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.

I have been a patient of Dr Pani for a few years after having been recommended by my optometrist. He has excellent patient skills and does not hesitate to explain everything fully, rather than being "skimpy" with info, as some doctors act with their patients. I would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone for care.

I took my mother in for her macular degeneration issues. I was VERY happy with the staff and Dr. Pani. He explained all of our options very well. The receptionist there is one of the best I have ever encountered.

I was having eye issues, I was directed to retina specialist by my primary care eye doctor. Of all people I met during this experience, one person was pleasant - All others were neither pleasant nor unpleasant nor added any comfort or showed any empathy at all. There was no explanation for any of the tests or drops being administered. Ditto for when I sat down with the doctor. Not really concerned that I couldn't see that well out of my right eye..."come back in a month". Handed me a pamphlet
