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 love this Dr. and her receptionist! I have always been greeted and treated with the utmost dignity and respect at every and all visits. In fact I drive 6 towns away just to see them! I have never had a long wait, and when others are there I have never seen an ounce of disrespect. She is great at what she does!

Dr. King has made my life functional and has prescribed the appropriate doses of a balanced ssri along with adhd medicine. My life is now fun and productive. Best “shrink” I ever had. (Prettiest too)

Dr. King is an excellent doctor. Extremely compassionate and truly cares about her patients. She is accomodating and smart. Her office manager can occasionally seem abrupt but in actuality is quite kind and funny.

Dr. King is a superb practitioner, and is always available to take my calls and works hard for no compensation to get contact insurers for authorizations and to get the pharmacies to get the prescriptions for me. Very helpful to me. Thank you Dr. King and her assistant Lisa.

Dr. King is one of the finest most caring psychiatrist i have had the pleasure to know. Thoughtful, always returns calls and works hard without compensation to work with insuers and pharmacies for pre approval of prescriptions. The review of August is false, and she was not reprimanded for "heavy-handed prescribing". Her ex-husband complained to the Dept. All she did was get prescriptions for her kids in a pinch. Probably every doctor does it.

Dr king is phenomenal at understanding patients needs. She takes the time to listen and genually cares about the health of get patients. I have been seeing her for 5 years and recommend her to anyone who can appreciate a practice that has their finger on the pulse of patient needs. Lisa Dr kings' Secretary, is super sweet and runs the office efficiently! I moved out of state and still see Dr King even though my insurance doesn't cover out of state Mental Health Practices.

I would definitely recommend Dr. King. The office is immaculate, and her colleague that works the front desk is pleasant, funny, and helps take the anxiety out of the visits. The doctor herself is kind and understanding, and I don't forsee needing a new doctor for some time.
