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.

I rescheduled missing work and when i showed up i was told they did not wanna see me because i contradicted DR Nuemeister .

Dr. Neumeister did an amazing job of removing a cataract in my left eye and restoring my vision to near perfect. He's an outstanding surgeon who answered all of my questions and provided a wealth of detailed information prior to surgery. He's a really nice guy and his staff is friendly, professional and caring. I would not hesitate to see Dr. Neumeister again... though I hope I never have to!

Dr. Neumeister is really kind. Always makes sure I understand what’s happening/May happen. My only issue is appointment scheduling. I’ve had to wait a long time in waiting room for appointments. I’ve had them reschedule almost every appointment I made!
