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.

Cataract surgery went bad.
Dr. Huang and his fellow operated on my left eye but broke my capsule. I woke up 2 hours later and was sent home. I had nothing but problems over the next 1.5 years and because the lens he put in my eye was not centered it wore away part of my iris. He did not tell me this was happening despite numerous inflammations and treatment with steroids. When I complained he said everything looked centered and good. I finally went to another doctor who showed me that the lens was at an angle and was rubbing against my iris. He did a complicated surgery to properly suture a new lens in place. I have a lot of glare due to the thin iris and my left eye will never be the same. I got the feeling he was just getting the numbers and did not want to be responsible for fixing the mistake he made.

great docture
I thought he was what an eye doctor should be. he is caring and smart. I trust his judgement and would not allow just any doctor to make 7 holes in my eye with a laser to correct my drainage issue! Dr Huang is top notch

He is friendly and communicates well. His thought process is very logical and intellectual. I wish the wait time was shorter though. I had to wait for 30 minutes in the waiting room and then another 25 minutes in the exam room before he walked in.
