What patients are saying

Hear from patients and families who found clarity, answers, and a path forward through Riverside Psychology.

“We had been waiting eight months at another practice. Riverside got us in within two weeks and gave us the clearest, most actionable report I've ever seen. It changed how our whole care team approached my father's treatment.”

Sarah M. Daughter of patient, Chicago

“I'd suspected ADHD for years but could never get a straight answer. Dr. Baldassarre's evaluation was thorough, the feedback session was unhurried, and for the first time I actually understood what was happening in my brain.”

James R. Patient, Oak Park

“After my stroke, I needed answers about what had changed cognitively. Dr. Baldassarre was compassionate and precise. The report helped me advocate for the right rehabilitation services—something I couldn't have done without it.”
