Clients reviews about Greater Heights Holistic Psychiatry

My daughter has been seeing Dr. Dharmendra Kumar for a few months. Today she asked me to sit in with her. We started out with his wife, and they switched her to Dr. Kumar at one point and I was disappointed. But, after meeting with him, I must say, I wholeheartedly approve. He has a sense of humor and a caring that came across throughout the visit. He asked questions, many questions and he respectfully took my observations into account, while obviously maintaining her primary position as the patient. He was able to speak plainly with her about what needed to change, but did so in an understanding way and with leeway. He is willing to communicate with her other providers. When we got off the call, I laughed and said, “I like him!!” ~ Renee' A

I have been seeing Dr Kumar and the physicians at Greater Heights Holistic psychology for years and highly recommend it. Dr Kumar has gone above and beyond to support me and offer me different options for treatment. He really cares and takes the extra effort for his patients, even communicating after hours to make sure I am getting the support that I need. When I experienced an emergency he responded right away and helped me, which was beyond any care I've received in the past. The clinic and physicians have taken the time to get to know me, my current situation, and my concerns. This is not the typical psychiatric office that just gives you a prescription. The physicians at the practice all care deeply and go above and beyond. Describing the practice as holistic is truly accurate. ~ Roxie R

My mom has been a patient of Dr. Kumar's for several years. As her caregiver, I accompany her to her appointments. I appreciate the time and genuine care Dr. Kumar gives her. He demonstrates patience with her and gives practical advice, but more importantly, he is a good listener. He never rushes her and always takes the time for any input I may have. When it comes to medication changes, he always considers what me and my mom have to say, and makes decisions as a team member, in order to provide the best results with the least amount of medication as possible. It is so refreshing for a doctor to respect the opinions and concerns of their patients and their caregivers. And as an added plus, Dr. Kumar has a good sense of humor. I'd highly recommend him to anyone looking for a good psychiatrist. ~ Shara

My daughter is 38 years old. I’m her advocate in reference to assisting with her Mental Health. Dr. Kumar & his staff are extremely, professional, patient, helpful, concerned, skillful, knowledgeable & kind. Dr. Kumar, has assisted me with the best medication modification, for my daughter, due to additional other diagnosis. He is very thorough, detailed & isn’t rushing our visit. He allow me to ask questions & inform him of any concerns, I may have. I’m forever grateful, thankful & appreciative for Dr. Kumar & his Staff. I’ve been involved with many Physicians for over 40 plus years. Dr. Kumar & his Staff are EXCEPTIONALLY, better than most Physicians, I’ve visited! #FOREVER THANKFUL ~ Denise B

As an active patient with Dr. Kumar, I have had nothing but good experiences. He was able to explain my treatment in a very digestible way and he always ensures that I am comfortable with moving forward with any changes to treatment. He prescribes what he believes is best for his patients, and I trust his medical expertise. He offers all sorts of ways to have your appointment through his office which is quite convenient with my schedule. I do not have a single bad thing to say about his practice, and have seen myself continue to improve as my treatment continues. As a person who was quite adverse to starting treatment, he was very reassuring and supportive with all of my questions and concerns. I highly suggest hearing out his plans for treatment if you are ever on the fence with getting medicinal help. ~ Jake T

So admittedly before meeting with Dr. Kumar and his assistant, Lauren, my life was more disorganized, even hectic almost chaotic on occasion. But since having met with and talked with Dr. K and L, and getting back on my previous Rx medication regimen (minimal dosage was increased slightly) things have improved SIGNIFICANTLY. Both Dr. Kumar and Lauren are clearly knowledgeable and experienced in their field, they are both incredibly compassionate, caring and supportive. Their intervention and help has made daily life considerably more manageable and resultantly more pleasant. Life was good before, better now. Thank you, Dr. Kumar and Lauren, both - sincerely and genuinely. ~ Triumph I

