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 been going here for 5 years! Dr. Reyes is very sweet. She actually cares and wants to make sure of it. I was having trouble adjusting to my meds and she suggested gene-sight which is a genetic test which can show you what antidepressants are good for your genes. Turns out I was prescribed meds in the red which is why I wasn't responding. This is no fault of the doctors because its very trial and error with prescribing psych meds. She has been so nice in accommodating my needs being in grad school and moving to a different state temporarily. She is very good and there is no other like her in the area. The wait is sometimes long so get there early, but by no means should the wait be held against the doctor and I see a lot of negative comments talking about the office wait. This is the result of poor office management and nurses deciding when and when not to triage a patient. If there is an issue with the wait please don't hold against Dr. Reyes.

I've been Dr Reyes' patient for 4 months. She remembers the details of what I say & what I need. She is eager to help find solutions, both behavioral correction advice & medication, to lessen the troubles & difficulties that I tell her I experience. The patient's wait time is not her fault, because she is kind enough to accept patients on Medicaid, which of course increases the number of patients queue in her office waiting room. She has competent professionalism. I highly recommend her.

She has helped me tremendously with medications that keep me balanced. She is good doctor and excellent in her field. If you are looking for narcotics and she deems it not necessary to prescribe she will not give it to you. She helps patients and does dot harm them. Thank you Dr. R

Very likely to recommend to family and friends. Accommodates me and gives me what I need based on my circumstances. Wait time is bearable and the process of getting my scripts is seamless. Keep up the good work doctor Reyes!

It is rare to find a doctor with integrity of character. She is getting bad reviews because she refuse to give drugs to addicts. There are a lot of substance abuse clinic and methadone around the area. Sr Reyes is a caring doctor who will refuse to do harm to patients

I'm not going back to that place ever again. I Waited for almost 3 hours! Other patients waited super long too! I was told that the doctor got there late and there were other issues... Seriously?! People worked at the front desk were loud and unorganized. The doctor was super slow and almost fell asleep at some point... like she’s stoned or something... She repeated asking me the same questions that I just answered a few seconds ago... Everything was a mess... Unbelievable!
