Dr. Loveland really cares about her patients. She's knowledgeable, professional, and a great listener. She knows how to give constructive criticism. I've been seeing her for many years.

I had a Zoom appointment with Dr. Loveland in psychiatry.[...] And I cannot tell you how each time I see her, the wealth of experience and knowledge that she has from practicing medicine for however long it's been makes such a difference. And I've gotten the best care for a certain disorder that's been misdiagnosed for years. So anyway, thank you.

Dr. Loveland is one of the best psychiatrists that I've ever dealt with, and I think the staff does a pretty good job of keeping me informed, and she always knows everything that she needs to know to assist me, and give me the best care.

Doctor is well prepared for our zoom appt with her experience. Knows my history and builds treatment solidly upon that as we tackle the current issues where I am uncertain how to proceed successfully. Practical and inspiring a human being to keep on the best one can.
