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.

Retina Detachment
I was essentially blind due to a detached retina that was barely still attached. Dr. Horio examined me and then schedule me for immediate surgery at Elmhurst hospital.I don’t remember much after that and at my follow-up office visit after surgery he was amazed at my ability to see clearly so soon.I give thanks first to God for my healing and sight and also give thanks to Dr. Horiofor his God given ability to perform a successful surgery.Thank-you, John Burgess

The WORST Eye Doctor ever whose staff puts numbing drop in one eye and then he comes and puts needle in the wrong eye (non numbed eye) causing excruciating pain to the patient. I don't care what his protocol may be with his staff (to always numb say right eye first), but for him to blindly assume that, and NOT have a back-up/cross-check plan PRIOR to putting needle in his patient's eye, shows his gross carelessness at the cost of his patient's suffering. STAY AWAY from this Doctor, and save your family from medical negligence, pain & frustrations.

I wouldn't recommend him to my worst enemy. He does not communicate, spending an average of about 2 minutes without saying more than a few words. You need to be ready to hit him with a question before he bolts from the examining room. His surgical skills are definitely lacking. A random selection of a retina specialist from any directory will likely find you a better one than him.

I looked for another doctor after Dr Horio did two surgeries to reattach my retina, and refused to help me or even talk to me personally when I experienced severe pain the night after the second surgery. Luckily I had the new doctor when the retina detached again, and this time the retina has stayed in place for years. I happened to speak to two other of Dr. Horio's patients who went blind in the eye he had treated.
