Dr. Fein is the absolute best. Super easy to talk to and a total professional.

She's a very sweet woman with a very approachable personality which is so important if your feeling anxious about sharing .. She made me feel so relaxed I burst into tears quite quickly which is so unlike me

Dr. Merrill is a wonderful doctor. Her treatment plan for me has been incredibly helpful. I highly recommend her; she is thorough, smart, and I always feel I can count on her.

My wife has met with Dr. Merrill on two occasions and appreciates the ease of getting an appointment at this practice, the comfort of the office, and the professionalism of the staff. They seem to really care about the well being of their patients, not simply writing prescriptions and sending people on their way. It's unfortunate that they do not accept insurance, but I think that's saying more about insurance companies and their difficult/complicated reimbursement processes. I'd recommend this practice in a heartbeat to anyone on the Westside/South Bay.

I feel so fortunate to have found Dr. Fein and look forward to working with her. She genuinely cares for my well being.

I. Love. Her. Honestly, it’s impossible to find a psychiatrist who isn’t cold, reserved and clinical. She’s warm, friendly, smart, intuitive and comforting. Her office staff is amazing – kind, helpful and accommodating. I can’t recommend her or her practice highly enough. Unfortunately with most great doctors – and they are a rare breed – I suspect she’ll be unable to take new patients soon, but try if you need help – she’s a gem.

Mints in the lobby are a plus, so you don’t knock out your therapist with bad breath. Jokes aside, keeping the body physically healthy and having regular doctor visits is often seen as a no-brainer; when it comes to mental health, making that decision to make sure everything is OK and getting help with any problems you might be having can be significantly more difficult for many people. I’ve been seeing Dr. Fein for a couple of months now and I have been very happy with her services and care decisions. I feel very comfortable with her and I am confident that I am in good hands. This is a newer, smaller mental health and wellness practice that is establishing itself- I chose Playa Vista Mental Health for this very reason- as I felt that more intimate attention could be paid towards servicing patients’ unique needs, compared with larger practices that are very booked, where quality of care can suffer. My hunch was right and I am glad I chose Dr. Fein!

I recently decided to switch doctors and found Dr. Fein like many others on Yelp. Everything you read is true regarding her care and experience. This would be recommended to those who truly want to get to the core of issues, she is a great mentor and listener.

I had the pleasure of working with Dr. Fein during my fellowship training. She is a kind, intelligent, empathic and detail-oriented physician who provides excellent care to her patients. I would recommend Dr. Fein to a family member or friend, as I very much trust her clinical judgment and expertise.

Dr. Deborah Fein is a great human being as well as an excellent professional! Some Drs are one or the other. In my opinion you have to be both to be a complete doctor!

Dr. Deborah Fein is an excellent psychiatrist. I really felt that she is a real, genuine person and a caring doctor in every sense of the word.

Dr. Fein is a sympathetic and kind doctor with a caring bedside manner. She was prompt and made me feel at ease during my appointment. I would highly recommend her.

Dr. Fein is a great listener and came up with a good plan for my treatment. I would recommend her to others suffering from anxiety and depression.
