Dr. Howard J. Ilivicky, MD 4132 Keaton Crossing Boulevard, O'Fallon, MO 63368

"Ilivicky is despicable. Does not listen and gaslights you into thinking something is wrong with you. Had mild anxiety, and he prescribed an SSRI. Quit taking 9 years, and still have not fully recovered from the side effects."

"After bad experiences with other mental health professional, I didn’t expect this to be any different. I started seeing Dr. Ilivicky in college and it’s been life changing. He’s always patient during rough patches, proactive during good periods, and always respects my opinions about treatment options. Couldn’t ask for more!"

"I have been with Dr. Ilivicky for many years... too the naysayers he has been excellent in my care. He does not push drugs on me... and listens to me and my worries, all which are private between he and I. He picks up on my behavior while seeing him... He is and always be my Psychiatrist. If I could rate higher then 5 I would... for me a 10."

"Dr. Illivicki is knowledgeable, caring, and by far the best psychiatrist I have met. He is so well-versed in pharmacology that he has me at my most lucent and happy without side effects or anything negative. I trust Dr. Illivicki’s diagnosis and remedies fully and know I am safe and well-informed as to our plan for optimal results. A+"

"Incredibly smart man, but lacks the ability to think outside the box, and has a surprisingly poor understanding of pharmacodynamics considering his research background. He has a tendency of being quite arrogant at times as well. Don’t expect him to change the direction of your treatment based on specific issues you report at follow-up visits; he’s already decided on his next course of action before you walk through the door. Based on my personal experience and conversations with a couple local pharmacists familiar with Ilivicky, he has a tendency to be a bit heavy-handed with the prescription pad, especially when it comes to pricier drugs. He’s definitely not one of the worst offenders out there in this regard, but I believe he could do better."
