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.

Excellent Doctor and facility
I highly recommend Dr. Hertzog and his entire staff. He did my cataract surgery and I now have 20 20 vision with no vision issues. His facility is run smoothly and professionally.

Dr Hertzog was always on time pre-op, the procedure and post-op, unlike most physician visits where there is a significant wait time. Dr. Hertzog was very thorough in his diagnosis and spent a considerable amount of time going over the expected outcome post surgery. He took time to answer any question or concerns I had regarding the procedure. His demeanor and professionalism is unmatched in the field of todays medicine.

A very positive cataract surgery experience
I recently underwent bilateral cataract removal by Dr.Hertzog. The experience was very positive. I was well prepared for the procedures and the staff at both the office and the surgical center treated me very kindly and professionally. I would highly recommend Dr. Hertzog and the Hertzog Eye Center to other patients.

I give Dr. Hertzog and his staff my highest recommendation. I had cataract surgery in both eyes. The experience was matchless. Dr. Hertzog is a consummate professional and his staff reflects his dedication to excellent medical care and to the personal needs of each patient. Through every step of the way – from optical evaluation, pre-operation visits, surgery and post-op - Dr. Hertzog was exemplary. Of particular note, the surgery was one of the most efficient, stress free, well-organized medical affairs I have experienced. And the results? 20-20 in both eyes! Well done, Dr. Hertzog!

New Eyes For Richard
When I failed the vision test for my drivers license renewal, I knew it was time to take care of my eyes. Hertzog Eye Care was a slam dunk, the beautiful new building so convenient to our home, their long history of eye care for members of my family, it was a natural choice. And I wasn't disappointed! I felt right at home in the spacious waiting room, the friendly greeting of the staff, little waiting for appointments, the modern diagnostic equipment expertly operated by the very pleasant, professional technicians, I new immediately I was in good hands. Dr. Hertzog was was great, putting me completely at ease regarding his assessment of my needs and the treatment required to remedy them.It turned out I had cataracts in both eyes and was able to schedule corrective surgery in a very short wait time. The relatively simple, painless surgery has greatly improved both my distance and close up vision. It's now like like new, beautiful world out there. THANK YOU HERTZOG EYECARE!

Wow!
Dr Hertzog and staff perhaps have the most efficient, friendly and professional team I have ever experienced in a medical office. For my cataract surgery, I felt I could trust him in helping to make the choice of lens to get the most improved vision. I had worn progressive glasses for at least 25 years! Right now I am glasses free! All the appointments and follow ups went like clockwork. Wow!

Consistently Excellent
I am a long-time patient with Hertzog Eye Care and recently had cataract surgery with Dr Dieter Herzog. As usual, the entire procedure from pre-op, post-op visits to surgeries, were done with precision, care and attentiveness to my concerns. I cannot recommend this practice enough. 5-stars totally deserved.

A Sharp and Clear vision again!
Everything is so much better since I had both liquid lens replaced in each eye. Dr Hertzor is very knowledgeable and answered every question I had concerning each aspect of my eye surgery. Surgery went very well with very little discomfort, and now I'm so grateful to have 20/20 in each eye. Thank you again, Dr. Hertzog

Stop Looking for a Great Ophthalmologist!
Dr. Herzog is experienced, kind, patient, warm but professional, and he explains things very well so you know what to expect. I have had several eye docs and he is the best. I never thought I could see this well again with my checkered optical history of many misadventures. Go with Dr. Herzog! You will not be disappointed in any way.

I was recommended to Hertzog Eye Care by a friend. Dr Hertzog is very professional and knowledgeable. The staff is friendly and efficient. I came through the surgery with flying colors. My vision is restored! I opted for lense replacement so I no longer have to wear contacts or glasses.

The Gift of Sight
After reading the bio of Dr. Dieter Hertzog, I knew I was in good hands. My eyes were just bad enough to qualify for insurance coverage which was nice. When I learned that I could have my cloudy, old lenses replace with shiny new ones, I was all in even though the new, upgraded lenses themselves were not covered. There is a range of possible replacements but the total for those I selected was about $5,700. I penciled it out and after purchasing all my various, necessary glasses for the next 6-8 years, I would break even. And, the newly implanted lenses will last forever. Sold! Their staff is on time, courteous and efficient. Dr. Dieter is clam, usually ahead of schedule (honestly), explains everything well, and is very, very good at specifying the exact prescription for the replacement lenses you need. The surgery couldn't have been easier, was completely painless and the recovery was only one 'resting' day. I feel as though I've gotten an incredible gift and I am extremely grateful.

Best eye doctor 20/20
I had a younger age cataract in one eye and chose to go to Dr. Dieter Hertzog. I was impressed with his reviews and being a 5th generation eye doctor. My vision was terrible, he recommended I get a specialty toric lens which fixes astigmatism too. I got my lens replaced yesterday and now I have 20/20 vision. It is getting clearer by the hour. He is an excellent surgeon and explained everything during the operation as well as being so nice. I am super grateful. Everyone in the office is great as well and they make things feel personal. It really matters to me how nice they are and how comfortable it is at the office. Thanks again. This is a life changer.

Wonderful Experiences
We have had multiple visits and experiences with Dr Hertzog and the Eye Care staff. All of our visits have exceeded our expectations. Dr Hertzog is a wonderful clinician. The staff are friendly, organized and very efficient. The office is nicely appointed and comfortable. Dr Hertzog removed my husbands cataracts recently and that process was well orchestrated. I am so glad to have the Hertzog Eye Associates close by.

The Hertzog legacy continues
I came to find out that Ophthalmologist is the family business, and it shows. Dr. Hertzog has proven to me to be the best there is. He, and the entire staff, are the most professional, knowledgeable, empathetic, and genuine of any eye doctor I have ever had in 60 years. Having had a previous cataract procedure gone array, Dr. Hertzog immediately knew what to do and took immediate measures to correct the error. I highly recommend anyone who is in need of vision adjustment, look no further than the Hertzog organization.
