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. Nieto, the entire Fuerste Eye Clinic staff and the Unity Point surgery team did a great job with my cataract surgery. He was extremely helpful explaining exactly what to expect throughout the entire process, very professional. His follow up with me post-surgery has been incredible. I'm happy to say my vision has improved drastically. Thank you!!
