If you’re looking to qualify for an Emotional Support Animal online and can’t decide among all of the options out there, you’ve come to the right place.

Unfortunately, as the popularity of ESAs has grown, so has the spread of ESA scams and fake documentation. Reviews are one helpful way to determine whether an ESA service is legitimate (and we’re proud of the glowing reviews from our clients). However, the best way to avoid being scammed is by being knowledgeable about ESA laws.

At ESA Doctors, we are advocates for ESA owners and their rights. We love educating clients about ESA rules so they can protect themselves from all of the false and misleading information about ESAs on the internet. Our goal is for everyone that uses our service to feel confident, safe and taken care of. To learn more about ESA Doctors, keep reading!

Is ESA Doctors a reliable and legitimate website?

The service was so fast, comprehensive, and compassionate – I will always use ESA DOCTORS for my ESA assistance needs. I loved how personalized the experience was, I felt very cared for. Thank you so much for a second year of reliable, empathetic support!

ESADoctors.com is a legitimate website that helps people who suffer from an emotional or mental illness to seek the support they need online by assisting them in finding a licensed healthcare professional based on their state. ESA Doctors is a trusted and reliable source for ESA services. We know the ESA process can be intimidating – picking the right service and facing your landlord or airline can be scary. ESA Doctors is also sensitive to the fact that our clients suffer from mental health and emotional issues. That is why we treat each client with care and integrity. Much of our business comes from customers who share their experiences with their loved ones. It’s very meaningful to us that our clients come back to us year after year and also trust us with friends and family members they have referred to us.

Since 2015, ESA Doctors have helped thousands of ESA owners qualify for legitimate ESA letters. The only legally credible form of ESA documentation is an ESA letter written by a licensed healthcare professional. ESA Doctors connects clients to online licensed providers who are knowledgeable about ESA rules and can write ESA letters for qualifying clients.

ESA Doctors also publishes extensively regarding ESA laws, including the Fair Housing Act, the Air Carrier Access Act, so that our clients are well informed and confident when facing their landlord or airline. Our mission is to advocate for ESA owners and their rights, and to make professional help accessible and affordable for anyone suffering from a mental illness or emotional disability.

Our reviews are third-party verified

You can find reviews from actual, verified clients here. We’re thrilled to have a 5-Star Excellence Award from Shopper Approved. The comments that clients leave us are wonderfully kind and generous. We know our clients may struggle with issues like depression, anxiety, phobias and post-traumatic stress disorder so we offer compassionate service and try to make the ESA process as smooth as possible.

ESA Doctors was the perfect service for me during quarantine while I was unable to see my regular therapist and needed a letter for housing my ESA dog. The support team responded quickly when I needed modifications to the letter and to add and extra form. I highly recommend it and it is fully legit, unlike other online services!

How can I trust that ESA Doctors is a trustworthy, verified service?

ESA Doctors has been a trusted and reliable source for ESA services since 2015. We partner with an independent third party, Shopper Approved, to ensure that the reviews we display are 100% legitimate. We take care to ensure that any reviews we collect are from real, verified clients.

ESA Doctors knows the ESA process can be intimidating – picking the right service and facing your landlord can be scary. We’re also sensitive to the fact that our clients suffer from mental health issues. That is why we and the licensed professionals we work with value privacy, empathy, and strict adherence to the latest ESA laws. Much of our business comes from word of mouth and repeat customers. It’s very meaningful to us that our clients come back to us year after year and also trust us with friends and family members they have referred to us.

We also never use high-pressure tactics to boost review statistics – we know that sharing your ESA experience is a personal decision. We value client confidentiality and understand there is still an unfortunate stigma surrounding mental illness that worries some clients. In addition, we understand that recalling one’s past history can sometimes be triggering. We are grateful when clients decide to share their stories so others can find the help they need too. For clients that do wish to leave us a public review, we ensure they are properly verified through independent third-party controls.

I have used ESA Doctors for the last three years, in two different states and they have been wonderful. We have done a lot of moving around due to working with Military and if I had any questions for ESA Doctors, they were able to answer. I have recommended their services to many and will continue to
do so.

