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 Syed Ali Is a wonderful person. He listens asks question. Very compassionate and kind. Very helpful.

I highly recommend Dr. Fatima Ali to anyone seeking therapy. I have been a patient of Dr. Ali for greater than three years and have always found her guidance and help invaluable. Additionally, she was instrumental in helping me secure disability insurance and providing help and counseling with other life circumstances. I plan to remain her patient for as long as she continues to practice and highly recommend her to anyone seeking therapy. Sincerely, Patrick

Great psychiatrist. She is in huge demand so wait time can be long. Staff will let you know if she's running late if you call in advance so you are not waiting in the office. She is definitely worth the wait. I was helped greatly by her before I had to move away.

I waited over an hour and a half to see her. Typically she is an hour late. It feels ridiculous to be on time for an appointment, but if I am late or cancel last minute I get charged. Staff is highly friendly.

Fatima is a godsend for eating disorder patients. She knows exactly what she's talking about and will always spend as much time with you as needed. That being said, the wait time to see her on any given day is usually an hour but she is most definitely worth the wait. Everyone who I know that sees her only has good things to say about her (besides the wait time). Strongly recommend!

Dr. Ali is a wonderful doctor, but it is impossible to get an urgent appointment with her - anything less than 1+ month away. So they force you to see her husband, also a psychiatrist who shares the office, for refills. He always wanted to change my medication when he knew nothing about me - and extremely important ones. I felt bullied. He would always ask if he could follow up with me and he intimidated me so I would say yes, then cancel and reschedule with Fatima. I now have a new doctor.
