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.

Really good doctor for Keratoconus patients
My experience with Dr. Li was great! I have been treated for Keratoconus and he helped me to get fit my scleral contact lenses. He is knowledgeable, really friendly, and takes the time to provide you with good care. I recommend!

×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Li?
This guy misdiagnosed me with ocular melanoma 7 years ago when he was practicing in NY. He subjected me to thousands of dollars of testing. It seemed a little suspicious so I got a second and third opinion from two other doctors, who told me that the tumor that Dr. Li found on my retinal scan was likely a shadow. I'm pretty sure it wasn't cancer because I'm still alive and typing this negative review. Thanks Dr. Li for giving me the scare of my life.
