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.

One of my favorite doctors.
I saw Dr. Goli in November, 2023. He is very thorough in both the exam and his explanation of his findings and recommendations. He never seemed rushed and I trusted him and his staff completely. He performed cataract surgeries for me and then referred me to a retina specialist based on his findings. Shortly after my surgeries he unfortunately moved to another state. It's hard to find good doctors like him so if he is now practicing in your area, don't hesitate to make an appointment. I know you won't be disappointed.

Superb Doctor
Dr. Goli knows his stuff. I was very impressed with Dr. Goli. He improved my eyesight with the YAG laser treatment. I see so much better now in low light situations.

When I found out I had cataracts in both eyes. I was very nervous not knowing what was going to happen but see a surgeon. I met Dr. Goli whom I like to refer to as Dr. AMAZING. He made me feel at ease understanding everything I needed to know. His Staff at Jacksonville IL Prairie Eye & Lasik Center were all so gracious and the same at Jacksonville Memorial Hospital. What an outstanding group of people at both places. I can now see 20/20 vision in both eyes. Amazing. With Dr. Goli everything went smoothly. I feel so Blessed.

My mother Glenda had cataract surgery this month on both eyes in Jacksonville and now has 20/20 vision. I am 53 years old and this is the first time I have ever seen her without having to wear glasses. Thank you so much Dr. Goli !

Dr Goli’s treatment of my cataracts via surgery at Jacksonville Memorial Hospital was astoundingly great. He replaced my natural cataract laden lenses with AcrySol IQ Vivity UV IOL lenses. They are a major upgrade to the standard lenses and, although an added expense, are wort every penny. I rate them a superb value. After 35 years and at age 71, I’m finally free from needing glasses full time with a visual acuity of 20/15. The surgery was completed as an outpatient procedure. From registration to release was a very short amount of time and was a comfortable and positive experience. Pre op activities included checking vitals, consulting with the Anesthesiologist, and a final check-in by Dr. Goli. Dr. Goli’s prep and surgical teams are impressively trained, compassionate and competent. All surgical procedures and recovery were completely without discomfort and totally painless. I attribute that to Dr. Goli’s meticulous work, professional and succinctly pleasant demeanor along with his vast experience. He is a supremely gifted surgeon. I highly endorse and recommend Dr. Goli if you require the services of an Ophthalmologist. Follow his instructions and recommendations for lenses choice and you’ll assuredly improve your quality of living beyond your wildest hopes. Thank you Dr. Goli !!!!!

Dr. Goli performed cataract surgery on my eyes in June and July. My experience with him couldn't have been better. He was professional and friendly - answered all my questions clearly. I had a perfect result from my surgery. I'm so glad I had the surgery.
