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.

He is An excellent clinician as well as great customer service!

I went in to his office specially for one thing - to get a new vision prescription which would be 100% covered under my insurance. When I received the bill, I was being charged a deductible. My insurance said the doctor's office billed it as a diagnosis, so this was not covered. The doctor's billing department argued relentlessly with me that I asked for additional screening. She tried to say that since I'm a pilot, the airlines want them to do addition testing. I see an aviation doctor each year for that! This doctor will snake money from you. Stay away or make sure you ask specifically what he's doing and how it will be billed.

I had cataract surgery. I had pressure complications with the left eye which Dr Dinsmore quickly resolved. He was proactive in treating the right eye, and there were no complications. The day after the right eye surgery, I had to control myself from working the the garden. I felt that good.

Dr Dinsmore conducted cataract surgery on both of my eyes in what was a high risk procedure. Due to stigmatisms, an old eye injury and related complications, this procedure was going to be difficult. I found Dr. Dinsmore very thoughtful and he explained all the options and risks. He was very detailed and cautious. I selected Dr. Dinsmore based on referrals from other patients. He is outstanding.

I and my family have been using Dr. Dinsmore for 5+ years. We have always received excellent and caring service. I discovered my physician also goes to Dr. Dinsmore.
