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.

This guy is hard to accept!
Unfortunately have experienced many eye problems. More unfortunate, was the mistake of setting up an appointment with Mr. Sneed in Traverse City, associated Retinal Consultants.. That said, I have seen many doctors in my days and this guy ranks the worse. It is very important to all with eye problems to consider your eyes closely with a reliable doctor. There are many good doctors in Traverse.

Rushed
Felt very rushed and not confident in his diagnosis. Went to a different MD and getting the correct treatment plan. Didn’t even introduce himself when coming into the exam room.

Dr. Sneed was very helpful explaining my procedures and the outcome of my surgery (vitrectomy) which was excellent in both eyes. My experience was much better than I had feared and it was reassuring to have such a confident and caring surgeon as Dr. Sneed.

Dr. Sneed was very patient, calming, and encouraging during my eye lid surgery. He explained what was going to happen and talked with me during the procedure. I would definitely go back to him and highly recommend him.

I would not go back to see Dr. Sneed. He did not take the time to even review my photos or provide any answers. It was a very busy day and I felt like I was on a conveyer belt, without anyone really concerned with my issues.
