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 Snyder is good but the office needs better management. Called multiple times to confirm appointment but could not get through. Sent email and received no reply.

Dr Snyder is a good eye doctor but don't try to get help if it's a emergency. Calling them during their working hours for three days straight has left me with only the answer box saying they were closed even during working hours. Had to go to the ER and if it wasn't for that I don't think the staff would ever had know I had a issue. Even their emergency line was the same. Always closed.

I was able to be seen quickly and they gave me the paperwork ahead of time so that I could fill it out at home beforehand...quite convenient. Everyone is quite pleasant and professional. Dr. Snyder and Julie went out of their way to make me feel comfortable, answer all of my questions, and took the time to get to know me as a patient. It was a great experience, and I will continue seeing them annually now. I highly recommend Dr. Snyder and his staff.

Dr. Snyder is a very good doctor. However, you are only as good as your staff. Two years in a row, my appointment was rescheduled and I show up on the day of appointment to find out I was rescheduled. I called and confirmed both times the Friday before my Monday appointment. No apologies either.

We can't say too many good things about Dr. Snyder. He has been treating my family and me for years and we look forward to each appointment we have with him. He's attentive, thorough, personable and has a great bedside manner, especially with children. We highly recommend Dr. Snyder!

The doctor wouldn't do anything about the canker sore like bump in the bottom of my eyelid. He just said that there was nothing wrong. I pointed out that my eyelid was discolored but he just dismissed me. I begged and pleaded with the doctor to no avail. I would not recommend this doctor.
