Wendy Hookman MD

“Dr. Hookman has fundamentally changed my life, and I'm incredibly grateful. She is everything one could want in a psychiatrist -- genuinely kind, smart, respectful, and generous with her time. She's also the rare provider whose knowledge bridges women's reproductive health across the life cycle + mental health. Dr. Hookman was thorough + patient in our initial consultation, and in our follow-up check-ins. She diagnosed an underlying condition, prescribed medication, and along the way offered clear explanations + answered all of my questions. She took the time to speak with my long-time, trusted therapist, who was impressed with Dr. Hookman's insights and 100% agreed with her diagnosis. And she clearly got things right -- the medication she prescribed has helped me return to my best self. Thank you, Dr. Hookman. I am lucky to have found you.”

““Healthy mother, healthy baby.” These words Dr. Hookman spoke to me at our initial intake meeting still resonate crystal clear 13 years later! She helped me navigate pregnancy while staying on medication important to my mental health. To say I am grateful is a understatement. Over that decade + she has seen me through many changes and the one constant is her expert medical advice combined with her sincere kindness and compassion to see me healthy. After seeing her for years for medical support, I have also transitioned to maintaining my health by using a therapist in her practice. It always makes me feel secure knowing Hookman is nearby when I need her. No question about that!”

“I cannot say enough good things about Dr. Wendy Hookman! She truly saved my life when I started seeing her 11 years ago and it is such a comfort to know she’s there for me. She is always available to help when needed and always makes you feel welcome. She makes it clear on day 1 that she is in your corner and continues to prove that over and over again year after year. I am more grateful than words can say to have found her and her practice those many moons ago!”

“After the birth of my first baby I suffered from terrible postpartum anxiety and depression. I cycled through several other psychiatrists who seemed to know nothing about PPD and were not at all helpful. Luckily a friend referred Dr. Wendy Hookman who saved me from the depths of my severe anxiety. Dr. Hookman was so confident and knowledgeable that she immediately put me at ease and comforted me. I felt so relieved that I was in good hands and that she knew exactly what to do. Over the next several weeks she guided me through therapy and medication, which not only resolved my anxiety, but helped me with other normal issues that come with new motherhood. Twenty two years later, Dr. Hookman is still an important person in my life. She is the calm voice of reason and constant support that has helped me through other challenging times. I highly recommend her, she is brilliant.”
