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.

Always late, Quickly derailed, Exorbitant fees
Telehealth
A perfectly lovely man. However, in the months that I saw him, he was consistently 10 minutes late to our sessions. He would quickly become sidetracked, and unless you brought a list of exactly what you intended to discuss with him, you'd find yourself chatting about nonsense that didn't matter to you. His opinions were always too strong to ask good, probing questions, and his judgments were often too harsh and undesired. Despite my grace with his lack of punctuality, I was smacked with exorbitant no-show fee. Perfectly reasonable in this industry, but coupled with the above flaws, and a kerfuffle with insurance co-pays (from his error...), I cannot recommend him to anyone who sincerely cares about getting their money's worth, or anyone in a financially precarious position, which is most of us.
