Dr.Prinz is a very good doctor. As per a previous review like most of us he has a lot on his plate making some things a little unorganized. However, when you are with him one on one for help there is no better a person to have on your side. He is a great listener & support. He works with you to help thru the struggles & get back on track. Then he stays with you to stay on track. Not perfectly but none of us are. So, he’s the go to guy when you need help.

Dr. Prinz is very understanding and focused on working with the counselors on recovery. He takes time to get to know patients before prescribing medicine and follows up to make sure meds are helping. I had a very good experience with Dr. Prinz and highly recommend him!

Dr. Prinz is the best psychiatrist around. The most personable psychiatrist you will see. He had a long waiting list of patients who wanted to see him and I was honored. And he is there when you need him from 10-11 every night. Definitely a 5-star.

Dr Prinz is kind and compassionate . He is an excellent communicator. He has the ability to make one want to do everything to improve their life situation. I highly recommend him.

He & his staff don't have any compassion for their psych patients. If you can't pay your co-pay they'll cancel your next appointment. All they care about is their pockets. What happened to the Hippocratic Oath? It's all about the money!

Dr. Prinz is so busy doing so many things because he forgets to care for people. Do not go see him. You will get charged thousands of dollars and go in debt because all he does is tell you you need to be hospitalized and you need a million medications!

Unlike many docs, he is comfortable working collaboratively and can accommodate patients who prefer to guide sessions. He prefers extemporaneous interaction but accepts journaling, checklists, and charts as a basis for discussion. Is available for phone calls four nights a week and has evening appointments. Not sure if he is accepting new patients.

Dr. Prinz is the only psychiatrist I have ever liked. I adore him. He is very kind to me, never scolds me if I don't take my medications as prescribed, listens to my ideas, and is just a great human being. I highly recommend him!
