I think Dr. Garcia is capable, as he did prescribe me medication that treated my symptoms well, but I do not like him as a person. He had me go to a pharmacy out of the way, and when I asked why I could not get the scripts filled somewhere closer to me, he basically admitted to how he has vested financial interest in sending his patients to this particular pharmacy. This just tells me he cares more about his financial well being than the well being of his patients. He also lacked empathy.

Dr Garcia has been my psychiatrist for over 7 years and has helped through many crises in my life. I am Bi-Polar and have ADD. I also utilize one of his therapists, Meredith, who has also been a great help for approximately 4 years. Although his practice is very busy, he has always made time for me and any questions I might have.

Novi Psychiatry and Psychology is THE most unorganized office I have ever dealt with.
Keep all payment receipts!
I had to prove payment several times due to the lack of organization and high turn over rate of employees. Very frustrating.
I was doing their job for them. I wanted to send THEM a bill for my time.

This practice is a complete joke and unprofessional. The patient never saw the DR, but the PA billed at his high rates and the therapist bills at his high rates. The therapists are temporarily licensed and have little experience and are not supervised by the psychiatrist. Bad advice and diagnosis are given.

We have been seeing Dr Garcia for years. Since he has moved and added so many more staff the quality of care has gone downhill. I feel like it's a mill, just get your prescriptions and run. Dr Garcia use to talk to us all and felt he did a much better job before he just got too big. Sometimes bigger really isn't better.

Dr. Garcia is a very kind, professional doctor. He listened to my "Story" and actually cared, gave advice, and wanted my life to finally be, BETTER. Highly recommend Dr. Garcia and his PA; Lauren!

Very disappointed with the service and hospitality here. Appointments were always about an hour late. The facility is not kid friendly...no toys, magazines...nothing for kids in the waiting room. Dr. and staff didn't work very hard to create a connection with my son. After making the decision to leave, I asked to not be charged for the initial evaluation. Dr. acted like I was insulting him. Little empathy. I've been teaching (for 18 years) in the area and would not recommend this office.

Dr. Garcia is among the best doctors that I have seen. He is without a doubt the best in my opinion. He very clearly evaluated my situation and lifestyle and managed to help me view things a bit differently with a few good laughs. We have established a very good Doctor/Patient relationship over the years. I enjoy my visits with Dr. Garcia and I always feel as comfortable as I do in my own home!

Although I know Dr. Garcia is certainly qualified, I don't like him. He hardly looked at my son and I and his manner was dismissive. The staff was rude, we were charged to pick up prescription outside of an appointment. I have never heard of that. My son's regular pediatric doctor now prescribes and monitors his meds. Will NEVER go back here.

Many years of horrible billing and record keeping. Hard to get an appointment, charged for ever single thing. To print records, monthly refilles. Just a place to get drugs. not other help offered. When the patient moves. Good luck getting records transferred. Bills and puts into collection on the wrong persons name. Totally no HELP law being kept here. My son is 27 and his records are still coming to his stepdads name. actually, step dads first name and son's last. 7 years trying correct.

Years ago I took my son, who was around eight years old at the time, to see Dr. Garcia. He might be better now, but he didn't talk to my son at all. Even though young children can't tell the doctor many things, they still need the doctor to show interest in them directly. I never took my son back and found another psychiatrist instead.

Dr Garcia is wonderful he is the best Dr I have seen when it comes to prescribing medications for metal health. He actually listens to you unlike some and works it out with you asking if you have any questions he is honest and strait forward
