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 Herbst is readily available at all times. He has made accommodations for my son many times. He is highly qualified to deal with all psychiatric needs. He has allowed for telemed appts with my son as well.

I really enjoy the insight and care Dr. Herbst gives to his patients. He is willing to explain things to people, stays on top of the research, and limits his clients to (what is hopefully) a manageable work load. He has been recommended to my friends by other doctors, and I understand why. In addition to his professional expertise, he has a hippa compliant system, which allows me to send him medical information securely! I also enjoy that he has a location in downtown Ann Arbor. :)
