Robert Matlack, MD

Robert Matlack, MD grew up in Fayetteville, NC and started Best Day Psychiatry and Counseling, formerly known as Fayetteville Psychiatric Associates, in 2004, with the mission of treating children and adults with psychiatric needs. Since then, the practice has grown; we've added new physicians, as well as therapists, to increase access to care for the people of Fayetteville and surrounding areas.

As the practice grew beyond Fayetteville to include offices in Fuquay-Varina and Raleigh, in 2018 the name was changed to Best Day to reflect the goal to provide each patient a "better day" through a "better way" of providing exceptional psychiatric therapy and medication management services to patients!

TESTIMONIALS

We are committed to each and every patient we have the privilege to serve. Hear what some happy patients have to say!

"Help has been hard to find for me - Fayetteville Psychiatric Associates has been so easy to work with and they work hard to ensure patients are taken care of. Yes they are busy but they handle it well. From scheduling as a new patient to the the first appointment....my fears and nerves were put at ease by the respectful and caring staff. Thanks a Million to Dr Matlack and his staff."

"I’ve been seeing Mr. Downs for several months now and he’s not let me down once. He’s always had time for me, listened to me, worked with me and for me to help me manage my issues. When another practice failed me terribly, he did everything he could to help. I know everyone has their own experiences, but I would recommend him to anyone."
