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 Schaab is great.
Dr Schaab is very thorough and quite patient. I would definitely recommend her to anyone having a retinal issue. I was not as impressed with the female tech who did some of my intake. Maybe she was having a bad day, but I found her to be condescending and completely random. I’m happy to provide details about my health history and medication list, but her attitude really annoyed me. She did not inspire trust. I hope I never have to see her again.

Wonderful Doctor
Thus is my fourth appointment for followup care to stabilize my one eye. Since everything appears stable am weaning off the eye drops and will have another checkup in 6 weeks. Excellent care and concern for my eyes and treatment. Highly recommend Dr. Schaab.

This visit was just to examine my left eye to make sure it's doing ok without further injections. Everything went smoothly and the scan results were good.
