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.

Knowledgeable and cares.

Time Wasted In & Out of Office
Up until my last visit it all was fine. Nothing great but nothing terrible. I have spent the last five weeks since my last complete eye check-up, which was 90 minutes, far longer than previously, trying to get my prescription. I'm not one to write negative reviews, but this is an extraordinary circumstance. Having worn contacts for over 30 years I am dumbfounded as to why, post appointment, I cannot get a renewal.

Dr Hu performed my lasik and I couldn’t be any happier with the results! Dr Hu was thorough and addressed all my questions. This made me feel comfortable leading up to the procedure. During the procedure, he gave me the play by play of what he was doing and/or about to do. He thrives for perfection so he can be very strict and made sure I follow the post op instructions to a tee.
