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. Smith is Excellent
I can always count on Dr. Smith to get it right. I always get my eyes examined by her and the prescriptions for glasses are spot on including the pair I use for extended computer use that provide the blue filter. Excellent service and great personality and sense of humor.

Thorough and caring
Dr. Smith saw me at the last minute due to the severity and complications of my eye issues. Not many doctors would do that. I would provide Dr. Smith with 20 stars if I could . Simply the best.

Dr. Smith is so thorough. Her understanding of my astigmatism and how to correct for it has given me near perfect vision with my gas permeable bi-focal contact lenses. I can read the smallest print and distance sight is near 20/20. She works with my high demand for seeing near, close up and far with patience and precision.
