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.

Dr Stern removed my cataracts. I had excellent outcomes. The office is friendly yet professional and thorough. I also received excellent care and treatment at The Cleveland Eye and Laser surgery center.

I’ve been a patient of Dr. Stern’s office for contact lenses for many years. Recently I was diagnosed with cataracts in both eyes. I had the first eye surgery yesterday and follow up appointment this morning. Dr. Stern was very professional, compassionate and thoroughly informative in explaining the entire surgical procedure and follow-up. I was totally at ease during the first surgery and anticipate the next surgery with the same confidence. Dr. Stern has my highest recommendation .
