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.

So glad I found him!
Dr. Foster actually takes the time to hear what I’m saying, he actually reviews patient notes, he respects patient concerns/thoughts about different medications, etc., etc.. I’m beyond grateful that my previous psychiatrist >literally< ghosted me, prompting me to find Dr. Foster. Cant say enough great things about him.

I didn’t care for the way dr Foster spoke to me or his tone of voice. I came to him seeking help with tapering slowly off a phsycotropic medication prescribed by another dr. He demanded that I make a large dosage cut to the current med and start a antidepressant simultaneously, against my wishes. I explained to him I wasn’t comfortable making that large a dosage reduction nor with starting an a/d. He told me those were my opinions, take it or leave it. I canceled my next appt, never went back.
