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.

Great surgeon. Great human.
On Oct. 18, 2021 Dr Langer performed an extremely challenging and delicate operation to correct a very rare condition I had, and the outcome was 100% perfect. Although Dr. Langer was out of my network, my carrier treated him as “in network” because no one else of comparable skill and experience could be found within a radius of 75 miles, and I live about 35 miles from NYC! Dr. Langer went way out of his way to help me in every way possible through an anxious time. I will always be grateful to Dr. Langer

Successful Blocked Tear Duct Surgery
I put off having a DCR surgery for 7 years. Just the thought of creating a new pathway of how the tears drain scared me away from the surgery. After dealing with a watering eye for 7 years, I finally decided to have the surgery, as I no longer could take it. Post the surgery, one week in, I was not tearing anymore. Finally, I felt as though I was no longer crying. I can even wear mascara again, something I had to give up prior. I highly recommend Dr. Paul Langer and his staff. Everyone was extremely, caring and supportive. The most is important thing is Dr. Langer is an expert in this area and when you have this type of surgery you need an expert!
