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. Houser has a wonderful “bedside manner”. He is attentive and listens to the patients need. He likes to get to know the patient and treat the whole person and not just a couple of symptoms. He has great empathy for those dealing with mental health crisis. He along with my psychologist literally saved me!

I love Dr. Houser and Behavioral Strategies staff so much. I have been a patient for 15 years and I love everything about him.. aside from the appointment wait time (which he can not know as psciatric patients have many varying unforeseen needs).
