We strive to keep the reviews trustworthy, honest & fair.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

I’ve seen Dr Franklin for 17+ years. He’s the best there is . He’s helped me through some of the lowest times in my life. An exceptional psychiatrist. He’s gone above and beyond. Don’t make them any better. A+++

JUDGEMENTAL and HURTFUL I only met with Dr. Franklin once and he is the only psychiatrist I have ever seen. Several times in our short meeting, he made faces (almost cringing) at my responses to his questions. Some of his comments I found highly offensive and belittling. I left feeling judged, confused, and far more hurt and vulnerable than I had before walking into that office. My advise? RUN the other way so you do not wind up walking out with an experience like mine.
