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 am grateful to have found Dr. Lavigne. He goes beyond simply prescribing meds and really makes an effort to understand and delve into the roots of your dysfunction like a therapist/psychiatrist. I wholly recommend Dr Lavigne.

I spent a number of unfortunate years in the negligent care of Dr. Gregory LaVigne. Be sure you understand the difference between psychiatrist and psychologist. I never realized I was in the wrong place and most definitely the wrong person. Had he been a decent man with a modicum of integrity he could have pointed that out and help get me to the right person. I still want to throw up when I think of him. He’s the worst person. No one would ever believe what a lowlife he could be in private sessions. He’s all about the money. He could truly care less about helping people.
