The Bethesda Co-Op is a small grocery store filled with many organic and healthy products. They don't have the largest selection, but a pretty nice one none the less. They have produce, dairy, health and beauty products as well as many other food products. The staff is also very nice and friendly.

I went to Bethesda Dental Associates for a checkup and had 2 cavities, so had to go back to get them filled. The dental hygenist who did the cleaning was really nice, and very up front that the flouride treatment was not covered by my insurance and told me how much it was before administering it. That was nice! The dentist herself was great, and the cavity appointment wasn't too bad. The reception staff is great and they explained the billing process to me very well.
The office is a block from the Bethesda metro There is very limited parking so I recommend taking the metro.

Dr. Berenhaus fixed my contact lens problem, I had been all over town trying to get it right. He teaches other doctors how to prescribe contact lenses and has almost every prescription in stock. His office is neat, clean, and has the latest computers to check my eyes without me having to guess at different lenses. It was an overall excellent experience and it seems that others feel the same, everyone who entered or left the office seemed to be smiling.

I have been seeing Psychiatrists since I first starting having trouble with major depression at age nineteen -- I'm 41 now, so you can do the math. I have tried psychoanalysis, cognitive therapy, you name it. I've probably spent over $200,000 to date.
In the end, I decided that talk therapy, while comforting in the short term, was really not getting me anywhere and that, at least for me, meds were the primary recourse.
I have been seeing Dr. Birk since my last major crash in 2005.
I have found that, while my initial reaction was that she was over-medicating me, her choices of meds have really helped me. Most recently, I had terrible trouble sleeping. I went to a neurologist specializing in sleep disorders. The neurologist was not able to help me at all.
The next time I saw Dr Birk, she made some fairly substantial changes to my meds which made me feel like my old self within 48 hours.
I cannot speak to her skills as a psychoanalyst, but looking back over my last 2 years with her, I don't think she has made a single mis-step on the meds.
That being said, my first bit of advice is that if you don't feel a good match with any doctor, try someone else. Second, remember that you are your own best primary care physician and best primary psychiatrist. It is up to you to remind doctors of what has worked in the past and what you feel would be good changes to try. These doctors are not machines. With hundreds of patients under their care, they can't remember every nuance of every thing you've ever told them.
Good luck to all of you out there. Things can and will get better for you.

A friend of mine recommended Dr. Brody to me when I was looking for a new doctor, so now I feel it is time to pass on the good fortune. Dr. Brody is wonderful. She is one of those doctors who actually seems to care about her patients, takes the time to listen to them and give advice. Also the office that she practices has a lot of good doctors. They do whatever they can to help you out, which really helps when you need to see someone fast. Every time that I've gone I haven't had to wait long to see any of the doctors, even when they fit me in without an appointment. Just know that to get an appointment with Dr. Brody sometimes you have to call a while in advance (I called two months ahead when scheduling my yearly check-up). But if there is an unscheduled issue that you need to deal with they will do their best (which is usually really good) to fit you in.

The staff is very friendly but the doctors seem very busy. The doctors do take the time to talk to you, but if you don't come prepared, you can feel rushed.
