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 think Dr. Demarco is a good dr. however we have stopped seeing him because of his office staff/coders-my insurance pays for annual routine vision exam -Twice I've had to appeal a denial to the insurance company because of the wrong codes being used-My insurance company & I have both talked to the office but to no avail.

Dr DeMarco is an excellent doctor but the rest of the practice is a train wreck. The other doctors, the techs, the billing manager especially heinous. Scheduling is triple booked as a rule and patients are treated like cattle. My visit was rescheduled by the office three times due to him being out of the office. Our copays add up to nice Indian safaris. Keep looking for another practice until Tony cleans house on Trinity Place

I wouldn't trust my eye care with anyone else in Athens. Dr. Demarco is one of the best physicians I have ever had the pleasure of seeing.

My husband had an appointment scheduled with this provider. After taking the day off, we sat in a waiting room for more than one and one half hours. Every other patient in the waiting room had been there for more than two hours.Obviously there is a problem with scheduling because the nurse said that patients wait that long in their other office, but she claimed there had been an emergency. Unless you enjoy waiting on a doctor - DO NOT schedule an appointment with this practice.
