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.

It’s been two years since I last visited Dr. Grabow. He is professional & skilled. I’m not sure he is still practicing. As a matter of fact, I am now conducting a search trying to locate him. That’s how excellent he is.

My postop cataract surgery was Friday I’ve been in severe pain ever since I’ve had to drain my eye with a syringe twice to relieve the pressure and I don’t think anybody knows what to do about it but it’s terrible I would not recommend this doctor

I attended an appt for my husband to see Dr. Grabow today regarding my husband's suspected glaucoma. The Dr. was rude and turned his back physically on my husband when discussing his findings. He was abrasive and barked at my husband when he did not get his chin situated properly on the machine. Finally, he refused to test for his supposed glaucoma stating "you are at the wrong doctor" we could not agree with him more on that one point. Run don't walk as he has no good manners at all.

On Jan. 4, I had my annual check-up. Today, I got a statement from my insurance, Aetna, that they had paid you. I paid $200.00 for this visit. Please reimburse my payment, since you accept Aetna and I paid you $200.00. William Brame claim no. 180208E0061901. billbrame@msn.com, (941) 374-1265 2631 Woodgate Ln. Sarasota, FL 34231 Thank you

I had a very bad experience with this Dr. due to his lack of ability to communicate. He may be a great surgeon but due to bad choices and emergency surgery after a second cataract surgery I now have very poor sight. I believe this could have been avoided with better communication
