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.

Here for my 3 month follow up!
Since my initial consultative visit for cataract surgery for both eyes, I knew I was in good hands. Everything has gone smoothly and a complete success! I couldn’t be more happy about overcoming blurred vision, appreciating more vibrant colors, and seeing clearly! It’s been life changing!

unprofessional at best
85 yr old mother made to wait 4hrs. “appointment “ at 11a, not taken until 3:15p without ANY updates unless/until i asked. told 45 minutes ago she was in recovery and that it would be 20mins. delays are one thing, this is a simple matter of OVER BOOKING. unprofessional, irresponsible, rude, and disrespectful. go elsewhere

My mother and I went to visit Dr. Immanuel for our eye exams, we are both scheduled for surgery and we couldn't be more at ease and confident with any other Doctor. Dr. Immanuel was professional, punctual, informative, patient, friendly and extremely thorough with his examination. We are very pleased and confident with Dr. Immanuel and highly recommend him, you will not be disappointed.

Thanks to Dr. Immanuel, I can see!!
Dr. Immanuel, and his entire staff, are truly amazing!! I can honestly say that without Dr. Immanuel's highly exceptional skill, high-level experience, and wise choices, I would not be able to see today. I can't find words to express what my eyesight means to me; I am a professional musician and I wouldn't be able to continue without the eyesight that Dr. Immanuel made possible for me. I had numerous eye injuries, most doctors wouldn't have even agreed to try to help me. I can't find words to express my gratitude to Dr. Immanuel, and is super friendly, skilled, kind, reassuring and accomodating staff. With special thanks to Andrea! Whatever it takes to see Dr. Immanuel, make it happen, you will be so glad that you did!!!

Top notch cataract surgeon!
As a physician in practice > 25 years, i give Dr Immanuel the highest recommendation. He’s the person to use for anyone in need of cataract surgery! I had both eyes. (1 month apart). Both came out perfect. Dr Immanuel did a perfect job. Don’t let his calm demeanor fool you he’s a top notch surgeon & a perfectionist too. Staff were all very professional as well. His practice manger Andrea was on top of everything and ensured all pre-surgical steps were completed in a timely fashion! She called my insurance company, my PCP to schedule medical clearance and more! Give him & his office staff a 10/10 State of the art equipment too! I urge anyone in need cataract surgery to use Dr Immanuel. For the picky ones like me Dr Immanuel is a not only an MD but also has a PhD too. Named top doctor by Castle Connolly too. So don’t waste your time looking anywhere else. Top notch doctor who will help you get best outcome. Now i can better serve my own patients. Thank you Dr Immanuel

The schedule was a mess. 12.20PM appointment and my daughter was not seen by the Dr until 1.35PM. Figure out a way to be more timely with his calendar.

I have been telling everyone I know not to hesitate about having cataract surgery. I am so happy with the results of my two surgeries done by Dr. David Immanuel. It is truly a miracle that he performs. The Sight MD Staff are all so wonderful, caring and kind, as well. I was impressed with how much detail goes into preparing a patient on surgery day. It's quite impressive how much care and compassion is afforded to each person. If you need this surgery please do not hesitate to have Dr. Immanuel and his Staff help you through each step of the way. I am absolutely thrilled with my regained sight and quick recovery. Cataract surgery is a miracle thanks to Dr. Immanuel and the Nursing and Administrative Staff.
