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.

She asked a lot of questions and was mostly interested in my symptoms. She was nice, but refused to refill my Adderall and Xanax, so I'm not going back.

A great provider. She worked very hard to figure out exactly what would work for me and I feel better - which I haven't felt in many years. I was annoyed with her at first, but that was because I thought I knew what I needed. She really knows her stuff and after I stopped resisting her diagnosis and medications, I finally turned the corner. She knows medicines and how the brain works. I was already in therapy, but it was Ms Nicholson who gave me my life back!

Disrespectful, degrading, an absolute nightmare to deal with. She was more interested in pushing a medication agenda that she wanted versus listening to me.
