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.

The Best
Love Center for Focused Care and Dr. Sipple. My first appointment it was obvious they were listening very closely and showed genuine concern. Medicine was explained very clearly and all my questions answered. Dr. Sipple genuinely cares. The staff is great, especially Julie at the front desk. By far the best place I've found and been searching for years

Hands Down the Best Psychiatrist!
Dr. Sipple is hands down the best psychiatrist I've ever been to, and I've been to many over my life time. He is a very knowledgeable, careful, caring, helpful, compassionate doctor. He is never rushed and takes the time to explain and answer any questions you may have regarding your treatment and goes above and beyond to make sure you are happy with your treatment plan. He is the most modest psychiatrist I have ever met and by that I mean he doesn't treat you like he's better than you because he's a doctor, but treats you as an equal, fellow human being. He works as a team with his patients and family to find the best treatment plan. I can't say enough good things about him. I would highly recommend him to anyone.

It’s been yrs & I miss him. I was over medicated. He got me at only 2 meds,1 was as needed. He listened unlike every other dr. He knew who I was an remember the things I told him about. Other doctor ask how’s everything going ok look at your folder ask couple more text book question a bye. I literally ask a dr to tell me something about me. What is some off why I have ptsd. They say because of a tragic event. Text book. Sr supple would have remember the events we talked about. He’s friendly carrying a realistic you can tell he enjoys helping people by the way he interacts with ppl. I’ve been trying to get back with him. I’ll travel from Pitt to see him. Him a mark bratt hands down the Best I’ve ever been with a that’s a few. Before an after. Nobody even comes close to those 2

This review is NOT about Dr. Sipple, but, rather his staff. I saw one of his therapists who is maybe a Registered Nurse. She was unprofessional. She was selling LuLaRue clothing and spent most of our sessions trying to sell me clothing or talking about herself and her family. I have an MSW and know what a professional therapist does and does not do. I wish I would have been able to see Dr. Sipple. Also, this therapist and the ' office manager', Justin seem to have a special relationship in which they discuss clients and ridicule them, and yes, I have heard this and also was a victim. I am surprised Dr. Sipple keeps staff with such characteristics.

One of Erie's Best !!! For starters, Dr Sipple has front end staff that are very welcoming and approachable. How rare has that become? Dr. Sipple, himself, is very attentive and compassionate with my son. His approach makes us all feel important, as he listens to our varying perspectives without shame or judgement. Dr. Sipple is also very knowledgeable and informative. He's willing to give options and empower us to choose with his professional experience as a guide. Likewise, he instills a sense of hope by telling us alternative plans that are available, if needed in the future. If you're reluctant about seeing a Psychiatrist, this is one to check out for sure. He also has multiple other providers in his office that are very highly recommended by friends.

I have found the right psychiatrist for me with Dr. Sipple. He has taken the time to work with me, for multiple years now, in order to see me become the best possible version of myself. He has always truly cared about my life and struggles, and more than anything he has always taken all the time I need during an appointment. I am constantly impressed by how well he knows me and I truly hope I never have to find another psychiatrist in my lifetime.

Dr. Sipple provides exceptional psychiatric care. He has worked with me for years and has shown me great compassion, empathy, and dedication. I have also battled addiction and he has never given up on me. I have been to psychiatrists all over the country and Dr. Sipple is by far the best. Dr Sipple has allowed me to be a part of my treatment process by working with me. His staff is friendly, welcoming, and professional. Thanks to Dr. Sipple, I have my life back.
