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.

Doesn’t not visit with patients, just gives drugs and threats

Deeply dangerous doctor for any psychiatric patien
I am one of the lucky ones to survive her, only because I actually had a support system on the outside. Many of the people I was in the mental hospital with had no one and had unfortunately crossed paths with the police already enough to have records. I had come off my last job (6 years long) and was in a 3 month gap between that and my future job. She played Russian roulette with all our meds and after leaving and trying to take things as prescribed I kept getting worse. To the point that I had 3 more altercations with police and could have easily been shot that last night. I am lucky to be alive thanks to her fake care. She hates mental patients, that much is very clear to me. I worry for all the others that were in lock up with me and at her mercy. She is Hitler level evil, thinking she is superior and experimenting on us with drugs she knows will make us worse when we're so out of it and trying to comply that we don't understand we're in danger.
