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.

Confident caring concerned.
The time she spent with making sure I understand what was needed and how the procedure would be done. Friendly and professional yet personally.

I had to wait 3 months for an appointment with Dr. Carballo. She brought up several issues with my eyes and suggested seeing and ophthalmologist as well as providing me with information on several for my consideration. She was knowledgeable and personable. Other than the long wait for an appointment, I was pleased with my visit.

The hardest part was scheduling the first appointment, it took more than three months to be seen. However, once that was done sending notices and information for the appointment was excellent. Also, the ability to schedule my follow up appointment was easy and readily available.
