilling medication. But most importantly, Dr. Saiz Quintana is an outstanding clinician.
