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.

The Best
I think that Dr. Figueroa is the best ophthalmologist in New England. He is a very caring, compassionate doctor who is very thorough and knowledgeable. He makes you feel at home in his office and gives you the most comprehensive eye exam of any doctor. Simply put, he is the very best.

He is a very thorough doctor. My family has had some serious eye problems and he checks me each time to make sure I don’t. He is very pleasant, courteous and caring.

I've been seeing Dr Figueroa for about 2 years. He's a great and caring doctor. His office staff are the best. I called him recently on call and he called me back in less than a minute,and saw me in his office immediately for a scratched cornea. I definitely recommend him.

A wonderful first visit. The staff were welcoming and efficient. Office is exceptionally clean and there was less than a 10 minute wait for my appointment. Very pleased with the doctor, staff and office. Have already suggested him to several family members and friends.
