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.

Dr. Metrikin is a competent professional. However, how he runs his practice is appalling. It is disrespectful and disdainful of his patients. It says, "My time is important. Yours isn't." I need to keep my meter running. Packed waiting rooms. Waits of an hour in the outer waiting room and an hour in the inner waiting room are typical. This is not a public walk-in clinic. These are scheduled appts for patients with Medicare and insurance. This is no way to treat patients.

My Optometrist found what appeared to be a detachment of my retina. A call was made to Dr. Metrikin's Office and within an hour, I was in to see him. The outpatient surgery for reattacent was performed the same afternoon, and I believe the outcome will be successful.
