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.

Dr .Baroody is extremely knowledgeable in her field. She us also has excellent bed side manners. I recommend her to anybody who wants to be a excellent care. I send my love and blessings to her and her family in Jesus’s name, Amen ??

Dr. Baroody is a skilled and conscientious ophthalmologist. Her examinations are thorough, her directions are clear, and she followed up immediately after my cataract procedure. I have every confidence in her, and would recommend her to others.

Excellent doctor
I have been going to her for several years. Staff is great. I went to another group in danbury where I had a macular hole and they messed my eye up after surgery. Went to Columbia on New York and the doc did another surgery. Changed to Dr Baroody. She is excellent, very thorough, neat around.

Dr. Baroody epitomizes the practice of ophthalmology with the highest level of diagnostic acumen, well beyond the normal scope of practice which she combines with a deep focus on the needs of the patient as a whole person. She has saved my vision and through her diagnostic skill, saved my life with an emergency admission to Danbury Hospital for treatment of an acute manifestation of a rare systemic condition. Her refractions, including four optic parameters compensating for dry macular degeneration with drusen and a unilateral, tractional epiretinal membrane with dysmorphopsia, are exceptional in optimizing my residual vision. I recommend her without exception.

Dr. Baroody is an excellent eye surgeon. Additionally, she is thorough and really cares. She followed up only hours after my surgery to see how I was doing! So pleased with the care I received.

Failed to diagnose a case of common blepharitis/chronic dry eye after three visits in less than a month. Suggested a gluten/dairy allergy and referred me to her partner for a second opinion...luckily, I went to another practice in the area and got a diagnosis, a treatment plan, and resolution. Would not recommend Dr. Baroody.

I can't say enough about Dr. Baroody and her staff. She was highly recommended by my retinal doctor and I used her for cataract surgery on both eyes. She did meticulous research of my prior history. Dr. Baroody is very calm and reassuring and always available when I called post surgery. Terrific, knowledgeable staff. Can't believe that I now see 20/20 out of both eyes with no astigmatism where before I needed glasses for everything....To me, this is a miracle.
