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 had cataract surgery on both eyes this past June 2023 performed by Dr. Marefat. The surgeries were a complete success. Dr. Marefat was great. From the initial visit ,surgery and follow up. He explained everything 100% and was totally honest with everything. I would recommend him to anyone needing cataract surgery. A big thank you to him as I now have perfect vision.

My first appointment was quite different from all other medical appointments I've had over the last several years. I have been through a lot of Dr. Offices and Med clinics and Hospital stays. The whole office experience with Dr. Marefat is like orchestrated chaos. I have to admit everyone in his office was professional and extremely courteous. Every aspect of my treatment was extra special. Dr. Marefats team of nurses and receptionist are Polite, show genuine concern and very knowledgeable.

I have had ongoing eye issues for several years and have visited Dr Marefat on many occasions. He is a wonderful doctor with a very caring manner and great knowledge. His staff is always very polite and helpful answering questions any questions that might come up. I would have a hard time trusting my eyes to any other doctor. I would absolutely refer all family and friends to his office.

The way that he treats his staff in public was painful to watch. He degrades them and talks over them. His time with us felt like we are nothing more than a number. He does not listen to you or care for your thoughts. He does not follow through with what he says on everything. He also says one thing, and then contradicts himself in every appointment we have had so far. I am sure he is good with what he does on some things but not with us. We will not be using him anymore.
