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.

Ghosted Me
I've been sickeningly stressed, thinking I did something wrong, until I read the other review here!! He was very dismissive about an additional concern I raised (worried I may have an additional condition to the one initially saw him for) & instead went "car salesman" mode to push pills. Our last appointment seemed normal enough. I was, incidentally, actually satisfied with the results of the meds I was on, & we scheduled the next check-in 3 months out. I tried to get more refills on my prescription a few days ago, with both the pharmacy & I having contacted him (multiple times on my end!!). Absolutely no response or explanation. I feel super unsafe, as the antidepressant I was on definitely stabilized me during a difficult time. Now I'm out until I can find another doctor.

Pill pusher
Slowly realizing someone you thought was there to help you with your mental health cares little for you outside of the $100 dollar 15 minute "appointments" and medication money they can get out of you is an awful experience. At first he seemed caring but as the appointments continued it was clear he just wanted to keep messing with my medications rather than listen to me. Also, once I expressed that I would like to discuss my prescription and if I could continue my medication without the appointments, as they were not helping and only costing me, he did not respond and completely ghosted me, which did a terrible number on my mental health. Don't trust the generic 5 star reviews, I don't think they're authentic.

Caring, highly educated and knowledgable. Best psych I've ever been to. He listens and doesn't rush. I didn't feel like just another number.
