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.

Highly skilled Strabismus surgeon
Dr. Liebert is very knowledgable and takes exceptional care and time to help her patients understand the process of Strabismus Surgery. As an adult, I suffered from strabismus for more than 30 years. Dr. Liebert took meticulous care during the entire process from appointments to guiding me through the entire process. She even offered strategies to align my eye to help it move closer to alignment in order to get the best possible result for surgery. I underwent surgery for the strabismus and the results are amazing. Better than I could have ever imagined. My eye looks great! I highly recommend Dr. Liebert. I was nervous about the procedure at first but so thankful I had the surgery. I am very fortunate to have met this incredible doctor and grateful for everything she did throughout the entire process.

Doctor and staff are very pleasant. The wait times are abysmal. Do a test and wait an hour. Take a scan and wait another hour. The only understandable wait time is for eye dilation.

Our daughter has been a patient of Dr. Liebert’s since she was 1 year old (now she’s 12)! Dr. Liebert has the patience of a Saint, is very sweet and a positive influence in our daughter’s life. We recommend her to anyone who asks for a pediatric ophthalmologist.
