Patients appreciate
Dr. Louis Gamino receives overwhelmingly positive feedback from patients who consistently praise his compassionate, caring, and professional approach to mental health care. Patients frequently describe him as an excellent listener who makes them feel comfortable and at ease during sessions, with many noting they feel more relaxed and candid with him than with previous providers. His expertise is repeatedly highlighted, particularly in grief therapy, with multiple patients crediting him with helping them through the loss of loved ones. Patients emphasize his patience, understanding, and genuine care for their wellbeing, with several describing him as "the best" therapist or psychologist they have ever had. His professional yet personable demeanor is valued, as he guides patients through solutions without being directive, encouraging them to be active participants in their therapy. Long-term patients, some seeing him for over a decade or even twenty years, express deep gratitude for his consistent support and life-changing impact.
Patients also share
Very few areas for improvement emerge from the reviews. One patient mentioned not always understanding Dr. Gamino's train of thought, though they still rated him positively and appreciated his listening skills. Another patient noted that their therapeutic work is "a work in progress," though this appears to reflect the nature of the therapeutic process rather than a criticism of the provider. These minor comments represent isolated feedback in an otherwise exceptionally positive collection of reviews.
