Rochester Center for Behavioral Medicine: Joel L. Young, MD

"Dr.Young listened to me and really worked to find a plan that is both realistic and works for me. He made me feel heard and I'm happy to be working with him!"

"Everybody at this location is AMAZING!!! The front desk staff is warm, patient, and amazingly helpful. They've always answered my questions completely, and are very approachable. The doctors and staff are also wonderful, of course. They expertly address my concerns, provide excellent advice and support, and have been as comforting and considerate as I could expect. If you're reading this, you need to call and see for yourself. You'll be in good hands in no time!!"

"Unfortunately with any great doctor comes an overload of patients. The best always are the busiest . I assure you that he is worth the long waits on the phone, telehealth visits, and prescription requests. Dr young has changed my life. I seeked him out from desperation, due to my chronic fatigue syndrome and adhd. I was hopeless. He has always put my best interest in mind, and listened to my input as to what I feel is best for me also. He has helped me to regain my energy back, and focus on my future, which now looks bright. His staff has be nice to me, and patent. You get what you give is my moto. If you talk to people with rudeness in your voice because your angry over wait times that they have no control over, you will get that same energy back. Be patent and understanding. They will get to you. His recommendations and care has been top notch. And I thing the poor guy is overworked and deserves a good break. Thankyou doctor young!"

"This doctor cares more about giving medication than providing patient care. No compassion what so ever. Every meeting I have with him only last 10-15 minutes. He doesn’t make 100 percent eye contact. Very unhappy with him. My previous psychiatrist was 10 times better than him but no longer in practice. He was old school and he would provide a 45 minute conversation than prescribed a medication that would fit me. But anyways, At least spend 30 minutes with your patients. Don’t rush them. Im in the process of finding someone else."

"RCBM is a remarkable place to be Heard! The therapist I had actually knew me better than any person I’ve known. She never pushed in an uncomfortable direction, always heard what I was saying and responded with kind guidance. Dr Young is personable and professional. His kindness is reflected in his sympathetic suggestions for the most effective medications for my diagnosis. He listens to all aspects of my health, mental, emotional and physical. He is extremely calm and confident and a pleasure to chat with at our visits."
