I've had a very positive experience with Dr. Ivantu. He really listens, explains things clearly, and has made me feel supported throughout the process. His approach is thorough and tailored, and I felt that he genuinely cared about finding the right treatment plan for me. The whole experience was professional, compassionate, and reassuring.

Dr. Stefan Ivantu's understanding of my condition and treatment has been life changing. I was able to understand so much more of why I behaved the way that I do, why I feel the way I do, and it helped bring so much relief to me that my symptoms were not a character or personality defect but an actual medical condition that was treatable. His advice and treatment has helped every area of my life - even areas that I had never thought would be helped. I would definitely recommend a consultation with Dr. Stefan if you think or suspect you have ADHD.

Dr Ivantu and his practice has been extremely helpful for navigating mental health, identifying conditions and providing medical support and curating a game plan with me to accomplish my goals and drastically improve my overall mental health and mental clarity in a short amount of time. Every session was conducted professionally and with an utmost competence & confidence which is extremely rare to find today.Attending and scheduling sessions was simple and easy. I would recommend him to anyone who struggles with attention, focus, or having constant overactive or dissonant thoughts which may be more distracting and debilitating than helpful. The changes in my peace and clarity experienced as a result of working with this practice are invaluable to me.
