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.

I am revising the review left previously. In that initial review, I was highly critical of Dr. Bleacher, and his staff. In this follow up, I will to the best of my ability to rectify what I posted. In regard to what I said about the tech, I stand by what I said. He was rude and disrespectful. However this should not reflect on the entire Practice. Today I went for my f/u surgical visit, and was given the opportunity to speak with the office manager as well as Dr. Bleacher. Both were very gracious an accommodating. I must admit that in regard to the Physician, I was unfair and mistakenly judgemental. Therefore I wish to revise my comments. The surgery was indeed done by Dr. Beacher which was verified through our discussions. Indeed the results are amazing. Obviously Dr. Bleacher lives up to his reputation, and is very skilled at his craft. Need I say more, probably, but I won't. The results speak for themselves. Dr. Bleacher has earned a rating of 5. Highly recommend.

I don’t think 5 stars are sufficient for the near miracle surgery Dr. Mark Blecher did on both my eyes. Not only did I have severe myopia, but cataracts as well. I did my homework and decided to have Dr. Blecher do both my eyes. My vision is almost 20/20, after being legally blind without correction, for many years. His bedside manner is excellent, and his surgical skills and procedures are both superb. If you want the best, see Dr. Blecher! I
