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.

Excellent. Recommend him to my family and friends!

It is impossible to say enough good things about Dr. Pena personally and professionally. I cannot imagine that I would receive better attention and care anywhere than I do from him. His knowledge of and skill for correcting vision problems is unparalleled, and the care he has given me, and I am sure all of his patients, is extraordinary. Every step of the process of determining what would work best for correcting my vision problems was carefully executed, and done with such precision that it made me very thankful that he is my doctor. Dr. Pena has an extremely kind, gentle personality that makes me feel like he is my friend, and I have complete confidence in him. I very happy to be a patient at Pena Eye Institute.

I had cataract surgery, I paid $6,000, (yes, six thousand) dollars out of pocket for the premium lenses, the best Dr. Pena offered. I saw halos around lights before my surgery and was told that would go away. Well it's been over a year since my surgery and the halos are actually worse. Now I see them while watching TV, night driving is horrible. I thought I would be able to drive safely at night. No, I can't. Dr. Pena actually told me to buy a pair of 20 buck glasses they sell on TV. Wow!!

I had LASIK surgery on May 27th and wish I had done it sooner! Dr. Pena and his staff are extremely friendly, knowledgeable, and all around the best. A month later and I still can't believe I can wake up and go - no more contacts. I highly recommend Dr. Pena!

I received new lenses in Sep 2015. In December my wife got her 'new eyes'. We are both very happy to be seeing clearly again. I recommended Dr Pena to my next door neighbor and now he sees clearly too.
