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.

Dr Minkovitz is the best. I’m an older man who has been to many eye doctors but never came across anyone who is as good as he is. Highly recommend.

Dr. Minkovitz is the best!
My appointment was later in the day, so there was a wait, but everyone I encountered was pleasant and patient with me. When Dr. Minkovitz walked into the room, after what I'm sure was a long and busy day, he was still pleasant and relaxed, and took the time to explain the procedure I needed.

Patient for over 25 years
This was my first visit with Dr. Minkovitz. I have numerous issues with my eyes and needed a top cataract surgeon to replace my lens in my left eye. The staff did all the testing and the results were then gone over with me by Dr. Minkovitz in terms that I understood along with the options and risks.My left eye issues are managed by Dr. Paula Ko in this same practice. I highly recommend them both. I'm looking forward to having my vision improved by Dr. Minkovitz.

I recommend Dr. M. To all potential patients.
Extreme competence.Dr. M has an excellent reputation.(referred by Penn Medicine, Philadelphia, eye technician who worked with Dr. M. For over 8 years). Procedure was explained and all my questions answered. Dr. M has a great approach- fun loving toward his staff and able to put patients and family at ease.He demonstrates “caring” at the highest level.He is published and polite.What other physician telephoned the evening after surgery- asking how I was faring?I vote for Dr. Minkovitz as a TOP DOC.Scale of one to ten -a 10 plus.

Dr. Minkovitz for cataract surgery
Spends a lot of time meeting with you, examining your eyes, and explaining different types of artificial lenses for your particular need. Personally calls you in the evening of the day you have had your surgery to make sure you are recovering well, and then you see him again in person the day after the surgery.

Our visit was outstanding. Very thorough examination. Dr. Was extremely helpful. Told me it was not in my best interest to proceed at this time. How wonderful to have a physician so thoughtful and kind. I believe he is a genuinely caring person with the best interests of his patients at heart. I recommend this office.
