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.

Didn't Feel Seen or Heard
After being diagnosed with ADHD nine years ago by my longterm therapist, my usual tools to work through symptoms stopped working. His counselor who did my screening questioned me for hours and then told me verbatim, "it doesn't appear you have this issue because you had good grades at times." The stereotype that a person has to fail at every class shouldn't be perpetuated by someone with a counseling background. I stuck with Dr. K for a few months because I had other issues I needed medication for, and he said we could revisit screening. I offered to sign a release for my therapist's case notes, but was told it wasn't necessary. I'd wait a half hour + past my scheduled times. Then wham bam, in and out with him barely looking at me and never getting to know me. I stuck around too long because I was afraid it would look like I was doctor shopping. I withdrew from school that semester because my head was swimming. I found an amazing new provider and am hating that I didn't leave sooner.

Probably about the worst staff possible. I liked my councilor but Dr Kong was very non caring about actually solving the problem. His office staff is absolutely horrid and rarely has any idea of what’s going on. They would rather argue than help solve the situation.

The office staff is rude, and is unwilling to work with a patient's primary care physician.
