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.

Coward and a weasel
This so called is a coward. He uses his clinicians to do his dirty work. I would not trust him at all.

I found Dr. Yergen to be thorough, caring and attentive. I felt truly heard when I spoke with him. I had a very good experience and recommend him without hesitation.

I have been seeing psychiatrists for 40 years. Dr Yergen has to be the most condescending, rude , nasty Dr. I have ever experienced.

Trauma is real, not "imagiary". The bully claims that trauma victims are "more than just a little bit paranoid", as if witnesses are liars. Yeah, right! What happened to "trauma informed care"?

Saw him for a few months. All he did was listen and write notes. I wasn't getting any better but since I wasn't worse, he made no changes to my meds. The key phrase is I wasn't getting better. Went to see someone else and totally got better.

Young doctor, not experienced and not willing to listen to his patients. He may be a better doctor in a different specialty, but as a psychiatrist he is just terrible. He is rude and condescending to his patients. Not only in my personal experience, but I have seen him with other patients and he tends to escalate situations of people having anxiety. It's disappointing to see people looking for help only to be faced with doctors who make them feel unsafe.
