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.

I had laxis surgery in 2008 by Dr. Bruckner it's the best thing I ever did he was great and I have not as of yet needed glasses doing review now because a friend asked about my eye dr and I'm highly recommending him.

DR BRUCKNER PERFORMED EYE SURGERY ON MY MOTHER BACK IN THE EIGHTIES. DR BRUCKNER HAD TO PUT A BUCKLE BEHIND HER EYE ??? WHICH CAUSED SERIOUS COMPLICATION, BLEEDING ?? INFECTION, LOST OF VISION AND DROOPING OF THE EYE LIDS. DR BRÜCKNER NEVER DID FIND OUT WHAT WAS CAUSING THE ISSUES. MY MOM WAS PREFERRED TO A SPECIALIST AND HE FOUND THE PROBLEM. THE BUCKLE, DR BRUCKNER PUT BEHIND MY MOTHERS EYE ??? HAD COME LOOSE! DR BRUCKNER NEVER ADMITTED TO BEING RESPONSIBLE. MY MOMS EYE WAS’NT NEVER THE SAME.

Had to bring my husband in for an appointment. I can’t vouch for the doctor, but the receptionist never stopped smacking her gum. I was in there for almost 2 hours and almost pulled my hair out. If his receptionist is any indication of his level of professionalism I’ll take my business elsewhere.

Dr. Bruckner is a wonderful surgeon, compassionate, and 'listens' to his patients! His staff is great, and his office just 'feels good'. It isn't the standard sterile, doctor's office. Dr. Bruckner even took me into the OR himself, and after surgery - was right there by my bedside. He gives his 'personal touch' and genuinely cares about his patients. If I could give more than 5 Stars, I would!
