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.

A scary, but wonderful experience!
I had to have a procedure that involved inserting a needle in my eye. This petrified me; but upon entry into the office, I felt comfortable. The front desk staff were so nice, courteous and helpful. One of the technicians, Darryl was very helpful in getting me to relax and even laugh before the procedure. The Doctor's assistant, right before the procedure was, too, very calming and helpful. Then, Dr. Weichel was great, explaining the pictures and procedures very clearly. I will recommend Dr. Weichel to anyone needing his services.

Unacceptable
Todays visit took almost 2 hours wait time before husband was actually seen by Dr. Weichel. Whatever the problem, patient should be given the option of resceduling. At minimum patient should be informed Dr is running seriously behind. As spouse, I was waiting 2 hours in hot car in rooftop parking.

A great first time experience! The Doctors and staff were very courteous, friendly, professional, and kept to schedule. Ample parking and the clean, spacious, and covid19 safe facilities adds to the overall ambience of the office spaces.
