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.

Had this doctor recently and felt validated by the other negative reviews. This man has been repeatedly rude and unconcerned with his patients feelings whatsoever. He acts annoyed that his has to treat anyone and is always trying to rush someone out of an appt. When trying to talk to him about your concerns he will talk down to you like you’re stupid with the creepiest smile. I left my appointment feeling awful and cried when I got home. I’m certainly going to find another eye doctor. I’m happy to know I’m not the only one, but it is sad that so many others have been treated this way by this man. If you’re considering seeing him, PLEASE do yourself a favor and find someone else. They’ll treat you much better than he can

Very good care and treatment
I have seen Dr Rizkalla for many years. I have found him to be very professional and took plenty of time to talk with me about my eye healthcare. He has performed surgery on both of my eyes and have had zero problems. I would 100% recommend him. The office in Pembroke is a very busy place. The office in Weymouth seems to be more relaxed.

Very impatient doctor. He cut me off rudely as I described why I went to see him, he was more eager to teach me what is the 'right' reason to see doctor than to help me. Very unpleasant experience. Not recommend. If there is 0 star, I would not give 1.

He is rude, misogynistic, impatient, and cold. I have consistantly left his appointments upset. When I ask questions I always get a piercing response usually in a tone you would take with a toddler. If you dare challenge his opinion in hopes of finding a solution he will always respond vaguely and dismissively. If you have the unfortunate luck of being in his chair I’m sorry for you.

I was seen as a new patient for an urgent visit, without a scheduled appointment. As someone who had never had any previous eye problems, I was nervous not knowing what to expect. The staff was friendly overall. My exam with the doctor was thorough and he spent the time to explain things clearly. Quality and time spent one on one gave me a great deal of confidence. I wouldn't go anywhere else. Very grateful for Dr. Rizkalla's care and expertise.
