Write ReviewPatient Experience with Dr. Bartlik
- Tim
Dr. Bartlik is an incredible physician. She takes a holistic approach to mental wellness and doesn't just prescribe pharmaceuticals. With her help, I was able to treat a severe and disabling anxiety and insomnia problem mostly through lifestyle and nutrition changes. She is also a very kind person and I always felt welcome and safe in appointments.
