I have several disputes with Dr. Errol Gluck. He does NOT have a license to practice Psychology, or anything for that matter. He lied to me in almost every session and conned me into buying "pharmaceutical grade" nutrition supplements from him.
If you have a dispute with him, please contact the State Attorney General's office and open a complaint.

Like so many others here, I was scammed by "Dr. Gluck". I should have realized he was a fraud during my first visit, but like most others here have said, he is wonderful at giving hope that he can "cure" whatever it is that you came looking for help with, and reinforces it by giving examples of people with much worse problems that he has helped. I only wish I had ended my relationship with him $6,000 sooner. Back then, he was charging $300 per session, most of which seemed shorter than the 50 minutes he claimed them to be. Each time, he claimed that I was hypnotized, although I never was and I don't believe he even had the ability or the skill to actually hypnotize anyone! He is a total fraud and a con man.

He even went so far as to claim that he has quite a few millionaires and even a couple of billionaires as "patients" and that he could refer them to me as customers, and because he was so well trusted by them, they would do business with me just based on his recommendation. He would even ask me if so & so called me, then say well I'm sure he will. This I'm sure was to make me think that I had something to gain by continuing to go back to him.

My advice... go else where! And I'm sure a legitimate therapist would charge less and provide tangible results.

Anyone with half a brain would recognize a fraud and con man as soon as they heard two sentences drooling out of this freaks double-talking mouth. FIRSTLY, when I first heard one of his "commercials" years ago, he claimed to have amassed thousands of clinical hours (I don't recall the exact number, but it was over 100, 000 hours) over the past 30-something years. So I broke out my calculator and did the math. To be able to have accumulated that many hours, he would have had to work 18+ hour days, 7 days a week, with NO breaks, NO vacation and NO sick days. He has since pulled that claim. The SECOND blatant piece of pompous crappola is that he's an EXECUTIVE Life Coach. Wow! EXECUTIVE! Like the President of the United States being the Chief EXECUTIVE Officer! I said to myself immediately, "How full of crap is this guy?" THIIRDLY, his REPEATED use of "Neuro-Plasticity!" Wow again! Sounds impressive, doesn't it? It's DOUBLE-TALK! Total B.S.! FOURTHLY: "I've have succeeded where all others have failed!" He's infallible! Sounds like he's using God's resume! I could go on and on, but those were my first immediate reactions. Every time I hear him, I feel like puking! My opinion of him, based merely on listening to his continuous lines of crap spewing out of his trap, has gone steadily downhill. My strong advise is to stay away from this obvious fraud and liar. I place him in the same category as the other premier FRAUD advertising on WABC and WOR radio, Dr. Eric Braverman! What I don't understand is how these radio stations permit low-lives like these, who prey on the weak, helpless and needy, to advertise on their stations. It was only after repeated trouble with the law that they finally BANNED Braverman. What's it gonna take to stop this GLUCK creature? My guess is that these radio stations are so DESPERATE for Ad dollars that they allow ANYONE on, just as long as they can present the disclaimer "In presenting this show, our station neither endorses nor agrees with any this content or claims." BUYER BEWARE!

Yes, this guy has scared me from the first time I heard him, but after hearing about a dozen of his commercials with the same verbiage over a period of a few months, he really made me take notice when the verbiage suddenly changed, and the tone got very Big Brother-1984...it's as if he were trying to hypnotize you over the radio, eliminating the middle man altogether, Especially in the middle (or tail end?) of a "pandemic" that many people believe has ALREADY been an exercise in Mind Control, Behavior Mod, Gaslighting, and mass "hypnolsis". At that point he came across as not just a greedy fraud, but perhaps a useful tool volunteering to do the Government's bidding in completing the process of Covid Brainwashing. I haven't heard that radical departure commercial lately, but boy do I wish I could access it. Looks impossible. But yeah, I wish he'd go away. It's clear that even his "regular" commercials are highly suspicious, regardless of his claims. And of course, radio in general, weekends in this NY market especially, are ALWAYS a perfect home for con artists. I can think of 3 off the top of my head---Sonny Block ( real estate) Dr. Stuart Berger (Medicine, a total fraud who ran women through his NYC offices w/o even examining them, ascribing ALL their maladies to Candida, and Bill Bresnehan (financial, till someone on the caller line questioned how he could be giving sound advice when he had multiple bankruptcies.

