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.

He is condescending, does not ask questions and does not respond to questons.

Have recommended Dr Cusick to several people in the past. He demonstrates compassion, honesty and it is obvious he really cares about how I am doing. Dr. Cusick is the best! I am fortunate to have him as my doctor.

I feel that he does not value his patients best interests. Before more reasonable options for anxiety, he told me to take Xanax even if I was not anxious “just so I can see how it feels.” I am now dependent on benzodiazepines because of his initial performance. When I told him I took ceterizine (for allergies) he told me I was a drug seeker and cut me off alprazolam cold turkey and threw me on barbiturates. I had never felt more like a zombie in my life. My entire family pleaded him to help.

Dr. Cusick upon first visit is very low key. Very good listener. Takes some notes, and refers back to them. Includes the family in patient care.
