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.

Lasik Surgery
I went here for routine eye exams to start. The experience was great. I requested a consultation for Lasik and had that appointment within the next week. The day of surgery was fantastic. Valerie (Surgery Coordinator/Counselor) was awesome and explained the whole procedure to me. She was kind and caring. Dr. Chotiner is a great surgeon and is extremely knowledgeable. I would recommend him to anyone looking for Lasik.

My experience was great.
I cannot think of anything you have to fix. My experience was great. I would not trust anyone or anywhere else to have done my Lasik.

Getting the laser eye surgery from Dr. Chotiner was a great experience. Not only does he have years of experience, he has great bedside manners, and so does his staff. They do not leave anything out and you are well aware of the entire process. I was already seeing 20/20 at my one day follow-up appointment.

Each person I met was very professional, courteous, and very good at their job. The wait between people was long but each person was very thorough. The day of surgery went very well and each person had their own job to do and did it very well. Surgery went VERY well and was painless. All in all, the whole procedure rates an A+.

I had a fantastic experience at Memorial Eye. The staff are friendly and make you feel at home. You may spend extra time waiting for Dr. Chotiner. He spends the needed time with patients to make them feel comfortable. For me, it is worth the wait. I felt he was invested in my results, rather than just being another surgery. I could not be happier with my results. *Val is the best!!!

Dr Bennett Chotiner performed a PRK enhancement to correct my poor + strip mall Lasik procedure that I had nearby in 2007. Wow what a difference!! I forgot what good vision was till Dr C worked his magic!! I should have had this done sooner and recommend Memorial Eye to all my family and friends. They are the best out there!!
