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.

Rude and unresponsive office staff
I have been a patient of Dr. Colombo's for many years. The current office staff is absolutely horrible. They are rude on the telephone. The office manager never returned my calls. It took almost 2 weeks and dozens of phone calls to have them process my prescription. I gave 1 star because I am not able to specify 0 stars. I will not be returning to this office. Look elsewhere!

Colombo has poor 'bed-side' manner. Blurt's things out seemingly without any care as to how a patient might feel who is concerned for their vision, eye condition, etc., so I prefer seeing Colombo's other physician on staff. Unfortunately, the doctors disappear, no longer work for him, so I'm never able to see anybody steadily. Same with the person who fits contacts. No one sticks around. Hmmm. Staff is great--the biggest reason I have stayed.
