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. Smallwood is one of the best psychologists I have come across. Not only is he extremely knowledgeable about a vast array of topics, he is able to apply that knowledge to your therapy to show why you should consider other ways of thinking about your own situations. As to the two "1-star" reviews on this site, it appears that the same person wrote both reviews. The keywords are all the same, the dates are extremely similar, and the tone of each comment is almost identical.

Very good, no BS. Listens well and provides guidance. May not always be what you want to hear but the way he challenges you is appropriate. We all need to be appropriately challenged at times to improve and he does a good job. I've referred him to friends and they appreciate his style as well.

I had addressed several concerns with this Doctor and all concerns were bypassed. He did not show concern, empathy, or seem to care for my well being under his care. This resulted in me being put in harms way. Please avoid this Doctor at all costs.
