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. Galvin has cared for our 7 year old daughter since she was 6 months old. Our daughter has various eye conditions and has had multiple eye surgeries. Dr. Galvin has always taken the time to answer all of our questions, does thorough examinations and is attentive, knowledgeable and caring. She is like family and I have peace of mind knowing my daughter is in more than capable hands.

Dr Galvin has been my (almost 5 year old) son's eye Dr since he was an infant. He was born with congenital ptosis and without eyelid creases. She has always shown kindness, patience and understanding towards my son, who also has anxiety with doctors and strangers. She has also proven to be knowledgeable with his eye conditions and recommended the appropriate treatment plans.

Mariano Family in Sharon, CT – May 23, 2018

I was referred to Dr. Galvin by my ophthalmologist for my complaints of "double vision". I had 2 visits with Dr. Galvin to determine the probable cause, and to suggest remedies. After several visits, testing and a trial of prisms on my glasses, which I could not tolerate, we settled on surgery on the muscles of my right eye. Throughout Dr. Galvin thoroughly, patiently and with kindness explained the options, steps and the surgery. Best of all the outcome was excellent!
