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.

I was a patient of Dr. Evans’ during my inpatient stay at Emerson Hospital. All I’ll say is don’t expect anything more than superficial sympathy, understanding, and compassion from him. If that’s all you’ll need, then he’ll be great for you. But if your experience with mental illness/disorder is more complicated like mine, and if you just want to felt heard, not dismissed as crazy or “hyper-sensitive,” then steer clear of him. He quite literally can’t get you out the door quick enough.
