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.

Dr Belachew had done cataract surgery for me--I am very satisfied.

Dr. Belachew is always pleasant and attentive. She even got a particularly skillfully staff member to do a diagnostic test over when they couldn't get the results she needed so I would not have to go downtown to complete it, and the practice was VERY busy that day!

When Dr. Belachew first started working at the Federal Way office she was not personable. This visit was 100% better. She took her time and discussed my issues.
