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.

Worst psychiatrist on the planet. I’d rather suffer with mental illness than have him treat me. He doesn’t listen, has his own agenda, and only cares about his own liability and money. He’s a joke of a doctor and a terrible human being.

Dr. Would only spend 20 seconds with me and REFUSED to believe me when I told him the antidepressant he put me on was giving me horrible side effects. I literally felt like I was going to die and also felt like I was having a heart attack. He took away my anxiety meds that were working and put me on anxiety meds that did absolutely nothing for my anxiety but he wouldn't listen when I told him. I was having non stop anxiety for the 18 days he kept me in Del Amo Hospital and I did not sleep the entire time I was there. He also kept insisting it could not be the antidepressant that was giving me the horrible reaction (I felt like I was put on speed, I was shaking, my heartrate was through the roof so much so it felt like I was going to have a heart attack. also felt like I had overdosed on the 9 medications he had me on)  He then proceeded to force me to keep taking it at just at a slightly lower dose..the exact same reactions happened. I told him again and again but he refused to listen.