Industry experts have reviewed our service

Notable industry experts have reviewed our service and give us high praise. Dogster has said, “As a leading provider of ESA letters, ESA Doctors is one of the best places to get legitimate documentation for your pet…If there’s one thing that stands out about ESA Doctors, it’s their passion for advocacy. This is a company that wants you to get the accommodations you deserve and they offer so much support throughout the entire process.”

Are ESA letters obtained online legitimate?

Yes, an ESA letter obtained from an online remote therapist is just as useable as a letter you would get from a therapist in person. More therapists than ever are providing their services online and making access to professional assistance more democratic.

Remote services are ideal for those with limited means since in-person therapists can be prohibitively expensive. Online services can also be a godsend for people with busy schedules, from working moms with full-time jobs, students, and people with multiple daily commitments. We have had clients who have anxiety about meeting a therapist in person or have limited mobility, and they are relieved to find they can seek help from the comforts of their home.

We are proud that our service has made consulting with a licensed professional more accessible to people suffering from a mental or emotional disability.

Christian

This is simple and easy and I love that I don’t have to call a local therapist to come into their office because I feel weird about talking with people face-to-face about my issues.

How can I start the ESA process?

If you are interested in qualifying for an ESA, the best way to start is by having a talk with a mental health professional you have an existing relationship with. If you don’t have a therapist or are having trouble finding one, affording one, or scheduling a visit, we can help connect you to a licensed professional that works remotely.

Your first step is to fill out our ESA Questionnaire. Next, ESA Doctors will connect you with a licensed healthcare professional that can help determine whether an ESA is right for you. If your provider determines that you qualify for an ESA, they will issue you an ESA letter that can be presented to your landlord or airline.

Mrs. Q

Everything went pretty quickly, with I love. I received email from an LMHP and they informed me of what else needed to be done. It happened in a timely manner. It’s a very simple process. Thankful and appreciative.

How does ESA Doctors keep ESA owners informed?

ESA Doctors publishes extensively regarding ESA laws, including the Fair Housing Act, the Air Carrier Access Act, so that our clients are well informed and confident when facing their landlord or airline. Our mission is to advocate for ESA owners and their rights, and to make professional help accessible and affordable for anyone suffering from a mental illness or emotional disability.

I was referred to your company by a friend in my building. Your team was professional and they helped me when my landlord was giving me problems. I am now living with my ESA dog and grateful that I can live with my best friend. Thank you.

I have been using this service for almost 5 years without any issues. Efficient service.

Why should I choose ESA Doctors?

We think we’re the best option for a number of reasons. First and foremost, we connect clients to healthcare professionals that are licensed for their State. That is the only way to get a legitimate ESA letter to present to your landlord. The friendly licensed professionals we work with are knowledgeable about ESAs and are able to provide authentic and effective ESA documentation.
What makes an ESA letter valid?

A valid ESA letter under federal guidelines can only come from a licensed healthcare provider and must contain specific content. If an ESA service provider is promising you a certificate or registration that will officially designate your pet as an ESA, you should be aware that these things cannot substitute for a valid ESA letter. Some companies will offer ESA letters but cut corners and omit important details – for example, by working with therapists that are not properly licensed.

Unfortunately, the increasing popularity of ESAs has also meant a proliferation in the number of unscrupulous providers that offer fake ESA documentation or fraudulent ESA letter services. 

ESA Doctors can connect you to licensed professionals that are able to provide valid ESA letters that you can present to your landlord or airline.
What can I do with my legitimate ESA letter from ESA Doctors?
A legitimate ESA letter will allow you to live with your ESA in your home (even in a no-pet building), without any fees, deposits, or breed restrictions.

THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH! I was worried about whether I could keep my ESA dog and it was a pretty anxious time. These guys were so nice and helped me navigate the approval process. They really know about ESA laws and gave me helpful tips. I have lived with my best friend in two apartment complexes without any issues, words cannot express my gratitude!! :)

We also know that the ESA process can be tough – it’s not easy seeking help for a mental health issue or dealing with a difficult landlord who hates pets. Our online client support team members are knowledgeable and compassionate, and are real people – you will never deal with a bot or a customer service center located in another country.
