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 only can see well at one eye. When I needed surgery in my good eye, I had Dr. G perform the surgery. He did an amazing job.

Excellent doctor after seeing him my whole life
I’m 26 and have seen Dr. Gorovoy since I was in 8th grade for ocular hypertension. He’s been excellent in giving me support in all medical issues and peace of mind, never leaving me without a returned call for even an hour after over a decade.

Surgeon's surgeon
I was sent to Dr. G by Dr Swan for complex cataract surgery as I was born with a very unusual type of cataract with a high risk of complications. Dr. Gorovoy is apparently an expert in these types of cases and he was able to successfully complete the surgery

Dr. Gorovoy is an excellent Opthalmic Surgeon. He was very professional, warm and competent. He took the time to discuss any concerns that I had and answered all my questions. I had a blocked tear duct which left me with a watery, irritated and infection in my left eye. At the first visit Dr. Gorovoy gave me medicine to treat my eye infection. My second visit Dr. Gorovoy performed tear duct dilation, probing & flushing. At first I was worried that I might have a bigger problem because I had tear duct surgery due to a serious infection 5 years ago. Dr. Gorovoy assured me with a smile that he could do a surgery if I did not get better. It gave me hope that I would be fine and it meant a lot to me. I got better from the dilation, probing and flushing. I could not be happier from the results and experience. Thank you so much Dr. Gorovoy and his team.

I feel blessed after having catarac surgery performed by Dr. Gorovoy. He replaced my lenses with multifocal lenses and I no longer need glasses for reading, computer or driving. Dr. Ian made the process incredibly easy for me and I benefited from his expertise and very positive attitude.

I had cataract surgery by another surgeon a year ago who was previously "the guy" in Fairfield county about 4 years ago. It wasn't a good experience. I went to Dr. Gorovoy who my friend told me was considered the best the last few years. I am just thrilled at how well this second eye has turned out.

I had cataract surgery with Dr. Gorovoy, and I am absolutely thrilled. When I went to see him, the waiting room was very full. There was another doctor also seeing patients that day, but it seemed like all of the patients were seeing Dr. Gorovoy. He looks very young but is very reassuring. When I was being wheeled back to the operating room, the nurse told me that he was the best surgeon which made me feel much better. He fixed the astigmatism and now I am so happy with my new eyes.

I was referred to Dr. Gorovoy by another popular local cataract surgeon after I had a complication with my initial cataract surgery. I was surprised at how young Dr. Gorovoy is, but he put at my ease during our consultation. I am not entirely sure what happened with my initial surgery but Dr. Gorovoy said that I had complex anatomy that had made me more prone to problems. Nonetheless he was able to fix my problem. I know now who I will be seeing for my other cataract.
