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.

do not recommend
in my experience, dr. ugarte is not a good psychiatrist. she does not listen to her patients. she overprescribes medications, and doesn’t give you any information on them. i continue to suffer from medical problems today from dr. ugarte’s care when she was my pediatric psychiatrist. i do not recommend.

She does not listen to patient issues and is condescending and judgemental. She doesn’t treat the patient or the parent well and is rude and dismissive. She clearly does not like my daughter (her patient) and makes no attempt to hide it and is letting it interfere with proper treatment of the patient. We will be finding another doctor and would not recommend her to anyone.

Poor communication! Seemed to not believe our behavior reports as parents - More weight was given to her 10 min observations. She accomplished nothing. Planning to discharge a patient that cannot function in school or home is NOT appropriate.
