He’s genuinely kind and compassionate. He’s not the typical pill-pusher psychiatrist that will only see you for five minutes and shoo you out of his office once you start talking about any of your issues. I’ve had multiple talk therapy sessions with him, some close to an hour, and he listened patiently. He asks for my input on my treatment and whether or not I believe my symptoms align with my diagnoses. This is important to me because my other past psychiatrists never seemed to care about *my* own input, but Dr Niezer made sure to listen to me. He’s also quick at communicating and responding to messages sent through MyChart. I’m very grateful that I have Dr. Niezer as my doctor!

He is a great doctor i have been seeing he for years, he has always took the time to listen to my concerns(he never watched a clock or as i refer to is"clock watching doctors") cause all other doctors seems or as it felt to me that all the doctors i had seen they all seemed like they had a built it clock in their head and it's like when ur time is about up they try to push u out the door or their brain shuts down it's like they don't know u anymore, he has never done that to me EVER, i always looked forward to talk to him which made it a great & pleasant experience, plus he was always professional everytime i had a appointment with him, he also cared for all his patients i'm sure of that, and always spent the time to listen to me to no matter how many medications we went through he never once gave up, cause he would listen to my concerns & how i was feeling until he made a diagnosis for my condition that was holding me down, i could go on and on why he such a GREAT DOCTOR, so i know whoever he has for a patient they will always be cared for as like they was like one of his family member, anyway i have seen him for alot of years and built a trusting close relationship with Dr.Neiezer, as sad as it was i received a letter from him and saying he had to make a very difficult decision that he was moving on, to benefit him and his family in the future and i respect that for putting his family first, but i will miss him and i wish him and his family the very BEST in their new journey and in LIFE, i will miss him but i understand at the same time i'm sure all his patients and his office staff will be missing him also, i can speak for mtself i will miss him for sure and i also know it's going be hard for me to replace him, but as i said i understand & respect him for the very difficult decision you had to make and i'm sure i'm not the only one that feels this way as i do HE WILL BE MISSED, But i will say to him GOOD LUCK & i hope the very BEST for him and his family and i'm not going to say "good-bye", all i will say to him "I will see u later". THANK U DR. NIEZER for all u have helped me through some dark times i was going through in my life and helping to see a new perspective to life, u are literally a life save and i meant every word i said that's a PROMISE and u will be dearly missed!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!. THANK YOU FOR EVERYTHING!! & GOOD LUCK TO YOU & UR FAMILY GOD BLESS U & MAY GOD WATCH OVER U & UR FAMILY!! THANK YOU, Eric Q.
