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.

His sincere interest in his patients, his knowledge and experience. I especially was appreciative of the time he took to explain my eye conditions and answer my many questions.

Professional and Communicative
I’ve seen Dr. Weidman for years now and his team and he have provided me excellent care. I have a need to be seen every 8-15 weeks and each visit, his staff are very professional and kind. I rarely wait very long (although I always try to go early AM appointments) and my overall experience is great. He is a very thorough doctor, I love his assistants who scribe for him and that process helps me also feel more in tune with my own care. Very effective process and the best at what he does!

Specialists Needed
I am thankful for the knowledge that Dr. Weidman has. He worked on my eye when it detached (what is called the worse kind of detachment because it was in the back by the macula). I am now 11 months post op and doing well. God was good and I got past the crucial time (first three months) without it detaching again. :)

Dr. Weidman was so caring with my elderly father! He was extremely patient and spent a long time after hours on the phone with us explaining macular degeneration. One of the kindest doctors we have ever had and we feel so grateful to have him care for our family. 5 stars are not enough.
