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.

DO NOT go here without getting a second opinion MY CORRECTIVE surgery did not last, did not work for close or far away vision-both did not last A waste of almost 5,000 plus huge copays also that were never explained , Go somewhere else I also had 2nd procedures by same doctor that were supposed to clear up issues and that didn't work either First opinion I received elsewhere would not do these procedures on my eyes, said eyes were not in good enough condition I SHOULD HAVE LISTENED , THIS WAS A WASTE OF MONEY and this office wanted almost 5,000 up front -cash or visa . I requested all my money back to go elsewhere to see if a Syracuse doctor can help me since I am almost blinded in the one eye for close vision and the other eye the far away vision did not last even a month-this is after a second procedure on both eyes Office will not return - refund my money or even call back PLEASE GO ELSEWHERE disappointing horrible results with this doctor
