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.

The best ophthalmologist!
Dr. Scelfo being seen our four year old since before he turn one year old. She was the one who recommended a more holistic treatment to my son eyes issues (Astigmatism and Browm Syndrome in the right eye) instead of a surgery. Thanks to her, our som being so good using glasses, and is getting better! Her team is very caring, Dr. Scelfo go far and beyond to make sure eyes are correctly checked and measured. We are so happy with her and her team! Our son like them all and always feel comfortable. Thank you! We are greatfull for your caring and professionalism!

Book her
During the visit with my daughter, Dr. Scelfo was not only professional but also empathetic. She explained everything in detail and that’s something I appreciate. Some doctors brush your questions off when in a rush but her expertise and care when explaining surpassed my expectations. Thank you!
