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.

VEEG interpretation, Epilepsy symptoms, Autism
Telehealth
This is my personal experience which maybe different from yours. My son is special needs with autism and developmental delay. It is difficult to get an appointment after new medication is initiated or after VEEG. Test results are communicated 2 months later. Refuse to provide information about Frontal Lobe or Temporal lobe epilepsy or what would look like if a generalized seizure. The symptoms observed and shown are interpreted and opinion as 'behavior due to Autism' when symptoms exhibit what appears to be epilepsy. Would not identify those symptoms exhibited as epilepsy. Abrupt and sudden onset with change in the EEG but it is interpreted as 'normal' and interpreted as 'motion, muscle artifact'. I am in the process of a second opinion and she would NOT share information when asked about frontal and temporal lobe seizures. My son's sudden, explosive head jerking, blank stare, squeal, and sudden behavior changes are all ignored as 'behavior' because he has a diagnosis of Autism.
