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.

Holiday weekend, suspected retinol detachment! What do you do? Call your ophthalmologist of course! And what does a dedicated doctor who is passionate about his patients do? Schedules an immediate appointment. Thank you for your above and beyond commitment Dr. Mcgann!

I was hopeful upon my arrival at the practice of Dr. Mcgann; however after only two visits I can only recommend that patients steer clear of this unprofessional opthalmologist. Insisted my bacterial eye infection was an allergy, and then recommended I stop antibiotics so that he could test my eyes when the infection was full force. In this state of immense discomfort and illness he was “too busy” to see me even though he instructed me to come in today without an appt for a simple swab.

I had Cataract surgery - the doctor didn't seem to be as responsive to what I thought were serious symptoms. Finally went to another doctor. I don't know exactly why or how, but now I have three forms of glaucoma (uveitic, traumatic, and open-angle) and the need for a Belvardt Implant for the rest of my life.
