The best psychiatrist I have ever worked with and I've worked with them all, including top Drs in many cities from New England to the tri-state area to the mid-Atlantic. The most impressive thing about Dr. Temple is that she is willing to treat tricky conditions seriously and aggressively. She is open to trying second- and third-line treatments as well as innovative strategies when the conventional methods have failed. Unlike many doctors in this field, she takes patients' concerns very seriously, from the urgency of the illness to the unpleasantness of side effects. Dr. Temple stays up-to date on the latest research and approaches. She is extremely caring and generous with her time but also very serious and practical. Teresa, the receptionist, is lovely. This practice is truly outstanding for those with complicated and frustrating mood disorders...(Vitals.com)

When you reach the office of Dr. Temple you have won the lottery. She is the best in the business in an area that has more psychiatrists than Beverly Hills...Dr. Temple (has) provided the help that changed my life and I trust her judgment absolutely...The breadth and depth of her knowledge is exceeded only by the compassionate creativity with which she applies it. Suggestions and decisions are based on hard science and long experience. Her respect for the individual patient requires attunement, reflection and imagination. My treatment has included various medications, talk, consulting colleagues and more. I have come to believe her commitment to me has been more healing than any medication. An essential part of Dr. Temple's excellence is the seamless operation of her practice. Teresa makes this possible. She juggles competing tasks with such grace and sincere kindness, you feel like the only patient of the day...They make a stellar team. I am a different person today because of (Dr.)Temple's help and the world is a more comfortable place.

My life had become a shattered pane of glass. Dr. Temple helped me put it back together into one clear view. Working with her as my psychotherapist as well as psychiatrist, I gained important insight that not only helped me heal from a terrible trauma, but also helped to improve and deepen my relationship with my spouse. Dr. Temple’s knowledge is vast in regard to both the medical aspect of mental health as well as insightful talk therapy. She is fun and creative and compassionate. She has a way of bringing clarity to the mind. I trust her completely. I’ve had experiences with other psychiatrists and they would all do well to take some instruction from her. She is unique and I am so grateful.

Dr. Temple has treated me for many years and I am very thankful to her for helping me. She is an exceptional physician in her field of psychiatry. While many well-intended family doctors will treat patients for depression, anxiety and other related disorders, they cannot offer the expertise and dedication that Dr. Temple gives to her patients. Additionally, it is not uncommon to come across doctors including psychiatrists who will just dispense drugs without much thought and the necessary follow up. This is not the case here. Dr. Temple is extremely knowledgeable about all types of treatments and will keep trying different medications until you are feeling better. She will also make suggestions regarding nutritional supplements, books to read, or other therapeutic approaches which may be of benefit to you. Finally, Dr. Temple takes the time to get to know you personally as well as your particular life circumstances. She is kind, caring and empathic. These qualities are life savers when you may already be feeling vulnerable, misunderstood and sad. (Vitals.com)

Above and Beyond. Dr. Temple is simply put the finest Psychiatrist I have ever encountered. She gets to know you as a person. Her diagnostic abilities are unparalleled, in part  because she listens and she pays attention...She is brilliant with a talent for diagnostics and follow-up. (Vitals.com)

WONDERFUL DOCTOR! I have been to a few therapist(s) in my lifetime and Dr. Temple is probably the best I have seen. She got me right away and has really changed my life. She has helped me work through many of my problems. She has been a blessing. (Vitals.com)

Caring, Understanding, Down to Earth and Extremely Helpful. As a person, Dr. Temple is extremely caring and she genuinely sympathizes with the situation that her patients are in. There is a lot to be said about a doctor who understands the disorders... she's treating. For example, from day 1, I felt comfortable speaking with her about the topics that most of us would keep to ourselves, knowing that when I was finished we would use the information to tailor the best solution for me. As a professional, Dr. Temple is able to explain the treatments and the medications that she prescribes at a level that is both concise and understandable. She takes a very broad approach to treatment and uses both medications and alternatives to treat her patients. Overall, Dr. Temple is the best psychiatrist that I have used, and thanks to her help my ADD has become more of an afterthought. I will definitely continue using Dr. Temple in the future and I highly recommend that you do the same. (Vitals.com)

Best psychiatrist. Dr. Temple tells you like it is in a very kind caring way. She is always honest and truly wants to help me change my life. I honestly always leave her office feeling like we reached another answer to a problem and she helps me find ways to change. She is such a wonderful doctor I can not say enough good things about her...no one has helped me as much as she has in such a short period of time. (Vitals.com)

Dr. Temple is the best therapist I have seen in 30 years and I have seen many. She gets to the point. I have never felt like I have wasted my time seeing her. She approached my problems with medication and therapy and has helped me finally to come to terms with who I really am. I will always be so thankful to her. I really feel God sent her to me. FINALLY! (Vitals.com)

This may sound trite, but she really listens and cares about your story, not just prescribing. She makes it her business to prescribe the right meds, as appropriate. (Vitals.com)

Goes the extra mile. Unlike many docs, Dr. Temple is willing to try novel treatments and combinations. She will not make you spend months on a single drug trying to give it time to "kick in." She will not force you to stay on drugs that aren't working or are giving you unbearable side effects. She knows the latest research about promising new treatments and is willing to try them with patients when first- and second-line drugs fail. Anyone who has a difficult psychiatric case will definitely appreciate her innovative attitude and respect for the patient's own sense of urgency. She is also very kind, and constantly gives extra time to her patients, even after hours. She will always find a way to fit you in if you need to see her urgently. Her office staff is also extremely kind and professional. Dr. Temple is the best, most committed psychiatrist I have ever worked with. (Vitals.com)

Outstanding Doctor. Dr. Temple is such an understanding doctor I can tell her ANYTHING I never feel judged by her. She knows so much about medication and what helps me. Going to see her is never a waste of time. I always leave my session feeling I have learned something new about myself. I AM SO THANKFUL FOR DR. TEMPLE!  (Vitals.com)
