Dr. Stanford is the best mental health professional I have ever seen for treatment in the course of 40 years. He quickly determined the correct diagnosis for my conditions and prescribed the exact medications needed for treatment. No other psychiatrist, psychologist, or LCSW had ever provided the proper diagnosis and treatment. I had read that some believe he is a medication genius but he is also a caring and empathic person as well. The finest all around.

My experience with Dr. Stanford over the last few years has always been very positive and helpful to me. He listens, asks questions and collaborates with the patient. I feel much better today and know I can rely on the Doctor to help me.

Dr. Stanford is a highly educated and knowledgeable psychiatrist who is extremely helpful, supportive and skillful in controlling panic, anxiety and depression. I would gladly and have recommended him to others and I think he is one of the most compassionate and supportive psychiatrists in the Bay Area, and makes every effort to spend time with his patients and accommodate their schedules. Four stars and highly recommended.

Dr. Stanford is caring and intuitive and has a quiet gift for listening. He doesn't medicate or overmedicate and prefers to use a light touch for those of us who do need meds. He helped me through a panic/depressive time period that had been largely caused by my being overmedicated by my previous MD. I highly recommend Dr. Stanford
