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.

Seems To Be A Very Knowledgable Doctor
My first appointment (along with my husband), except for the EXTREMELY long wait time. I was VERY impressed with Dr. Quinones' knowledge. He explained things in a clear manner and then gave a long-term plan for treatment, to stop and prevent further damage to the nerves in my eyes, along with the eye drops that were prescribed.

Wonderful ophthalmologist. Cares very much about his patients eye health. His eye exam is thorough and he is a thoughtful and focused doctor. He listens to his patients concerns and explains things thoroughly. I would definitely recommend him.

I have been going to Dr Quinones for about 15 years (maybe more). and he has kept my glaucoma under control mainly through various eyedrops. Had an SLT one time, and that was a quick and successful in and out procedure. I highly recommed him. He keeps quite busy, and appointments must be made months in advance. His office staffis pretty good, and keeps changing. His assistants and colleagues in the office are all good to excellent.

Dr Quinones takes the time to explain procedures, treatments that the patient may have to have. He is professional, but not stuffy. My glaucoma is stable, and I am very comfortable asking questions about my care and getting answers that I understand. Dr Quinones is sincere and has a genuine concern for his patients, ( my observation), and I feel he is very good at what he does and I appreciate that. I would recommend Dr Quinones to friends and family.
