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.

Dr Gottfried has by far been the best experience for our family. Not only does he consistently show how he is the most competent of all the psychiatrists in this community but also reveals the most compassionate of human beings. we should applaud his competency and never let him go.

Let’s parents use children as a pawn during the visit. Chooses to side with the mother who wants to prescribe pills agreeing that no other avenues should even be looked in to. Telling parents that other people in his life aren’t warranted an opinion because they aren’t “family”. Despite them having numerous education degrees
