Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

I have been a patient since 2017 & I am very happy with him & his office staff! Very compassionate!

I’m not one who normally leaves reviews but I’m going to take e few minutes to express my gratitude for having found Dr. Bunt and the entire staff at Space Coast Psychiatry. Everyone is professional, friendly and helpful. Dr Bunt helped me find the right treatment options for my issues and answers my many questions thoughtfully and thoroughly. He has a caring attitude and a depth of knowledge difficult to find in a world where we push care providers to do more and more in less time so the economics work. He makes it work in spite of the system, not because of it.

I love the women who work for Dr. Bunt. My therapist is one of my favorite people and she’s helped me more than I could ever possibly say. I go there for therapy as well as psychiatry and have great confidence in this staff.

Go see this doctor. The nurses and social workers and doctors are so friendly and made me feel extremely comfortable. The office feels comfy and not overly sterile or clinical. I can tell that the employees enjoy being there. And while professional they are so friendly and warm.

Dr. Bunt and his entire team is amazing! They are beyond caring and supportive! The welcoming faces from when you walk in, to see the doctors themselves is everything I've been looking for. Dr.bunt himself is a very busy man, but don't think he doesn't pay attention to what's going on with the patients. He is always there to answer questions and make you feel more comfortable! I love this place more then any other I've been too. Thank you so much for your help guys!

I called looking for a suboxone provider and being very nervous to go into this program, the ladies at the front desk where very professional and helped me get an apt ASAP. They where friendly and explained everything I needed to know. I was taken back by one of the Medical Assistance and she started the apt with me, then I went to see an arnp Susan who made my experience that much better. Before the end of the apt Dr. Bunt came in and explained the last of the program to me.

My PCM sent me to Dr Bunt, because I wanted to stop taking antipressants. I saw the Dr for about 5 min when he introduced himself during my 1st visit with the NP, whose job is apparently to keep getting you to take medication. She decided I had ADD. I'm over 50 so this was news to me. Rather than stopping medication, she kept talking me into trying different meds (for depression, anxiety, & ADD), most of which caused bad side effects. Nearly a year later, I was more screwed up than before.

I have been going to Dr. Bunts office for over 4 years. I see Suzanne Berkeley every month she knows and understands more about my condition than my doctors do. The office is extremely nice and friendly Christie the office manager works with you on any situation you might have, overall the whole office is extremely professional and knowledgeable.

I've only seen Dr. Bunt once for 10 minutes during my initial appointment. I always have my appointment with the same person and she is friendly, she prescribes my medication and we talk. However, if Dr. Bunt is my doctor I would like to see him on occasion!
