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.

Horrible bedside and failed attempt
Minimal discussion with her at all. Attitude from several associates prior. Damaged area surrounding eye when trying to mount suction to eye several times and mouthing off blaming me. After the 3rd attempt, I couldn't handle the pain and had to leave. Currently have a few broken blood vessels on the eye itself and some in the surrounding area. Nobody has attempted to reach out to check in and nobody has made any effort to discuss what may have gone wrong...Sadly I may be dropping my regular eye doctor for simply refering me to her.

Seems to do good work, Staff is terrible!
The visits where highlighted with the Staff ineptitude and attitudes. Some Assitance doctors had attitudes that where even worse. I have never dealt with a practise like this.Had surgery with Espandar seems ok there. The Staff really takes down the rating. The post-op instruction managed to skip what to do with the a very import drug I was currently using, medicated Eye drops. I would not recomend.

Very sweet and kind doctor. Seems to genuinely take an interest in the health of her patients. Staff is also excellent and seem to truly enjoy working with her.

Always running late with appointments and totally indifferent about impact on patient's schedules. Don't know why this would be, because she always seems rushed and spends little time. Seems totally disorganized.
