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.

I feel very comfortable with Dr. Shah's advice. He never downplays the issues that I might be having. I appreciate his honesty and sincerity.

Dr. Shah is an excellent eye doctor. He gave me back my eye sight when I had lost most of it by having shingles on my cornea twice. He is very knowledgeable and intuitive about the eye and how to treat it. He is also a very nice person. I would highly recommend him to anyone having cornea problems.
