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.

I have only seen Dr. Balfanz once but I have seen many psychiatrists and I can already tell he is head and shoulders above most of his profession. Kind, understanding, an attentive listener, considers multiple factors critically without judgement. I feel very lucky to have found him.

Dr Belfanz is the doctor my daughter has needed for the past 10 years. He has taking care of her like no Other doctor has. He is patient and kind very understanding and he really does care about his patients. He explains things so we can understand clearly as to what we need to do. It hasn’t been an easy road this past year but I can honestly say my daughter is a new woman today. Thank you Dr Belfanz.
