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.

Worst ever
While he claims he’s a lawyer and a psychiatrist, he seems incompetent in both areas.

I was hospitalized as a 16 year old without my consent and was treated to cruel and unusual punishment by this man.

I saw him for a couple years when I was a teen. He overmedicated me with antipsychotics, to the point I was sleeping in excess of 14 hours a day. I was never, at any point, psychotic. I was depressed, anxious, and suicidal. I had hypothyroidism, which was untreated for the duration I saw him, worsening the depression. As an adult I work with teens who have similar issues to what I had, and now realize the treatment was grossly inappropriate.

Dr. Schwarz is amazing! Without him through our difficult times with a mentally I'll adopted child our family would never have made it. I mean that literally. I don't have enough words to describe how fabulous this doctor and lawyer is!
