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.

Just had a stent put in my right eye and cataract removed from the same eye on the same day. Everything went well including the care and interest displayed by the staff. As for Dr. Prywes, he is kind, caring and takes time in explaining the procedure and follow-up care. I would highly recommend him for the concerns regarding Glaucoma and cataracts.
