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.

Disappointing. I have had more interaction with an optometrist. Nurse was borderline rude.

Great experience! Dr. Petrie took the time to explain everything & made sure I understood all of my options. He was very knowledgeable and courteous. Front desk and nurses were also very nice and made my visit pleasant. Will definitely be returning for all of my future eye care!

Office appointments and surgeries were/are on time. Explanations and clarifications of my vision and conditions were clear and thorough, as well as my options. I am extremely satisfied with the outcome of my cataract surgeries. I feel as though Dr. Petrie takes a genuine interest in my vision, comfort, and well-being, rather than treating me as just another number.
