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 Fogal explains what he is doing, gives results
Dr Fogal is easy to work with. He knows his specialty and provides immediate feedback.

Eye exam
From the intake professional to Kristi who did my initial measurements then to Dr Fogal, everything was perfect. So kind and informative. I am so happy I made this decision to choose MN EyeCare Consultants. Dr Fogal explained everything clearly. There was hardly any wait time. I will recommend this company to everyone.
