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.

Exceeded Expectations!
Words cannot begin to convey how overwhelmingly grateful I am to have found Dr. Alme! Thank you! I entered these procedures hoping to maintain the vision I had…and left with amazing new vision that has enabled and enhanced so many aspects of my life! My color wheel has been exponentially turned up and the crisp clarity is spectacular! Thanks for sharpening the edges. For the first time, I understand “purple mountains majesty” WAY WOW (the mountains used to just appear dark)! I enter a room confidently, as I can “read” faces. I hike and appreciate the many shades of green…life changing! He is a talented retina specialist who listens and sets clear expectations, and then exceeds those expectations!

I found Dr. Alme sensitive to ways to avoid serious surgery, and found a way around such, though I have a retinal hole. I now enjoy 20/20 vision again.

Dr. Alme has a lot to learn about humility & working with his patients. He was arrogant, rude & less than open to hearing about detrimental studies proving the dangers to patients for the prescriptive eye injections he promotes. He refused to treat my diabetic eye conditions, without using the eye injections he demanded I use (which I am allergic to), which only worsened my eye hemmorhaging and my autoimmune disorder.He seems more concerned w/money-making procedures, than true care for patients.

I met Dr. Alme because I was having an eye issue and found out I had a Cataract. So we decided on surgery. I cannot say enough about this very professional man with a great personality. He puts you at ease and explains everything before and after surgery.

Dr. Alme has been treating me for almost 3 years and he has proven to me to be one of the best doctors that I have ever had in treating my eye problem. He has charm, makes you feel confident that you are in good hands, has very good "bed side manner", and I would recommend him to any and all.

I have been treated by Dr Alme for the past 2 years for Diabetic Retinopathy I can't say enough good about the care I have received or how the staff are caring and considerate. Their office runs so efficiently for the number of patients they see each day. I want to thank each and everyone of them for helping me through this. My vision is improving daily. bless them for the work they do and the hope they bring to so many.
