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 found a great Eye Doctor , Dr. Ouano .
The first thought was what a nice person he was . He made me feel very comfortable in an office setting . Then he went over all the information in my charts . Then he patiently explained my conditions and answered my questions . Dr. Ouano brought to my attention that I needed eye lide surgery and promptly referred me to a physician the next day . HIs nurse , Jennifer was nice and very professional . The whole office from the front desk on were friendly . I would highly recommend Dr. Ouano and Staff to my friends . I give them five STARS

Awesome Eye Doctor!
After reading some of these reviews, if you want a teddy bear, go to the toy store. This gentleman cares about making sure your eyes are taken care of. He is extremely knowledgeable and doesn’t frivolously make recommendations. He is very straightforward and shows his kindness through his desire to make sure you receive the best care. I have always appreciated his kindness through his great ability! Thank you Dr. Ouono.

He does not like to answer questions and takes offense when I do. He said he did not feel I had confidence in him and that I should seek a second opinion. He has no "bedside manner" whatsoever. I cancelled my surgery with him.