"I've been really happy with my psychiatrist, Dr. Kumar, at Greater Heights Holistic Psychiatry. He's an incredibly compassionate Doctor with top-tier bedside/webside manner. Dr. Kumar is very attentive and really listens to understand. He customizes care to my needs and ensures that I'm on a path of success in my mental well-being. He goes above and beyond for his clients, and it shows. I would definitely recommend Dr. Kumar to anyone looking for a kind and effective psychiatrist. He has always given me hope throughout some of the worst moments in my life and has never given up on me. I am so glad to have met him and his wonderful staff at his clinic!" ~ Arlet O

For most of my life I had been living in a constant state of panic. Finally I came to the realization that I was not going to be able to beat my anxiety alone. Searching for help I found Dr. Kumar and decided to reach out and inquire whether he would be able to assist me in gaining insight on how to beat the feelings that had been wearing me down for years. It has been less than a month and I can wholeheartedly say that the decision to pursue his assistance has changed my life! From his office staff's compassionate and speedy responses and interactions to his very easygoing and empathetic demeanor, I feel more like a human being and less like an "appointment time" or just a "number". He and his staff are wonderful and I would definitely recommend their care to anyone seeking to forge a fulfilling life beyond what might be troubling them. Thank you Dr. Kumar and the staff at Holistic Psychiatry Houston. ~ Andrew G

Finding the right doctor who listens, makes decisions to help but not over or underprescribe can be a difficult task. After a previous attempt ended up more trouble than it was worth, and a long consideration (3+ years) I decided to make another move towards improving my symptoms. Dr. Kumar was highly recommended. After a few appointments, my mood is MUCH better, and luckily I’ve no side effects this time. Dr. Kumar has been instrumental in carefully considering my background and symptoms, and began a conservative approach to prescription therapy, bolstered by patient education, which is reassuring. He is easy to talk with, and our telehealth appointments are very convenient (my high stress job does not provide much time flexibility, so this is crucial to my ability to maintain progress). I am grateful for the kindness and supportive attitude of his office staff as well. If you need help, I recommend Dr Kumar wholeheartedly. ~ Jennifer W

Since last year our child has seen a couple of psychiatrists before we finally found Dr. Kumar. How grateful I am! From the very first session, Dr. Kumar made us very comfortable and felt understood. He is incredibly knowledgeable, compassionate, and above all, truly cares about his patients. Dr. Kumar always listens attentively and provides thoughtful insights. He helps us with a calm and empathetic approach. We always feel we are in good hands with Dr. Kumar. Our child has made significant progress under Dr. Kumar's care, and we are truly grateful for that. I highly recommend Dr. Kumar to anyone in need of psychiatric support. ~ Catherine K

A little over a year ago I had depression, anxiety and I was confused with what to do with my life. As an Uber driver I got a call to take Dr. Kumar to his clinic and he notice how not in shape I was. Gave me his card and took me a while to reach to him but it has been one of the best decisions I have ever made. He is one of the best doctors I have come across. He has teach me to know me better and how to make decisions to keep me happy and smiling. I know God put him in my path for a reason. I can honestly say he has change my life for the better !! ~ MaryPaz C

We met Dr. Dhamendra Kumar when my wife almost lost a hope for survivor due to the heavy depression and stage four cancer. At the time being her prescription antidepressants did not work at all and even worse: they were cause for severe allergy. On the first visit Dr Kumar made changes to her current list of medications, and added new one. In several days after that our life changed and my wife depression was half gone. She started doing exercises, regular home work, and doing better and better thanks to Dr Kumar, Lauren Walker, and all guys of this great place. ~ DGP

I just had my first appointment with the Physicians Assistant, Lauren Walker, and I was pleased with my experience. First of all, they were able to get me scheduled for an appointment very quickly. I was being told by other psychiatric offices that I would have to wait months before seeing someone. During my visit, she was so thorough with helping to understand the state of my anxiety and depression. I could sense her genuine concern when I explained my struggles, and she even helped me to understand the terminology she was using to diagnose me. I was able to receive a low dose anti anxiety medication that same day because it was necessary in my case. Obviously I will need to see her for several follow ups before we find what works best for me, but I was so impressed with my experience. It's nice to speak with someone who listens and cares. I'm grateful to have found this practice to help with my needs, and I highly recommend Lauren Walker. ~ Alyssa J

