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.

Over the past three years Dr. Smith was spor on. The Only Dr. I’ve seen who takes the time and knows his stuff. He is a gift to the community.

Today I had a Very pleasurable experience at Dr. Lindley Smith"s office. He has a wonderful staff from the receptionist to his assistant. But the best part was being treated with such warm smiles and getting to meet a man of such stature! He's been practicing for over 40 years and he still took time to conversate and listen to me as a patient all the while he was giving me a very thorough eye exam. He's a father, grandfather and a wonderful physician and I would highly recommend him.

This Doctor was very rude, unprofessional, and incompetent. I followed up with another, and found the issue. Finally I am being treated for my condition! I would never recommend this Doctor, nor would I allow him to treat (or LACK OF treat, in my case) anyone I know. Good Riddence!

It was a horrible experience! Filthy office, terrible nurse, lovely receptionist. He was very rude and shuffled me out without even checking my eyes! Please, do not go to this Doctor.
