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. Toler takes the time and care to do a thorough exam of the eyes. With his experience and knowledge he was able to find an issue with the back of my eye. He quickly advised me to go to the ER, thank God, as it was a serious matter. He knew not to wait a minute. He kindly answered the call from the ER doctors sharing his findings so they could have an insight on what he saw before ophthalmologists and neurologists could be brought in. He also took the time, after hours, to call me to check on how I was doing, and to find out the results of my tests, etc. One can get an eye exam any where to get a prescription, including Dr. Toler. But, I learned today that it is extra important to have eyes fully examined as well by someone who can catch something early that could save your vision. I highly recommend Dr. Alan Toler.

Prices were twice what I have paid other Optometrists in the past. The prescription Dr. Tolar gave me was wrong. This was not a good experience and I can not reccomend this practice.
