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.

A Terrific Eye Doctor
My wife and I have been seeing Dr. Gueverra for about 3 years and are very satisfied with the doctor's practice. She is very thorough, knowledgeable and friendly. She takes the time to explain what the issues are and how to treat them. She is very patient with our questions and answers them fully. Dr. Gueverra performed cataract surgery on my wife and the doctor provided a comforting environment. The operation was successful and my wife is very happy with the results. I have recommended Dr. Gueverra to my friends. The staff is very friendly and knowledgeable as well.

Excellent eye dictor
I had been going regularly to her a couple of years ago, then I put off my care based on my elderly mother’s needs. At that time, she was monitoring me for glaucoma, but as she said back then “all the puzzle pieces have to fit for a concrete glaucoma diagnosis,” but it seemed each time I went the puzzle pieces weren’t fitting. Anyway, I’m glad I came back because when I did, she was able to test me again and give me a glaucoma diagnosis. Each time I saw her she was thorough, and she readily answered all questions I had. She has an excellent way of explaining what is happening in layman’s terms so you don’t leave her office with any unanswered questions. Furthermore, I have anxiety and her soft spoken voice and calm demeanor just has a way of always calming me down. You may experience long wait times, but that’s only because she doesn’t rush her patients, which is really something you should welcome! Thank you, Dr. Guevarra, for taking such good care of me! See you soon!

Dr. Michelle Guevarra is an excellent ophthalmologist with Medical Retina Subspecialty. You can be assured her diagnosis is reliable as she has the latest testing equipment and a professional staff to perform the tests and record the results. She performed cateract surgery on both my eyes and is monitoring my vision for age-related macular degeneration, glaucoma and treating my Sjogren’s Syndrome [sicca/dry eye disease]. I wouldn’t trust my eye care any other doctor.

Yesterday was my first visit. The waiting is a bit much, but she more than makes up for it during the examination. I found her demeanor to be calm and I understood everything she said. She is much better than the doctor I was going to. I will return.
