The majority of reviewers describe Dr. Abeya as a calm, non-judgmental listener who takes time with patients and develops personalised treatment plans, with multiple people reporting meaningful improvement in conditions including anxiety, depression, OCD, bipolar disorder, and ADHD. However, the reviews are mixed: two reviewers gave one star, with one describing months of unanswered emails when trying to follow up on medication, and another (reviewing Dr. Abeya under her full name Dr. Himalee Abeya) describing being dismissed and told to manage on their own. Practical limitations noted by more than one reviewer include wait times of three or more months for appointments and a receptionist described as unwelcoming.
