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 Sniff treated me as a adult patient
Dr Sniff work with me for several years. She was always very supportive and helpful. I had major crisis to deal with and she was very nice. I think she can come across sometimes as unsympathetic but you have to get to know her. She truly does care about her patients

After our first initial visit, I realized that she was not the doctor for us. She would only see my child if we would medicate him. I felt that she needed to get to know him better. She was rude and really didn't seem interested at all.

My daughter has seen Dr. Sniff sense she was 5 years old she is now 12. Dr. Sniff has been the only one to listen, and to get her on the right medication. My daughter goes to school now and is going great thanks to her.

Dr. Sniff has been my psych for about 2 or 3 years now, since I moved back to Houston. She and her staff are incredibly accomodating, and I feel like I am taken care of each visit I have. I am an adult, and Dr. Sniff is equally as capable as making sure I am taken care of as she is her younger patients. You do need to make sure you're on time, but that's the case with any doctors appointment. Her staff are not rude either. I would suggest her to anyone needing psych care and medication therapy.

All they care about is your money. Dr. Sniff and her front desk assistant are so rude. I don't know what they expect to get out of being rude and disrespectful. Dr. Sniff is always late for appointments and she never apologizes for it, yet charges $50 if you're late to her appointments.

We took our son here to test for ADHD. At our first appointment, after a couple of questions she said, it sounds like he might have ADHD. What meds do you want to start him on? Maybe it's my own misunderstanding of psychiatry but I was expecting more intensive testing. She never told us we could get the meds from his pediatrician, instead charging us for a whole visit every time we needed a refill. Her receptionist is truly the worst I've ever dealt with. She is extremely rude every time.

Dr. Sniff is rude and potentially damaging. I was 5 min late and after her medical assistant told her I was there Dr. Sniff peaked out of her office and shouted make another appt. Can u say HIPPA? U knew how important this appointment was and you are late. I reminded her I have never been late b4. She said well if my next patient doesn't arrive at appointed time I will see you. The patient did not come. So, I saw her the 1st thing she said was Now I know why your family doesn't love you
