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. Mayer is an excellent ophthalmologist, specializing in treatment of glaucoma, and one of the kindest medical professionals I have ever dealt with. I have been his patient for the last 4 years and have had experience with him in the office and in the eye surgery center. He is conservative enough in his treatment plans, explains everything thoroughly and inspires a high level of confidence. I would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone.

Both my wife and I have had both eyes operated on for cataracts and the results for both of us has been outstanding. He has an excellent personality and takes the time to make sure his patients feel comfortable with their operation.

Worst Doctor ever! Rude, condescending, and totally full of himself...and frankly he shouldn't be. A graduate of Centre college (? What?), Medical College of Ohio (? Is that even an MD program), and Yale glaucoma fellowship (which is also horrible btw), he has less than impressive credentials. He is NOT the first to offer istent in the Washington DC area as many general ophthalmologists have been offering this for years. He is a very small man with very poor skills. Stay away, I tell you.

Dr Mayer is always very attentive and takes some to explain everything in a way that I could understand. When I had an emergency earlier this year, they were able to get me in quick.
