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. Robert L. is the best provider! If you’re looking for a Psychiatrist I would recommend him. He listens, he is easy to talk to as well, like you would a friend. He listens to me about my problems with my medical issues and day to day life. He is a great mentor to me and caring. If I could give ten stars I would. I’ve never had any issues with him at all.

My mental health provider is excellent. He listened to me and helps develop a treatment plan. When life happens he listens and helps me cope and adjust. He is very accessible and their on-line portal makes communicating directly with him so much easier. I feel like he cares and all my needs are met in a compassionate efficient manner.

After seeing several providers, I found Dr. Robert L. Doyle. He has been amazing to work with. He has worked tirelessly with me to find the right meds for my depression and after some trial and error we have found the right combination! He has stuck with me and never gave up, nor became frustrated with me while trying to find the right meds.

Dr. Robert has been a godsend for me. He goes above and beyond to make sure I’m on the right combination of treatment. He is exceptionally gifted with trying new medications to replace less effective drugs. I’ve been a patient for years now and I’ll never leave. He’s kind, compassionate and always has his patients wellness at heart.

Worst experience
Lacks compassion. Made numerous errors with medication. He seems to have forgotten his oath to "first do no harm". I wouldn't recommend this doctor to anyone.
