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 prescribed Klonopin for over 10 years and it pretty much ruined my life.

I've had a wonderful experience with Dr. Gardner. He diagnosed my bipolar II where 6 months of other therapists and psychiatrists could not. I was in an intensive outpatient program (diagnosed with panic disorder) for four months before I went outside it and found Dr. Gardner. I was lucky and responded immediately to the new meds. Within a week I was a new person. There have been, and still are, bumps in the road, but it's night and day compared to where I was two months ago. Highly recommend.
