I see Abinishe for anxiety, fatigue and depression. I have found him to be very well informed and warm. He values my input and I do not fell talked down to or judged. I am also a medical professional and would highly recommend him to any of my patients.

My experience with Dr. Abanishe has been nothing short of great! He is someone that is genuinely concerned with the health of his patient. He does not over prescribe and he has even reduced the amount of meds that I need to take. Trust me, he is great at what he does.

My experience with Dr Abanishe was terrible. He behaved in an unprofessional manner. He prescribed medications NOT indicated for my symptoms. He would discontinue a medication and then prescribe the same EXACT med under a different name. When i asked him why he was prescribing a med that was causing my condition to worsen and cause additional symptoms, he told me to find a new psychiatrist which I thankfully did just that.
