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.

Dr. Buttross has been amazing to me and my family, and as I continue to see others at Lake Area Psychiatry, they’re all just as incredible. The office staff never ceases to do everything they can to help me with insurance issues, payments, scheduling, and so on. I’ve never been to any healthcare office that takes care of me as a patient like they do.

Never saw the doctor the entire time I was forced to stay in the “Tenth Tower!” Staff was horrible! They kept threatening to put everyone in the isolation room. They wrote slanderous lies in my report calling me a racist when they were the ones acting in the most unprofessional manner. I would NEVER recommend this facility nor doctor who cares nothing about anything but money.

Dr Buttross is such a blessing to me and my family. He treats you as he were treating a family member. He listens attentively, cares deeply for his patients. He takes his time and doesn't make you feel like your just a number. He is a doctor I highly recommend !
