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.

Doctor Allison Smith is very professional and skilled in helping me recover from my right eye condition that i had after a nights sleep May 3 2019. My sight was very distorted and i had my right side of my face hurtful as was my forehead. Dr Smith encouraged me to trust in her care and indeed i fully appreciated her medical attention. My recover as she stated would be a natural self correction and the full recovery of my right took 18 months with each month showing positive results. Thanks Dr Allison Smith

Dr. Smith was amazing! Wonderful, down-to earth bedside manner. Very intelligent and professional yet so personable. Took the time I needed to explain the plan of care and answer my questions. THE best eye doctor I have been to in my life. I have nothing but praise for this physician.

After seeing numerous pediatric eye surgeons we choose for Dr. Smith to operate on our daughter. As a fellow physician, Dr. Smith came highly recommended by peers and she did not disappoint. She connected with our daughter and made her feel at ease. Our daughter is doing outstanding thanks to Dr Smith. She is top notch and I recommend her above all others. My daughter agrees :-)

Please reconsider seeing another doctor. Dr. Smith performed eye surgery on our son and it did not work. He suffered a lot of pain and he is no better off. This could be a long sad story...I only want to admonish all who read this review to seek help some where else!
