We absolutely adore Dr. Drennan. My son has ADHD and I was really stressed by the time we got to Dr. Drennan and had been through a couple of specialists by the time we got there. I felt a lot of shame at the time surrounding my son’s behavior, and in hindsight I can see how he really helped at deactivating that whole thing without me even talking about it directly with him (which in turn cleared the way for me to show up for my son in a much more helpful way). He’s compassionate but very authentic, in that I don’t think he would tiptoe around it if he saw that some unhelpful dynamic was going on, which I personally really appreciate.

Personable, resourceful, knowledgeable

Dr. Drennan has been such a great help and resource for our family as we navigate treating our son’s hyperactivity. He is thorough and takes the time to explain everything in detail and answer any questions we may have. He is also very responsive and easily accessible. I would highly recommend Dr. Drennan!

He helps me alot with the problems I have and he is patient when I have trouble speaking.

My son has been through about 4 psychiatrists and Dr. Drennan is by far THE BEST! He listens, and gives advice, but DOES NOT push for medication and it’s not his way or no way like many others. He gives OPTIONS which I love most! He is very professional and cares about his patients! Highly recommend for any parent needing a psychiatric for their child.

Dr. Drennan is easy to talk to and straightforward. He gives you all of your options, will give his conservative opinion if asked, but allows you to make a decision that is best for your child.

Personally, I think this psychiatrist needs a psychiatrist because doesn't know how to speak to patients respectfully. When we started the appointment he was very negative. He did not give me any hope for my daughter. The way he spoke to me felt very condescending. He makes you feel as if you don't know what you're talking about when you know everything there is to know about your child. I canceled our second appointment. I'm looking for a more compassionate open-minded doctor with a more welcoming bedside manner. Unfortunately, I cannot recommend this psychiatrist for a child with autism spectrum disorder.

I’ve been seeing Dr. Drennan since I was 16 and I’m now 19 - I’ve never thought about seeing anyone else! He is very personable and easy to talk to, and straightforward, which I like. I even look forward to our appointments. I believe he genuinely cares about his patients and wants the best for them.

I absolutely like Dr. Drennan. He is also available to listen and offer positive advise. Our interaction with him is always positive, and we highly recommend him if you are looking for a child psychiatrists
