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.

Highly recommend. Very helpful.
Dr. Katz is the only Psychiatrist I've ever seen, and I've had no reason to look elsewhere. He confirmed earlier diagnoses from my psychologist and investigated the course of treatment as had been prescribed by my general physician. We have made a few changes to my Rx routine over the past few years and I find him easy to talk to and helpful with explanations and empathy. He does not use email or text messaging. He files with insurance but asks for cash for any patient payment obligations. Not a big deal. He's been very flexible with me. I think he practices solo without other providers or staff. He will guide you to others in areas where he is not a practitioner (e.g., CBT).

Dr Katz In Norwell
I have been seeing Dr Katz for 3 years now. He has no other staff. It's just him. He is very kind and is comfortable to talk to. I have had therapy and a psychiatrist to aid me in my insomnia for decades. By far, he is one of the best. If he has room for you, I would use him. Great experience.

I was a patient of Dr. Katz for many many years and I felt like he really cared about me. I have been suffering from severe major depressive disorder as well as anxiety, CPTSD, and severe anxiety . I am sure it couldn't have been easy to deal with a patient like myself but he always made me feel as if i was never a bother and I had to call often. He always listened to everything I said and was very professional and kind. I would highly recommended him to my family and friends.
