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 first seen Dr Patel a year ago after being referred to him by my optometrist and he seemed thorough and knowledgeable. I had a yearly appointment yesterday to follow up and was very dissatisfied with my visit. He wasn't in the room with me for 5 minutes. He seemed rushed and in a hurry. When he sat down to look at my eyes I could have counted to 3 and he was already finished. He said he could "see a change" and stood up and said he'd see me in a year and walked out. He never asked me if I was having any issues or questioned me at any time, and never asked if I had any questions or concerns. My eyes were dilated and nothing was offered to help when I left. I have been given reversal drops and disposable sunglasses before. The technicians were very friendly, but I wasn't happy with the exam from Dr Patel. I will not be returning.

Dr. Patel performed cataract surgery on both of my eyes, most recently my right eye on February 18th, 2019. I'm very pleased with the care he provided, and I recommend him. Phil Boyd, Oblong, IL
