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’ve been seeing this doctor for years, she should not be licensed to treat eating disorders. I was repeatedly told I was playing games, to just eat, it’s my choice, I know what to do, etc. She made me believe I didn’t need therapy or a dietician and that I should be doing this on my own because I was “smarter than this.” If you start to struggle, she will either threaten to hospitalize you if you’re underweight or she will make you feel guilty for taking up her time and threaten to drop you as a patient. I wouldn’t recommend her if you want real help for your eating disorder, her tactic is just threats. Appointments literally consist of getting weighed, getting interviewed about your eating, and then lectured if you don’t eat the meal plan of 3 meals 3 snacks they give every patient. Honestly, all she cares about is weight gain. I learned nothing from years of attending recurrent appointments.
What went well
  • I felt respected
  • Appointment scheduling
  • Listened & answered questions
  • Staff friendliness
  • Wait times
What could be improved
  • Didn't explain conditions well
  • Appointment was rushed
  • Didn't trust the provider's decisions
