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.

Beyond abrasive
Met with her once 2 weeks ago and was very put off how abrasive she was, especially given that she works in mental health. She is over the top condescending and seems like she goes out of your way to try and make you cry, to show her superiority. She doesn’t listen to you, but gets paid to pretend to care and help you, when all she does is judge you. Don’t waste your time!!

One star is generous. I’ve never met such a condescending person - let alone doctor. No business practicing especially with vulnerable patients with mental health issues.

Very condescending and lacks basic empathy. Not at all someone to be recommended. She is smart, but talks down like she's smarter than everyone.
