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.

Definitely would recommend Dr. Vahey for anyone who has a child with any eye concerns. She is very thorough, explains treatment and issues related to my child's condition. Also has very good interactions with the children

We're first-time patients. My husband and I brought my son and daughter. The appointment was for my son who started throwing a tantrum, and I didn't think it would work out but Dr. Vahey miraculously calmed him down and went on with the appointment. I felt compelled to write this review because her patience, calm demeanor and professionalism really stood out for my husband and I!

Dr. Vahey has been excellent with all of our children over the past 18 years. Her patients, expertise, and gentle mannerism even made our quietest child comfortable. Outstanding! She did an excellent job describing to us our options in a way we could understand. Highly recommend her and would never go elsewhere. I don't feel total time is accurate when your children need to be dilated and wait for the medicine to work. The wait time for me as an adult and our kids obviously varies.

Doctor does not listen to concerns. Spends very less time listening to patients questions. Would not recommend at all.