I found dr. Gluck to be in my opinion a fraud at $325 per hour. When I contacted him initially he was convincing that he could help with my issues. Over the next six weeks he tried to hypnotize me over the phone to no avail even though he claimed to be doing this very successfully with others. I feel dr Gluck makes fraudulent claims about his efficacy and I am proof of that. As a testimony to his professionalism when I cancelled one appointment he never contacted me again since he had billed me over $1200 with not a single degree of improvement. He should be investigated for fraud and deception. What is dr Gluck licensed to practice anyway? And what board licensed him if he has a license. Owen McDonnell

We brought our our then teenage daughter to Dr. Gluck after I gave the third degree questions to his staff to find out exactly what his claim were in this area, and based on my daughters issues what he can do for her etc. His staff guaranteed me that he has treated all the issues my daughter had and that it would take only 1 to 5 sessions but the average was 2-3 sessions. At $325 a session, with it not being covered under insurance, this was a big investment but worth it if it worked.
First session I went in with my daughter to go into detail about her issues and hear from him what he felt he can do etc. He spent the session smooshing us and physically complementing us and calling my daughter princess and showing us the photos of his daughters and his beloved dead wife who died of breast cancer. Everything felt fake but we were desperate for help and my daughter said he seemed really nice and wanted to try and continue. I told her dad that Dr. Gluck made all these promises like he was God himself and was oozingly wonderful but I got a weird feeling in the pit of my stomach. My husband said he is not for helping me but for our daughter and if she felt comfortable then that was all that mattered. I was out numbered so I took her to each session and paid very close attention. My daughter shared with Dr. Gluck how I felt about him during their 3rd session, and he told her he did not give a crap what I thought he only cares about her. He continued to undermine me to her to the point that he was creating a rift between her and I.
Along with this, he was talking to my daughter very sexually and she was only a teenager. He told her point blank that she needed to get laid. My daughter told me this because he felt it was a bit creepy but then defended Dr. Gluck saying he tries to be her friend and maybe he is just trying to be cool and on her age group level. I told my husband that this was highly inappropriate and unprofessional, after all she is in there alone with him and he is supposedly hypnotizing her. My daughter told me she never feels hypnotized but that Dr. Gluck promises her in every session that he will cure her, she just needs to keep coming back and he will cure her 100%. After months of weekly therapy, and thousands of dollars, my daughter herself told me she figured out, on her own, that he is nothing but a scam artist as she caught in him so many lies and stories he told and that he would then tell more stories that contradicted his other stories. When she told him he is not helping her as promised he told her she needed medication and he can send her to a Doctor who he uses to dispense prescriptions to his "patients". My daughter questioned his suggestion for pharmaceuticals when he said he can cure her with hypnosis and that there is never a need for pharmaceuticals. He said she needs them and they will make her feel much better and he would sit with her while she takes her first pill and help her through it.
I can go on and on about all that he did to where I think he is a scam artist, fraud criminal, sexual predator, a liar and a whole lot more. He did say he had a bunch of degrees and was giving my daughter psychotherapy as well 10 minutes of hypnosis at the end of every session. He also told us about his regular Victoria Secret models who come to him. This was not a case of a failed experience but something a lot more sinister. I use the word sinister literally. This guy is actually sick in the head. He knows what he is doing. He preys on the desperate and vulnerable. He makes promises and holds the carrot of wellness in front of their nose. He figured out just how to get vulnerable people to spend $325 for a 50 minute session week after week after week. He is a master manipulator. He needs to be in prison...hard core prison.
Oh and for those who don't know it, he also started a dating business where he claims to have 30 plus years of 'personality profiling' and is capable of matching people to find their perfect match. Also claiming to use his own patient data base since it is his patients asking him to match him up with other patients. Highly doubtful but he put a full page ad in the New York magazine. not sure his dating service ever took off but this guy is all over the place, and each time he claims a whole new set of degrees and expertise that looks good for that new venture. 30 years of clinical hypnosis claiming to have put in more clinical hours then anyone in the world (how would he even know that?) then he has 30 years experience in clinical personality profiling for his new dating service. You get the point. By he way, if you see a good review, I would bet money on it that it is fake. He is behind it.

