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 had been to a dozen doctors prior to coming to Dr Henderson. I came to her afraid, broken, and nearly blind at 33. She is very confident in what she does and had answers for my questions before they were even asked. Not only did she do an outstanding job with my cataract surgeries, but she is also doing a spectacular job with my maintenance and upkeep with my glaucoma. I would most definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a great doctor who cares.

Polly ruined my wife's near vision and left her with substandard long vision. She was rude, arrogant and uncaring. After repeated pleas she totally ignored our needs. We took my wife to other Dr's that substantiated her unsatisfactory performance and suggested corrective surgery. I would steer clear of her unless you want your sight ruined.

Dr. Polly Henderson performed trabeculectomy on my right eye on June 2. Not only was i extremely satisfied with the job she did, the staff assisting her was friendly and professional. I would definitely recommend Dr. Henderson.
