"Dr. Granados has always been very thorough with the patients who have understood the process of testing. They come back to my practice better informed to ask pertinent questions and avoid misconceptions about medication and therapy." (Pediatrician)
"You were right. I thought that all counselors did testing. I didn't realize how complicated and long the process would be. I called over 40 people, because I'm a type A personality. Even though they said they could do testing, the Insurance said only a couple counselors actually were approved in Sacramento county and you had the best feedback. Getting your kid services shouldn't be so hard. I understand know why you lay things out for parents they way you do." (Family)
"I can't believe you offer so many diverse testing services to our members without a ridiculous waiting list. I am going to e-mail the other Care Managers so that they know appointments are available." (Insurance Representative)
"You were the first person my husband listened to. You talked to him on his level and gave him evidence, statistics, and proof that he couldn't deny. It's the first time he ever suggested let's go back and see that shrink." (Family)
"Honey, you're younger than I am by a few decades. You're not the first person to tell me I am losing my memory and shouldn't be driving. But you were the first person to explain it to my wife like I still matter. I've always said I remember what's important to me. And young lady you fired back and told me how my brain works to learn and memorize things. You didn't talk past me like I was not in the room, like the other doctors do. You lightened my load that day. I don't wanna lose my memory. But the couple things you said made a difference. I'm gonna fight to keep what I have and I'm gonna stop fighting with my wife and kids when they say I shouldn't be driving." (Family)
"I was like many parents in total denial about my son. When the doctor told us the diagnosis I left angry and completely disagreed with her assessment. With time, and the school's IEP I came to realize that Dr. Granados does a really good job at delivering hard news. I was not easy to work with. I questioned everything she did. And a year later, I am writing this letter to apologize to her and the clinical team for my behavior. I made it harder on my wife and everyone involved. The doctor was the first person to not back down to me, even though I can be an intimidating guy at work and in general. I appreciate her patience and professionalism even though I didn't see it at the time." (Family)
"Your reports are concise, professional, and exceed the level we expect in mental health. I've never met a Psychologist so well informed about the legal system. You will be getting my forensic referrals." (Attorney)
"It was amazing to sit and see you work with my case family. You were so caring, compassionate, and informed about the genetic disorder. You didn't make them feel inferior or ashamed as they have felt before with other examiners. You really got down to the child's level and helped them to see that even though she is not speaking she is communicating. It was great to see you pull out the picture boards, sensory toys, and stroller. This is the first time the family has walked their daughter to a park without feeling ashamed of what other parents would think. Your compassion is only exceeded by your willingness to self-disclose your own experience with your special needs son. It made a huge difference for this family. I don't cry when I case manage, but I did cry for this family when they weren't looking." (Case Manager)
"My daughter is doing great. She has her Anxiety Booklet you created in her backpack. You were the first therapist who didn't waste our time with play or babble. You did an intake and were off to the races. My ex-husband doesn't go to her appointments but he can see what she's learning by her Therapy Folder. You're one of the few things we don't argue about. Why weren't you around for marriage therapy five years ago? LOL" (Family)
"Hearing that your son has Autism is gut wrenching. But my wife and I got through it. Dr. Granados was great at helping my parents who are very conservative and religious to understand that Autism isn't something to be ashamed of for our family." (Family)
