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.

Long overdue
I was born legally blind. I navigated with my sense of hearing, smell, and bright colors until I was 6 years old, and in first grade. It was the early 80s and here I was a little six-year-old wearing these huge bifocals. I didn’t care I could finally see my parents face for the first time. I remember asking my parents permission to sleep with my new glasses so I could see my dreams better. Fast forward 16 years later when I was 22 years older I had eye surgery performed by Dr. Shapiro and 25 years later at 47 years old I am so grateful for Dr. Shapiro He truly is the best Ophthalmologists. I would recommend Dr. Shapiro 100% hands-down. Thank you Dr. Shapiro for giving me the ability to see, you are appreciated.