It's strange how everyone on here is so negative. I feel blessed that I overcame all of the setbacks in my life with the help of Dr. Gluck. I have the integrity to stand here and say that It's taken a good amount of time for me to reach the point where I am living my dream but come on people, you need to actually do the work and give real effort, you can start by getting off the internet complaint forums and actually realizing that you are in control of your life.I think if you look at your bills in the mail you'll find yourself getting swindeled out of your money with every new car, every expensive prep school, all those "beauty" products, and expensive dinners, but listen.. Dr. Gluck isn't scamming you. You just don't have any patience. I wish you guys could of stuck it out because your missing out on something special. See ya.

Dr. Gluck is a charlatan. I felt completely taken advantage of as he dragged out my visits, made promises he NEVER delivered on while continually taking my money. I can't believe his employees can look you in the eye each visit. He also locked the door and asked me to wear comfortable clothes and even suggested I don't wear a bra. He claims to treat Victoria Secret models, suggested I loose 10 pounds and had me stand up to check out my body. He says he belongs to a "club" suggesting CIA and is an arms dealer. He promised me he would help with my business, give me job introductions and reduce my medical bills. I feel completely violated and looking in to getting reimbursement.

This guy is a psychopath. He is a fraud and a liar. I went to see him for a few months, for $325 for each session where he would force 10 extra minutes to fill the hour and then resume to charge me $390. Ridiculous. On top of that he lied to me saying that he had 3 PhD's but after doing some research and speaking with the front desk, he has ONE PhD in THEOLOGY. I looked into his background and he has his PhD from an online college, not even an accredited university (Logos Christian College - google it yourself). As soon as I caught on to his lies, he would NOT STOP CALLING ME to get me to come back. He would book appointments with me that I never booked and then resume to charge me for them. At one point I had 9 missed calls from him, 4 voice mails, one voicemail being at 1:00AM! Please leave me alone. If you are a female, he does try to make advances on you and says he will massage you but it grossed me out. He is a predator. STAY AWAY.

I went to him for half a dozen sessions. He drags out interviews so you have to come back because you hope it's actually going to go somewhere. He tried to get me to buy various supplements which I didn't do because I couldn't afford them. While ostensibly addressing my desire for weight loss he had me stand while he felt my body checking on its weight condition. I didn't go back.

I know 2 people who went to him. I personally heard him calling the house and leaving wierd messages at 1 am trying to get them to come back. Some of the things they told me he did not only sound like a con but in my opinion creepy and down right criminal. I found this link while looking to see if anyone else had these experiences also. He also would intimidate her to make her come back. Oh and another thing he was doing was "prescribing" all kinds of pIlls. In reality he had her on vitamins and multiple fat loss pills at once at high prices. Guy is clearly total ###.

Crook is the word that I would use to describe the so called Dr Errol gluck of gluck
Solutions. Thief, con man and manipulator would be a better choice of words to define what this man is really about

Hes a cheat and a conartist even worse a degenerate! Stay away from him. He lied about the supplements he forced upon me, he even hid the scale screen so I wouldn't see that I really didnt lose the weight! Did you ever hear of such low falsehood?

Errol Gluck is a total con artist. He lied to me continually in order to try to keep me coming back for
more sessions. He even said he would become a customer of my business if I would continue to see him. Of course this never happened. He made promises about bringing his clients to my business which never materialized. Stay away from this guy. He is only interested in extracting as much money from you as possible.

I lost 32 pounds with Dr. Gluck last year. SO I'm happy with him. And I had the same concern about license, but he doesn't claim to be a psychologist. He's a license clinical hypnotist and life coach... both of which he's certified to practice. if i wanted to go to a psychologist, i would go to one. Dr. gluck helped me greatly.
