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.

Excellent Doctor
Dr Daniel Salama is my ophthalmologist, and I couldn’t be more pleased being under his care. His exams are always thorough. As a patient with glaucoma, he manages my pressure with keen attentiveness. Dr Salama recently performed cataract surgery on my right eye. He’s proven success in that area too. It’s a good feeling to have confidence in a physician responsible for your total eye care. The staff, as well, couldn’t be nicer. All around it’s a pleasure to visit Dr Salama’s office.

I went for a simple follow up to my blepharitis, which is a fancy word for a stye. The doctor wanted to dilate my eyes and give me a full exam, which I’d just had 2 months ago. This is after making me wait for 40 minutes. He was rude and crude so I walked out.

I did not see him. I Called to make an initial apt and the receptionist was so curt that I decided to pass. Too bad when a dr has staff that negatively impact his business.

Dr Salama is a very good doctor and I would like to go back to him however his billing department makes it impossible. I went and waited over an hour. Ok sometimes doctors get backed up. Told insurance would pay. Seven months later I received a bill for over two hundred dollars. When I called the office billing they didn’t seem to care too much about it. Nothing they could do. After being a patient in this office for over fifteen years I guess I care more than they do. Good luck to them.

I used Dr. Salama for 15+ years and I like him, however the last time I was there his office administrator was nasty - and I left his practice. She - and I had never seen her before -maybe she was new - but she treated me like crap. She is a nasty individual. I informed Dr. Salama - in writing of the situation - and never heard back from him or anyone from the office...
