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.

Dr. Rhee and Wolfe Clinic can be trusted.
Dr. Rhee is very pleasant and kind. He is an excellent physician. I have great respect for him and trust his judgement. He followed me closely when I had a bleed in my eye and was very thorough gradually increasing my visits to follow the bleed to its resolve. I know Wolfe Eye Clinic to be the best there is and would not consider going anywhere else for my eye care. My Father's eyesight was saved by doctors at Wolfe Eye Clinic back in 1951 and again in 1962 when he suffered detached retinas. I know the clinic screens and accepts only the best doctors who prove themselves to be just that. I highly recommend Dr. Rhee to anyone who needs eye care.

fixed my itchy eyes
My eye was really bothering me and they were able to get me in the very next day. With the meds I got , both my eyes were feeling better by the next morning. And Lacey, his assistant, was great, very friendly and knowledgeable. Actually, all of the staff I dealt with were very friendly and easy to talk to.

Outstanding
Dr. Rhee is a wonderful dr. He's knowledgeable and knows his stuff. He's also quite personable. He explained everything well and thoughtfully answered all of my questions with candor, in a conversational and informative manner. I saw him on a busy day when he was running behind schedule and dealing with complex cases. I was probably his last appointment and he treated me with the same energy and caring demeanor as if I was his first. He was even considerate enough to squeeze in an extra test. He's everything you could ask for in a doc. I highly recommend Dr. Rhee!
