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. Clawson treated my son for many years until my son moved to another state and I cannot say enough about his professionalism, expertise in treating autism, caring nature and intelligence. He connects in a wonderful way with his patients and cares deeply for them. He responds quickly to ever-changing needs in medication or situation and intuits those changes. He also has great communication with parents and provided the best psychiatric care we have ever had for our son.
