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.

She made things worse. By far.
I came to Dr. Margaret because she claims she specializes in neurology and the specific tumor I deal with and it’s symptoms. She told me she would set up a contingency plan if I experienced an episode from the tumor and when I called the nurse hotline panicking a few times she not only ignored me but dropped me as a client for repeatedly calling. She also charges $400 an hour LOL and usually doesn’t have time for the entire session. She’s very condescending and never remembers what I’ve told her. I remember thinking “what is SHE on?” Save your money because there are a plethora of better providers in the area- I highly suggest Elite DNA. Dr. Lovett is another great provider at Margaret’s same practice just don’t get suckered into being seen by her. She loves to be unreachable and lower medication without notice when you’re going through life traumas too. Wish I could give less than a star. Can you die from a dr being so horrible? Cause it feels like you can die from it.

Run While You Still Can
I was a patient of Dr. Forszpaniak for over two years. During this time I received less than 5 callbacks and was unable to reach the office under any circumstances. Even while calling the office repeatedly after a death in my family to make sure my medication was called in on time I never got a callback. Not only that, she lowered the medication dose without consulting me and actually put a delay on the medication. During a global pandemic, she raised her prices from $150 per hour to almost $400 per hour, with most of my appointments being cut short by her saying "she's gotta jet". At first, I trusted her and felt like she had my back, but after seeing her for a year and a half she seemed to brush off my concerns and only seemed to focus on money I 100% feel like I was not being cared for as a patient, but treated more like a potential liability and a paycheck. The more I saw her the less I felt like I could tell her my actual feelings without being looked at like a freak.

This doctor probably saved my life. I have never had a psychiatrist help me so much or take time to listen and understand me. Instead of interjecting only what has been taught in school or residency, she listens to you and responds as if she’s talking to a person. She is professional yet warm. I had tried 30+ meds and therapy before seeing her but she helped me heaps by actually coming to a correct diagnosis WITH me. She is the cream of the crop!!! Go to her!

I've been seeing Dr. Forszpaniak for the last 18 months. She always makes me feel comfortable and takes her time when we discuss my issues. I'd recommend her to anyone.

I would never recommend this woman and I hope she sees this. She likes to twists her patients words around when talking about medication to make them look bad. She’s extremely disorganized and rambles on so much that you have to ask questions more than once bc she’s horrible at explaining things. She is unsympathetic, misunderstanding, and ignorant. If you don’t want a psychiatrist judging you, don’t go to this woman. I just got back from an appt w her, she should know who is leaving this review
