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.

He was arrogant and condescending. He was also dismissive of my child's previous diagnoses and spoke poorly of her treating specialists, who happen to be his colleagues at Children's. I would never take my child to see him again nor would I recommend him to anyone else. While I suspect he is a bright man, his ego will keep him from ever being more than a mediocre doctor at best.

×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Verbsky?
From birth to age 5 my daughter saw about 8 different doctors to treat very unusual chronic symptoms. Within 15 minutes of our first visit, Dr. Verbsky correctly diagnosed our daughter with a rare auto immune disorder. For the past 8 plus years, she has been a patient of Dr. Verbskys and is doing remarkably well. I am convinced that without his diagnosis, she would certainly not be living the quality of life she lives. I would highly recommend Dr. Verbsky to anyone who would ask.

Dismissive of my daughter's other diagnoses. Made us feel like we were wasting his time.
