Very Calm Demeanor. Decisions are made with you.
I've had some very dark days for a very long time. He listens very well and provides logical choices. He does not rush you. Your opinion about your health and meds matters. he gave me coping skills and we decide meds and treatment together. He appears to truly care about the patient and their well being. Very happy to have him as a provider and I now have brighter days.

Lacks Professionalism, Rigid in Archaic Beliefs
I was paired with him for med management through Monarch NC. Our first appointment was after an initial evaluation by a Monarch psychiatrist (and before that an NP outside of Monarch) who both diagnosed me with ADHD. Samuel berated the psychiatrist for diagnosing me with ADHD, saying that "psychiatrists just love to give everybody ADHD." He then insinuated that I was just drug-seeking, saying "of course you want stimulants, who doesn't love stimulants?" and refused to treat me for anything other than depression. My therapist was understandably upset with him because not being on the correct medication made my therapy more difficult and less productive. After my 2nd appointment with Samuel, I expected to see him in another few weeks like normal. Shortly after, my therapist commented that she was glad that I wouldn't have to see him for med management any longer, because he retired from Monarch. When she realized he never gave me notice, she was even more glad that he was leaving.

If you suffer from anxiety, depression or not sure why your mood changes, please seek help . I am Eastern Europe’s and in my culture those things as depression are taboo, I was so grateful for Samuel Aloian to share his medical knowledge and it’s opens the whole new world for me to understand the medical treatment of anxiety and depression via pill. I actually can have normal days that I can function better and enjoy doing things. Thank you for your medical support and coaching for helping me to be at my best .

I have been speaking with PA Mr. Aloian for about a year and have found him to be very easy to talk with, professional and he also helps me with advice on diet and with helping me find info on other issues. I couldn't be happier with Mr. Aloian and his staff!

I’ve been seeing Dr. Aloian for about 2 months now. I am so glad I switched doctors! Even though he prescribes medicine, talking to him also felt therapeutic and much like a small therapy session! He is very compassionate and I can tell he cares about helping me get well. He was very thorough in his explanation of my condition and ways I could make improvements, alongside the medication that he prescribed. I felt that he was very genuine and knowledgeable. Can’t wait to see where I am with my treatment a few months from now.

I have been under the care of Samuel Aloian, PA-C for a year. Mr. Aloian treats me with compassion, honesty, and Integrity. He asks appropriate questions and listens intently to my answers. I feel I am a part of and involved in my treatment plan. Mr. Aloian is very knowledgeable about medications, side effects, and how they may interact. As an unexpected bonus, he is well-informed about another health condition I have which has been a huge comfort to me. His health suggestions are very doable. He shares how his suggestions will likely benefit me so I feel motivated to do them. In the year I have been treated by Mr. Aloian, I have seen a steady yet profound improvement in my health and life.

Sam is wonderful. I have been in therapy off and on for about 35 years with Borderline Personality disorder and major depression. He suggested some changes in my approach to life and explained, better than anyone, what my diagnosis meant and how it affected my behavior. It was like a light bulb going off. If you are ready to start working on improving your approach to life, Sam is perfect with the right amount of motivation, sympathy, and medication.

He is good at knowing what meds to give you but wasn’t very holistic. Most of the visit was about him trying to adjust my medication regimen even though I was stable. Would recommend for someone in a crisis, has a new mental health diagnosis, or has an acute situation. I wouldn’t recommend him for someone who is stable and wants to actively participate in their own care.

I strongly recommend seeing Dr. Sam if you are struggling with something in your life that won’t resolve itself. He is great at treating me with compassion and kindness. His demeanor is such that he helps you help yourself by listening to you and helping you over the hurdles / obstacles that may be blocking your path to progress. I am very thankful that I was matched up with Dr. Sam

I have really enjoyed his holistic and sensible approach to treating my depression and anxiety. He is very easy-going he provides specific medical and directed care along with therapeutic advice to build a foundation beyond medical intervention. Genuinely the best clinician I have had for my mood disorders.

Great doctor. Cares about patients. I can tell because I see him once a month, and even though he has other patients, he remembers all the details of what's going on in my life. Absolutely recommend if you're looking for a great one.

I highly recommend Dr. Aloian. I am a patient with a chronic mental illness under his care. I have achieved a much higher level of functioning than I previously thought possible. I cannot thank him enough for such high quality care that I believe he provides. He seems incredibly educated verging on scholarly : ) regarding medicines and their effects on behavior which is very important to me. I think he truly cares and takes the time to answer questions, thanks Dr. Aloian!

I had been struggling to find both a compassionate and knowledgeable psychiatrist for quite some time! From the initial visit - I felt like Sam wanted to get to know me as a person and not just a diagnosis. He is truly invested in finding new and creative ways to manage mental health struggles. I had been on so many different medications through the years and seemed to be in a “stuck” pattern, but Sam was able to be creative with minimal medications and could not thank him enough :)

Dr. Aloian got me back on track with a new meds group and counseling that was invaluable in turning around severe depression, despair, high anxiety and insomnia. Within a couple of sessions, 6vweeks apart, I was already feeling so much improvement I couldn't believe it. I had been on Lorazapam for 18 years, yet within a couple more sessions, I was able to successfully cut down the quantity and dosage of Clonazapam I was switched to, then easily stop them. He is keenly insightful and brilliant.

This was the most disappointing experience I have ever had at a medical office. As a mental health patient I expect to be treated with the same respect as any healthy person would be but insead I recieved a patronizing attitude and disrespectful demeanor. He should be out of business. Do yourself a favor and actually see a doctor. Do not go here.
