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.

Best Psychiatrist I Ever Had
I saw Dr. Garson for 6 years while I resided on Long Island. I had seen seven other psychiatrists in my 64 years. Hands down,. he is the best. Kind, soft-spoken, good listener and very well educated. Highly recommended.

Does not listen to the patient. Falls asleep during office visits. Schedules appointments and does not show up. Does not prescribe sufficient doses of medication to last until the next monthly visit (a daily medication should last 30 days until the next monthly appointment). Sends Rx to the wrong pharmacy. Experiments with medication that the patient has clearly stated to have had an adverse reaction to in the past. Spends less than 5 minutes with the patient.Seeking alternative care provider.
