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.

Avoid him if you can
My mother was treated terribly by Dr Moss. He walked in saying he was having a bad day and continued to sigh and jump around in his chair cause he was so upset how everything was not going his way. He was short with mom and called her “a mess”. What a spoiled child he seemed to be and he had a temper tantrum in the office and we seemed to be blamed for most everything. My mom ended up going to the ER cause her blood pressure was over 200. Avoid him! It’s not worth it! He needs to learn how to handle stress and not take it out on the patients!

Dr. Saxton T Moss is a remarkable Ophthalmology doctor. He has been my doctor for years. In 2017 I had lens implant surgery due to my astigmatism and the surgery was excellent. Recently, 2019 I got a chemical burn at work he worked after hours and found his assistance invaluable in this matter. He handled my crisis and my vision is outstanding again. He is the best!

Well after his sighs of having to work on the weekend he quickly rushed us to his office. Then giving a lady thirty years his senior a lecture as if talking to an adolescent about her neglect to her follow glaucoma drops. Not knowing her situation, struggle or the will it took for her to be their for her first medical emergency of her life. Not knowing the many hands she has held in the life and death situation which many ended in the latter. Comparing her to third world countries.True gentleman
