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 Turbin is awesome. So friendly and professional
The wait times are not his fault. It’s all of the side tests going on.

Unacceptable wait times
Total time of visit five hours .. of at least which 4 hours and 30 minutes was just waiting ! Which apparently is normal ! Faculty was very dirty .. mold in bathrooms. Dr was nice but that didn’t matter due to the wait and uncleanliness.

Eye Injury
My son was 8 years old when he was hit in the eye with a large tree branch. He had a fractured orbital, severed tear duct, and his upper eyelid was no longer connected to his lower eyelid. He was sent by ambulance to the hospital where Dr Turbin performed an over night surgery. Dr Turbin was in surgery with my son for 3-4 hours, making sure all the splinters were out of the gaping hole he had between his eyeball and orbital bone. He stitched the very deep hole next to his eye perfectly and put a tube in, to hold the tear duct together while it healed. 8 weeks later, the tube was removed. My son is now 17 years old and to this day his eye is perfect. He has 20/20 vision and his tear duct healed perfectly. You can’t even see the scar. I can’t thank Dr Turbin enough for the amount of time and patience he put into making sure my son received the best possible outcome. I would highly recommend him to anyone.

I've been seeing Dr. Turbin for a couple of years now. It's always around 5 hours! He's an excellent ophthalmologist, but I don't know why he can't arrange his appointments better. I see another specialist in that office, and I never have that kind of wait. Emergencies happen, but every time? Doubtful...
