Patrick Cook recognized my symptoms and new exactly what to do to get me back on track. He is very easy to talk to and makes me feel comfortable.

Patrick is easy to talk to and understands that no one medication works the same for every person.  Choosing Patrick has been the best decision for my medication management needs.  I’m looking forward to continuing with him for as long as possible. 

Patrick is super solution oriented. He uses technique but blends experience with human interaction. I definitely recommend Patrick.

Patrick is respectful and always has a good intention of making a difference to feel better after talking with him. Thoughtful and kind. Thank you 

Patrick is an amazing Nurse Practitioner. He's warm, caring, funny, and extremely intelligent. Highly recommend!

Right from the start, Dr. Crook was very polite and kind, always making jokes to help lighten the mood of our session. He was very helpful in providing a list of medications that could help me and helped me choose the best one for me. I would recommend him to anyone who needs assistance finding the right medication to help them in their life and if they want a smile on their face because of his kindness!

Wonder practitioner and wholesome person. He is a great listener and intelligent person as well. He was delightful to get along with and took all of my issues seriously. It was just what I needed! Thank you!

Thank you to Patrick for being the first doctor to take my mental health seriously. From the moment I got on the call, I felt like I was the priority and a partner in my mental health journey. Thank you for an amazing first impression and I can't wait to keep seeing Patrick every month.

Patrick is such a a warm and kind person. He cares about his patients and is extremely knowledgeable.  He's also very funny and a joy to talk to. I highly recommend him as a provider! 

He listens well and gives good feedback, easy to talk to.

I was nervous for my first time speaking on my mental health, but Patrick was very reassuring and explained everything I had a question or apprehension about. Thank you!

Listens to my symptoms, and takes me seriously. Adjust medications based on results and personal need. Simple and effective.

I was completely nervous for my first appointment.
After completing the first session I felt relief.
Patrick is down to earth, funny, easy to talk to.

I went through a few therapists on Grow Therapy, and thought I would never find a “normal” therapist on this site.  But, I gave it one last chance, and was surprised to engage in a “normal” relationship with a “normal” therapist who doesn’t have more problems than me.   I like Patrick’s presence & demeanor, and I am grateful to have a therapist who truly cares about my well being.  

He is empowering, supportive, nonjudgmental.   He made me at ease at our first session, I opened and shared more than I expected, great listener.  Highly recommend.  

Very nice and polite also straight to the point! 

He was very kind and willing to listen. He was patient with me and willing to talk through various solutions. 

He listened to me and recommended a treatment option that I think will really help me out. 

Exactly what I needed, I feel like this guy was exactly what I needed at my darkest hour. Highly recommend!

Patrick is a caring and knowledgeable provider. He listens attentively and works with me to understand the underlying challenges I'm facing and also address the presenting symptoms. I would 10/10 recommend any of my friends or family to see Patrick for care. 

For years I have searched for someone who actually listened to me and understood what I was concerned about Patrick did just that. He was helpful and understanding. Couldn’t ask for a better provider!! Thank you so much.

Amazing. I’ve never felt more comfortable seeking help like I have today. This is a professional relationship I want to keep for my health; and because of the sincerity and care I feel like I receive.

Always a pleasure. Gets straight to the point and is very punctual.

I was expecting a monotone voice and uninviting personality. Instead I was pleasantly surprised Patrick genuinely cares and wanted to get me the proper care I needed. He was very thorough, informative and had a great humorous personality..all traits I look for in a therapist. Definitely enjoyed my session and will continue therapy with him.

I booked with Patrick because I wanted some guidance on medication - he seemed very knowledgeable about the different medicines on the market for anxiety/depression and gave a great recommendation that I’m excited to try. 

I felt comfortable and hopeful.  It has been a struggle lately for me, but Patrick's demeanor and candor was refreshing and there frankly should be more professionals that have a similar character. 

He is such a great listener. Funny is actually nice to have somebody you feel comfortable talking to.

Very pleased with my provider. He does not rush appointments and takes his time with me each visit.
