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.

What doctor doesn’t talk about concerns!
We were there in March 2024. My 17 year old daughter was adamant that she needed glasses for distance. She was told, the doctor that she doesn’t, but she would give us a mild prescription if we wanted. What!? It would cost $80. I didn’t take the prescription, since I figured the doctor knew more about eyes than my teen. My daughter kept complaining to me that she is still having trouble seeing far away. I called the doctor’s office THREE times, about a week apart, asking to talk to the doctor. I FINALLY got a call, NOPE, not the doctor! I decided to go elsewhere. My daughter needs glasses for distance, has an astigmatism in one eye AND, the new doctor called me! I am so glad we switched to the new doctor!
