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.

Inappropriate, unprofessional, unhelpful
Waited a good 4 hours, but I was referred to him when my other doc moved out of state. I told him about my concerns re: a decreased sex drive as a result of my med-his response was “well, do you want to get pregnant?”. No follow-up questions or further assessment-kept me on the same dose and med. He then asked about my weekend plans and when I told him about my plans with a friend, he asked how old she was and if she was single. The convo about my friend lasted longer than anything related to my visit. He also asked way more questions about my weekend plans and my friend than he did during his “assessment”.

Absolutely the most unprofessional, recklessly irresponsible psychiatrist on the planet. He is never less than 4-5 hours late when conducting a telemedicine appointment, he would call me at 9:45pm for a 2pm appointment. He would speak to me for 2 minutes and then forget to call my prescriptions into the pharmacy!

If I could leave zero stars I would. I made an appointment over 2 weeks in advance, as a new patient. On the day of the appointment, I got a call from the receptionist telling me that the "appointment" would be over the phone, and that she needed to collect my copay. I didn't really agree with a psychiatric appt over the phone, but I gave her my card info anyway. So the scheduled time comes and goes, I get no phone call from the doctor, no explanation as to why. At the end of the day, I called and got the voicemail, so I left a message instructing that my card not be charged. The next afternoon, a charge shows up on my card for a call I never got. And when I called the receptionist back to ask why she charged me, she had no idea that the doctor hadn't called. And she said that she didn't get my message because she "had a migraine". Wow. So unprofessional on so many levels. And I'm still waiting for my money to be refunded.
