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 eye Doctor. Dr. Masters is very knowledgeable, he takes is time with you and will answer all your questions. He has a very gentle touch too. We look forward to our annual visits. His Office Manager is very nice too, the office is clean!

I've been a patient of Dr Masters for about 10 years and he's the BEST! I was born with congenital cataracts and am on my second set of lens implants. He doesn't do cataract surgery but he recommended me to a terrific eye surgeon, Francis Chang in Mountain View. I'm in my mid-60s now and can see (and even read) almost perfectly without glasses. Dr Masters' office is calming and he takes the time he needs to do a thorough exam. I would highly recommend him.
