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 Charles assessment of me - in 20 minutes - was largely based on what he called my mom's misdiagnoses. He has never met my mom who has been dead for 10 years. He listened to me and then told me I was bipolar because my mom was bipolar but my mom really had schizophrenia. I think he's a quack.

I walked in with depression, ADD, and anxiety. With no testing I walked out a anti-psychotic drug, a doubled script for anxiety meds. Nothing for ADD. The attitude was confrontational and non supportive. How does a Dr. determine a severe mental disorder with no test? He might think he is a psychic psychiatrist but in my opinion he shold seek professional help.
