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.

Very happy with Dr. Candal's care.
My husband and I saw Dr. Candal because he took over the practice of our former doctor. We didn't know what to expect and to honest-he had a tough act to follow. We were incredibly pleased with his care. He was extremely informative, answered all of our questions, and gave respectful responses. We will stay with Dr. Candal as our eye doctor and comfortably recommend to others.

I was not happy with the cateract surgery I received from Dr. Candel. He put one weaker lense in my left eye, hoping it would result in me reading without glasses. In the other eye he put the correct strength lense. Of course putting the weaker lense in my left eye did nothing as far as me being able to read without glasses - it only made me not be able to see distance in the left eye as well as my right eye can. I am upset because now my distant vision is not what it should be since my left eye has the weaker lense in it. I feel like he experimented on me putting the weaker lense in my left eye and shouldn't of done that - he should've put both lenses in my eyes with the right and same strenghth needed to correct my distant vision.
