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.

Ok but not great
Dr Rao acts like he does not believe what I say I’m experiencing. Instead he says you are convinced you have ADHD. “Everyone thinks they have adhd” He has made list multiple times why I think I have adhd. When I clearly let him know I’m struggling with completing daily activities and keeping track of things I need to do.

Dr. Rao has been treating our adult son with autism for the past year. He does an excellent job, is extremely knowledgeable about medications, and is genuinely concerned about his patients's welfare.

Indifferent and condescending. Even talk of suicide doesn't really get his attention. There are so many good psychiatrists out there. Don't harm yourself by seeing this malpractice tragedy waiting to happen.
