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 seeing Dr. Tellioglu for over a year now and he has been tremendously helpful in getting me through one of the more difficult times in my life. In addition to that he has also given me tools to help manage my anxiety moving forward. I highly recommend Dr. Tellioglu if you are struggling with anxiety, depression, or panic disorder.

Waste of time

I was unable to use simple text messaging systems to message him in between appointments. During the appointments he didn't really care what I had to say and would just try to keep me booked for another appointment. He kept trying to get me to take this expensive drug even when I told him it was not helping.

Just not a Dr but a friend & professional
I've been a patient of DR Tahir for several years he has helped me stay clean and has helped me become the man I am today. He is punctual and always has his notes if you are looking for a long term relationship with a DR you don't need to look any further DR Tahir is one of the best

Never examined me
Dr. Tellioglu NEVER EXAMINED ME! How can he state that I don’t have any psychiatric impairments! I’m on a leave of absence due to mental health issues that MY Psychiatrist recommended. I am NOT Dr. Tellioglu’s patient he has never examined me. He works with Sedgwick a company that my employer hired to review my doctor’s notes to see if I had psychiatric impairment to continue my leave of absence! Dr. Tellioglu claims I have no psychiatric impairment. My doctor that is a psychiatrist has diagnosed me with mental health issues. My doctor examined me. I was never examined by Dr. Tellioglu so how can he say I don’t have any impairments. My doctor and my therapist examine me and provided sufficient documents that state my impairments. Dr. Tellioglu diagnosis is not sufficient and inappropriate. This is very heartbreaking that a doctor that has never examined me say I don’t have any psychiatric impairment. Don’t work for a company that doesn’t let you examine the employee yourself

Dr Tellioglu had left his practice with helping those in drug dependencies, I believe, due to a disagreement with status quo on what he could and could not do when it comes to the care of his patients.

He's been the very best doc I've ever seen in my life and with no warning, he's not with lifespan anymore and no one will tell you why and I can't find any info & I'm very upset as he loved his job and wouldn't just leave his patients!
