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.

Very appreciative
It was great meeting Dr Hollingshead. He did a thorough diagnosis and laid out my options. Although I would have been very happy if he could have improved my vision , I understand the inherent risks and am taking his advice. Very nice, educated and helpful staff. I look forward to continuing my eye care with this establishment…thank you

Very thorough!
Visited to determine which ILE lenses were appropriate for me. He and his entire staff were friendly, knowledgeable and thorough. He answered all questions fully and made a recommendation based on prior eye surgery. Now I just am waiting to get the surgery!

Amazingly thorough and organized office
My appointment involved several parts. I easily moved through each phase with the assistance of the cordial and professional staff. A significant amount of information was offered leaving me with few questions. Most important, perhaps, the staff were professional and kind and engaging. Dr Hollingshead in particular displayed an open, informative, engaging style that put me at ease and helped me make an informed decision. Thanks

Competent & Personable
Because of my entirely positive experience, I am leaving a chaotic ophthalmology physician/clinic where I have been a long term patient. Dr Hollingshead/staff are a 180 degrees change- so appreciated as I’m in the middle of surgeries to improve vision. The clinic is clean, calm, caring, & competent. I now have 5star confidence.

Highly recommend Dr Hollingshead
All the staff and physicians were very nice, and very professional. The only reason I gave a 4 star instead of a 5 was due to the length of time the appointment took. I spent a lot of time in the waiting room in between the various exams. My appointment took over 2 hours.

Almost perfect
Dr and staff were wonderful During my cataract surgery apparently they scratched or nicked the inside of my right eye and created scar tissue causing irritation and blurred vision. I’m now waiting 2 to 3 months for the scar to develop more so they can attempt another surgery to remove it. Although somewhat disappointed about this I have no problems in my life compared to the poor victims of Putin’s genocide in Ukraine.
