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.

Robbed me blind
I’ve been with him for four + years . Actually I got worse . But Even during my stable times he would schedule me extra sessions just to make money off me . And then during my bad times he would change my meds so frequently I was falling into potholes and slurring my speech . Then I fell into a little bit of erotic / paternal transference with him when I was in my darkest hole. He completely took advantage of that and scheduled multiple sessions a week for me but completely dismissed my feelings , yet he knew how to charge my credit card . He would schedule sessions ,end them early, and charge me THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS A DAY. My husband works so so hard to support or family and I think n it’s so unfair. Clearly he took terrible advantage of a sick and naive girl and I am very disturbed by him and his practice as well. I feel I got dooped . Then I finally got a different psychiatrist and realized all this .

Great Practice and Great Doctor
Dr. Jeff Ditzell is a truly exceptional psychiatrist based in New York City. From the moment I stepped into his office, I felt welcomed and at ease. What sets Dr. Ditzell apart is his unique approach to patient care - he treats the patient, not the person. This means he focuses on addressing the individual's specific needs and concerns, rather than just their diagnosis. Additionally, his friendly and knowledgeable staff only adds to the positive experience at his practice. They make it a point to create a warm and inviting environment for all patients, and it shows. I highly recommend Dr. Ditzell to anyone in need of psychiatric care. He is truly invested in helping his patients improve their mental well-being, and I am grateful for his dedication and expertise.

Guy cares about your well being 0%. He wants his schedule full with not patients but money. Saw him 4 times spent $2000. He didn’t show for last session and charged me $450. Worst therapy. And misdiagnosed my meds. Falsely stated that benzodiazepines like Xanax are scheduled 2. What kind of doctor gets this wrong?

Arrogant, dismissive, belittling. Makes no effort to understand or even listen to the patient. Stares at his computer screen during appointments. Never holds appointments for the full hour.
