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.

I saw Dr. Lischwe for cataracts in both eyes. He was personable, took his time to explain what he would do and scheduled surgery. The surgery is quick and easy. Coincidentally, my driver's license was expired and I was very pleased that I passed without my glasses. I appreciate that he requires patients to wear a mask.

My wife and I both go to him. When I explained that we live 40 miles away and needed same day visits , his staff arranged it so we are seen at the same time.

I went to a local optometrist because my vision was blurry and they said I needed a prescription change. The new glasses did not help so I went to Dr Lischwe and he properly diagnosed my problem as a cataract. I was very impressed with the care given me by the doctor, his staff, the nurses and anesthesiologists in the hospital. We are lucky to have this level of care in a rural area.

Dr. Lischwe may be all right for typical cateract surgery -- I don't know about that -- but I have an I have an astigmatism, and he put in the wrong lens because he did not measure properly according to two specialists I went to in Columbia. So, instead of achieving 20/20 like the majority of cataract surgeries, I could barely read the first line after he was finished. On top of that, my eye was 3/4 scarlet for well over a month. I will never darken Dr. Lischwe's door again. And since then, I've talked to a number of locals (many in the medical community) who just shake their heads when I mention Dr. Lischwe, saying things like they would never go to him because his reputation is not good.

Judy and I live in Salida, Colorado and have a house on the lake in Osage Beach, MO. Went there in May of 2017 and I needed a cataract removed, I did not care to have it done in Salida. Glad we did, as we could not have been treated in any more of a kind and professional way. I had eyes very far-sighted and a cataract that blocked one eye. When we left the clinic I had 20 20 vision both eyes, of course different days. Judy had only one eye done, but same result, no problems. Jim and Judy Taylor

I would nor recommend seeing dr. Lischwe. He has an I don't care attitude and will tell you anything to put a buck in his pocket. Do yourself a favor and go to another Dr.

Dr. Lischwe was very thorough and observant when examining my eyes. He is always friendly and maintains a good relationship with me as a patient and always acts in a professional manner. The door to the examination room is kept open during the appointment to make doctor and patient comfortable. His assistants are very friendly and treat all the patients with respect. One of my eyes has a condition that he has to continually monitor during each annual exam and he always remembers to check it.
