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 like dr Asphasia Draga very much, but would not recommend because the waiting room is a little “zoo”. I have waited longer than an hour just to be called into the back treatment rooms. The waiting room gets packed with patients.

Dr. A. Draga is a very competent, caring and kind doctor. She takes the time, understands the problem and explains the issues of your concern in detail. I am over 80 years old & have seen many doctors in my lifetime - dr.draga is the best.

Dr. Aspecia Draga is a very caring compassionate doctor. Dr. Draga takes time to explain everything to her patients and makes sure they understand her diagnosis and plan of treatment. I highly recommend Dr. Draga to anyone needing an opthomologist. Her staff is very professional and follow the example she sets.

I had eye surgery in December of 2018 with Dr. Aspasia Draga to remove a pterygium with conjunctival autograft. Dr. Draga and her staff are the most patient, caring, kind, and professional office I have ever been to. They go above and beyond to make sure their patients are comfortable and receive the best quality of care. I highly recommend this office!

Buyer Beware !! I had cataract surgery 1 year ago and I was still getting bills from the hospital, after I had already paid for my lens . So I called my insurance Carrier. The office originally had told me that my insurance did not cover the lens for the surgery, which was partially true , they covered the cost of the lens , they just didn't cover the "name brand" that this office were using. I was never given this piece of information , Arghhh. So I was out $1200 . I accepted that I was misled.

Dr. Draga was wonderful. My appointment was at 11 am I went their earlier and explained to the receptionist that I had to be some where at 1pm. She explained to me that they see patient by their scheduled time. I waited till 1:15 and I wasn't seen by the doctor. The same receptionist rudely told me to wait for my turn. I left to my other appointment returned back after an hour and saw the doctor. Horrible
