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.

Okay, people that are saying this doctor is horrible is just crazy he is by far the best eye doctor I have ever seen!!!! he gave me life to my eyes so to speak.

In my first experience at Dr. Abrahamson's office, I was shoed in and out. I came for a routine eye examination and I had a very new technician who incorrectly prescribed me -2 above my previous prescription. She told me that my eyes are quite bad and that I shouldn't sleep with my contacts (I don't sleep with my contacts and never have.) My eyes were dialated and I couldn't quite read the prescription, but when I got back to my apartment I realized that there was no way my eyes were that bad. I

Dr. Abrahamson is great. I trust him. He takes the time to explain things when asked to and always asks if I need anything or if there was something I do not understand he would be happy to talk to me about it. He was always open to talking with my husband as well. Office is always clean and the environment is nice. The wait times on the phone is not expectable. Matt is a great asset to the office as well.
