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.

Diagnosed me correctly in 90 minutes after 20 years of several misdiagnosis ... Really kind and not intimidating whatsoever. I trust Dr. Smith’s medication recommendations and I can always reach him if something feels off and I need a sooner appointment. He explains the chemistry behind his decisions very clearly and leaves room for patient made decisions. Great guy!

I have been seeing Dr. Smith for about 2 years and I have never had a more caring/knowledgeable psychiatrist. Unfortunately, I have seen too many doctors but I can say he is absolutely the best and is also the most responsive doctor which is so rare to find! Thank you Dr. Smith :)

I was suffering from severe clinical depression for a year, and was seen by several doctors who tried but were unable to help me. I feel that Dr Smith saved me! 2 weeks after going to him I was back to my old self. I HIGHLY recommend him.
