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.

Referred but…
The nurse was great and helped talk me through how to explain what was going on. However, my doctor was incredibly abrasive. I didn’t feel heard or that I could get a word in. My neurologist referred me here and so I was very upset being talked over the whole time. As a health care professional it is imperative that their patients are heard and validated. I didn’t feel heard or validated. I left feeling very upset and have no intention to return or recommend this office to anyone.

Very knowledgeable
Sandra Brown is very knowledgeable. She and her staff have been very kind. I have high spinal fluid pressure which can cause eye issues and requires yearly monitoring. She was able to get my medication lowered which is good.

Dismissive of patient’s concerns
We were referred to Dr. Brown by my teenager’s neurologist for an eye issue. We were in the office for 2 hours and 15 min for our consult, most of the time spent waiting. When Dr. Brown came in, she was very dismissive. When I asked for clarification of her findings, she was very rude to me, treating me like I was a toddler. I would not recommend her to anyone.

Excellent at her profession
Dr Brown doesn’t have the best bedside manner but she is excellent at her job and that is why I go to her. I’m don’t want to live with her but I am going to trust her to do the best for my eye care and she absolutely does that!

Love Dr. Brown!
Dr. Brown has been my child’s eye doctor since he was a toddler. She’s fantastic! She’s very talented when it comes to working with kids and she’s always very prompt and patient. She is very direct and always explains everything in terms that the kids can understand. I would absolutely recommend her to everyone needing an optometrist for their kids.

A Professional Who Understands
Dr. Brown is a professional who knows how to connect and speak with her patients. She understands the perspective of the patient and gives tough love when needed. I have struggled for a long time to find a doctor who is willing to take the time to understand the unique needs of my situation and I am thrilled to have found someone willing to help me. Would recommend anyone needing her skills to reach out.

Excellent
The lady at check in & out was very nice & courteous The lady that got me ready for Dr Brown was so nice I can’t remember her name but she said she usually helps Dr Raflo. But she made me feel so comfortable. My eyes are VERY complicated, this lady took her time & was very confident & thorough. My visit with Dr Brown went great like always, she takes her time & explaines everything where I can understand. No complaints!
