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.

He knows what he is doing.
He covers the details of the procedure. The consultation was extensive with qualified support staff doing preliminary tests. Well worth the wait.

Absolutely amazing experience!
Dr. Satar did cataract surgery on both eyes within about 3 weeks. He has changed me life, literally. I’m 56, and have worn glasses since I was a child. But now, it appears that all I will need is readers! He is so caring and kind, answers all questions (I had a LOT) and his professional manner is second to none. His staff are equally amazing, and all so very kind. I highly recommend him for any eye surgery. Also, his office is so beautiful! When you walk up to the door there is a beautiful water feature, lovely landscaping, with such a welcoming feel. The interior is stunning, very calming, and I think the prettiest doctors office I have ever been in! I promise you won’t be disappointed in any way with Dr. Satar and his lovely staff.

A highly skilled doctor who cares!
I absolutely LOVE Dr Satar! He's extremely personable, highly skilled, never makes you feel rushed, takes time to fully explain things & to answer all of your questions. My eye surgeries were painless & I can't believe the difference in my vision!!! I don't know why I waited so long to have surgery! Dr Satar is rare in that he genuinely cares about his patients. I highly recommend him!!!

Best opthamology specialist anywhere!
Dr. Satar was very Professional, kind, caring and efficiently handled my secondary cataract on the spot! His staff is knowledgeable and extremely pleasant.

Very good care/concern for the patient.
Dr Satar explained everything very well before the cataract procedure. He was very kind- good bedside manner. Office was easy to handle all the scheduling. I liked that you could go to 2 different surgery centers to accommodate times that worked for us.
