Dr. John Michael Crabtree, PhD

He's congenial but dangerous. Don't be fooled into thinking he is a kind, trustworthy old man who has your child's best interests in mind. Do these things to protect your child: Take notes during your meetings. Note his questions and your responses. Carefully record any questions that seem inappropriate and/or unprofessional. Keep every form of communication between you and Crabtree including texts, emails and digital file sharing. If you have questions or concerns about his conduct or the process, be sure to pose your inquiries to him in writing. Provide documentation to support all of your claims and concerns for your child's welfare meticulously so that when he fails to observe that evidence in favor of his manufactured narratives and he fails to comply with the court order by submitting his recommendations without completing the evaluations, you can prove his professional misconduct and bias! Demand that you be permitted to possess a copy of his Executive Summary and the… body of his report. This does not include copies of the psychological evaluations, if completed. (He gets away with this abuse because it costs client's hundreds of dollars to review these reports in the presence of their attorney so a careful evaluation of his conclusions are often financially prohibitive.) Finally, if your child is not treated with the greatest of concern, if he demonstrates any bias, if he fails to complete the ordered evaluations... Report him to the licensing board of Pennsylvania by completing a web search for "how to file a complaint against a PA licensed professional", click on the PALS website and scroll down to FILE A COMPLAINT. Your child isn't the first, and they won't be the last...

The WORST!! Crooked dr if you care about your children do NOT use this dr!! He ruins families! Read all the NEGATIVE reviews about him before using him or you will be SORRY!!! He’s just like his scam artist son!

Great doctor

Doctor Crabtree is a evil Monster and will be exposed for who he genuinely is. This man hates women and has ruined families. I will make it my personal Goal to reach out to the families he’s ruined so I can help them SUE HIM!!!

Please don’t use this dr if you care about your children! He has NO interest in their well being, he only cares about the money. He will lie and fabricate his own testimony.

If you care about your children or family you will STAY AWAY from this Dr. Him and his wife are the only court appointed child psychologist in Washington County and what he does to families is just heartbreaking. He only cares about the money and will make up his own version to suit his own needs and pockets.

This “doctor” does NOT have your children in his best interest! He will not better your children and only do what’s best for his own pocket. AVOID!

All he cared about was his paycheck. He did not even complete the required evaluation or send an invoice yet was demanding payment!! He was totally biased!!

Dr Crabtree was appointed by the court to oversee my husband’s custody case. He spent limited time meeting with my husband and the children. He also never disclosed a financial relationship he currently has in place with my husband’s ex-wife’s lawyer. He is close to her lawyer which we found out after he recommended less custody. We asked the judge for a new psychologist based on the fact that their financial relationship was never disclosed. As expected, we were denied. Overall, his ethics are extremely questionable and he seems to have complete disregard for the lives he ruins
