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.

Terrible she never explained that you could lose your eyesight , it was all about how it was an easy operation in and out and I have done it for years , well I have lost my vision in one eye and when I went and told her she says to me that this can sometimes happen after that she didn’t want to answer me on things about it it was like I had some sickness stay away from her she cannot be trusted to care for your well-being it’s all about the money because if she would have been honest and told me that loss of vision could happen I would have never gone and had it done

Dr. Christine Coward will abandon and neglect you if you try to get "too many answers" before surgery. She does not care if you go blind unless she can put any lens that she wants to into your eye for life, not what's needed and the correct lens. If I can't get a Doctor in time before I go blind from this Doctor leaving me behind to fend for myself, I was told that I can sue her.
