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 Brown completely took advantage of me and my lack of experience with an eye Dr.The good ole Dr told me that I needed glasses full time. After spending $300 and repeatly telling his assistant that I couldnt see anything far away with the glasses he prescribed to me she tells me it will take time to adjust.Dr Brown told me to wear the glass at all times and my eyes would adjust to them. After getting a 2nd option I bought an expensive pair of reading glasses. Don't waste your time or $ on him

One appointment for exam....on the fourth visit after exam (all in six months) .....My eye sight was actually worse because of his incompetence....he changed my script...then sent them back saying it was the lens makers fault...then it was me....he said it was my problem which he was finished-my problem. I went to an eye doctor in Asheville who put me back in my old lens and could not understand why my script was changed so much when it did not need to be changed at all. Please do not use him.
