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.

I see Dr. Liggett for issues with both my eyes. I was a patient at the famous Wills Eye Hospital in PA, before Dr. Liggett. I dreaded going for my visits, because of the pain and often unkindness of the staff. From my very first visit at Dr. Liggett's office, NO PAIN, NO UNKINDNESS. As a matter of fact this office deserves a, "Gold Star", for their Thoroughness, Competency, Professionalism and Empathy.

Yes, medically, they know what they are doing. Beware when they say they are going to run your insurance. That does NOT mean they take your insurance. They are not up front with that information, and leads to large bills.

I actually have recommended Dr. Liggett to a good friend and she was very happy with her visit and treatment. I was devastated when he left Connecticut for Hilton Head (yes, the weather is better there!) as I was very happy with my treatment and result, although I am continuing to be followed by a protegee of his, a very competent doctor and very likable person. I do miss Dr. Liggett; he saw me through a rather rough time and made me feel that I’d be okay, feel more relaxed, and positive.

The first physician to give me a diagnosis after retina consultants and decades of persistent sight loss. Answered my questions and explained the complexity of diagnoses.

HE HAS BEEN THE ONLY DOCTOR I'VE SEEN FOR MY EYES THAT HAS SHOWN ME MY EYE TESTS AND VIEWS, AFTER OPERATIONS BY OTHERS, AND EXPLAINED WHAT WAS DONE. I NOW KNOW WHAT GLASSES HAVE TO CORRECT. DR. LIGGETT WAS VERY PATIENT AND CAN ANSWER ANY QUESTION.

I cannot begin to say how impressed I was with Dr. Liggett. He explained everything in great detail, and was very reassuring about the effectiveness of his treatment. I would not hesitate to recommend him to any of my friends.
