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.

Floaters in Both Eyes
Dr. Tilton did a great job of removing the major floaters in both of my eyes. He is very knowledgeable and supportive with my eye care. I highly recommend Dr. Tilton and have encouraged my friends to see him with their eye care.

Always Excellent Care
This was a yearly follow-up visit to evaluate my eyes after having issues with my eyes for a couple years. As always I had a thorough exam and attentive and professional care.

very good
This doctor is very good. Was a tough day in the clinic overall with extremely long wait times. He addressed my almost 90 yr old father, as every care provider should since he is the patient. Tilton was reasonable with balancing treatment plan with quality of life considerations. His healthcare partner for the day, Madeline, was also excellent.

Nice doctor
Dr. Tilton is a very nice and patient doctor. I’ve seen great providers here over the past 10 years. However, It wasn’t pleasant to walk in, have 4 receptionists look at me, then continue talking to one another. I had an appointment and waited an hour and 10 minutes. I could understand if this was a walk-in clinic, but this was a reserved spot. The back waiting room was packed and there was a lot of grumbling about how long people had been waiting, so it wasn’t just one doctor either running behind or overbooked, and many patients were disappointed. Also, it seems like it would be a good idea at an ophthalmology office to check patients’ blood pressures. Additionally, one of the MAs that was calling people back was audibly asking people for their last name and date of birth within earshot of many other patients, which is clearly a HIPAA violation. Being in healthcare, I just wouldn’t want anyone to get in trouble, so just something to pass on to them.

Exemplifying Compassion
Dr Tilton from my first visit throughout my eye floater surgery was extremely caring for me and my wife. He explained everything in detail and made me very comfortable with the decision to have the surgery. I was very apprehensive about anyone removing the fluid from my eye but Dr Tilton calming attitude helped me relax.
