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. McKinney did a very comprehensive exam and took time to explain everything. He brought up various issues my eyes have that my previous doctors had never even mentioned.

Outstanding First Visit – Highly Recommend
This was my first visit, and I couldn’t be more impressed. The doctor took the time to explain everything thoroughly and never made me feel rushed. He was patient, professional, and made sure all my questions were answered. The office is beautiful, and the staff is incredibly friendly and welcoming. He came highly recommended by friends—and now I can see why. I would absolutely recommend him to anyone looking for an exceptional ophthalmologist.

Cataract surgery prep
Dr. McKinney went over all of my options, and as I have multiple eye problems, that was a huge help. He explained everything and relieved my fears. Additionally, Jennifer was terrific too.

In Good Hands
New to cataract surgery and Oasis Eye Care made sure I understood the process and Jennifer did a great job evaluating my eyes so Dr. Trent McKinney could recommend the most effective replacement lens. I feel confident I am in good hands and the procedure will be successful.
