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.

Odyssey IOL implant
Dr. Jared Younger performed my Odyssey IOL implant at Newport Bay Surgicenter and I have been extremely pleased with his professional expertise and friendly efficient staff. I had a list of questions I needed answering before I made my decision and Dr. Younger patiently answered each inquiry replying with “Good Questions.”The surgery went very smoothly with no pain or discomfort and was very quick. Being able to see clearly without glasses is exactly the outcome I anticipated and Dr. Younger delivered. If you are considering lens replacement, you will be in the best hands under Dr. Younger’s care offering you the state of the art technology and the highest professional quality in procedure and outcome.

This guy was highly recommended by my doctor. I had the eye exam and much needed surgery was scheduled. Pre Op scheduling was a horrific mess. The Friday before the preop appointment I got a text message to reschedule to come on Wednesday instead of Tuesday at 430pm. That was fine. The day before the preop appointment I got a phone call to reschedule the date and time to Tuesday at 4pm. Again, fine. The day of the preop I got a text message confirming the preop appointment for the next day, Wednesday 430 pm. Not fine. A doctor is only as good as the office staff. Your care will be compromised with an incompetent staff.

When I went to see Dr. Younger he seemed concerned, caring, and took time to explain everything I needed to know. I very much appreciated the way I was treated in his office.

He was recommended by my husband's Dr. for cataract surgery. Dr. Younger's calm, friendly and very knowledgeable persona makes one feel comfortable and sure of any advise he gives after testing. Surgery was performed on both eyes with excellent results. His staff is friendly & knowledgeable about Medicare and other insurance plans. I was so impressed with his service and that of his staff that I too came in for an eye exam and chose their frames over a less expensive solution.

Dr Younger is incredible. In Palm Springs I thought I had good drs. 3 years ago I stopped driving, no one knew what was wrong! I came to Dr Younger, he explained exactly what was wrong, what type of cataracts I had & how he would fix it! He took care of me pre-op thru post-op, both eyes done & I feel like I've experienced a miracle. Everyone including Courtney and Heather, are great as well. The level of kindness, compassion, experience & competence is remarkable. I highly recommend Dr Younger!
