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.

A very, very good doctor.
I am 80 years old and a very longtime patient of Dr. Braunstein. He is always very knowledgeable and professional, caring, cordial and easy to communicate with. I am very particular with the doctors to whom I trust my healthcare and feel very fortunate to have Dr.Braunstein as one of them.

Awful staff
The appointment are overbooked. Waited 4 hours for my check up and the doctor didn’t even do an eye exam. I told I needed to change my readers because I didn’t see well anymore, he put eye drops in my eyes sent me back outside calls me back and didn’t check my eyes and wrote a prescription for new glasses. And the optic upstairs is even worst, every time I had glasses made with them they did them wrong and had to have them remade.

Excellent Doctor
Precise and thorough exam explains everything fully and knowledgable I fully trust him. He did both of my cataracts perfectly. Staff can be a bit impersonal but the care itself is the best appointments are useless as they schedule dozens at the same time so you’ll be in for a long wait once you arrive.
