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.

She kept raising my medication levels even when the side effects became serious. I tried to discuss this with the doctor but I never really got an answer. I went to the triage nurse who reviewed my condition. The nurse immediately filled out the paperwork to send me to the emergency room. I ended up in the hospital for a month while the doctors tapered me off my old medication and phased in a new one.

Your psychiatrist should be smarter than you.
Tantrums? Really?You want to work with your psychiatrist, discuss the problem. You don't want to be forced to listen to tantrums when you 'disobey'.Dr. Venkatesh's training seems reflect Indian superstition which overrides any modern results in the scholarly literature.Pass.

Rudimentary attention to changes in conditions including dangerous side effects from medications. The clinical pharmacologist caught my questions about possible permanent damage from the medications and called me up the next morning at 8 AM to put me on a different set of medications. I'd only been asking about this for a year.

Dr Venkatesh has no understanding of depression in any of its forms. She has played games with required paperwork (in order for me to get disability and remain employed and seems to think she can cure depression in 2 weeks. These games have cost me thousands in disability compensation, and may lose me my job. I've fired her from my treatment staff. I cannot give her a low enough rating.
