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.

Dr. Benetos is the first and rare psychiatrist who takes an integrative approach toward improving mental health aka brain disease. In addition to medication, she focuses on and addresses the impact of our daily diet and nutrition on our brain function along with sleep and exercise.

She doesn't return calls or refill meds on time! No one to cover, so you're stuck if she's not around. I also think she might not be taking my symptoms seriously.

This Dr Benetos is a unique psychiatrist in that she specializes in thr fact no cse or individual in need I beyond the scope of returning to a status quo one full familial, social and most important self integration Her talent in light of her young age and hence,lesser years of chronological eperience is in fact the tell tale sign to us, all of her patients, myself included, what her professional capabilities will materialize into in the years yet to come.

My husband was a recent patient of Dr. Benetos. Each month, he has had to call multiple times along with the pharmacy to get his prescriptions refilled. In the process, Dr. Benetos has been unresponsive and the staff was rude - inflicting further anxiety on him. Recently, my husband called 5 times to get his prescription refilled and ultimately ran out of his medication due to Dr. Benetos and her team not taking any action. What doctor knowingly disrupts their patient's care plan? A bad one.
