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.

Top Tier Expertise, Skill And Caring
I have had 8 ophthalmologists over 25 years (lived in 5 states) and 2 of those doctors were at Bascom-Palmer (they display a banner labeling them as the #1 eye hospital in the US). Dr Haines is at the top of my list for the care he has given me. In the 4+ years he has been treating me, we have battled diabetic retinopathy and recently wet macular degeneration has entered the picture. I had to wear a visor with magnifiers in order to read but not now. I can even read the small font on my iPhone! One very important aspect of my treatments has been the injections into my eyes. I know it sounds scarier than a zombie apocalypse but Dr Haines has made them as painless as possible. The most uncomfortable part is the instrument holding your eyelids open... and he does the injection so fast that this is negligible. I am guessing I have had over 10 injections done by Dr Haines and I don't even think about them beforehand. That is a huge comfort! Thank you, Dr Haines.
