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.

Cataract surgery
Dr Pappas expertise is unparallel. He is compassionate, listens and gives an honest down to earth explanation of the procedure. Having limited vision in my left eye I was apprehensive to have the cataract removed in my right eye. With Dr Pappas empathy and compassion, I did have it removed, and I will be forever grateful for his care and skill. I will recommend him to family and all friends because 'he's simply the best - better than all the rest'!

Very professional, caring and efficient!
We would have given a 10 star if we could! Dr. Pappas and his team are the best! He put us at ease throughout the process of having the cataract consultation, surgery and the follow up. We were nervous but he was caring and patient with us, explained clearly and answered all our questions. The team is truly professional and we received very good care and was amazed by the speed of recovery. Now 2020 vision! Thank you Dr. Pappas and team!

Cataract Surgery
My first cataract surgery was in December of 2023 with the second eye's surgery to follow in January of 2024. For both eyes I had the femto laser assisted surgery with the standard IOL. After both surgeries, I was able to see better at all distances than I had ever seen, even after a lifetime of wearing contacts and glasses. I only need my readers for small print or very up close work. (My only regret was not doing this sooner, but I was afraid of the surgery since a patient is partially awake, which turned out to be a non issue with smooth sailing all the way.) So, I am more than grateful for my new vision and this is why experience and skill matter. If you want your surgery to be in the hands of the best with a positive outcome, then I, too, whole heartedly recommend Dr. Harry Pappas and his well coordinated team of professionals.

Very skillful, loves caring for patients
The process was easy, professional, and successful. The office is a well-organized machine. I get great care at every step of the process. Everyone was pleasant and helpful. But most importantly, my eye surgery was very well done with excellent results and no discomfort. (Hardest part is getting those drops to land in your eye and not your face.)

Dr Pappas
Dr. Harry Pappas is an outstanding Doctor! He listens to your concerns, very intelligent, friendly, and extremely professional. I was so nervous about getting both eyes operated on but he calmed me down by telling me it will change my life and I will be so happy. I am now two weeks out of the second eye being operated on and I now have 20 20 vision in both eyes. He was right, I am so happy being able to see better than I have in over 50 years. Thank you Dr. Pappas for making my life so much better. I would highly recommend Dr Pappas to perform surgery on your eyes!

Dr Pappas takes time to explain your options and ask for your feedback before making the decision on how to proceed. He recently performed cataract surgery on me and I am amazed how quickly I recovered and extremely pleased with the results.

A True Professional
Just recently had laser cataract surgery, and Dr. Papas was a godsend. From the initial consultation, through surgery, to follow up visits, he was highly professional and knowledgeable. He took the time to explain everything in detail to my wife and I, and was never in a hurry to rush to his next patient, he treated us like we were his only patient that day. He listened to our questions and answered them all, without trying to push us towards one procedure over another. My favorite part was when he asked me what I thought, and I fired back well what do you think, he would get this big grin on his face and have a great conversation about what we were discussing. My vision now is the difference between having a black & white TV, to walking into the local Best Buy and seeing the latest HD TV, my vision is that clear. I can’t recommend Dr. Papas more highly for anyone looking to improve their vision. To his mom that reads all his reviews, you should be proud of the surgeon he is.

Dr. Pappas and his staff was excellent
I just had cataract surgery on my left eye last week and am very pleased with both the results and my treatment. My right eye was done a few years ago by a different practice and the comparison is dramatic. Dr. Pappas and his staff were both professional and caring at the same time. The results are amazing and I am very pleased. Having had the same procedure done by a different, well-known practice, the results were dramatically better, both in care and results. I highly recommend Dr. Pappas and his entire staff.

The entire experience exceeded my expectations. The entire staff was friendly and professional. What really stood out to me was the dedication, professionalism, excitement and passion Dr. Pappas exhibited toward improving my vision. After my initial visit, I was extremely grateful and could not believe I will be able to see clearly without glasses. Thank you, Dr. Pappas, again.
