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.

Beware!
Telehealth
I was referred to this doctor. Told how great he was. The first appointment nobody sent me a link until almost an hour after my scheduled appointment - this is after waiting three months for the referral to go through. I went with the flow, went through with my appointment scheduled the second one in two weeks. Again, no link, within 20 minutes of my appointment. Almost a full half an hour later, I get the link. I asked the doctor if it is common for him to be this late to appointments because I am as busy as he is, and was told I could find another doctor. he told me appointments run late. I told him that his secretary said he started at 4:30 which is exactly what my appointment was, I. E. First appointment of the day. He told me I could get another doctor and that he owed me no explanation. if you care about your time and your mental health this is not someone you would like to see.

George is a fantastic provider. He is caring, non-judgemental, and an overall very nice provider to work with. He is easy to get in touch with if anything comes up in-between appointments. He has improved my life immensely.

Every month he says something different regarding his plan of treatment. Inconsistent. Tends to anger easily. Have been told that I am more than welcome to go someplace else if I'm not happy with him. I'm stuck because of insurance circumstances. I definitely would noy recommend him.

He changes his mind all the time when treating with medication. He is rude and condescending, he doesn't care that you suffer from anxiety he wants you off of medication that helps you. He gets angry easily when things dont go his way. He wont even fill my prescription monthly

Horrible horrible horrible. This man ruined my life because of his ego. He kept me on a medication that I begged him to take me off - but insisted I stay on it as he refused to put me on anything else- even medication I was on for years. He was supposed to monitor me weekly and did not, with that, I have a forty pound weight gain, and worse mental health issues. I have deteriorated so badly, I don’t leave the house. When I tested a false positive on a urinalysis - in which, the lab supervisor actually called to apologize to me... he refused to help me in any way. I plan on taking legal action ASAP. Do not put your health or life in this mans hands. You will regret it.
