Dr Cifuentes is without a doubt the best psychiatrist in Charleston, SC. Once you start with him you will not want to ever see anyone else. I have been a patient of his for at least five years or probably more. Highly recommended.

Dr. Cifuentes is amazing. He cuts right to the chase. His bedside manner is exceptional. He is compassionate, and though I am 20 some years older than he is, he understands, as if he is my age.

I have a serious mental illness and have relied on DR Cifuentes for several years. It is also very convenient and wonderful that he does rounds at the psychiatric hospital that I go to. I have tried several Doctors in town and I believe he is probably absolutely the best in town for patients suffering from a severe psychiatric disorder such as schizophrenia or schizoaffective disorder. Highly reccommended!

I have experienced for a lot of times Dr. CiFientes services as a Psychiatrist. He is an excellent doctor I can recommend to anybody. He is very professional, honest, patience, respectful, knowledgeable. For him, patients by my experience, matter as human beings and not as medical insurances objects, copayments as money. I wish I could find doctors like him in other specialties like family doctors, dentists, etc... Dr. CiFuentes, deserves more than five stars.

Dr. C is an excellent psychiatrist. He is knowledgeable and has a great "bedside" manner. His assistant, Drodney, has responded to my between appointment needs in a timely and effective manner. I highly recommend this doctor. Practice is now located on Tobias Gadson Road, Charleston.
