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.

thank you
Amazing. Dr. Cassidy restored me to enjoying life again. He told me at the beginning he could do it and it took awhile, but he did. He and his staff are excellent.

Saved Me From the Witch Doctor
When I moved back to Lakeland, I chose a psychiatrist who, from my perspective, seemed more worried about the time than actually listening to what I was experiencing. Her answer was testing. Oh, good heavens! The testing pronounced me bipolar; she switched all my medications around, and it was downhill from there. When I saw her for the last time, she wanted to commit me. WHAT? Heck no! My friend recommended I see Dr. Cassidy. After reading my file from the previous doctor; actually listening and asking questions, he informed me I was not bipolar; changed my medication and set me on the right path to regain my emotional health after being a guinea pig for my former psychiatrist. Without hesitation, I highly recommend Dr. Curtis Cassidy to anyone who is neurodiverse.

I have been seeing Dr. Cassidy for over 6 years now. I can honestly say that he is the best psychiatrist I have seen...period. He always listens and really cares about me and my family. His office staff is amazing too. Dr. Cassidy is one of those rare doctors that you don't find very often anymore. I wouldn't see anyone else. He is GREAT!!!

I have seen a total of five psychiatrists in the past 25 years since I was first diagnosed with chronic depression. Of the five, Dr. Cassidy is my favorite. He takes the time to listen and I don't feel rushed. He is actually friendly and shows expression unlike the usual stoicism displayed by others in his field. Seems more human, so to speak. I have to pay full out of pocket but he's worth it.

After over 30 years in the field, and working with hundreds of psychiatrists, Dr. Cassidy is one of the best doctors I have ever met. Everything from office practices and staff to personal attention to patients and exceptional knowledge of best practices, and careful with medication.
