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.

Dr Nelson has been my ophthalmologist for more than 25 years. He cared for my eyes, operated my catharats, removed foreign objects from my eyes, cured several infections, etc. He is truly the best there is. My husband can see thanks of Dr Nelson consistent care and monitoring. Thank you Dr Nelson.
