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.

Almost useless

Dr. Davidson appears very bright, but he doesn’t seem to use it in his profession. He is almost cold as ice and has one diagnosis: bipolar disorder which he applies even in the complete absence of symptoms. He also is basically a scribe or secretary merely typing everything into his computer as one speaks. This means he’s not paying attention because the mind can only focus on transcription. A court reporter can’t function as a judge. It’s sad because it would seem with his intelligence he has great potential, but he has blocked it in his methodology or lack of it.

Dr Davidson is a used car sales man. When I just arrived in his office, before letting me sit down, he demanded his office visit. Then when I gave him my insurance and office visit, he asked me about my father, mother, and their descendants. He didn't ask about my symptoms , and just started typing my answers onthe computer . Then he just labeled me that I am a bipolar, since I just got up and wanted to leave this inept doctor's office. He was no near of being a empathetic doctor.

Unhappy in Los Angeles, CA – Dec 04, 2016
×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Davidson?
Dr Davidson has been one of the two most important Doctors in my life,since 1996, yes, since 20 years ago. Without his help and experience, I wouldn't be alive today.It has been a long painful road...I was not always in accord with his point of view...Thank you a thousand times. January 4 2016. Note,it's a one person office,but one can always reach,when it's very important.
