Gulfside Behavioral Care NP, Inc.

“Catherine McDermott has truly made a world of difference in my father’s Alzheimer’s care. Her expertise in this field is exceptional, and her guidance, compassion, and deep understanding of behavioral health have been invaluable to our family. Navigating Alzheimer’s is overwhelming, but Catherine brings clarity, reassurance, and thoughtful solutions during some of the most difficult moments. I honestly don’t know what I would do without her support and knowledge. We are incredibly grateful for Catherine and highly recommend her to any family needing expert, compassionate care for a loved one with Alzheimer’s.”

“Catherine McDermott of Gulfside Behavioral Care is a miracle worker who I wish I found years earlier. Her care of my mother has made it possible to keep my mother home (with family caregivers) rather than having to admit her to a nursing home. Catherine asked me to trust her with difficult medication changes, explained the process thoroughly, and was always readily available for necessary consultations and further changes. My mom's behavior, which was increasingly unbearable and borderline dangerous, is now cooperative enough in order for us to care for her. I wasn't sure how much longer I could continue to care for my mother, but trusting Catherine has made it possible to do so and was the best decision I have made. I am forever grateful for her excellent care and I know she will be there as my mom's disease progresses. Thank you Catherine for saving my sanity.”

“Catherine was invaluable to our family during the progression of my grandfather’s dementia and ultimate death. She helped to navigate devastating family drama (above & beyond her call of duty), manage my grandfather’s medication appropriately, routinely visited to make sure the facility he was in was taking proper care of him, and has been a tremendous support to us after his recent passing. I can not say enough good things about this practice and her dedication & compassion for not only her patients, but their families too.”

“Catherine McDermott changed the last few years of my mother in law’s life . She took the time to analyze her medications, got to know my mother in law, and treated her with the utmost professionalism and caring that we could have ever asked for... dementia is a terrible way to end a life but Dr McDermott made it so much more bearable!”
