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.

Took our daughter in for a cat laceration to her eye. Dr Lim was the the oncall dr. She reviewed the pictures sent over by the ER. She then called me and said she'd like to see my daughter in her clinic on a Saturday to be sure surgery/sutures were necessary. She did not have to go the extra mile, but she did. She met us at the bank of elevators and no one was around to let us in and saw my child in office for the most thorough recommendation. Then proceeded to schedule the surgery once deemed truly necessary. Answered all our questions and was very thorough and compassionate. Can not recommend her enough!

She lacks understanding. She doesn't explain things in simple terms and appears frustrated when my child does not cooperate. She does not listen very well.

She's amazing! Honestly in the beginning I was pretty upset we had to drive over an hour away for my son to be seen. But, after two visits it's soo worth the drive! I've recommended Mary to a couple friends!

She had a very kind spirit about her. Very engaged with child, approachable, good listener, great communicator. I felt she was very reassuring to me in the 3 visits I had with her (as a mother).

Dr. Lim is amazing! My son has special needs, and her ability to assess him and interact with him is phenomenal. I am so impressed with the pediatric ophthalmology office as a whole! Everyone made adaptations to accommodate his needs and do what they needed to do while keeping him calm and comfortable.

She is excellent with my daughter! She keeps her attention and gets her to participate with ease. She is very welcoming and soft spoken. She is also attentive and listens to my worries and/or questions that I concern. She is perfect for working with little kids.
