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. Rizvi Review
Dr. Rizvi is an extremely knowledgeable and caring psychiatrist who understands his patient (my son). My son feels comfortable speaking with him plus, Dr. Rizvi allowed my husband, my son's CSB Coordinator, and me in the face-to-face sessions. He listens and ordered my son a new medication.

I am very pleased he takes Medicare I saw another Doctor there but had to be switched! Dr Riizvi is very kind and caring and knows his business I liked the decisions he made to put careful decisions on my meditations! Don't let others who have bad reviews keep you from seeing a really good Doctor!!!!

Highly NOT recommended!This doctor is extremely rude. Did a virtual visit with this man twice and had an unpleasant experience both times. The first time my kids were making light noise in the background and he told me to go into another room and my kids weren’t that loud and he was very rude about it. He’s not compassionate at all and not understanding. Had another visit with him and I asked him to get a certain amount of medication that I’ve been prescribed before and he told me no and I need to get a primary care doctor to prescribe the medicine which is not true. I don’t have a pcp right now because nobody is accepting new patients due to the coronavirus. I would not see this man again if my life depended on it. Not a caring doctor at all

Not sure why there are bad reviews for Dr. Rizvi. He is always on time to the minute, at least for these COVID telehealth appointments. He listens intently, obviously cares about you, and makes very measured decisions about your care. He always remembers everything that you went over on your last appointment and has a good understanding of your progress over time. I have had several psychiatrists over my lifetime and Dr. Rizvi is far and away the best I have ever had.

Dr. Rizvi is extremely uncaring and cold. He sees his patients as walking credit cards, plain and simple. Does not listen to your concerns and makes you feel like you're making up any side effects you experience as a result of medication.
