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 Disappointed
I've had nothing but problems after cataract surgery 8 months ago, followed by YAG laser surgery. Dr. Shapiro's attitude completely changed when I said I was having ongoing blurry vision issues. He referred me to a retina specialist, who told me I didn't need a retina specialist and referred me to a cataract/cornea specialist instead. I was confused and left a message for Dr. Shapiro or his assistant to call me and to this day have never received a call. Since then I've randomly run into other former patients of his who had similar experiences. He's very friendly when all goes well, but seems to take an exit if there are any problems. I went to him for several years, but I could not recommend him anymore.

Anderson and Shapiro is a modern and clean facility. Dr. Shapiro was very nice and gave me his opinion regarding my eye injury and my treatment options. He suggested my eye could not be repaired. I ended up having a complex eye surgery in Cincinnati that luckily restored much of my vision in the damaged eye. I understand why he felt it was not fixable but I’m glad that I didn’t listen.
