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.

Patients are treated like pigs in a slaughterhouse. My cataract lens were the wrong power & put in crooked. Astigmatism not removed. I suffer each day. Run from Woolfson.

Susan was beyond wonderful giving us information and helping with the entire process as well as information after the procedure. David was the best at keeping my husband calm while waiting for the procedure. Dr. Woolfson was amazing and talking him through the procedure and keeping him informed of the progress and what he was doing. He paused while my husband was feeling nervous and listened to him during the procedure.

The staff was very welcoming and puts you at ease the day of surgery and are very helpful leading up to surgery as well. Before I had the surgery my vision was poor the big 'C' at the eye doctor was blurry without glasses and now my vision is 20/20! So thankful for Dr. Woolfson and his team!

My vision was tested 1 day after surgery and not only am I 20/20, but I could even see 20/15! At night, I still see some glare but I was told this is normal. The procedure was as I was told it would be, the staff was caring and I am happy with the overall result. Dr Woolfson took the time to discuss the procedures with us and take on doubts. I was very anxious but I knew I was in good hands.

My results have completely met my expectations already on just day two. Doctor Woolfson is a man of class and a true expert, and his staff follows suit. I would recommend Dr. Woolfson and his staff to all of my friends and family, as a doctor that not only cares about his patients and their education, but as a doctor who is very knowledgeable and a true perfectionist. I cannot thank Doctor Woolfson enough for the impeccable results I am seeing already!
