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.

This is the most EVIL doctor you can find! He doesn’t care about your problem all he cares about is money and himself!!!!!!! He wouldn’t even piss on you if you’re on fire!

I was made to feel like an addict because I have ADHD and need medication to gather my thoughts enough to even try to sit down and apply for a job. I was told that because I asked for a letter proving I was seeing him I could no longer return, via text, and on top of that even though I asked for coping mechanisms for my anxiety and was more than willing to talk told that I was just there for drugs. Getting meds was a last ditch effort to get my life on track.

Dr. Willett means the world to meI! My debilitating emotional disorder continues to perplex every mental health professional I've come into contact with since the age of 14. By standard I at best should live medicated and hope to die of old age. Dr. Willett lead me through self guided improvement for 6 years. He prescribed a successful sustainable treatment plan. I am now a collegeGrad NonProfit leader Mother of 4 Armywife valued daughter and friend. I would have died without Dr. Willett

Dr. Willett is awesome. I've seen other psychiatrist and they are so "detached" and just want to write your script and send you on your way. I found Dr. Willett very compassionate, understanding and willing to answer all of my questions as well as ask me a ton about myself. I walked out of there knowing for sure that I am in good hands. For once, I am happy about going to see a Dr. to help me with my bi-polar.

Dr Willett would not take payment over the phone for copayment and delayed my prescription for over one month while in collection for $20
