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.

My first visit
Dr. Chen's examination of my eyes, was very extensive and I was highly satisfied with her. She explained the results and the plan of care for my condition very well. I won't lie I am very nervous about the upcoming surgery, but left her office knowing I was in good hands.

First time seeing Dr. Chen.
Dr. Chen gave me a thorough retina exam. She knew what she was doing and I now have a complete understanding of the condition of my eyes.

Referred by Dr. Thomas for an abnormality in my right eye. This was picked up on a routine eye exam. It appears to be an age related Macular Degeneration. Great explanation and indicated no treatment necessary at this time. Will monitor for the time being.
