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.

Great Doctor
I had cataract surgery with Dr. Jivanjee, and he was an excellent surgeon. He didn’t talk much during the surgery but l would rather have him focused on what he was doing. He was kind before and after the surgery. Highly recommend!

×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Jivanjee?
No. Very impersonal, rushed. He may be overbooked --seems to be in a hurry to get on to the next person. Minimal eye contact and speaks mostly to his assistant. I had a visual field test today and had to ask for results--he replied that it "was all over the place" as he rushed out the door. I dont know what that means!
