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.

Terrible doctor and overcharges.

I had an excellent experience with Dr. Mokhtari and highly recommend him. He took care of my long term depression and anxiety that no other doctor had been able to do within the last 8 years of the history of my problem. My entire family is thankful to his thorough examination and observation and professionalism.

Can't agree more with person above. Dr. Mokhtari needs to be fired and find a different line of work. Won't look at you during visits, when he does it's like a death stare, always cocky and arrogant, will pull you off medication you've been taking for years by other doctors just because he feels like it or read something on google. Complete jerk!

Thorough evaluation of both current medical & psychitratiac status with an EXCEPTIONAL review of medications and medication options. EXCEEDS expectations for looking at my specific needs encompassing both medical and psychiatric issues unique to me. He includes me in decisions for my care and takes ENOUGH time to answer my questions. My one complaint would be his treatment feels CLINICAL. I would like to feel more of a sense compassion which is important for me. I would recommend him.

Kelly R. in Shawnee – Dec 02, 2016

Dr. Mokhtari is a very nervous man with a very poor bedside manner. He gave me the most ridiculous advice, and I had to admonish him to stop pressuring me to do something I don't want to do and don't believe in. He did not correctly remember my medical records, had not read them, does not respect my preferences for treatment, and spends the entire 30 minute medication clinic asking irrelevent questions.
