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.

My experience with Dr. Wong was wonderful. I’ve used readers for over 20 years, and now, I don’t need glasses at all! He was very kind, knowledgeable, and the office staff are first rate. I highly recommend ??

I had my Lasik surgery in September 2017. Being a physician myself, I had apprehensions about the surgery . Dr. Wong instantly put me at ease with his thorough explanations of the procedure and the elaborate checks and balances that their institute puts in, to avoid an untoward circumstance. He has enormous experience and skill. I recovered nicely over the next few days and got 20/20 vision. Their office was extremely professional, and helpful before and after the procedure. Thanks Dr. Wong!!

Dr. Wong performed cataract surgery on me 2 years ago. I also paid the extra $ to have implants done that allow me to see near and far without the aid of glasses. I am 65 now. It's like a miracle! I had worn glasses since I was 13 years old. Now I can see distant and can read perfectly. I highly recommend Dr. Wong. He is professional, caring, and explains things in a way I can understand.
