    Update: I just want to say that I have been receiving care since October 2025 with Dr. Arafat And I just got done with another appointment 05/28/2026 and he is very knowledgeable, Considerate and willing to listen to all of your problems and needs. He is a psychiatrist that I feel really cares about his patients and what they are going through. I am so glad that we crossed paths. I feel safe trusting his recommendations. 10/30/2025 I have searched for so many years to find exactly what I was looking for in a psychiatrist because I am very funny about taking random medications, Especially from psychiatrist that don’t want to hear what you’re saying or take into consideration how well you know your body and just put you on any type of meditation. I researched a lot of places looking for a virtual psychiatrist, I read a lot of reviews on the psychiatrists at Animo Sano Psychiatry And came across a few people that mentioned Dr. Amar Arafat and gave him really good reviews, and I am here to do the same. I am so happy that I took a chance on Choosing him as my psychiatrist. Dr. Arafat is very professional, calm, respectful, Very meticulous and detail oriented And I don’t feel like he just hears me, I truly feel like he is listening to me just as well as I’m listening to him. He does thorough research and tries very hard to match medication up to your specific needs. I am very pleased with the Dr.’s bedside mannerism and the care that he provides. I’m sure there are other great doctors but if you want the one that truly cares, listens and that you can trust, Please give him a chance. Thank you Dr. Arafat :)

    Excellent communication prior to the appointment and my initial evaluation was top notch. Hannah Harper really took her time to get to know me. I never felt rushed and she explained so many things in great detail, which was appreciated! No regrets!

    We’ve been trying to get in somewhere for my son who was diagnosed with adhd when we lived in GA. Using the telehealth platform allowed us to have a thorough visit (1hr15minutes) with a great doctor and we will continue to see her for care! Highly recommend GIZZI, KIANA MARIE!

    This place has been absolutely amazing! Every employee I’ve been in contact with is extremely willing to help. My psychiatrist listens to me and asks questions that give her the insight she needs to provide care. I leave every session feeling heard and I know that I can reach out anytime and receive help if needed.

    I lovee my provider Whitney Kost. She the best and I would recommend all my friends to see her. She has helped me with my ADHD, depression/SI, and anxiety. Scheduling is also very easy on the website. Thank you truly Whitney if you see this!
