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.

Excellent care
Professional, competent, compassionate, and communicative. Surgery was flawless and I can see clearly again for the first time in years. Went to two other facilities before coming here and very glad I did.

Great surgeon and kind and caring doctor
Dr Kohler did my cataracts quickly, professionally, and with much care. I got an appointment and we set up the surgery in two weeks and the second eye in two weeks from the first. His office and surgical center flow smoothly. All staff are helpful, friendly and know what needs to be done. Dr Kohler has an upbeat attitude, is very caring... making sure you are comfortable and ready for surgery. He takes time to answer any and all questions, and calls the patient the day of surgery before he leaves his office for the day, to check on how things are going. He is professional, polite and has a good bedside manner. I would recommend him 100%.

I had Lasik surgery performed by Dr. Kohler. I was very happy for the results for three years. However I need a adjustment after the three years. I contacted Dr. Kohler's staff and they were unable to do anything for me. I would recommend Lasik for life since I was unaware that your eyes can change that quickly.