Wow. I've just read through some of these negative reviews. I have had a great experience with Dr. Kumar & his staff. And I'm not being paid to say it! Perhaps a point that may be missing or that others can find frustrating is that they take an actual holistic approach & take time to get to know first. They talk about life style changes, your health & your sleep patterns. If you want someone to throw pills at you then this is not the place for you. If you want a team to sit down with you & help you figure things out from multiple angles then I highly recommend them. ~ Jessica R

I have had great experiences with Dr Kumar and the team at Greater Heights Holistic Psychiatry. Dr. Kumar is not only extremely knowledgeable but also very personable, bringing some humor into the sessions which really does make the experience much more comfortable. The office staff is always friendly and professional and has a seamless integration with technology making scheduling, communication, and medication refills easy. I highly recommend Greater Heights Holistic Psychiatry if you are looking for a practice that truly does put their patients first. ~ Salty B

The service that I receive from Dr. Dharmendra Kumar is excellent. Dr. Kumar and his staff are friendly and responsive. Dr. Kumar is very understanding and listens to your concerns, questions, and personal circumstances. I enjoy speaking with him at every appointment. He has a great ability to connect with you and provide holistic yet simple feedback. Additionally, the patient portal is very useful and convenient. I’m glad I chose Greater Heights Holistic Psychiatry / Dr. Kumar for my mental health needs! ~ Albert G

I connected with Dr. Kumar through the social worker at TIRR/Memorial Hermann. I had had several strokes and needed a psychiatrist who had professional knowledge and experience in treating patients who had had strokes. I couldn’t be happier. Dr. Kumar is very personable and really listens to what you’ve got to say. I had some mild trepidation before our first meeting because I wasn’t sure about the cultural differences. I needn’t have worried. Dr. Kumar is very professional and knows how to treat post-stroke depression. ~ Liz M

I am in great hands! They genuinely care about how I’m doing. Even in emergency situations I can count on them. I’m a patient of Reagan Carroll and she is amazing! She is consistent, caring, knowledgeable and kind. But even when faced with a dire situation while she was out, Dr. Kumar stepped in and was just as comforting, knowledgeable and reassuring. I will continue to trust them on my mental health journey. They have been very understanding of my situation even if I have to miss an appointment. I def recommend, feels like a family ~ Gabrielle T

I see many reviews here that say pretty much exactly what I would say about Dr. Kumar. He is knowledgeable, compassionate and very thorough, and best of all, he really listens when you voice any concerns. My last psychiatrist did not take the time to really get to know me, and my appointments felt like a revolving door with an Rx. My experience here has been much different, and I am so glad that I switched doctors. The office staff are wonderful as well, friendly and helpful when I have any questions. ~ Jennifer F

Dr. Kumar has been an incredible support over the past year. He is thoughtful, informative, compassionate, and genuinely takes the time to listen and help guide you toward better overall well-being. His approach feels both professional and human which is rare to find. I also appreciate that he brings warmth and humor into conversations while still being knowledgeable and insightful. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a doctor who truly cares about helping people improve their mental and personal health in a balanced, respectful way. ~ Katie

GHHP is a wonderful practice that encourages the alignment of mind, body, and spirit. Raegan Whittaker is a wonderful, kind, and approachable professional. She’s patient, an active listener and talks through treatment plans with care and concern. The team in the front office are terrific. They answers all questions, route inquiries, and handle all information with amazing customer service. GHHP is a trusted healthcare provider who meets patients where they are and provides a compassionate care environment. ~ Chelsey C

Dr. Kumar is a great psychiatrist and an even better person. He genuinely cares about his patients and their families and wants to see them do better. He’s been a tremendous help with my mother, who has been a patient of his for the last couple of years. Dr. Kumar has helped me and my brothers better understand her condition and navigate through these difficult times. I would highly recommend him to anyone who is in search of a caring and passionate psychiatrist. ~ Mike V

I have had such a positive experience Doctor Kumar. I was able to quickly get an appointment and feel like I get his full attention each time I see him despite doing telemedicine appointments. He has a great sense of humor which put me at ease and I feel comfortable sharing with him. He is realistic and measured in his treatment approaches - he explains everything to me in a way I can understand and has worked closely with me in my first few months seeing him. ~ Lisa H
