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.

Had to have cysts removed on eyelids. Dr. Stark and his assistants were professional and helpful. However, front desk employees are not friendly at all. Equipment lighting faulty had to go to 3 different rooms until everything was ok. Not sure if I want to return.

Unfriendly staff - not knowledgeable. Had several tests done with professional techs then Dr. Stark walked in as if he could have cared less about me and what my issue was. Was rough, Told me nothing except I had dry eye and should get drops. Wondered why I had a certain test done. staff told him it was because of the finding last time I was in. 'Oh..I guess I should look at that'. Completely uninterested, rushed, unprofessional. I would not recommend him at all.
