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 am not recommending Dr Demartini. I went there for a simple contact lens change because my regular eye docs are in SF. He told his staff, not me, to tell me that I had to go back to the doc's in SF instead of him for future changes. What? I am blind and traveling is really hard. I was polite and didn't make any sort of fuss. I am so perplexed. I feel awful at his treatment and confused as to why he would say such a thing. I hope I am not retaliated against because of this.

My mother contracted shingles on her face which got into her left eye and subsequently lost vision to it. We were referred to Dr. Demartini who performed cornea transplant surgery which restored her vision the that eye. Dr. Demartini is by far one of the very best in his profession and I would highly recommend him to anyone!!!!
