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.

Don’t waste your time.
Diagnosed cataracts and immediately stated he wasn’t sure. Then he said come back in 2 months.

he Dr n staff are amazing!!! I have a horrible cornea ulcer and was seeing another Dr whose wait was more than 4-5 hours, his staff was rude ,he didn’t know what to do with my eye?I was in excruciating pain like a knife was in my eye,I searched and found dr Al Shiekh and literally cried and begged him to help me..I was in so much pain and couldn’t see and he said I’ll have you out of pain in 2 days! Sure enough he did, my eye was so bad!! Now it’s almost healed up.He’s an amazing dr. Dr Al Shiekh and his staff have taken great care of me I’m very appreciative to have found them!

Unprofessional
I saw him 2 days ago & he gave me 3 samples that were to be 4X a day & last 7 days.They didn’t even last 2 1/2 days. I told them to open a sample themselves in front of me & show me that there are more that 3 - 4 drops because 3rd sample didn’t even let me get 2 drops in each eye. I had even asked for old prescription so I could get drops asap since I did not have drops this morning/last night. He told nurse he wasn’t giving me any more samples & won’t be writing me a prescription & won’t waste sample to find out that’s there’s not enough drops even for 1 day. So he basically called me a liar & told nurse I could wait for appt. in 2wks or find another dr. He is arrogant, full of himself & does NOT CARE about well-being of patients. It’s his ego trip. I’ve been going to Dr. Braverman’s for years as my parents did. My mom had a bad experience and left recently too. Unfortunately, when they lost Dr. Braverman they also lost their integrity & professionalism w/him. I’ve never been so disap

Five star rating. I’m 86years old. Did great work
Mr Ricardo on staff picked me up and took me home for only 20$ round trip. Took Medicare plus allowed copay. And other charges total around $700,00. Reasonable and good value. Mr Ricardo and rest of staff very friendly. Five stars plus.

I have been seeing Dr. Alsheikh for several years now. He is a good man and a fine doctor and surgan. IHe has removed a cataract in my right eye, and is closely monitering the one in my left eye. Sometimes the wait time in his office cam be a little long, but it is getting better. I met him after Dr. Duncan Friedman successfully got the retina in my right eye to reattach to back of the eyeball
