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.

He Was A No-Show!
Went for the initial visit, was advised that I needed cataract surgery. Met with his surgical advisor, Bobby, surgery scheduled. Bought their $40 “kit” and drops for $75. Started pre surgical prep three days before surgery. Told to arrive no earlier than 12:10 the day of surgery. Arranged transportation to surgical center, 40 miles away and for the following day for follow up. On the day of surgery, at 8:30AM, surgical center calls and says, “you need to be here by 10:00AM or your surgery will be cancelled, machine broke down ( I’m having regular surgery, that doesn’t affect my surgery). Explained that I had done all of the prep, took time off from work for surgery, the relative that was driving took time off from work for two days, not to mention the $115 I spent for their kit & drops, their answer, THE DOCTOR HAS OTHER THINGS TO DO, REALLY?

I received excellent care and personalized attention from the staff and Dr Baumann. I was very impressed with the staff members especially Brittany who did my initial exam. She was very nice and performed the exam with ease and expertise all with a beautiful smile and delightful personality. Dianne who sat me in her chair for what seemed mere seconds for her to finish another portion of the exam was also quite friendly. Dr Baumann completed the final portion of the exam and he was efficient, knowledgeable and kind. I would recommend this practice highly.

If you are looking for ophthalmologist, I highly recommend Dr.Baumann lll, I have been going to him for over 20 years, he is always professional, attentive and concerned about your eye care. He takes the time to explain in terms you can understand, I am blessed to have such an awesome doctor. The staff is exceptionally friendly, and wait time is very minimal.

Dr. Baumann was recommended to us by our friend & I am so pleased we chose him for my cataract surgery. Dr Baumann made me feel very comfortable about the procedure. From the pre op, post op, surgery staff & follow ups everyone was caring & I always felt that I was top priority. I highly recommend Mid Florida Eye Center Mt Dora & Dr Baumann.

I was referred to Dr. Baumann III by many members here in my Senior community. They said he is the best Opthalmologist I will ever find. I can only agree. The care and results he has given me have been wonderful. His practice and his staff are absolutely top notch. Everyone shows a sincere interest in your wellbeing. Appointments run smoothly and on time. I highly recommend Dr. Baumann III and Mid-Florida Eye Center.

Try to imagine seeing a blur without thick glasses your whole life. That and being the fattest kid in school did not facilitate my social calendar. Maybe that's not such a bad thing since it forced me to study. That paid off. Anyway, I was lucky enough to get cataracts and Dr. Baumann removed them and replaced my lens with the super duper implants. Now I have hawkeyes. No complications. Worth every penny.

Before the cataract surgery performed by Dr. Baumann I had great difficulty seeing to drive at night. I could only follow a golf balls flight for about 80 yards. After the surgery I could easily drive at night and can know see the golf ball more than 200 yards away. Thank you Dr. Baumann

Dr. Baumann was referred to me by my sister who works at the Eye Center. I was told prior from another doctor that I needed cataract surgery. I felt confident that Dr. Baumann was the right doctor to perform my surgery after my sister raved about him. My sight is restored, I was totally impressed with Dr. Baumann and his beside manner. He put me at ease before the procedure and and I can't say enough about his staff who followed up after my surgery. My sister was right! Thank you Dr. Baumann!
