Dr. Anna Eirini Budayr, MD

She should stick to prescribing medications and not try to force talk therapy on her patients. I didn’t think she was helpful. She doesn’t get the hint when she’s not helping.

Outstanding caregiver. I failed my stress test on Weds was Admitted on Thurs for cardiac catheterization that afternoon. During the procedure she was able to talk to me & informed me she had found the blockage & was putting in a extra long stent. She went in through the arm.(YAY!) (I was 99% blocked) 2 hrs later I was done & back in my room & released nest day. I can't say enough about the great care she gave & the nurses @ FROEDTERT SOUTH ST. CATHERINE’S. Don't ignore chest pains.

Excellent, supportive doctor who makes time for patients

Dr. Budayr is amazing. She is compassionate yet realistic and down to earth. She has helped me tremendously and I cannot recommend her enough.

Fabulous doctor. Will pretty much do anything to help you, above and beyond a typical doctor. I think it's been 8 years working with her, even going back and forth and phone sessions while I was living in San Luis Obispo!

Dr Budayr has been my psychiatrist for a few years now and she is by far the best psych I've seen. I have moved a few hundred miles away from her office but still work with her for many reasons. The main thing is that she thinks outside the box. She is not just by the book and because she has researched many medications and different off-label uses she has helped me get through addictions which I never thought would be possible. I cannot stress this enough. She is willing to try medications that some doctors would not, and for someone with addiction and treatment-resistant depression this is key. She is also extremely nice and understanding. She is the one doctor I have been able to be completely honest with because I know she won't judge me.

Dr. Budayr is the rare doctor who goes above and beyond to make sure that her patients feel cared for and safe. Before I saw her, I had been to dozens of psychiatrists and tried about twenty different medications for my depression. It wasn't until I met Dr. Budayr, however, that I found a combination of anti-depressants that worked for me. She's thoughtful and willing to try different types of medications for people with treatment-resistant depression. As far as her character, I can only give her the highest rating. She has spent time on the phone with me when I needed it and not charged me for it and in general demonstrated that she truly cares about me; I am not just another "customer." I would recommend her to anyone truly suffering from depression or anxiety.
