Your trust is our top concern.

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.

Look at reviews before making an appointment this Dr. She was on a list provided by my PCP's office that accepted my insurance. I only had one visit with this doctor. It was really just an expensive out-of-pocket ordeal. Availability was fair, ~ 2 weeks out. The appointment was in a residential area so it was confusing to find. I have never had a doctors appointment in a home before. The initial visit was not constructive or thorough. I was basically referred back to my PCP for follow-up.

From the first phone call she was trying her best to not take on my son as a patient. I was at my wits end and looked for a MH provider who could manage his medicine for severe OCD for over 9 months. Got a referral to her, and all she did was tell me all the reasons she couldn't see him, but then said if I brought all his IEP's and medical records she would see just my husband and I. We did this, then she agreed to see my son. She decreased his current meds, saw him 2 times, then when he finally

A highly dangerous doctor, who gives out drugs like Risperadol for something as simple as anxiety. Be careful and do not send your childminder to this woman!
