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.

Awesome facility - So very glad to have found them
I had already been to the emergency room with three-day hospital stay and a neurologist and eye doctor and no one was able to diagnose my illness and condition. My wonderful eye doctor said he would need to refer me to Dr. Bryan Vekovius, a Neuro- Ophthalmologist right away. They got me in quickly even though they were a very busy office. They had all kinds of equipment and machines to test your eyes. He determined quickly my condition and prescribed medicine and eye drops to help improve this painful and miserable condition called Third Nerve Palsy (I had never heard of it before). Within a few weeks I was improving and my double vision and really wonky vision is almost 98 percent. But I feel I will very soon be 100 percent. His front office staff and nurses were very efficient and professional. Once again very happy to have found this doctor!!

I had a problem from several surgeries I had .
I was very satisfied with the care I received with Dr. Vekovius . I felt he was very concerned and professional with my problems. If he had a fault it was trying to help too many people, The waiting room and parking lot is always full of patients so you may have to wait a bit but the wait is worth it, he is the best.Thank you Dr, Vekovius!

WOW I can see clearly now!!
I am so excited about my new vision. No longer is my sight hindered by shadows from my 'droopy' upper eyelids. Not only can I see better, I look younger too! My friends could not believe I had eye surgery even a week afterwards. Dr. Vekovius is such a skilled surgeon there was very little residual and recovery from the surgery at all. I am so glad Dr. Vekovius was my choice for surgery. I am thrilled with my results and would highly recommend Dr. Vekovius and his great staff for any eye care he might can help you with. Thank you Dr. Vekovius for your skill and professionalism in helping me with my eye care!

AWSOME VISIT
MY VISIT WAS AWSOME. HE TOOK THE TIME TO LOOK AT MY GOOD EYE TO MAKE SURE IT WAS NO LONGER HEMORRHAGING. HE REFERRED ME TO DR BABER AT THE LAST VISIT AND BABER GAVE AN INJECTION IN MY EYE THAT WAS HEMORRHAGIN. WE CAME BACK TODAY AND HE DID HIS TESTING AND MY EYE IS MUCH BETTER. THE BLEEDING HAS STOPPED. HE IS A GENTLE MAN WITH GOOD BEDSIDE MANNERS. HE MAKES YOU LAUGH WHEN YOU ARE WORRIED. HE IS THE BEST EYE SPECIALIST I HAVE EVER SEEN AND I AM 84 YEARS OLD. IF I HAD TO DO IT AGAIN I WOULD STILL COME TO SEE HIM.

Excellent knowledge, training and experience
The first time I saw Dr. Vekovius he identified the cause of a recurring eye problem I had been having and prescribed a successful course of treatment, something that no other eye doctor was able to do. As I have become older, he has been very attentive to age related eye conditions I might develop and has made sure that I am guarded from such conditions. I trust his judgment completely.

New patient
My husband saw 6 doctors with no diagnosis until we saw Dr. V and were sent straight to the ER with a serious diagnosis. If it were for him my husband would probably be blind

Did not give up
Dr. Vekovius did not give up until he found a solution to my condition. The vision in my right eye has improved greatly since seeing him. He was able to recommend the exact tests needed to confirm my condition. I am thankful that he did not give up on me and my eyes.

Exceptional Experience
First, Dr. Vekovious diagnosed and successfully treated a somewhat rare condition no one else had been able to for years. I’m most grateful. Then he did an exceptional job on my eyelid surgery. I can see better, fewer headaches don’t have to raise my eyebrows to read anymore. At two weeks you can barely see the incision marks and I will have almost no scars when it’s over. Dr V listens to you. A rare quality for a doctor. His staff is polite, friendly and very helpful. I would and have recommended him to my family, friends and fellow veterans. I’d give ten stars if I could.
