What do Dr. Smith’s patients say about him?
“I met Dr. Smith during a rough patch I was experiencing a few years ago. He guided me skillfully through that time, and he remains my regular psychiatrist today. Dr. Smith is as kind and thoughtful as he is razor-sharp. I learned early on to trust his insights, both in terms of the way I approach the world as well as any changes to my meds regimen. I’m always amazed that Dr. Smith remembers some tiny detail we discussed weeks or months ago. He takes those small details and somehow always ties them to larger themes and patterns in my life and I never see it coming but wow does it make sense when he does it. Having someone so good at what he does have such an accurate pulse on me, my life, my behavior, my goals, etc…I always leave our sessions with more clarity about the world around me, more understanding of what I need to do and how I’m behaving, and, more often these days, more excitement about what’s ahead. If you’re still looking for a good psych, do yourself a favor a give Dr. Smith a ring.”

“I highly recommend Kyle Smith’s practice & professionalism. I was in a time crunch to find a psychiatrist because I was experiencing a sudden onset of mental health symptoms as a result of a bad reaction to prescribed medication. As someone who has never needed to seek out psychiatry services before, it was a scary & daunting process to find a provider, especially since other local & online providers I contacted had 2+ week waits for appointments, but I am so glad my Google search for psychiatrists in Los Feliz led me to Kyle. I contacted him using the form on his website and he got back to me within a few business hours via both phone & email. He took the time to listen to my symptoms on the phone, gave his professional opinion, and did not push me to make an appointment. I was hesitant to shell out the upfront cost for a new patient evaluation (billing through my insurance was not an option) so I sat on it a few days but ultimately came in 2 days later for an appointment. I am so glad I did, as I strongly believe that the combination of talking through my symptoms with him and the medication he was able to prescribe me saved my life. Afterwards, he was quick to provide me with a Superbill (official bill with codes/details required for claims processing) to submit to my insurance for reimbursement. While I hope that I won’t need further psychiatry services, I am relieved to know that I have a phenomenal (& LGBTQ+ friendly, which was important to me) one on hand.

“I’ve been with Dr. Smith for almost 4 years. After 2 psych hospitalizations, it was challenging for me to find a psychiatrist that I not only trusted, but liked as a person. He is so so knowledgeable, kind and funny (when needed, which I love!) I clicked with his personality & demeanor. He is like my smartest friend- I can ask & say anything, and he goes above & beyond to help find answers and follow up. I am stable & happier than I have been in a long time. Really grateful. Also, appreciate no ‘assistant’ or receptionist—contact with Dr. Smith is always direct.”

“Dr. Smith is smart, thorough, understanding, and non-judgmental. After struggling for years, and dealing with so many terrible psychiatrists, I'm immensely grateful to have found him.”

“When I began working with Kyle, I was struggling with significant depression and PTSD as well as adjusting to a new city and new job. He couldn't have been more supportive both in terms of medication management (he got me on a combination of meds that worked more effectively than any of the trial and error I'd experienced in the past) and as a therapist. He's accessible, easy to talk to, effectively communicates treatment goals, and is great at using humor when confronting difficult subjects (and he's helped me work through some of the more difficult issues of my life). I've seen a few psychiatrists over the years, and I couldn't be happier that I found Kyle, who's been the best fit with whom I've worked. He has my strongest recommendation.”
