We had an ADHD medication initiation consultation with Dr Oyebanjo for my 6 year old daughter. The Dr was very friendly and instantly made us feel comfortable. He took the time to understand what our objectives were and explained everything in great detail. We had time to ask lots of questions and walked away feeling listened to and were very happy with the plan. I would highly recommend Dr Oyebanjo.

Our son saw Dr Oyebanjo at the Spectrum Mind Clinic, with regard to his ADHD drugs management. We had an excellent experience with Dr Oyebanjo - he was always really kind, pleasant and helpful and extremely professional, too. I have already recommended Spectrum Mind Clinic to a number of my friends and will certainly continue to do so - we are really grateful for their help and advice.
