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.

Macular Shot in the eye
My 93 year old mom moved to FL last year and we needed a new specialist for her and have seen Dr. Fortun several times for her eye shots. The whole experience took hours between bouncing from room to room and waiting rooms. Then Dr. Fortun walks in, barely mumbles, hurts my mom so bad she screamed and he left the room. He spent about 2 minutes with her, had zero bedside manner and barely gave her any dignity. After that we are NEVER going back. It was shameful on his part. How to be treated like cattle. Bascom and Dr Fortun.
