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. Hammond is great! Very confident and professional in his work. I drove 750 miles and back to have him do my Lasik and would do it again. He has done Lasik and a Kamra inlay for me. I highly recommend him, thank you Dr. Hammond!

Dr. Hammond is always so friendly. He always walks me to the check out desk and let us the front office staff know exactly what I need to be scheduled for in the future.

Extremely competent, caring and committed surgeon with genuine bedside manner ! After one LASIK procedure I have 20:20 vision. I did a lot of research on top docs in the Phoenix area. I am also a doctor and surgeon, so was very particular and cautious with whom I trusted my vision and livelihood. If you are contemplating which surgeon to choose, I would strongly urge you to trust Dr Hammond!

Had cataract surgery on both eyes done by Dr. Hammond. I was a bit nervous at first but his staff, the surgical center and Dr. Hammond made the experience so comfortable and absolutely pain free. The surgical center is intimate and you are not rushed. I have had very good results and highly recommend Dr. Hammond!
