Straun Health & Wellness - CT

"Rich with insight and inspiration, Dr. Straun delivers on all levels. A+"

"I’m glad that I realized how arrogant individuals can be. Julie Folwer and Straun have committed multiple acts of malpractice including: A. Lack of informed consent B. Lack of communication and 3. Misdiagnosis. I am pursuing superior litigation… The individuals at Straun lack simple manner, lack professionalism, and lack honesty and have displayed a plentiful amount of arrogance. Leaving this profane practice was the greatest thing to ever happen to me. Whoever may read this, learn to love the word “crazy.” Historically, Thomas Edison was crazy, The Wright Brothers were, and so was Einstein! But they put their heads down and stopped listening. They eventually rose, and the ones who suggested “crazy” were actually the arrogant ones. You’re 1/1. Don’t let people who are “knowledgeable” tell you you’re something else. All love to everyone who’s struggling "

"If I could give Dr. Straun a One Million Star Rating I would! Dr. Straun is an absolute God-send. He is one of the most caring, knowledgeable and brilliant doctors I have ever met, and has a fabulous personality! He definitely is not your "run of the mill" psychiatrist. He takes the time to understand the patient with a holistic approach and addresses thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. One leaves their appointment feeling reassured with a total understanding of coping skills that impact one's life positively. I have total confidence in Dr. Straun, and am so very grateful to him."

"My experience with Dr. Straun and Straun Health & Wellness (SHAW) came as a PA student during my Psychiatry rotation and was a truly enjoyable experience. Dr. Straun is not only extremely knowledgeable and a great teacher to both his students and patients, but most importantly he truly cares for his patients individualizing treatment plans tailored specifically to each patient based on their preferences and needs. During my 5 weeks there I found the rest of the office staff to be equally as impressive. Isabel was always welcoming and communicated effectively and efficiently regarding my schedule. The few sessions I was able to sit in on with Mohammad and Courtney were also positive experiences, as were the Yoga sessions I attended with Jamie, and the CBT sessions I was able to both attend and lead. I will continue to highly recommend SHAW to anyone in search of mental health services, dealing with addiction, or looking to improve their well being."
