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.

Dr. Richani clearly outlined my choices for the different course of treatment I could follow which made it easy to choose.

My surgery was a complicated surgery. Dr. Rachani is a miracle worker. The outcome of my surgery was amazing! I highly recommend her! Dr Rachani communicated and spent time explaining if I did not understand. She called to check on me and made time to see me when I was concerned. The overall dr office was friendly, communicated with me and had a smile on their face. Thank you dr Rachani for changing my life.

I had been to my optometrist and Opthamologist with canaliculitits or infection of my tear ducts and neither diagnosed or were able to treat my infection. Dr. Richani made the correct diagnosis immediately and took care of my condition in one visit. She drained and opened up my tear ducts and treated my infection. My infection is gone and my dry eye syndrome is resolved. Dr. Richani is da bomb!!!

Dr. Richani was very informative and responsive, answering all my questions and concerns. She also has such a pleasant and caring personality, which inspires great confidence in her abilities. I was quite impressed that she made the follow up call herself to check on my recovery. I am very pleased with the whole experience!
