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.

Don’t walk, RUN!
Do NOT recommend!!! If I could give zero stars I would! If you have any questions feel free to message me and I’ll provide my experience with this “psychologist” with notes and proof!!! He does not have his patient’s best interest at heart!

Dr. Rathjens is a knowlegable, caring, and effective medical provider. He employed cognitive behavioral approaches to managing my gereralized anxiety disorder, enabling me to improve significantly, in concert with pharmecutical intervention from my psychiatrist. He remembers particulars about my personal and medical history, and his "we'll get through this" demeanor are keys to a positive outcome. I can't recommend him too highly.
