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.

No drama just accurate information
Dr. Jenkins presents as professional, calm, curious and concise. He was the ideal doctor for me. I would highly recommend Dr. Jenkins.

×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Jenkins II?
Very stubborn and dismissive doctor who somehow, as a psychiatrist, lacks basic empathy or at least does not show it. Very cold and belittled me for legitimate concerns about my health. While having a breakdown and crying in front of him and his assistant due to his comments, he told me that they were 'done with me' and asked me to leave the room. I felt even more kicked down when I was already at my lowest. Refuses to consider anything outside of his already pre-established position. My experience with this doctor made me appreciate so much more doctors who actually fulfill their basic role.

He’s very stubborn about giving me new meds and he has been manipulating my medications that are not based on our agreement. He made me stay longer than I should. Call him a businessman not doctor.
