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. Melstrom has been my optometrist for over 20 years and he is always kind, courteous, and very helpful. Most importantly, I trust his recommendations and clinical expertise--his patient's eye health definitely come first and he never tries to prescribes unnecessary procedures or eyewear.

Dr Melstrom is the best optometrist I have visited (and I have worn glasses for over 20 years). I live out of state but still make it a point to come back and see him due to his extensive knowledge and wonderful demeanor. I will continue to see him in the future.

I was recommended by a friend who had been going to him for years and I so glad that I followed her advice! After my arrival, there was very little wait time in the waiting room. I was warmly greeted by Dr. Melstrom. What impressed me the most about my appointment was the personal attention. He asked me many questions and really took his time with me. I don't agree with the other reviewer who left a negative review about Dr. Melstrom. I will confidently be taking my children to see him.
