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.

Dr. Abrams treated my granddaughter until she was force into more intense programs by her PCP, school and Mother. Just as Dr. Abrams warned these programs only added to her anxiety, depression and she developed sever OCD. She was put on three different medications which had adverse effects, again just as he warned. I feel if she had been allowed to continued her treatment with Dr. Abrams she would be a normal functioning 13 year old today.

I enjoy coming here to see Dr. Abrams about my problems because he makes me feel better. I naturally had a negative attitude toward life but now I know how to look at things more realistically.

When I was his patient, he helped me a great deal! I was a struggling college student at the time. He not only helped me thrive in college, but beyond. He is sincere, honest and genuinely nice. He is one of the most brilliant man. I have never meet anyone who is so knowledgeable.

He evaluated me for a work related condition. Instead of being uncaring or even challenging, he seemed actually concerned. He spent as much time advising and helping as he did testing me. He is a good guy.

Just left and decided to write this while it was fresh. I’m in the music field - doing well- but it was getting to me. He was like a cross between a music manager and a father. I feel better as I write this. Supreme.

I went for a required evaluation for a new job and wanted to get out of there as soon as possible. He needed up giving me so much helpful advice that I saw him 4 more times. He really is a great guy.
