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.

I would definitely not recommend him.
My eyes were worse after my surgery.....And never saw the Dr when I went back.

Be aware of this doctor he makes a good first impression but that is where it ends, he does a good presentation. If you have really good insurance like I do they will keep charging constantly and then be vague when you question it. The office staff are not well trained and do not return calls. It was overall a horrible experience. I worked in the medical field so I was appalled at the surgical center being dirty and rushing people through like an assembly line.

Dr. Suedekum is one of the best cataract surgeons in the Valley. Had surgery on both eyes using the single lens only and the experience has been excellent. His office staff, the team at the Scottsdale Eye Surgery Center could not have been more friendly or professional. Would highly recommend.

Would never recommend. It’s over a year now and my husband and I are both still dealing with correcting the mistakes of this doctor’s treatment. We sought and found another doctor who is competent and helping us overcome the mess that Suedekum left us with. Would give him credit for enthusiasm; thorough and competent, not so much.

Had cataract surgery on Thursday...and already (Sunday) the eye feels great and I can see! I received a standard lens. It’s a miracle. Very impressed with surgery results! Office staff friendly. Surgery center friendly. Would like to know ahead of time if anesthesiologist accepts my insurance. Fortunately she does, but day of surgery is too late to find out. Thank you!

The initial visit was not as thorough as it should’ve been. Upgrading the lense was misrepresented because I had told them I had low macular degeneration. My distance eyesight got worse after the surgery and I had nothing but problems—including ending up at a Retina Specialist then having lasik which didn’t help at all. His surgery center did not seem clean and I felt like a sheep being herded. The surgery staff was very rude. Just not a good experience for something that should’ve been a simple procedure.
