I need to find this doctor again. I hated that she left the practice because i have seen so many docs and she is hands down the best.

Dr. Tacata saved me from a severe depression several years ago. I have been looking for her and would really like to know if she is ever going to be practicing again. I have never had such a knowledgeable and caring doctor. Does anybody know where she is?

I loved loved Dr. Tacata. She was the best psychiatrist I have ever been to hands down. She was way beyond caring and she was easy to feel comfortable around. I miss her so much. I hope she someday comes back to practice psychiatry :(

Thank you for getting me on the right track. I have met with numerous psychiatrists, and she is wonderful. She listens closely, makes eye contact (which is hard to come by), and is overall very friendly and personable. So happy to have met her. I feel balanced for the first time in a long time. Thanks!!
