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.

He was awesome, I was very pleased
I got in at the appointed time. He explained everything he did. He went over my options with me. He answered all my questions. You could tell he was a caring physician. He explained everything about the cataract removals. He explained the various lens options and what one was the best choice for my situation.
