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.

Impossible to reach
As a doctor I loved him, but I’ve tried for a year, off and on, to contact him to set up eye surgery and no one ever answers the phone and there is no way to leave a message. Very frustrating and disappointing. Looking for another doctor now.

Listens and provides excellent information
I got a same-day appointment with Dr. Amsterdam for an issue for which I was going to have to wait four months at Sabates. He enlightened me about my accompanying issues and how I could learn to manage my eye issue in the context of my other problems. I really appreciated how he took 'all of me' into account, giving me a solid plan of action.

Great recommendation
I've been seeing Dr. Amsterdam since my previous ophthalmologist retired some 3 years ago. I find Dr. Amsterdam very engaged with my eye problems and scheduling necessary follow up appointments looking for any significant adverse changes before it affects my eye sight adversely.
